tired: using CDNs for your fediverse instance
wired: turning the fediverse into a global CDN itself
with @cwebber's datashards proposal, it's possible. we plan to implement datashards in Pleroma 2.0 to accomplish this. -

it may surprise people to learn that pleroma.site does not tolerate the whole "kill yourself" thing. don't believe the hype, the only reason ice was banned was over that. -

@wilkie @cwebber more signatures, more metadata leakage, continuation of the authentication as authorization regime -

@Laurelai @emsenn
freedom 0 doesn't have to take the paradox of tolerance into account, because it is not intended to be absolute.
and, that's not what i am saying anyway.
my point is that because of the anti-gab functionality, Google may push back on Tusky in the future and say that they have to block instances related to falun gong in the Chinese market, for example.
and so this is what I mean when I say, once you bend freedom 0, you bend it forever.
the solution isn't to not say "fuck gab" if you want to say "fuck gab", the solution is to remove GAFAM from the pipeline entirely. this preserves your speech and reduces the risk of bending freedom 0. -

if you are planning to use Freedombone to set up a Pleroma instance, please be aware that Freedombone have extensively modified the default configuration, to among other things, use an arbitrary domain whitelist.
their default configuration limits you to a list of extremely arbitrary instances, including stuff like “toot.wales” which is exactly what you think it is.
every single mainstream Pleroma instance is not present on their allowlist, and many mainstream Mastodon instances are also not present on their allowlist. it appears to be derived from the maintainer’s personal instance whitelist.
because of this, we do not suggest using Freedombone’s packaging of Pleroma. these changes have not been reviewed by the Pleroma developers and we would never ship a configuration with an arbitrary whitelist as default.
WE WILL NOT BE PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR FREEDOMBONE USERS BECAUSE OF THESE MODIFICATIONS.
if you want an alternative method for setting up Pleroma easily, look at @cloud who do not impose broken defaults on you.

@eleix @Gargron object storage is used because the main server is usually on a VPS with not much free space. -

@animeirl @bhtooefr @Elizafox @kaniini
oh, that's not even the tip of the iceberg.
what ultimately makes it unusable is that tulsa transit does not even pick people up on time. sometimes, frequently, they pass people who are waiting to be picked up, and you have to wait for the next bus (which may be as long as an hour away).
accordingly, you have to plan to leave 2 hours ahead of when you need to actually arrive anywhere to have sufficient buffer for the lack of dependability.
compared to a car, or hell, even uber / lyft / whatever. -

Australia data encryption laws explained
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has said police could order individual IT developers to create technical functions without their company’s knowledge.
“This has the potential for Australian tech firms to have no clue whether they were even subject to an order,” the foundation’s Nate Cardozo told the BBC.
Yikes.

by the way, did you know that Pleroma and AndStatus are collaborating on building a production ActivityPub C2S client?

for all the shit people give Gargron, you do have to recognize that he was so moved by the abuses of proprietary social media services that instead of working for a tech company and becoming part of the problem, he did something about it.
yes. Gargron is not perfect. but, none of us are. there is no single person who is absolutely free of sin.
yes. there's a lot of things I disagree with him about, like the 300k user instance that is mastodon.social, and the way half of Mastodon's features are designed.
but that doesn't change the fact that he chose to be part of the solution instead of part of the problem. and so, as part of my yearly review of what I'm sponsoring on Patreon I decided to give him some of those resources. -

AP C2S is a low priority project for us right now (we are trying to ship 1.0), but I will see what I can do this weekend. -

if we can get #drupal covered with #activitypub (or even #litepub) support, then we've pretty much solved the social reading problem. this is big because that's historically been the property of facebook. -

pleroma.site has been updated to latest build!
new: this means you can post with markdown or wordpress-style HTML
it should be noted that Gargron is a buzzkill, and therefore:
- Mastodon won’t show the formatted text as formatted
- but don’t worry, everything else on the fediverse will, including the new Zot6 stuff
also a lot of Pleroma FE improvements, thanks to @hj
Shitposting is better in rich text.
- me
And finally, remember:
Pleroma does what
Mastodon’tMastocan’t. -

folks, if you have problems with being dogpiled from an instance that runs pleroma, just block it, like you would with mastodon. it's as simple as that, really. -

#introductions
i have been writing free #software for nearly 20 years, examples include #audacious, #ircd (many different ones), small tools like #pkgconf, many libraries and large distributions like #alpinelinux.
recently, i have been working on #pleroma and an alpine derivative called #adelie, which is essentially a polished and commercially-supported version of alpine.
i like #turtles, #rabbits and my warm and soft #onesie, which i usually spend the day lounging around wearing while i do my work. -

also in case you didn't know already, it is possible to federate with hubzilla using activitypub now
pleroma will automatically try to use activitypub whenever a hubzilla instance has it installed
hubzilla is kind of a neat project, we are planning to do some similar things as they are doing with pleroma in the post-1.0 future (nomadic identity and so on) -

@dansup @mmn
well, the main reason why Pleroma isn't a GNU project is because the gnu.io initiative never got the support it needed from the GNU mothership. we believe in AGPL, software freedom and the overall principles of the gnu.io initiative, but if we have to build it ourselves, there's no point in being under the gnu.io umbrella: if we build it ourselves, the only "advantage" to being under the gnu.io umbrella is that others can come in and tell us what to do with the stuff we are building :)
it should also be noted that the GNU project also endorsed Mastodon as a possible replacement when Gargron took it AGPL.
so, I would like to believe that Stallman would be happy that there has been a movement to take back the social web in a way that propagates software freedom; the GNU project isn't the beginning or end of this movement. I also have the understanding that Stallman knows our reasons for this and accepts them.
finally, in my opinion, it's the movement that is important, not where it is located: if we are building our own organization to support the initiatives we are doing with Pleroma, then this is a logistical detail and is ultimately uninteresting and unimportant to the overall mission of propagating software freedom in this space -

and, in a way, the fediverse is a social justice action: it is a protest against corporate-owned capitalized social media platforms which condition humanity towards gamified outrage interactions for the sake of driving advertising revenue
the key point is that social justice requires *action*
being the change you want to see in the world, etc.
