Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #iceshrimp, aggregated by home.social.

  1. @DavidM_yeg @Dennis What more is needed?

    A full visual description of the settings, the people (of course, avoiding their gender and describing their skin tone rather than their race), their outfits, the surroundings?

    The title of the film, including an explanation what this film is, who made it, what it is about, when it was released, who the characters are and who the actors are?

    Regardless of neither of this belonging into the alt-text because information that is neither available in the message text nor plainly visible to sighted users in the image does not belong into the alt-text? Because there are people who cannot access alt-text?

    And, pray tell, how is all this supposed to fit in 512 characters or fewer so that Misskey, Calckey, Firefish, Iceshrimp-JS, Sharkey, CherryPick and the other Misskey forks won't discard the alt-text?

  2. Vielleicht sollten wir Bewohner der föderierten Planeten des #Fediverse den Menschen, die #neuhier sind, etwas erklären:
    #DasFediverseIstMehr als Mastodon.

    In den unendlichen Weiten der digitalen Unabhängigkeit befinden sich so viele Möglichkeiten , das für jede*n etwas dabei ist. Das kann natürlich
    #Mastodon sein, aber auch:
    Microblogging Planeten
    #Akkoma
    #GoToSocial
    #Iceshrimp
    #Misskey
    #Pleroma
    #Sharkey
    Die Macroblogging Planeten
    #diaspora*
    #Friendica
    #Hubzilla
    #(streams)
    Die Fotografie Planeten
    #Pixelfed
    #Vernissage
    Die Publishing Planeten
    #Drupal
    #Ghost
    #Plume
    #WordPress
    #WriteFreely
    Die Video & Live Planeten
    #Loops
    #Owncast
    #Peer Tube
    Die Audio & Podcasts.Planeten
    #Castopod
    #Funkwhale
    Der Kalender & Events Planet
    #Mobilizon
    Der Foren & Diskussionen Planet
    Lemmy
    Und der Bücher Planet
    #BookWyrm

    Eine knappe Übersicht gibt es hier:
    https://fediversum.info/fediverse-software-und-dienste/

    Vielleicht sollten wir Bewohner der föderierten Planeten, aber auch berichten, warum wir unseren Planeten bewohnen und was wir an ihm lieben.
    Und wie spannend wäre es zu erfahren, was wie es ist seinen ganz eigenen Planeten zu haben und was man tun muss um ihn zu erschaffen und sich bei Bedarf Mitbewohner zu suchen.
    Das Fediverse ist so spannend. Wir sollten davon erzählen, damit die neuen Fediversebewohner neugierig werden und den perfekten Platz für sich finden können. Und auch wir alteingesessenen
    #Fedinauten lernen immer noch dazu.

    Also lasst uns unsere Geschichten erzählen, über unsere Heimatplaneten berichten.

    Unter den Hashtags
    #DasFediverseIstMehr #WirSindFedi #Fediliebe fange ich gleich mit einem ersten Post an. Und ihr, Fedinaut*innen der Planetenrunde?

  3. @[email protected] It's weird how folks miss that it's literally one or two people doing most of the day-to-day on #Iceshrimp and #Sharkey. Folks keep wanting the feature set of something much bigger. Kind of sad to see how many folks keep wanting fedi bling but BIPOC efforts to increase fedi safety get silence from same kind of folks willing to silence Sharkey over their technical peeve.

    Make it make sense.

  4. It's interesting sitting here on an old version of #Calckey seeing someone on #Mastodon server telling their fellow user that posting to unlisted will opt-out of #search when I can see Unlisted posts in my antennas quite easily [though I believe this has been rightly rectified in the newest versions of #Firefish / #Iceshrimp but need to confirm]. Being hidden from the Explore tab on Mastodon is not the same as being unsearchable across the fediverse. Frankly, there's little understanding even among admins across the #fediverse about what's a Mastodon / Mastodon API function that is federated to other Mastodon servers but doesn't translate well outside of Mastodon on other #ActivityPub connected platforms like #Misskey and it's forks, #Hubzilla and #Friendica, or rapidly growing platforms like #Lemmy and #Kbin. Kbin also scrapes posts from across the fediverse and puts them into its own magazines.

    Unfortunately simple, up-to-date documentation doesn't really exist to explain the
    realities of federation vs what your admin said was the reality. AP was not built with privacy in mind, and 'security through obscurity' was mostly a Mastodon thing from when folks thought either the Mastoverse was almost the dark web, or the whole fediverse [which has never been the case], and Google et al weren't interested in scraping it.

    Unfortunately we have a cadre of devs across all fedi platforms who'll give glowing lip-service to both the fedi and ActivityPub histories of being built by queer or other minority identities but still won't work on giving folks the granular
    #privacy and #safety controls that weren't included in those protocols, and whose feature roadmaps now just look like bird site 2.0 funded by the milquetoast liberals in political tech who provide their seed money.

    Beyond Mastodon and GoToSocial, every other fediverse project treats posting to public as opting in to search and indexing. Indeed, this is pretty much how the ActivityPub protocol handles such too.

  5. Tbh, I'm on a proactively moderated server that has preemptively kept a lot of the worst folks from being able to reach us queers here, and the feedback from a handful of black users here is that #blahajzone has also been generally been harassment free in comparison to other servers they've been on.

    Imo, it's actually not to hard as a queer or trans person to find
    #servers on the #fediverse that will protect you from harassment, but that it is harder to find servers that will also protect indigenous, black, Asian users from racist harassment. And too many queer white folks get a free pass for ignorance tbh, a privilege that many of us have had for far too long.

    It's much the same on
    #Bluesky where I haven't been harassed for being #queer and trans - again there's large communities and plenty of allies - but anti-black racism has been in the spotlight again recently and the devs called out for lagging behind on safety and moderation features that bigots exploit for harassment campaigns.

    Far too many fediverse projects are led by men, mostly white men, who are lionised, promoted and financed by another layer of mostly white men. They ultimately get the veto on minority protections.

  6. I hope #Hajkey keeps developing for blahaj.zone and similar communities, particularly the long sought after #FediverseSafety features that never seem to arrive on the #Fediverse and become more important as greater adoption occurs and user culture changes - like the amount of transphobic users that Lemmy has brought here and the dev bros think this is progress. #Firefish #Calckey #IceShrimp @[email protected]
