  1. @evacide Oh lolz....

    I just love this. Elon's the man. Either get in fricken' line with MY COMPANY's vision or GTFO!

    Just ask #Bob FOSS he saw it too 😛

    If any CEO didn't run their company that way they shouldn't be running their company.

    Thank you for putting out that query - short answer is...

    Yes. You definitely have a use case here, but first, being just a little familiar with your product I'd like to welcome you to the #Fediverse even though your arrival coincided with the November Rain phenomenon that was much todo about nothing, and in the end, most Twitugees simply returned there after creating accounts here - I'm glad you stuck around! You're product is FOSS, and this is a #FOSS world here in the Fediverse, so it makes sense, this being your natural home and where people can expect to find you :)

    Ever since I decided to ditch the proprietary Evernote, I've been using a #Vim Plugin that uploads my buffer to a Gist in an easy peasy way - it would be really kewl if I had a way to send (encrypted or unencrypted) notes to myself as a Fediverse DM, or share some of them with a select group of others in such a manner - Maybe (if it's textual in nature) actual clips I've saved. The graphics, well, if they are uploaded as a graphic that will work too, and they can even be sent to #Pixelfed accounts (if there is a graphics or movie file).

    So, you're concerned about having to setup a centralized server or something that your userbase can be recognized on or something? Perhaps like a relay of sorts? I don't think that's the way to go actually. It sounds like a lot of heartache that might not even surivive beyond the intial proof of concept is rolled out - Spam being just one reason that makes the likelihood of failure a distinct possibility.

    Here's what I think you can try doing, and it will alleviate any grandiose plans you may have been kicking around - Keep it in the client. A feature mechanism that either lets you clip and post it as an #ActivityPub NOTE to a user's actual instance (server) where they already have an account - You can collect the user's Fediverse account credentials and use that to post to their own existing account - no additional infrastructure is required on your part.

    Those posts can be a single post to oneself (a private Fediverse DM to themselves) or it can include a list of recipients - just like any other post you can make.

    This will also afford you the absolute maximum in #Spam_control too! You don't have to accept any registrations obo your Fediverse features - you're merely allowing people with existing Fediverse accounts to enter their credentials into your client and then your users make the decision as to whether they want to use your existing store or their Fediverse account to publish the clips to their stores there.

    Since you've been around here for a while now, I'm sure you've realized how severely limited mastodon is when it comes to ways you can exploit the existing capabilities in the Fediverse - I've already mentioned Pixelfed, but there's a lot of other platforms that support HTTP signatures necessary for backfills and e2ee constructs; the support for BBCode and/or Markdown; post containing text with character counts greater than the paltry 500 characters that masto can muster, #LaTEX (actually, only Misskey and Firefish support that at this time AFAIK); local only posts (shared only with those who have accounts on the same instance), and a host of other unsupported features in masopub.

    I appreciate that you made the effort to address this as an ActivityPub and Fediverse capability, and not simply, "yet another mastodon branded feature". Especially when mastodon won't be able to take advantage of many of the advanced features you already offer that other more capable Fediverse platforms can make use of :)

    Platforms like #Friendica, #Firefish, #Mitra, #Hubzilla, #SocialHome, #Soapbox, #Peertube, Pleroma, #Epicyon, #Castopod, #WriteFreely, #Quanta, #Drupal and even #WordPress - those latter three have potentially, especially ambitious use cases with clips and notes being able to be actually published on platforms already built for long form or 'blobs' to be pushed to them. Hubzilla, #Streams, and Friendica have special features to accommodate your products notes too :)

    If you focus on adding support for people to enter their Fediverse account credentials, or multiple accounts like #Takahe and #Fedilab and #Misskey support, Then those are the servers you need right there! The spam problem remains as it is with the particular instances, since they control the new account registrations.

    There's also the rapid adoption of #smolweb and single-user focused Fediverse platforms too, such as:

    - MicroBlogPub
    - Tapir
    - Bovine
    - And of course, any platform, now matter how heavy or resource intensive can be deployed as a smolweb or single-user instance (even the klunky kludgey mastodon). And speaking of which, there are several popular forks that don't have these limitations that are very popular like #Hometown and #Glitch-soc, Etc.

    There may even be some use cases for #Lemmy and #Kbin too, as link/discussion boards too - perhaps posting from a users vault/store to those platforms? There's a lot of different possibilities but ActivityPub can open up a huge market for you while at the same time Fediverse is exposed to large numbers of people who will discover that they too may have a good use case to adopt for themselves a Fediverse account :)

    tl;dr: Basically, yes! there's a huge use case for your thoughts there - and if you're reading this on a Mitra, #Pleroma, Soapbox, #Akkoma, Firefish, Friendica, Hubzilla, or Misskey server, you'll see some very pretty formatting in Markdown - if you're reading this on a regular mastodon server (not one of the really good and popular forks), then... not so much - but at least mastodon does degrade Markdown and HTML somewhat gracefully :)

    Well I hope that helps and do feel free to reach out to me via my contact methods listed in my profile or in the Fediverse-City Matrix room, and I'm sure that we can get a few of some of the more prominent Fediverse platform devs to round-table with you for some wire framing sessions.

    I'm confident that you'll find a lot of support in your endeavor to achieve this initiative.

    Well I hope that helps. Enjoy!

  5. I've seen this on four social networks in the #Fediverse now in just over a week - #ActivityPub, #ZOT, #nostr, and #Movim/XMPP. These memes are going around, but what about those privacy disrespecting, deprecated legacy silos like #Faceplant, #Twitter, and #InstaSPAM or #Reddit - Why is it that we're preaching to the choir instead of to the sinners of the #SunnyVale_Syndrome?

    Go forth, save those poor souls over on the silos, Tell them that they're pork bellies. Muahahaha!

  6. To die in a ditch, alone, bleeding and bludgeoned - a demise where no hand of another is found to hold yours at the very end.

    And yet, as silently as the #Wildebeest passsed, without any fanfare, it is celebrated by most Fedizens - with Burgers 🍔 and beers 🍻 🍺 .

    To die the death of such a loser without notice is comical - and even though the news has travelled slow, it reverberates through the #Fediverse without sympathy from anyone:

    Lovely #Vaxen 🖖

    Prolly nowhere near enough to me to bite, but wondering what other gems you might be considering divesting yourself from.

    Big fan boi here of 70's #minis and #micros (and early 80's).

    Thanks to @whoosh for boosting!

  9. @tallship That is an interesting and depressing thought. I was thinking of selling the #Molekule air purifiers on Craigslist and getting some old fashioned replacements. Although fire season has started so the alternatives may be sold out.

  10. @ChrisWellens

    The short answer is that, "It's not about the air purifier - it's about getting you to install something that tracks and quantifies you, and data mines your privacy."

    In this case, you're not getting something for free - like Faceplant or InstaSPAM, you're actually paying money for the exclusive privilege of making yourself the product.

    On another note, I feel your pain. I was almost incinerated in the #August_Complex fires in #Humboldt.

    Thanks Mike! Stellar work :)

    And I've also announced it here in the #Fediverse_City room too:
    matrix.to/#/!hvqLOjQUcosdvoXNr

    There's always questions and discussions surrounding Streams, #Hubzilla, #Zap, and #Friendica going on there too, as well as the internetworking between Diaspora/ZOT/ActivityPub protocols.

    Everyone is always welcome, but you're especially invited anytime.

    Kindest regards,

    Bradley

    Why.... Yes of course they do - Duh!

    Empowered by you to do so.

    So what are you complaining about?

    i.e., You brought this upon yourself and wanted it to happen - it is what it is and this is the mess you made of it.

    Just be happy you got what you wanted 🎅 for 🌲 Christmas ☃️ coz some folks don't have a google to act in their best interests 🦌

    There's a few that are good, but regular #OBS is, IMHO, the very best and what I usually recommend that people run on their desktops. They went to #Flatpak a couple of years back to simplify and standardize installations, and there's a Windows version too if you're into that kind of kink.

    I should also mention #Prism_Live but it's a Windows only thang. #Android too, I guess, and is easy to #multistream:

  14. @ericjmorey @apps @mitra

    No, not really at all. sounds like you're looking for something like #Hometown or #Glitch-soc -masto forks.

    #Mitra is a publishing platform, but it will perform equally well for just #shitposting too if that's all someone is interested in, although I think one would still be better served by masto for that kind of #meaningless_nonsense (it's purpose built for that).

    Better still, Twitter!, ("X" now?) I just don't bother keeping up with those toys.

    One might say, "Nothing to see here folks, run along home now.", or perhaps, that statement is only true because it has been blatantly obvious and in the face of all of us directly involved since the very beginning.

    I urge everyone to read this thread.

    I've also posted it to the official #bsky-fediverse (Matrix & Discord) as well as any discussions in the #Fediverse_City room at matrix.to/#/#fediverse-city:ma

    Diesel tank accidentally filled with water, engine stalled, too close to shore to sail out of danger.

    tallship wrote the following post Fri, 21 Jul 2023 22:25:52 +0200 The big news here isn't the headline, it's what's buried in the article itself - an article that links and clings to non #Fediverse, deprecated silo resources like Twitter to pad the results of cooperative studies between these two universities.

    Of particular note is an apparent broken promise to #open_source the technology on one hand, and the infinite power that #FOSS can play when millions of eyes are on the prize with cooperative development.
