#microfedi — Public Fediverse posts

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

  1. @[email protected] I miss Google+ circles. The circles feature was WAY better than the lists feature on Facey.

    I'd love to see something similar on
    #Mastodon #Calckey etc, the #microblogging end of the #Fediverse

    #microfedi

  2. John Mastodon believed in a decentralised #Fediverse - not a huge silos, a neglectful dictator, and a bunch of sycophant influencers. Enough, enough of Eugen Musk!

    #JohnMastodon #EugenMusk #Mastodon #Akkoma #Pleroma #Calckey #microfedi

  3. Firstly, #Mastodon ecosystem =/ #Fediverse, please don't collapse them together; and secondly, dude raves about products improvements that Mastodon should have, but no acknowledgment that many of these features are already across the Fediverse, and wrt #microblogging #microfedi instances he could take a look at #Calckey's rich features and its development path?

    Perhaps it reflects the experience of those for whom mastodon.social is a large part of their
    #Fediverse experience?

  4. Looking forward to seeing #Calckey #Channels, currently local-only, become federated with other instances. In the meantime they make a good local-only #Lemmy substitute - and without requiring sign up. #forums #fediverse #feditips #microfedi

  5. I've just started playing around with #Channels which look like they are instance-locked #forums on the #Calckey platform. Cool thing about them is you can #follow them and posts will appear in your home #timeline just like when following another user's account.

    Here's some initial screenshots so you can see what I'm talking about.
    #fediverse #feditips #microfedi

    1. Channels are found in the
    #Calckey sidebar.
    2. Here's a list of channels on
    #blahajzone.
    3. Inside "Jo Channel" on
    #blahajzone. Anyone from the instance can post, posts are #localonly.
    4. If you
    #follow the channel, posts appear in your home & local timelines like so.

  6. From my earlier post:

    We really need a broad discussion about #fediverse growing pains and ways the #microfedi services can grow without all the current dramas that are coming to the fore and distressing users.

  7. So I guess I've forgone my #Introduction post for a while now, and @ada has shamed me into doing it finally!

    My name is Kaity (she/her), and I currently reside in Gubbi Gubbi country in what is otherwise called Burpengary, Queensland in Australia.

    I'm a-47 year old woman from Australia. I'm
    #Trans of the #TransFemme variety. I'm wife to my spouse @internutter, girlfriend to @ada, mother to 2 kids in their late teens/early twenties and owned by 3 cats now.

    I'm a
    #TechWizardess when I'm not otherwise being a #SocialButterfly.

    My current focus is on improving the software (
    #Hajkey, a derivative of #Calckey ​:blahaj_zone:​❤️​:calckey:​) that @ada and I use to run our #microfedi instance #BlahajZone.

    ​:blahaj_zone:​

    It's totally
    #Fetch! As a smaller LGBTIAQ+ friendly and focussed instance, it's more intimate and we're welcoming to all friends of #Blahaj.

    ​:Blobhaj_Hug_Blahaj:​

    You should totally come and check it out if you're looking for an instance to join or migrate to.

    Other than that, I work as a Team Manager/Tech Lead for a small software engineering team in the field of Innovation and R&D for a large UK-based multinational company, and then in my offtime I try to make the world a better place.

    When I'm not busy casting my technological magery, I'm looking to go out and have fun, go spend time with my friends, do some shopping, act as a matchmaker and just generally having fun being me.

    ​:Blobhaj_Innocent:​

    I love spending time on this fantastic community that we are all building here on the fediverse and the friends I have made here. I can't believe this wholesome place is here, and I'm so glad to be a part of it, and especially that
    you are here to be a part of it with us.

  12. @ada
    @activitypub

    I think I have at least enough FB friends interested well enough to set something up. It'll probably be Frendica (private communities are a *must*) but how to actually do it without all the admins be techies is a bit of a head scratcher
    (I've the skills, even ran a diaspora* for a couple years)

    #activitypub #Mastodon #calckey #friendica #lemmy #Fediverse #microfedi

  13. #Fediverse Observer is an alternative way to #FindAServer than #joinmastodon which only lists vanilla instances that use the #Mastodon API. Mastodon forks, #Misskey, #Calckey, #Pleroma based #microfedi instances as well as other Fediverse platforms such as #Hubzilla & #Friendica are all easily searchable. #migrate #migration https://fediverse.observer/

  14. How to migrate from mastodon.lol to blahaj.zone

    1) Create your new account at blahaj.zone
    2) Go to the migration settings on blahaj.zone They can be found at Settings >> Other Settings >> Migration.

    3) In the "move to this account from an older account" field, enter in your mastodon.lol account (example
    @[email protected]) and save

    4) Go to mastodon.lol migration settings. I think the URL for mastodon.lol is
    https://mastodon.lol/settings/migration

    5) Fill in the handle of your blahaj.zone account (example:
    @[email protected]) and then your mastodon.lol password).

    6) Press "Move Followers" and the magic will happen

  15. blahaj.zone is a #trans -run #calckey instance with strong #fediblock rules against Nazis, TERFs, sexual exploitation, etc., but permissive in terms of (CWed) NSFW content [my 🔞 alt is @[email protected] 😅]. #nsfw #lewdposting #adultcontent #mastodonlol #migration #microfedi #blahajzone

  16. Finally seeing what's behind mastodon.lol blowing up. Holy shit Nathan. 🤦‍♀️

    If you're looking for a new home blahaj.zone is a small trans-friendly
    #calckey instance run by #trans women @ada and @supakaity #mastodonlol #Mastodon #migration #microfedi #blahajzone

  17. Hey mastodon.lol folks, blahaj.zone is a small instance that is open for signups. We run on #calckey which is has a different UI than #Mastodon and some other differences. We also have seamless migration from Mastodon instances built in, just like you're used to. Hope some of you might join us. Jo xx (formerly @[email protected])

  18. @fediversereport @nicfab Of note, the ability to find and follow users on lemmy is only very new! Previously you could only find and follow lemmy groups from #microfedi platforms, but with the upgrade to Lemmy 0.17, you can find and follow users too
  19. @[email protected] Also, emoji are largely cross platform compatible, so any platform that supports emoji will see your emoji reaction. Most of the #microfedi platforms are emoji aware, with the notable exceptions of Mastodon and Friendica)

  20. Nuova istanza di punta di Calckey e nuova versione di Calckey

    Calckey ha appena rilasciato la versione 13.1, ma molto più interessante, coincide con una nuova istanza di punta per Calckey, calckey.social !

  21. I just want to take a moment to talk about how awesome this post here is. Not the content, but what it represents.

    When I made the post, I was seeking some assistance on some backend admin settings for our new Friendica instance. Using Friendica, I posted my question in to the fediverse as I would on Calckey or Mastodon or any other
    #microfedi platform. But due to the way Friendica handles ActivityPub groups, I was able to tag the friendica lemmy group (think federated reddit) and post was published there too!

    All from the one post!

    It's not perfect. Calckey or Mastodon don't work well with ActivityPub groups yet, so this wouldn't have been possible from them, but that will come with time as the platforms mature and the kinks get ironed out.

    But even this, just working on Friendica, this is a taste of what the future can look like. This is a platform agnostic internet. This is what the fediverse is built for! Fuck it's exciting!

  22. I've spent a lot of time over the last few months playing around with various fediverse platforms and apps... I feel like I should be doing something with this knowledge. Like, a feature comparison, or comparative reviews or something...

    I'm not sure how to go about it though...

    Maybe a fediverse enabled blog service that I post reviews on? I mean, that would give me another platform to review too 😀

    I don't know what to do with this information

  24. If any of my followers are trying out other #Fediverse / #microfedi platforms that support #ActivityPub and want a follower, then add me here or at [email protected] (my under-utilised #Hubzilla account).

  25. @[email protected] I can see it in my feed on a #Calckey instance, which doesn't run the #Mastodon API, but really isn't Friendica, Hubzilla or the other #Fediverse platforms.

    Shout out to the other
    #notmastodon #microfedi instances on #akkoma #pleroma #misskey etc

  26. The blahaj.zone splash page that appears on opening while the UI loads has been updated and it's clear it's the work of @ada 😆 She absolutely loves her fetch and #microfedi Anyway, it made me giggle.

    #calckey #blahaj

  27. @[email protected] So, for the #microfedi apps (mastodon, calckey, misskey, akkoma etc) I only have a single account that I use.

    But I also maintain accounts on bookwyrm, pixelfed and lemmy accounts as well. They are much more tightly focused, but because of federation, I can boost/share/reply to content from those instances bringing it in to the
    #microfedi section of the fediverse if I need to
