@atomicpoet Agree. Do you know about FirstNet in the USA? It's more of just a network, but I kept saying they should have some kind of comms server in the command center instead of sending everything to a satellite. pocketnow.com/this-firstnet-te

@xabean @signalapp Or make an instance on the Signal domain instead of using someone else's.

@vector1dev@mstdn.starnix.network Exactly! Or we could use email with upgraded encryption like TLS/DANE & autocrypt, right? bookofadamz.com/the-smartest-m

@bjmendelson Nah, Signal is no longer open source (closed source spam component), requires your phone number (major privacy issue), doesn't allow you to run your own server and doesn't federate. Then there's the crypto coin scam. It's just another centralized dictatorship designed to collect & abuse users instead of empower them.

@ben Wow, nice! Now we need that Wordpress plug-in to to get some comment/follow features.

It is profoundly intellectually lazy and offensive to the soul to think that the sum total of human expression could ever be mediated by any single entity.

I built the foundations of Twitter with my bare hands and watched in awe and sadness as it grew into a cynical temple of ego.

I delight in its destruction. We're better off here.

Mastodon Migration  

Mastodon Day

Friday November 18, 2022 - An Incredible Day In Internet History

You were here.

It started with the Twitter lockout. 10,000 new users an hour. Almost a quarter million migrated to Mastodon in one day. The servers struggled. Remarkably, admins all over the world built up capacity in real time. New users were patient. The system held.

It's running better now. There will be more hard days ahead, but people powered social media has arrived.

#twittermigration #NewUsers #Welcome

woah, have you guys heard of this “Twitter” site? it’s this place where you can look up anyone you know and find out their Mastodon address!

@ginnyhogan@mstdn.jp Always save your passwords and login info in an encrypted password manager. KeePass is my favorite since there's a large ecosystem of client apps, sync options, and plugins.

@WalterShaub@journa.host Why are you not verified on your website though?

@EricCarroll Oh, I didn't hear that. I was going by this: mastodon.social/@Gargron/10783 But that was a while ago.

@EricCarroll Maybe if they change it so it does federate someday, they'll be pre-blocked?

@EricCarroll @djvanness @AnkurFactorial The way I understand it, Trump removed the federation capabilities on Truth Social. It's Mastodon with a Soapbox front end. pocketnow.com/trump-truth-soci

@herchenroder Nice to meet you too! I was on the ASP/SQL Server side around the turn of the century. Trying to get better typography controls into CSS standards these days: bookofadamz.com/css-needs-bett

@fxshaw There are some bots that publish news through ActivityPub, so you can follow those... or make more bots that publish news links.

@canrith@corteximplant.com @fxshaw Yeah, an RSS reader is great! You can follow Fedi accounts using RSS, too.

@benthepcguy You can change the code in your server to tell people whatever you want in terms of follower count: infosec.exchange/@xpn/10937153

"Mastodon is just like email."
Like email? So I use Microsoft Outlook?
"Use WHAT"

(Tools -> Account Settings -> RSS Feeds -> New -> https://mastodon.social/@Gargron.rss)
