#project92 — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #project92, aggregated by home.social.

  1. 2023 was a good year of #running for me, since I ran more kilometers than the year before.
    But I still ran less kilometers than e.g. 2020 and 2021 (>1,400km).

    For 2024 I expect to be back in the range of >1,400km since my ongoing #project92 requires a high amount of fitness.

  2. Avec le #Fedipact j’espère que le #fediverse en sortira grandi.
    Chaque instance est libre de faire ce qu’elle veut.
    Mais bloquer les instances du #project92 #Threads est une chose saine.
    Ouvrir la porte à ces datavöres du #web toxique c’est entretenir des risques sur la #privacy.
    L’Histoire a déjà montré la capacité d’entreprises à appliquer le 3E : « Embrace, extend, and extinguish », comme Google avec XMPP.
    Dégageons Facebook. Et Microsoft. Et Amazon, Xiaomi, Tencent… :anar: :framasoft:

  3. meta has been BUSY behind the scenes

    "I participated in a meeting titled “Meta’s Threads Interoperating in the Fediverse Data Dialogue” at Meta in San Francisco yesterday..."

  4. After more than 2 weeks of work, the official #lemmy instance of utopify.org is online: lemmy.utopify.org/

    It took way to much time, but I wanted to be sure it is the right thing and that everything works even better than before in the old utopify.org guild chat on #habitica And after a lots of struggles, it looks like it is usable, now.

    The new lemmy instance covers topics like #selfdevelopment and #sustainability and everything what is connected to it. I will create a lot of communities the next weeks and almost every #challenge I provided on Habitica will be accessible publicly there, too. (And I will announce them on Mastodon).

    It should be a safe space to focus on important topics and define fulfilling goals, create a habit to work on them and to reach them in an efficient way, even if the "All Feed" is activated, which can be distracting very fast, because it shows federated posts. I recommend to stay in the "Local Feed".

    I've put so much energy, time and money in a self-hosted Lemmy instance, because what happened on Habitica was the last time that a company will be able to destroy the utopify community.

    We had a healthy routine to set goals, have a sustainable mindset, motivate and inspire others and all was gone within a short time. This time the plan is, that it will stay for much much longer and that all experience will be saved and can be shared by everyone :)

    The Lemmy instance is free of GAFAM spyware (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft) or any trackers/ads and it runs on a private server and WE DON'T FEDERATE WITH #META (#threads, #project92, #p92)

    If you want to support utopify.org, you can do this over liberapay: liberapay.com/utopify.org

    Every cent is appreciated and helps to keep everything running :)

    Leider erwähnt dieses Abstract nicht deutlich genug, dass #Facebook / #Meta an den Ermittlungen maßgeblich beteiligt war.

  9. I didn’t see anyone report on this, but a 13 slides deck about #meta #threadApp ’s future plans has leaked.

    And guess what you can find at the slide 11.... Mastodon compatibility confirmed again.

  10. Another thing that I think #Threads did well is that — they let you follow people BEFORE they (also) joined Threads.

    They did it by identifying these people by their #Instagram ID.

    But you could imagine this working with other IDs, too.

    #meta #facebook #project92 #p92

  11. I started muting every brand and influencer #Threads has put in my home-feed (that I am not following).

    It somewhat improved the home-feed.

    #meta #facebook #instagram #project92 #p92

  12. One thing that I think #Threads did well is that — they were able to bring over large chunks of communities over from #Instagram to Threads.

    (They did it by pulling in users from Instagram to Threads mastodon.social/@reiver/110665 )

    I think that this is one challenges the Fediverse has had, that affects retention.

    One of the draws of a social-media network is the individuals and the communities that are there.

  13. @lonus

    Yes, according to The Guardian, #regulations in the EU were the main issue: "Sources at #Meta, which owns Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, said regulations were behind the postponement of an EU launch, amid a series of clashes between the social media group and the bloc." #Threads #P92 #Project92

  14. The home feed of #Meta 's / #Facebook 's / #Instagram 's new social-media network #Threads seems to only be showing me posts from accounts I do NOT follow.

    I wonder if it is because the accounts I do follow there aren't posting (or aren't posting enough).

    Or their #RecommendationEngine (which so many people wrongly call the #Algorithm ) doesn't seem good at figuring out what I'm interested in. Maybe it doesn't have enough data — although they do have data on me from Instagram.

  15. Viele machen sich Sorgen wegen des angekündigten Einstiegs des #Facebook-Konzerns #Meta ins Fediverse. Es geht um die App #Threads. Was wir darüber wissen, steht hier: digitalcourage.de/blog/2023/fe

    Bei @digitalcourage haben wir noch nicht entschieden, ob wir Metas Fediverse-Instanz(en) aus unseren Instanzen aussperren werden. Noch funktioniert bei threads.net das Föderieren nicht. Das kann sich aber jederzeit ändern.

    Wer vorbeugend ausschließen will, dass die eigenen Tröts zu Meta/Threads gelangen, kann sich mit folgender Anleitung abschotten:

    1. Die CSV-Datei von gitlab.digitalcourage.de/fediv herunterladen.

    2. In den persönlichen Mastodon-Einstellungen auf „Importieren und Exportieren“ gehen, dann auf „Importieren“, also hierhin: digitalcourage.social/settings

    3. In der Auswahlbox „Domain-Sperrliste“ auswählen

    4. Die zuvor heruntergeladene CSV-Datei dort hochladen

    5. Wenn das geklappt hat, müssten Einträge mit „threads“ auf digitalcourage.social/domain_b zu sehen sein

    Vielen Dank an @ordnung für die Vorlage!

  16. AFAICT, #Meta / #Facebook grew their new social-media network #Threads by mostly bringing over users from their old social-media network #Instagram .

    Online video games use this technique, too.
    They try to get people who play their old video game to play their new video game.

    It tends to make the customer acquisition cost a lot less expensive.

  17. IMPORTANT #BlockMeta

    (1/n)

    Take precautions:
    #Meta joins the #Fediverse

    Today, I have reposted toots about the many data abuses #Meta has already committed.

    Alas, my instance, mastodon.social, has not responded what they intend to do about #Project92, aka #Threads (i.e. #defederate).

    The #CJEU's published a damning ruling on 07/05/23 that all its practices regarding data collection contravene #GDPDR.

    I have therefore decided to at least block the presently over 2.500 instances that...

  18. CW: Project 92, Threads, Disgusting moves from Meta

    I've heard rumours, but I'm not sure, is it true that Meta's launching the stuff by the end of the week?

    Imagine paying the Dalai Lama to use your shitty social network and stealing money from others' hard work (Fedi)

  19. Erweitere Domainblockade für FaceBook / META / threads.*

    Der #Facebook / #META Konzern möchte mit dem #Projekt92 / #Barcelona / #threads.* an das Fediverse andocken. Erste Domains sind offenbar #threads.net. (Wir verzichten auf die aktive Verlinkung) Nachdem zahlreiche Admins inzwischen erklärt haben, alle diesbezüglichen Aktivitäten und Domains zu blockieren, gibt es eine Sammlung von suspekten Facebook / META / threads Domains zum Download und anschließenden Import bei #Mastodon. Wäre per regex sicher kürzer geworden, aber was soll's. Die Liste wird gepflegt und erweitert.

    Die #Vernetzung mit Meta soll nicht mehr automatisch erfolgen, sondern man kann sich jetzt dafür entscheiden, seinen Server mit "finanziellen Anreizen" mit Meta zu verbinden, wenn er "groß genug" ist.

    Trotzdem lohnt es sich, diese Domains und IPs zu blockieren, nur für den Fall, dass sie es sich anders überlegen und um zu verhindern, dass META den Server ohne Zustimmung oder die der Nutzer:Innen ausspionieren.

  20. I figure that this may be the best place to ask but

    Can someone ELI5 to me what #federation is? What is #ActivityPub? What makes bluesky different from mastodon and vice versa? What are the implications of Meta making project 92/threads? I'm not very tech savvy and just need some help understanding.

    And bonus, only if you want to answer but what does the future of social media look like??

  25. @zuk @stavvers The word "#meta" can mean "talk about the fedi/AP/Mastodon platform, rather than about the account's usual topic" in the same sense as #metadata and #metaphysics. Or it can mean Meta Platforms, Inc., the company that operates #Instagram, #Facebook, and the #HeadMountedDisplay company formerly known as #Oculus.

    #MetaPlatforms recently announced "Project 92", a coming microblog service that federates with Pleroma and Mastodon servers using ActivityPub protocol. A lot of fediverse users are vehemently opposed to #Project92, which they see as undue #commercialization of the fediverse. Many support a #FediPact to suspend any instance operated by Meta Platforms.
