Liebe #Fediverse Aktivisti und Advokati 🌟

Alle unsere Einsichten, Kampagnen und Materialien, um Menschen für das Fediverse zu begeistern (seien es How-to Guides, Microsites, Erfahrungsberichte, Audio, Video, Grafiken, Workshop-Konzepte, Kunst oder Merch), sind aktuell zu verstreut als dass wir alle aus ihnen gemeinsam schöpfen könnten. Es ist JETZT Zeit, das zu ÄNDERN 😄

Ich habe nun einen Artikel im @JoinFediverseWiki begonnen, der ALLE Ressourcen sammeln soll, die den Anspruch haben, Menschen mit wenig bis gar keinem Wissen in das Fediverse zu bringen:

joinfediverse.wiki/Fediverse_o…

Die Zusammenstellung enhält bereits eine Menge Guides, Merchandise-Angebote, Infografiken, künstlerische Grafiken, Branding Materialen, DIY-Projekte, Clips, Vortragsaufzeichnungen, Testimonials, Presseberichte, Bücher usw. und natürlich gibt es einen Abschnitt zu Workshops 😀

Macht gerne mit und helft, damit diese Sammlung noch bunter wird. Ihr könnt selbst im Wiki mitarbeiten* oder mir hier eure Beiträge zuleiten, damit ich sie einpflege. Vor allem, wenn ihr Fediverse Einführungsworkshops gebt, wäre es eine Freude, euch auf der Liste der Workshop-Gebenden zu haben 😙

⁂ Bitte boosten, damit das auch die entferntesten Knoten im Fediverse erreicht ⁂

OK. Some of y'all wanted a stereo recording of Cadence. Here's my recording on: How it works with NVDA, how images work, how connecting two of them works. You'll also hear the pins more accurately. Enjoy.

Self-hosted Delta Chat?

I've been thinking more about the hurtle of getting friends and family to use federated/self-hosted services. One of the issues to onboarding is people not "getting" the idea of picking an instance. This has led, in part, to "default" instances, like mastadon.social, that grow so large it almost defeates the idea.

I've been thinking that I really wish #DeltaChat had a web client. I have had a MUCH more difficult time getting folks to try that out than even #fediverse SNS. But I was thinking how the heck are you going to pull that off without @delta having to host the overhead for a robust web client and possibly host a gigantic server system that has to grow exponentially to keep everyone's email from all the possible email providers, really defeating the goal of their project.

This morning, I thought of a possible solution to both problems. What if you have a built-in transfer requirement. So you start with a default, say pleb.joinmastodon.org or noob.delta.chat and after a certain time (3 months or something) you have to either transfer to a new instance, including hosting your own client for in browser decryption web access to your encrypted mail chats or your account (in the case of #mastodon) or web client access (in the case of Delta Chat) is shut off.

Do you think this could work?

@delta_chat

in reply to Fu

it's a neat idea to postpone server choice until later, and onboard with some default.

#deltachat apps are currently learning to use multiple addresses at once ("multi-transport"), along with cryptographic hardening against evil server operators. The goal is to provide multi-server onboarding by default, and to automate server migrations (although for a while there will be an advanced settings interface where it's manually managed). You'd be onboarding "to the network" :)

--------------------

Welcome to StroongeCast Clips,

a selection of highlights from various episodes.

We're gonna start with episode seven, Jake and

Alice.

- Well, my friends are really baffled by it.

They're like, "How does your dad get around the

house?"

Or like, "How does he play piano?"

Or like, "Does he do daily life activities?"

- What do you say?

What do you tell them?

- Um, usually he's like,

well, he like feels with his hands

or he just gets used to it

'cause everything is in the same place most of

the time.

- For me, all of my friends,

none of them know how smart you actually are

with computers and stuff,

how you use your phone or whatever.

And I always try to describe voiceover to them,

but they never understand it.

So- - You've gotta show it.

- Oh, you're saying- - Yeah, I could show them.

But yeah, they just think you sit at home like a

sod

and just do nothing, I think.

(all laughing)

- They don't understand how you do anything.

- Wow.

- I'm the sodding dad.

I do nothing. - That's hilarious.

- That's what they think. - Priceless.

- They're like, "How does he type?"

Especially with the piano stuff.

They're like, "Oh."

- Episode 20.

- Synesthesia.

What was, maybe you should share the one with the

piano key.

- Oh gosh.

That's kind of a bit weird.

People think I'm quite bizarre.

- Well, when we read some of the others out,

I don't think you'll be the only one.

- There is one note on the piano,

which is F4 on the piano, right?

So C4 is the middle of the piano for a lot of

people.

So F4, which is the F above C4,

is the feeling of a boob.

Yup.

In the palm.

I have no answer for why that might be.

So if you're drinking tea and you take it this,

I apologize.

But I can't tell you why that is the case.

I just know it is the case.

Episode 44.

- Communication is key.

- I was so claustrophobic by the end of those

two or three weeks,

because I had to be guided everywhere.

All I wanted to do at the end of the day

was go to the hotel room or sit on a balcony.

And at the time I was single,

so I just go on a dating site.

And that sounds really sad, doesn't it?

But that's all I wanted to do,

because it was the only time I could get some

head space

where I was sort of in my own head

and I didn't have to think about other people

or other people taking me or where am I.

Because I think what people don't realize

is about being blind,

that your adrenaline circuits are on maximum

firing

all the time.

So although you're guiding Andre, Kirsten,

and that's sort of, I can't think of the right

word,

but that's an activity that you're undertaking

and it's you're keeping an eye on him.

Andre's also guiding himself

'cause he's avoiding stuff

and getting out of the way of things

and listening constantly.

So he's probably knackered after a day of that,

just as you're knackered from guiding him.

- Episode 47.

- Cruise cast.

And then you're gonna make me say

what happened next, aren't you?

- Unfortunately, because it was one of the most

scary things

that's ever happened to all of us, I think.

So whilst Jake had gone, he ran.

Obviously it was a very stressful moment

because we were thinking,

well, what if he's lost all of his stuff

if someone's taken everything?

And, or what if he doesn't get back in time?

Like, what do we do?

And we were at this bus stop, sat there,

and I started to feel a bit strange,

just queasy.

And I thought, I feel sick because it's the

stress,

the anxiety of, oh my gosh, what do we do?

And then my ears started to sort of cloud over

and I couldn't hear anything.

And I was feeling really, really dodgy.

And I said to you, I feel like I'm gonna pass out.

I've never passed out in my life, never fainted,

nothing.

So I don't really know, but I just, I felt really

awful.

And I sat down on the floor because the bus stop

was just one of those tiny little, not even a

bench thing.

I sat on the floor and I could feel my whole head

just completely go fuzzy.

I couldn't hear anything.

And then the next thing I remember was a man crouched

down

in front of me saying, are you okay?

Are you okay?

- Yeah, he did.

- And I sat up and went, I think I just fainted.

And he went, oh, okay.

- Episode 60.

- Do you believe in smacking?

When Jake was a toddler, I used to take him to

this group

and there was a mum there with her,

I think it was a little boy.

And I think he'd gone and hit another child or

something.

I mean, he would have been like 18 months to two

years old.

I mean, we're talking little.

He really, he didn't have many words at all.

And he'd hit another child, I think, not hard,

just in the way that they do.

And she went up to him and smacked him on the

hand

and said, we don't smack.

- That's okay, right, sure.

- And I just remember being so baffled by that.

How can you say to a toddler that, I mean, any

child,

but to a very young child who barely even

understands

the world yet, I'm gonna do something to you,

but you're not allowed to do it to anybody else.

- Thanks for listening.

And we will catch you next week.

- Bye.

just thought I would post this so you guys know of this thing. Who knows, maybe someone could make an nvda addon for this at some point. github.com/supertone-inc/super…

Well, maybe we need to be more clear what we are trying to do: #deltachat apps are a cross-platform private messenger suite, that aims to provide a consistent UX/UI for users with lots of experience using WhatsApp and Signal.

Telegram has good fast UX but is hardly a private messenger (it has a central cleartext database of everyone and everything).

Matrix and XMPP are well-esteemed fellows in federated messaging, but so far didn't grow a WA/Signal-level cross-platform messaging UX.

YMMV

in reply to Delta Chat

@arale_xan that's fine 🙂 I'm an #XMPP person myself but I've also been following what Delta Chat has been doing. It's cool that both use #WebXDC for "apps" (right?) because that's one less level of fragmentation for the messaging ecosystem

(I saw you mention it in light of Signal's new "polls" feature, although I knew it was happening before as well. I'm just waiting for a few more XMPP clients to pick it up and add support 😅)

Dulon Von Paradis Project: blog post 3,
Now that I’ve started writing about music I can’t stop. My Canada Counsel grant is allowing me to dive into one of my very favourite pools, and the water’s fine! In reading the first half of Friedrich Dulon’s autobiography I’ve been most moved by his accounts of playing music with others, not for performance or money, but for the joy of it. Busking is primarily about money it’s true, but it’s not stage performance, and it’s definitely not glamorous, two of the many reasons I love it so. Here’s what happened to me while playing at my favourite station, Queen’s Park, this week.

A lost recording of a Pavarotti concert in a Welsh village is released.

The Decca label celebrates the late tenor’s 90th birthday with the out-of-print archives of the Llangollen Competition, which he won in 1955 as a member of an amateur choir.

‘The Lost Concert’ also includes the first two recordings of Pavarotti’s career.

Several episodes into Earth Sound, thanks to deborahh@cosocial.ca for the brilliant recommendations, a decades old mystery was solved for me. Back when I used to camp, and spend a lot more time in nature, there was this intermittent sound, a beat that started slow, and got faster. It was of such resonance that you could feel it in your chest and in the ground. It’s a ruffed Grouse, and you have to be exactly in its line of sound, and if you’re a female ruffed grouse I guess you get pretty horney. For so many years I wonderd, a bever, some huge mutant scunk about to spoil my year? Now I know. This audio rendering isn’t great, but if you’ve ever heard it and wondered, now you’ll know too

For those who used all three of Whatsapp, Signal and Delta Chat in multi-device mode:

Which messenger provides the best multi-device setup and handling for users (UX)?

(question spans setting up a second/linked device, as well as migrating to new device, as well as quality of multi-device synchronizing/bugfree-ness -- all subjectively weighted by each voter according to their subjective experiences)

  • Signal (29%, 34 votes)
  • Whatsapp (4%, 5 votes)
  • Delta Chat (55%, 64 votes)
  • other (please name in reply) (11%, 13 votes)

in reply to Delta Chat

DC is easily my favorite UX of these 3 because any device can be the primary - needing to create accounts on Whatsapp and Signal with a phone and tie a phone number to the account before creating a quite awkward secondary on a computer is, especially after that WA data leak, pretty unfortunate.

other folks have mentioned some Matrix and XMPP clients, and while I understand why DC does everything with QR codes to mitigate MITM attacks, it does make that standard workflow of scanning a QR code off a phone into the computer a pain in the neck. Matrix's approach to a username/password and then key syncing via emoji checking is really universal and slick.

Hey @FreakyFwoof
Am enjoying this one.

Darkness WithinBy: whimsical musings 1
On the fateful night when Ron and Hermione were abducted, the wheels of destiny began to turn. For Harry, the kidnapping of his friends shattered the illusion that the light side could protect those he loved. An ultimatum was presented, and a decision was made. Now, Harry stands at a crossroads: Can he protect those he loves without losing himself in the process?

Visto lo visto, creo que conviene, para quien no lo haya hecho, recalibrar un poco el tema de independencia judicial, separación de poderes, y estado de derecho.

Los jueces son el poder del Estado que tiene menos legitimidad democrática (prácticamente ninguna), menos control, menos transparencia, etc.

A lo mejor hay que plantearse que la función de resolución de conflictos de la judicatura no puede o deber convertirse en un obstáculo para la democracia.

La Fiscalía de #Portugal🇵🇹 reconoce que, como indicaba esta mañana el 'Diário de Notícias', hay escuchas al exprimer ministro António Costa relacionadas con el caso que acabó con su dimisión que no fueron incorporadas a la causa judicial. El 'DN' hablaba de 22, la Fiscalía admite siete
