Hello everyone!
I write my bachelor's thesis about Mastodon as an alternative social network and how its users perceive the platform.
I would be greateful if you would particpate in my survey:
umfragen.uni-paderborn.de/inde…
It only takes 10-15 minutes and would help me a lot.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
In case you want to support me, you can repost the access link, which would also help me.
Thank you!

Gajim is currently migrating from GTK3 to GTK4. 🔧 GTK is Gajim's user interface toolkit. It provides building blocks, like windows, buttons and labels. 🧩
Version 4 of this toolkit brings performance improvements to Gajim, e.g. faster rendering of user interface elements. 💨
Additionally, switching to GTK4 allows Gajim to use newer widgets, like nice drop downs.
Here is a quick peek at a new group chat "@ mention" widget. 😎
Stay tuned!

Ui-wooo! Hetzner is one week late with their Halloween "prank": 3 maintenance windows in a row, November 6, 7 and 8. We hopefully won't be affected for the full time (they wrote "just a few minutes") but of course cannot tell *exactly* when. So some time within those windows.
Again, only the primary servers are affected. Our mirrors will still be available to you for app updates and installs.

If you read my book Sandworm and/or care about Ukraine, please understand that Trump does not, and if elected he will very likely let Putin win.

Wir haben endlich #Tammy veröffentlicht - ein komplett neuer #Matrix Client: tammy.connect2x.de
Tammy wurde von Grund auf in #Kotlin Multiplatform entwickelt und ist ein neuer, innovativer Matrix Messenger, der für Desktop (Windows, Mac, Linux), Mobilgeräte (derzeit Android, bald auch iOS) und Web (in Beta) verfügbar ist. Tammy basiert auf unseren robusten SDKs und ist ebenfalls Open Source!
Mehr dazu auch in diesem Vortrag: youtube.com/watch?v=rc21V-DKSb…
Dann halte ich mal die Daumen gedrückt, dass sie Perspektive bald™ sichtbar wird! Ein guter Matrix-Client fehlt hier einigen, die jedoch Google & Co nicht gern in ihrer privaten Kommunikation sehen 😉
Danke schonmal, und viel Erfolg!

in reply to Paula • • •This Questions are problematic, I think:
* Mastodon’s actions against any harmful content are sufficient.
* Mastodon’s actions against the spread of fake news are sufficient.
For this, the admins/ moderators are responsible and not Mastodon.
