🎭 Ah, the bygone era of #SourceForge and #Bitbucket, where Armin was the king of his own nerdy #fiefdom 👑. But alas, #GitHub swooped in like the cool kid at school, and everyone had to abandon their Trac-tastic past for the land of Octocats 🐙. Who knew #nostalgia could be so... riveting? 😂

Not too long ago, we discovered there was a fake "mirror" of #Tenacity to #SourceForge. As of today, it looks like SourceForge took it down, along with the account impersonating @gperson.
For now, we have no plans regarding SourceForge, except for the possibility of creating a legitimate redirect to prevent this from ever happening again. We are still debating that, however.

Hach ja, Micro$chrott…
«Microsoft sperrt Konto von VeraCrypt-Entwickler — Windows-Version hängt in der Luft:
@veracrypt Nutzer schauen gerade etwas in die Röhre. Mounir Idrassi, der Hauptentwickler hinter der #Software (die echt noch bei #Sourceforge rumhängt), meldet sich nach längerer Funkstille zurück und hat schlechte Nachrichten im Gepäck. #Microsoft hat sein Konto gesperrt, das er seit Jahren zum Signieren von #Windows-Treibern und dem #Bootloader genutzt hat.» -

I just updated my Cookieless Web Counter project after 5 years https://sourceforge.net/projects/cookielesswebcounter/ #freesoftware #sourceforge #webanalytics
-
What I did today was simple I went on the clonezilla site, checked the alternative download servers then went to one of the FTP servers, listed over there.
wget worked flawlessly, of course
#Clonezilla #programming #OpenSource #POSIX #Disk #imaging #SourceForge #wget #mirror
-
Regretfully, when I attempted the download of clonezilla again, the browser also got a time-out at the 420MB mark, bringing my total waste of bandwidth to a whopping 50% of my monthly allotted 2GB **
:(
I am fascinated to learn what is going wrong though, because I've never had these problems with sourceforge. I downloaded programs from there for decades. When I have some bandwidth again I will use another mirror, this is probably a mirror-induced error
**(along with other off topic failures)

#OnThisDay, 2006-04-01, #MediaWiki development moved from a #SourceForge hosted #CVS environment to #SVN after a extended outage of the SourceForge CVS service.
The original SVN environment was hosted on @brooke's server until migrating to a @wikimediafoundation server on the 2007-05-31.

@gordoooo_z @PhenomX6 @futurebird @ink8 Whatever Eugen decides at this point it’s irrelevant. He’s pretty much lost his grip over holding the Fediverse brand as secondary to the notion of a fantasy “mastodon network” when he gave that Time Magazine interview two months ago in which the word “Fediverse” appeared not one single time - that caused enormous, untold damages including confusion that remains in the news media and disenfranchisement of large swaths of developers and users alike on not just other platforms, but mastodon instances themselves.
There’s really no such thing as toots anymore, Eugen himself refers to “Posts” and “Quote Posts”, and the submit button in mastodon now says “publish”. The reason #Misskey calls them “notes” is because that’s what they are actually called in #ActivityPub - there are also other types, that other platforms use as well, including “article”, although, instances like #qoto have set the character count for notes at 65535 🙂
It’s been covered in this thread already that Quote Posts are simply beyond the control of mastodon devs, Eugen’s edicts, or local mastodon users or admins, because most other platforms support it and there isn’t anything #mastopub can do about it. In Misskey, users can disallow it, but that only affects other local users, so it’s s moot point (except for silo instances).
There are very few Fediverse platforms that aren’t taking advantage of most things that are possible, for example, #Soapbox now has federated events, and introduced custom emoji reactions like Misskey has, and live chat - Misskey’s traditionally led the way with these federating features with #Calckey going even further.
Some platforms however, intentionally incorporate a leaner set of features; #Smithereen is one example, it doesn’t even sccomodate boosts, which harkens back to #Myspace, #VKontakte (aka, “VK” - not sure I spelled that right), and very early #Faceplant days. #Epicyon has anti-silo capabilities baked in.
#Mitra has #Substack style subscriptions at it’s core. Anyone can subscribe remotely from any Fediverse server instance where the user can receive DMs - and in congruence with privacy concerns that are typically expected for Fediverse implementations, it’s based on #Monero (XMR).
Most platforms also support #Markdown, with Cakckey being perhaps supporting the greatest superset IIRC, including #LaTEX, and #Friendica, being much older than msstodon, has continued to evolve over the past decade and still has support for #BBCode too, and direct links for uploading images for those who prefer to.
I didn’t see any mention of Markdown support when I bothered to look at the mastopub roadmap, yet even on that platform, Quote Posts are all throughout the stream and people boost and reply to them as the time - and, as mentioned earlier, anyone can create a post, simply pasting the link from someone else’s post, and then boost that… Voila! Local #Quote_Post.
mastodon was successful in its arrogance of leveraging some pretty graphics and welcoming verbiage into a brand that Eugen weaponized against virtually all other Fediverse platforms, and now, with all of the fine forks like #Hometown and several newcomers, we’ll soon be seeing hardforking as a result of that hostility.
But not just forks, funding and ambitious development as evidenced by existing and emerging platforms like #Cloudflare’s #Wildebeest, Tumbler, and the very unique, #Django based Takahē Fediverse server that I wrote about here:
https://tallship.writeas.com/takahe-a-new-fediverse-paradigm
Average people are already migrating in larger numbers everyday away from the archaic mastodonian resource hog to other, more capable and promising (and friendlier) platforms elsewhere in the Fediverse that have integrated and fully support #masto_migration, and even ones that don’t (yet) haver that feature.
Unlike other dinosaurs and the eponymous mammal for which Eugen chose the namesake of his #TootSuite product, we shouldn’t expect extinction for his platform, but the apathy and indifference levels are rising, as is the enmity in many sectors of the community for what others perceive as a betrayal (or sellout), and that kind of self-inflicted damage is often difficult to mitigate, with waves of disenchantment reverberating get into the future… Just look at what happened to #SourceForge - it still technically exists, but never recovered after the community betrayal it committed years ago.
And finally, there’s a irony so obvious that’s it’s not even plausible to deny… Eugen subverted the very rudimentary principal that the Fediverse network is ideologically predicated upon - #DeSoc… There’s no question that his goals shifted to that if building a silo for himself, at least to some great degree. Very sad.
An interesting thing about condescending others, you find yourself alone and isolated in an otherwise vibrant, busy world.
