In #fediverse news today: both #Hometown and #Fedibird changed their reporting info from #Mastodon to their fork names.

Wow fucking #couchsurfing put up a paywall so you can’t even see any of your past messages or friends without a subscription of 2$ a month, federated couch surfing when?!

I just finished reading this massive thread about standardizing “groups” on the #fediverse and how we want them to work in the future: socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/

:fediverse:

The thread is a massive discussion between @humanetech @dansup @sl007 @mike @heluecht @grishka @nightpool @tchambers @yala @weex

I tagged them here in case others who do not partake in the socialhub forum have followup questions or concerns regarding the shaping of the fediverse, as this is a participatory space!

@liaizon the tension between "make everything public, for safety" and "let me have private groups, for safety" is wild. Is there a solution?

@humanetech @dansup @sl007 @mike @heluecht @grishka @nightpool @tchambers @yala @weex

ten months later and these discussions largely stalled out. @vpzom did make a post outlining how they implemented some of the ideas discussed into #Lotide and many discussions have come out of this discussion so all and all not a bad outcome but still I really hoped there might be a bit more agreement on how to move forward with #fediverse group #standardization in the last year

It does appear that there is some consolidation in the group space. Pixelfed and Mastodon both seem to be converging on the Smithereen implementation, and that's one of the implementations we support. Another handful of projects are converging on "just use mentions" and we support that as well (but only for public groups). We're probably going to see some issues about cross-platform leakage of private group content because we can't agree on whether privacy is an attribute of a post or of a conversation (with the same polarised debate as surrounds tabs vs. spaces or vi vs. emacs or AGPL vs. MIT). But this was always going to be a problem.

Anyway, consolidating into two competing camps is much better than where we began.

A freshly redesigned interface was just announced for #GnuSocial! The #fediverse’s oldest project is alive and kicking!

Had a fascinating discussion this morning with @cblgh, @cryptix, and @substack on the issues of interoperability and shared standards and the perception of differing ideas of community and society and the biases and interfaces that shape all those ecosystems. #Svendborg #solpunk

There is a really bad privacy bug in the new “official” #mastodon #ios app. If you reply to a dm it defaults to totally public. This is honestly a really awful bug that has already resulted in mistakingly posting publicly something I meant to be private.

Is there a version of the idiom ‘You can’t see the forest for the trees’ that’s more directly related to technology/software?

I just discovered this show from the 80s called “the secret life of machines” and it’s absolutely marvelous. I highly recommend anyone here go watch it. The person who made it has now uploaded many of the old episodes and added a updated addendum at the end.

was reading about usenet and the history of email systems and found this usenet simulator that has a ton of weird old content from who knows when that you can explore in its original form

Fuck so the admin of kf posted a video on YouTube urging people to join the fediverse 6 hours ago that already has 3.5k views and is getting shared a ton on Twitter. We might need to get out shit together and get ready for an influx of folks we may not like
