 I wasn't kidding when I said Curated Onboarding is being prepared to ship! I know it's been delayed a few weeks, but I've been busy with security/bug fixes and the mobile app release. It will be shipping very soon, I even have the blog post draft awaiting release 💅 Interesting, the Mona app dev forked some scraper that imitates a web browser to collect Mastodon data without having to register an app/api token. https://github.com/JunyuKuang/snscrape/blob/master/snscrape/modules/mastodon.py#L98 I'm not sure how the fedi would feel about that 🧐  @dansup from what I could find, it is closed source. No public GitHub repositories relating to Mona at all on https://github.com/JunyuKuang/  @dansup looks quite neat! I got 3 bags of beef jerky for valentimes day, and some weed 😶🌫️ He sure knows the way to a mans heart ❤️  @dansup i have read three bags of weed. Happy Valentine's day, which is also my birthday as well! ❤️ omg, its hard to not fan girl sometimes when one of your heros or some famous person (or both) interacts with your posts I have a lot of followers but I still feel like that guy with only 12 followers, not to make everything about me but can you imagine?? aahhhh, omg, its just cray cray and I'm here for it but yeah this made my day 😁 :pixelfed: Admins may see one of these banners if they run an outdated instance. - Only shown to admins @Mastodon you sly dog, thanks for the idea, you really make our jobs easier with all dat innovation 😎 Another great idea that Mastodon uses is to email all admins about security fixes. They don't send thousands of emails from some central location. Each mastodon instance sends mail to its own admin address. Pixelfed Admins: You may notice outgoing requests to versions.pixelfed.org/versions.json in the latest release. Your instances will poll that url every 30 mins to check if there is a new version release! Fear not, we published all the source code for this, should you want to audit this feature. PR: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/pull/4934/files Update Server: https://github.com/pixelfed/pf-api-update/ https://pixelfed.social is thrilled to announce our pledge to @iftas against misgendering and deadnaming on the fediverse. Special thanks to #IFTAS for pioneering this initiative to encourage and foster inclusive, safe and welcoming communities! https://about.iftas.org/2024/01/30/targeted-misgendering-and-deadnaming-in-the-fediverse/ I'm seeing a lot of mention spam from multiple instances, as a user it's annoying but as a developer I understand the complexity of dealing with spam #hugops to all admins dealing with this, and I hope other admins hold off on defederation to give admins time to deal with this mess These attacks only make our network more resilient, and cooperation between projects is essential to long term mitigation

 I guess we have different opinions. Consent based messaging isn't complex.
Welcome to the party. Are you on the guest list? 200. No? 403. https://fediversity.site/item/824d02bb-52cb-46b8-923c-0d7db0da35e1 Laughs. 45 million users. 3.5 billion spams a day. You were still in diapers. Suit yourself.
Spammers will spam anything they can post to and not get rejected. They'll spam a password prompt fercrysake. Don't leave anything open that an unknown/unwanted person can post to, because they will. Blog trackbacks? (Which bypass moderation). I've cleaned up 1/4 million spams at a time from those until I turned them off. I hate spam. Hate. Hate. Hate. That's why I got rid of it. You can too.
Looks like a spam wave is underway from a self proclaimed "low-moderation" misskey server  @dansup I will admit, the warning label shown to server admins is pretty annoying, definitely motivates me to get rid of it faster.  The new @pixelfed app build (v44) is rolling out to TestFlight users! I wasn't able to get Push Notifications or Share Extension support included as I've been busy with the recent backend release. Be prepared to update again soon, push notifications are literally hanging by one last thread (me setting up a proxy server... I want to write my own but may have to borrow one from our big bro Mastodon)

 @dansup @pixelfed Could you use one of the bridging services? Mastodon's uses an outdated specification version & it's difficult to upgrade, see: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/26496
