#nobots — Public Fediverse posts

when’s a good time to put up an introduction post

Time of day? Day of week?

I’m in central daylight time in North America if that helps you calculate

#Introduction #FediIntro #nobots

@iura_iui タグつけるとブーストしてくるやつですー。tags.pubをドメインブロックすると通知は来なくなるです。（この辺は細かい仕様が変わっている可能性もあるかも…）

プロフィールに #NoTagsPub #NoBots #NoBot のどれかを入れるとブースト自体を拒否できます。後ろの2つは汎用的なbot拒否タグなので、tags.pub以外にもこのタグに対応しているbot系を拒否できます。

@alice consent is truly a complicated concept

Hey, Evan, this shit isn't okay. You and your bots don't have permission to share my communities outside of Fedi (or at all).

Again, I didn't even know you were doing this, because you *didn't ask*—you just assumed you had the right.

I know I blocked you and defederated all your projects already, so maybe one of your friends or bots can let you know you should delete these (and any other @alice, @AltAfterDark, @[email protected], @[email protected], and @[email protected] posts).

#ConsentMatters #NoBots #NoTagsPub

Bots should not interact with accounts unless they are mentioned or followed.

Exception to moderation bots, if any.

#NoBots

@alice @evan not a question for Alice unless they want to (you've spent enough energy on this issue for the day, I think), but what's the difference between this and bots like @blogpost who auto boost tagged posts?

I mean, for one, tagpush only has a small number of bots for (i assume?) hand picked tags worth following.

I'm just trying to understand what this tags.pub thing is. It seems if there's a bot on fedi that's not respecting a simple #NoBots tag, that's a problem. Idk, I'm coming to this a bit late as I've been offline today, just trying to parse what the difference here is (or perhaps I've overlooked something, and the tagpush bot is also a problem?)

"Add this tag to your profile to opt out of our shitty service" is *not* a valid way to run your bot/app/etc.

On my Pinned Profiles post but repeating it here:

I DO NOT follow / allow follows from Blank Profiles.

@vijarvinen Laita profiiliselostukseesi #NoBots Sillä sain itse ne katoamaan. @rolle neuvoi.. Siitä ollut monta avausta.

I pushed two changes to #tagspub today to help with opting out.

The first is if you add the #NoTagsPub or #NoBot or #NoBots hashtags in your profile to opt out. tags.pub was caching profile data for 30 minutes by default, which meant that if you tested right after you added the tag, it would still boost. Now, it's down to the default cache length for Mastodon, 3 minutes. You still have to wait a few minutes after a change, but it's shorter.

Dank umfangreicher Arbeit von @oldkid und seiner Bereitschaft seine Erkenntnisse unter Administratoren zu teilen könnte in der Praxis eine Möglichkeit getestet werden.

Aus einer technischen Analyse des tags.pub-Quellcodes ergibt sich ein interessanter Hinweis:

Nach aktuellem Kenntnisstand sollen die Kennzeichnungen #NoBot, #NoBots oder #NoTagsPub in der Profilbeschreibung von tags.pub respektiert werden. Wer nicht möchte, dass öffentliche Beiträge über tags.pub verarbeitet werden, könnte diese Kennzeichnungen im eigenen Profil ergänzen.

Das ersetzt keine grundsätzliche Diskussion über Sinn und Auswirkungen solcher Dienste, gibt betroffenen Nutzern aber zumindest eine konkrete Handlungsmöglichkeit.

Er wäre hilfreich, wenn entsprechende Ergebnisse mitgeteilt werden. Das Ganze stellt ein Test dar und ist keine Garantie auf Abhilfe.

@AlienJay Aus der FAQ des Servers:
If your server is providing data to tags.pub, and you don't want your content to be boosted by tags.pub accounts, you can add the #NoTagsPub hashtag to your account bio. (If you've already got a #NoBots or #NoBot hashtag in your account bio, we'll also skip any boosts.)

I put together a list of accounts that are based on the #WestCoast for an early #FollowFriday! Let me know if you want to be added to the list [or removed].

@rolle @milesizdead Laitoin esittelyyni sen #NoBots ja sillä loppui kuin seinään.

@catsalad

i felt a great disturbance in the fediverse, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

#nobots #goblinMode

“Goblin mode” has been chosen by the public as the 2022 Oxford word of the year. The term, which refers to “a type of behaviour which is unapologetically self-indulgent, lazy, slovenly, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations”, has become the first word of the year to have been decided by public vote.

@rolle Kokeilin tuota #NoBots :ia profiilikuvaukseeni, ei herännyt eloon sinisenä.. Mikäköhän kikka siihenkin tarvitaan?

@rolle Minulla on rajatut resurssit ollakseni yhteydessä ihan koko maailmaan. Laitan ehkä tuon #NoBots profiiliini, jos se vapauttaa minut boteista.

Olen ihan liian vanha näihin bottikisoihin..

@pipanella_56 Tämä ominaisuus on näppärä, kun voi tilata seuraamansa hashtagit ilmoituksina. Mutta ymmärrän, että voi olla myös ärsyttävä. Tags.pub tekee kaikista maailman hashtageista omat bottitilinsä, joten sitä on mahdoton estää. Lisää tietoa: https://tags.pub

Omaan profiiliin kuvaukseen kannattaa laittaa #NoBots tai #NoBot jos ei halua olla bottien kanssa tekemisissä.

From the Wikipedia article on Telegram:

"In 2026, Telegram began to include generative AI features in its app, which use open-source models running in Telegram's confidential compute network, Cocoon."

Go to Cocoon's website (cocoon.org) and it says:

• GPU owners mine TON by powering the network
• App developers plug into low-cost AI compute
• Users enjoy AI with full privacy and confidentiality
• Telegram fuels demand and hype for Cocoon

Yuck.

#Telegram #Cocoon #AI #NoBots #NoBot #NoAI

KDE Plasma 6.6 introduces the ability to extract text from screenshots taken using Spectacle, KDE's default screenshot-taking tool, similar to Snipping Tool in Windows.

In some Linux distributions with KDE as the default desktop, Spectacle sometimes doesn't show the "Extract text" button that enables this. Descriptions on how to fix the issue in OpenSUSE, NixOS and Arch are easily discoverable on the Web, but for Devuan (and presumably Debian) fixes are much harder to find.

I'm running Devuan "freia" (based on Debian testing). In a terminal, run:

sudo apt install tesseract-ocr tesseract-libs

Type y when prompted to install all dependencies and restart Spectacle if it's already running. Voilà. For me this worked; your mileage may vary.

Warum muss ICH tätig werden, damit MEIN Content nicht ungefragt verwendet wird?

Hier wird was ganz gewaltig verdreht!

Und ja, ich habe jetzt - wegen dieser Pest - #nobots ergänzt und diese verschissene Instanz geblockt.
