@Umbertogaetani One thing that surprised me: I don’t see Roth et al.’s #HST work on #Europa’s #plume/water-vapor signatures cited here, nor Saur et al. or much from the Europa #SpacePlasma community.
Not fatal for their thermo-fluid model I guess, but given the broader claim about limited #ocean–#surface exchange, it feels like a gap in the framing.

Sowohl für https://plume.stage.anoxinon.de/ als auch https://writefreely.stage.anoxinon.de/ sind die Registrierungen erst mal abgeschaltet. Beide hatten ein starkes Bot Probleme und keine Option die Registrierung auf ein Genehmigungsverfahren umzustellen.

Plume is not a single website, but an entire interconnected, yet independent network of what we call instances. You write content from your own instance, but anyone else on any other Plume instance can enjoy your stories too.

“A #telescope in #Chile has captured evidence of the impact caused by part of a SpaceX #Falcon9 rocket slamming into the moon while travelling at 8,690km/h (5,400mph).
The European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope observed “spectral lines” – a colourful illustration of the #sodium and #lithium gas – in the plume of #LunarDust stirred up by the impact.
The #ESO telescope recorded these “chemical fingerprints” of the plume, which were visible for five to 10 minutes, the #observatory said. The #plume measured a few tens of kilometres in size, according to #CarlSchmidt, an astronomer from #BostonUniversity’s Center for #SpacePhysics.”

@Chao-c'I believe there was always the best interest of Mastodon developers to enable their users to engage with content like PeerTube videos, WordPress blog posts, and so on.
WordPress has always been the tricky one out of these.
On the one hand, there was the promise to be able to follow WordPress blogs from Mastodon without resorting to RSS or Atom. And there was the promise to WordPress users to increase their subscribers by the folks in the Fediverse.
On the other hand, there was Mastodon's refusal to render Article-type objects such as those that WordPress sent. And I'm not even talking about rendering them without utterly defacing them. AFAIR, Automattic wasn't really pleased to see Mastodon only linking to WordPress blog posts. (By the way, the *omas and *keys show WordPress blog posts with no problems, even though they consider themselves microblogging apps, too.)You also mention, that Hubzilla was first application ready to deliberately block other platforms... and then accuse Mastodon of doing the same
Not Hubzilla. (streams) and Forte were the first to have the User Agent Filter and even that not before September, 2024. FedUp, which locks out everything that's incompatible with enclosed conversations, wasn't there before 2025. Neither of these two was backported to Hubzilla.
All that Hubzilla has is ActivityPub being optional. And even that comes from ActivityPub still being an add-on plus the potential desire of Hubzilla users to have a 100% nomadic channel with nothing non-nomadic interfering. Mario and Harald do see it as a potential drawbridge. But it's mostly a historical relic from the times when Mike dreamt of the Grid. In fact, Hubzilla still has Friendica's "federate with everything that moves" attitude deep inside its DNA.
Also, if anyone is interested in blocking the non-Mastodon Fediverse, or large parts of it, from Mastodon, it's individual Mastodon users who have never gotten over their first message from Calckey or Friendica or whatever. The Mastodon devs, well, probably not so much. They want to make the non-Mastodon Fediverse look as bad as they can get away with, but they can't afford locking it out entirely.
I mean, I've actually taken into consideration submitting a feature request in Mastodon's GitHub repository for one or various means of excluding the non-Mastodon Fediverse from individual accounts or even entire servers, if only to see the comments. But I don't think the devs would even only take building that option into consideration, also because it might anger certain other actors like Ghost, Flipboard, Automattic...But there is no reason to block entire platforms.
Mike Macgirvin will disagree with you.
In fact, almost everyone will disagree with you if you tell them that one of the platforms that can be blocked is Threads.Myself, I would like to learn Rust and perhaps join some ActivityPub project in Rust, which would not be so strictly focused on being Xitter clone and would support more media options, would display more than 4 image attachments, would be very user configurable, be aware of status size limits of platforms of mentioned users, etc.
Plume is written in Rust. As it so happens, its development is, let's say, dormant. I mean, it outclasses WriteFreely in a whole bunch of ways, be it because it has its own built-in image file space, be it because it supports likes and comments, be it because its Web UI is more straight-forward than WriteFreely's. But its devs don't have any time for it, they won't have any for the foreseeable future, and they recommend everyone who is interested in Plume to join WriteFreely instead.
Maybe they can use an additional main dev who can forward the project (along their plans anyway), merge 3rd-party pull requests and such. It'd be a shame to see it go to waste.

Hey Followerpower! If you were to start some blog in 2026, would you rather go for #ghost, #writefreely, #bonfire or #plume, or good old #wordpress? Just for some occasional thoughts, maybe some series on stuff, no mailing, seo, stuff required. They all have some connection to the #fediverse right now.
Bonus: Some cheap hosting tips?

I wondered why my CDN usage was a little spicy this month, it turns out two new #plume instances recently discovered mine 🎉

@jonu Reine Fedi-Blogs als Alternative: #WriteFreely, #Plume, #Ghost (hat inzwischen ActivityPub).

@[email protected] So hier der Post zum neuem Server Setup. Bei #plume geht das Co-Autoren Thema leider noch nicht, daher erst mal so.

Hat jemand mal eine der Fediverse-Blogging-Plattformen wie #WriteFreely oder #Plume ausprobiert? Oder noch besser: selber betrieben?
Oder hat mal jemand Meh ausprobiert?
https://github.com/splitbrain/mehIch hätte halt gern eine Seite, auf die ich (selten) lange Texte schreiben und dann im Fediverse weiter diskutieren kann.
