Streit über @ElonJet eskaliert: Twitter sperrt Mastodon-Account und blockiert Links zum Konkurrenten

Vor allem in Deutschland gilt Mastodon als mögliche Twitter-Alternative. Doch aktuell lassen sich wichtige Teile des Dienstes auf Twitter nicht mehr verlinken. Was das mit Elon Musks Flugdaten zu tun hat.

Talk on Zero-cost deserialization in #Rust, by @manishearth

> ICU4X has [gone] all-in on zero-copy deserialization, a technique that ensures that data loading involves fast validation as opposed to slow allocation. To help with this, we have built a suite of crates (yoke, zerovec, zerofrom, and databake) that make zero-copy deserialization easier to work with and more broadly applicable.

Elon Musk starts banning critical journalists from Twitter

Twitter banned several journalists for talking about an account that let you track Elon Musk’s jet. Since then, Musk has been trying to justify the decision, and running polls about it.

Musk, politics
Wow, the media seems to be edging towards realising why Mastodon and the Fediverse exists:
“Musk seems to be intent on proving perhaps the greatest argument against social media: that its vast scale concentrates power in too few hands, with worrying consequences for the health of democratic politics.”
news.sky.com/story/trying-to-w…

Trying to work out Elon Musk's grand Twitter strategy is pointless - he doesn't have one

After another day of erratic decision-making at Twitter, Elon Musk's leadership has come under scrutiny once again. But given his record at SpaceX and Tesla, should we really be surprised by how he's running a social media platform?

"What does Friendica wants to be"?

@Friendica Support @Friendica Developers

Let me start with a concrete, question: Are there any efforts / plans to support the upload of videos?

And now, since I might have your attention, allow me to broaden the question to:

What is your opinion regarding "what #Friendica is / should be"?

My view / vision is heading slightly in the direction that nowadays image and video content is quite central in social networks and thus a #Fediverse application like friendica should support the multimedia aspect a bit more, if it wants to be attractive for the broad public in terms of being an alternative to commercial social networks.

Most of you might tell: "Yeah, if one prefers media centric Fediverse, then check out #pixelfed ". But I think, pixelfed is yet too much of an Instagram clone, only providing the image / video focus (which bothered me at Instagram from the very beginning not being able to have good commenting / discussion options there).

In my view, Friendica has great potential becoming a great "one fits all" application for the majority of people who like social media and the concept of the Fediverse. It has way more cool functions than #mastodon / pixelfed (which are in my opinion too close copies of Instagram and Twitter, respectively) but much simpler and convenient than Hubzilla (which I think is really great, for a computer science person, but not for the broad non-technical focussed public)

Wrapping it up: I would love to see a Friendica development towards an easier multimedia support. What are your thoughts?

Cheers

Marek

Hypolite Petovan

@Marek Bachmann :friendica: Ah, if it's personal then I can answer! The main reasons why I use Friendica are the following:

  • Threaded conversations à-la-Facebook.
  • RSS support.
  • Diaspora support (I mainly like the concept, I don't have many remaining Diaspora contacts).
  • Twitter support (although my patience for the platform is rapidly dwindling).
  • It's written in PHP so I can contribute!

I've looked in Hubzilla as well but I found it too unintuitive and I don't care much about nomad identity anyway.

I also run a single-user Pixelfed instance that I though would be a good complement for images, but I found out that I use it the same way I used Instagram before Facebook bought it out, which excludes casual image posts.

Still, I'm not a big image guy, I'm even less of a video guy, so I've never felt compelled to look into media support in Friendica myself. I've even resorted to post pictures on my Twitter account which would be mirrored on Friendica.

Thank you so much! This is exactly the kind of though exchange I was looking for. :-)

I am not that much in media myself, what is driving me is that I would love to motivate many of my real life contacts to leave commercial platforms for the very reasons we are all know too well.

And I started talking to them already. What I learned so far is, as I elaborated above, they use Instagram / TikTok and so on to "show" their lives but to their own "handpicked" groups.

For me, it is desirable to offer such people a place in the Fediverse. Where they are not subject to advertising and data exploitation.

So I am looking at the Fediverse and its applications at the moment, asking my self:
"What might be required that the Fediverse, in terms of an alternative to commercial social media, will be a welcoming and attractive place for all the good people outside, especially when they do not care about the technology itself too much?"

Twitter is blocking links to Mastodon

Twitter is blocking users from tweeting links to many major servers for Mastodon. The bans were enacted sometime after after journalists and Mastodon’s own account were unexpectedly suspended.

I suppose I should make a proper #introduction post for this place - hello everyone!

I'm Andrea. I'm a trans woman, a communist, and a tech/VFX artist, currently doing effects for #valheim at Iron Gate.

I have previously worked on a bunch of cool games like The Stanley Parable, What the Golf?, The Gunk, Wavetale, and... about 10 more.

Here's some random pictures of some personal work!

Birdsite blocking Mastodon URLs

Apparently Twitter has marked my Mastodon instance, hci.social, as “unsafe,” along with most other instances I tried. If he’s going after littler instances like this, it seems increasingly like a vendetta against Mastodon itself instead of some happenstance/accident.

Film Avatar: The Way of Water připomíná dokonalejší verzi současných videoher. Prostřední část se mění v jakýsi přírodopisný dokument. Lépe řečeno možná ten nejúchvatnější dokument, jaký kdy vznikl.
