Huge thanks to Steven Scott and Shaun Preece for having me on @doubletap to talk about Tapestry and accessibility. It's an important aspect of our development work and it's always great to talk to these guys.

Can check the interview out on YouTube here - youtu.be/V7hPHxKrjp0

Hahaha, netter Versuch: "die Nachricht wurde von einem vertrauenswürdigen Absender gesendet." Glaube ich sofort. Der kennt nicht einmal meinen Namen, der vertrauenswürdige Absender.

Im Footer dann auch der übliche Hinweis: "Bitte beachten Sie: ADAC wird Sie niemals per E-Mail nach sensiblen Daten fragen." Da diese Mail allerdings genau das tut… Ihr wisst Bescheid, ja? 😉

Seid wachsam, Kreditkarten-Scam im Umlauf wie es scheint.

@unity Bei mir habe ich dafür einen Ordner. Der wird stündlich von einem Cron-Job abgegrast – und jede darin befindliche Mail an Razor, Pyzor & Co gefüttert. Anschließend gelöscht. Hilft dann nicht nur mir (für Folge-Mails) – sondern auch allen anderen, die diese Dinge z.B. via SpamAssassin prüfen lassen.

SpamAssassin. Das ist der "gute Assassin" (zu Deutsch: Killer, Mörder, Attentäter). Der meuchelt den Spam. Wüsste nicht, wie mein Postfach ohne den überleben sollte…

@unity Ist es auch. Hatte ich vor "Urzeiten" mal "zum Spaß" eingerichtet, bevor die "großen Spam-Orgien" starteten (muss so 20 Jahre oder mehr her sein). Kurz darauf ging es los – und was war ich froh, dass ich mir "den Spaß" gemacht hatte, als ich Zeit dafür hatte!

Und früher war alles … nein, nicht besser. Siehe Screenshots, 2025 vs 2020. Da hat sich schon was bewegt. 2017 und früher siehst Du die "Nutzmails" schon fast nicht mehr…

Hello nerds!

We've just created the first release candidate for #GoToSocial v0.18.0!

Adventurous admins can find the release candidate and upgrade instructions here:

github.com/superseriousbusines…

Please read the migration notes carefully for instructions on how to upgrade to this version. This version contains several very long migrations so you will need to be patient when upgrading, and backup your database first!!

Thanks for reading! :gtspat:


Release highlights:

  • Status edit support: one of our most-requested features! You can now edit your own statuses, and see instance edit history from other accounts too (if your instance has them stored).
  • Push notifications: probably the second most-requested feature! GoToSocial can now send push notifications to clients via their configured push providers.
    You may need to uninstall / reinstall client applications, or log out and back in again, for this feature to work. (And if you're using Tusky, make sure you've got ntfy installed).
  • Global instance css customization: admins can now apply custom CSS across their entire instance via the settings panel.
  • Domain permission subscriptions: it's now possible to configure your instance to subscribe to CSV, JSON, or plaintext lists of domain permissions.
    Each night, your instance will fetch and automatically create domain permissions (or permission drafts) based on what it finds in a subscribed list.
    See the domain permission subscription documentation for more information.
  • Trusted-proxies helper: instances with improperly configured trusted-proxies settings will now show a warning on the homepage, so admins can make sure their instance is configured correctly.
  • Better outbox sorting: messages from GoToSocial are now delivered more quickly to people you mention, so conversations across instances should feel snappier.
  • Log in button: there's now a login button in the top right of the instance homepage, which leads to a helpful page about clients, with a link to the settings panel. Should make things less confusing for new users!
  • Granular stats controls: with the instance-stats-mode setting, admins can now choose if and how their instance serves stats via the nodeinfo endpoints. Existing behavior from v0.17.0 is the default.
  • Maintenance router will now be used while your instance is starting up / running migrations. It serves a nice status page informing visitors to wait while migrations complete. Less admin anxiety! Stuff is working!

Hello hello here's the second release candidate for #GoToSocial v0.18.0, we fixed a bunch of stuff that was dodgy in the first one!

Thanks! Enjoy! Weeeee!

✉️ Mail-hosting na vlastní doméně obvykle stojí nějaké peníze, dá se sehnat ale i za symbolickou cenu (zkouším základní verzi u #Forpsi, kde nabízejí celkem 5 schránek, každá jen 1 Gb místa).

Ale že #Seznam_cz nabízí *neomezený* profi mail-hosting na vlastní doméně zcela *zdarma*, je krajně podezřelé. Kde je háček? Důvěřovali byste tomu?

#Reddit is now banning entire communities for criticizing Elon Musk.

It’s now time to start banging the drum about #Lemmy, #Mbin, and #Piefed as Reddit replacements.

Because right now we really do need decentralized alternatives to Big Social.

@Andre Louis @Patrick Perdue So I'm finally looking at the process of posting this little piece as a so called #braille200 entry. However it also includes a bit of burreaucracy. They at #EBU wish to receive this along with so called Copyright Transfer Agreement.
I was about to write short text mentioning Braille's friendship with Gabriel Gauthier more than 200 years ago, highlighting the fact he were able to make fun at that time, and now we can do the same using different tools and technologies and braille still remains one of inspiring points in today's blind artists creations.
Please @Andre Louis @Patrick Perdue kindly look at their article, skim the part of the submission process and let me know if you are still fine with that.

My mom has been making these #amigurumi #KDE #konqui for a while, we bring them to events and people exchange them for donations to the project. According to her logs she has made 161 of them, which means people have donated around 2000 euros to KDE thanks to her. It's also her birthday, so happy birthday mom!

Sadly, your new appearance settings have messed up my profile (as you can see in my toot), so I can’t recommend to change anything there.

Fortunately, I could replace it with an intact copy of my “~/.config/libreoffice” folder on another PC, but I couldn’t fix it another way.

Plus, the French translation is wrong (“maigre” instead of ”clair” for “light”, really?), but it’s a very minor problem compared to the rest…

Häufig erreichte mich die Frage, ob der Beitrag zu Gmail noch zutrifft – und die Antwort lautet: Ja! Google, beziehungsweise Gmail, liest weiterhin eure E-Mails. Das betrifft nicht nur eure eigenen Nachrichten, sondern auch E-Mails von Absendern, die selbst kein Gmail-Konto haben, aber an eine Gmail-Adresse senden. 👇

#NextCloud #accessibility is highly impacted by this thing that seems very small. What they did is they removed (!) the Copy Public Link from the context menu in their File Explorer integration. I don't know who to call, but I'm pretty sure we need to create more noise in there. I'm thinking about starting a petition. Please join me! github.com/nextcloud/desktop/i… // CC @nextcloud
