@darius this would be amazing!

@darius Yes please! The prose on its own would be stellar; combine it with a snipped example json/whatever for that step and it’d be exactly the resource I keep hoping for.

@darius Yes, and I’d absolutely read something similar by, e.g., @jle or @hacdias! 🤪

Accepting followers and sending out Create activities for simple Notes is about as far as I got when I last gave ActivityPub a try. Would love to see semi-simple examples of Update and Delete activities, processing requests to shared inboxes, what an outbox should look like, how Mastodon treats Notes vs. Articles, and so on

@darius @winampskins those were the times! Brings back memories. ♥️

@darius Thanks for sharing this! I use Qmmp, so it's nice getting some interesting Winamp skins to use with it.

@darius @winampskins yes!!!! This is wonderful. As someone who still uses an ancient version of WinAmp under Wine for my main MP3 player this is my catnip!!

@darius its a strange idea.

it may be the best way for them to get to know what people are actually like,

but given their track record i wouldnt expect them to do anything other than use it as a datamine..

@darius @gizmomathboy To me it has the vibes of “very early days of something important, before federal IT can get their act together”

@darius nice, I would respond with Silver Cycles by Eddie Harris (however I want to respect my host's wishes not to link to Surveillance Capatalist site- so no link)

@darius
O.M.G.
Thank you... both for the superb music, and for the intro to @invidious

@darius @textfiles Yes. Another former Fidonet user here and my exploration of the Fediverse has brought back many memories. I kinda wish we were still there, actually.

@darius @textfiles RIP 1000BBS and the lost friends I made there!

@darius @textfiles FidoNet was amazing for the time period. I ran a BBS that had multiserver games that ran off it. #solarRealmElite

@darius This is a great overview of the issues. Thanks for writing this up! 👍

@darius I'll be reading this in a few, but I had to chime in after your name popped up. It's been forever since the Turbine days/daze.

@darius Right now the only rule in Argon City is "don't be a dick".

If I ever have to expand that very far, I think there might be a bigger problem.

@darius
I'm new around the fediverse. Do you know of any local or regional Oregon or PNW instances?

@darius related energy from the forum software i made earlier this year

@darius reference implementation in Rust and Bedsprings

@darius A+ dad joke right there.

@darius I did it once on the libre.fm database. Took forever.

@darius if you still have your test environment up, maybe you could dump and restore into that and test it out there? I dunno if the db is all the data needed to run

@darius I'm definitely interested in anything that can improve our DB as well

@darius When I first learned about this I was against it but when I thought about it longer I didn't really see an issue with showing people how to control what they see. In my opinion the page with the block/mute/unfollow options should just have a button that says "I want to report this post anyways" instead of completely removing it.

@darius I'll throw my two cents into the issue itself when I get a chance, but in the meantime:

Seems like a good opportunity for a "this doesn't break any rules explicitly, but it might be harmful to the community we're trying to build" category.

That's a lot of words for the category, but... y'know.

@darius that “feature” really just sounds like someone trying to fix a serious lack of moderators with code… ugh.

@darius What a great station! Do you recommend any others?

@darius @restofworld is on here!

@darius This explanation is pretty good to me (from https://twitter.com/richard_littler/status/1593544932198821888 )

That... isn't simpler than my usual "it's like email but social media"

@darius LOL I just tried to "delete & redraft" on Twitter. Forgot that doesn't exist there.

Just posted it: https://twitter.com/IgnisIncendio/status/1593487568070246401

@darius I've been tempted to try and do one for Orcas Island.

Like promote it in town and with friends. There's only 7k full time residents, so it doesn't feel out of the realm of possibility to get quite a few people.

@darius I hesitated when I posted mine.

@darius @tripofmice I looked but didn't see - is there a way to import from Goodreads (or another book reading/library tracking tool into Bookwyrm? I have a decade of longer of tracking my library in Goodreads which is hard to give up as it is very useful (I'm also more into Goodreads for my own tracking than for seeing other's reviews though I do like seeing them when from friends)

@darius @tripofmice Yes, Bookwyrm is nice, but there ist one big problem: its licence isn't open source at all.

@darius shame that imports it Goodreads data are currently disabled 😢

Tbh I think I just want to get rid of the vertical bar entirely and take it back to the hamburger menu

@darius Have been thinking of exactly this today -- definitely a pain. Hope this gets implemented!

@darius This would be so useful! I was shocked that there wasn't an option for that when I got my first moderation report.

@darius Crystal Light is still a thing? TIL.

Also whenever Kanye says "Chi-Town" he is referring to Chipotle, the fast-casual burrito chain

@darius Here you go: https://support.github.com/contact/bug-report

You'll need to be signed in to make a report.

@darius Noooo this reminds me of when I'm trying to find a link to something /about/ Wikipedia, and everything that comes up is a Wikipedia article. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻)

@darius I think you just add it to the graph of That DMCA Repo Commit…
