Look at this example (screenshot), on the first one it looks like the post had only minimal reach, after pressing the crosshair icon all the data is fetched from all fediverse servers (which can take 1-3 seconds), also the discussion below the original post is much larger 😮

File uploadFile storage backend
Set the backend used by #Friendica to store uploaded file data. Two storage backends are available with Friendica:
Database : Data is stored in a dedicated table in database (storage)
Filesystem : Data is stored as file on the filesystem.
Default value is 'Database (legacy)': it's the legacy way used to store data directly in database.
Existing data can be moved to the current active backend using the 'storage move' console command
If selected backend has configurable options, new fields are shown here.
Filesystem: Storage base path
The base path where Filesystem storage backend saves data.
For maximum security, this path should be outside the folder tree served by the web server: this way files can't be downloaded bypassing the privacy checks.
Default value is storage, that is the storage folder in Friendica code root folder.
Maximum Image Size
Maximum size in bytes of uploaded images. The default is set to 0, which means no limits.

There are two ways to add your keys to #FileZilla.
You can add your keys inside the "Site Manager":
Protocol:
In the settings panel for a given site select sFTP:
Add the user name to log onto the server:
Browse for the .ppk you want to add and select it:
FileZilla offers you also to add .pem (privkey.pem) files, that's the #puTTy option for a file containing only the extracted private key of keyfile.ppk. At the same time FileZilla doesn't read/accept .pem files so it will prompt you to transform it into a .ppk file. If your .ppk is protected by a password (it should be), you get prompted to insert the password.
It is not clear if the newly created .ppk file from the .pem file by FileZilla is protected with the same password. It doesn't feel like that.
Save the changes and connect to your server.
The other option to add your key to FileZilla is by adding it directly to the main settings.
Choose SFTP and select the "Add key file" tab:
Add the key file and save.
If you use the input fields and quick connect options of the main FileZilla window, the keys saved in settings will be retrieved.
The best future proof Solution would be, use YouTube less and at some Point don't use it at all anymore.
Make use of other Platforms that are free from Corporate greed, like PeerTube or similar.
Urge your favorite Creators to take Action and also use/upload elsewhere.
That would be the first Step on a longer Journey of freeing the Internet from greedy Companies. 😉
friendica VPS setup on ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Hi,
I'm working on my first #friendica #VPS installation, here you'll find my initial post about general thoughts like what distro to use, size and costs.
I'm using the tutorial "creating a friendica server - ubuntu" by @Hank G ☑️.
As of now I'm doing well in the process and want to start this post to document differences and questions while installing the server.
This server is going to host an already existing friendica node I have to move from another hosting provider. That means that for example the DB doesn't have to be created from scratch but moved and other smaller details.
I will try to address the different steps of installation in answers to this post and appreciate help, ideas and observations.
I'm doing this from a #linux desktop environment from the console but there shouldn't be differences if you want to do this from a #windows machine.
Integrujte WordPress nejen s Mastodonem
Tento týden společnost Automattic oznámila dostupnost pluginu ActivityPub na Wordpress.com. Tento plugin si ale můžete nainstalovat i do vlastní instance Wordpressu, udělat ze svého blogu součást sítě Fediverse a přímo komunikovat nejen s uživateli Mastodonu. Přečtěte si, jak na to.

Okay, big news for everyone with a WordPress blog, including people with a free blog on wordpress.com!
You can now turn *any* WordPress blog into a Fediverse server which can be followed from Mastodon etc.
I've updated the instructions on how to do this at:
➡️ fedi.tips/wordpress-turning-yo…
Just to repeat, this is now available to ALL WordPress blogs including free tier ones. The free tier has slightly different instructions, but effect is same.

Místo Google Photos je super Immich. Mám ho také na serveru. Ten jsem chtěl nabízet za menší poplatek na provoz na subdoméně jmeno.mycloud.photos. Třeba někdo využije s rodinou.

I've been messing about with the Lemmy 🔁 Mastodon interop today and it has BLOWN MY MIND. 🤯
This excellent post from @vjprema explains how to use #Lemmy from your #Mastodon account. Amazing.

As @evan says, don't bet against the #fediverse.
This thing is 🔥.
Reddit exodus - Using Lemmy from my existing Mastodon
Many are turning to Lemmy as a viable Reddit alternative. Here is how to use your existing Mastodon account with Lemmy.Vijay Prema (Vijay Prema - The Mindful Technologist)
There's an alternative version of Mastodon called "Mastodon Glitch Edition" (aka "glitch-soc" or just "Glitch"). Glitch is totally compatible with normal Mastodon, but adds experimental new features.
For example, Glitch instances let the admin alter the character limit, allow local posting, text formatting and lots of other stuff.
Many features in Glitch have eventually made their way into normal Mastodon after proving themselves stable and useful.
You can find out more at:
If you run your own Mastodon instance you can switch to Glitch, and switch back again if you don't like it.
(You may be wondering how this post is so long? It's because FediTips is on an instance that uses Glitch, and the instance character limit has been extended to 1000.)
#FediTips #MastoTips #Fediverse #Mastodon #Glitch #GlitchSoc
“The fact that large platforms are adopting ActivityPub is not only validation of the movement towards decentralized social media, but a path forward for people locked into these platforms to switch to better providers. Which in turn, puts pressure on such platforms to provide better, less exploitative services. This is a clear victory for our cause, hopefully one of many to come.”
Famous last words.

What to know about Threads
There’s been a lot of speculation around what Threads will be and what it means for Mastodon. We’ve put together some of the most common questions and our responses based on what was launched today.Mastodon Blog
#Threads by #Meta forcing itself into the #Fediverse is bad and will harm the Fediverse as a whole if not straight up kill it.
I am baffled to see claims such as "we should give them a chance!" or "this could help the Fediverse grow!", as if we're not talking about one of the probably most immoral, unethical, and predatory businesses in this day and age.
Meta isn't coming to play fair. They're coming to use us for profit.

От себя тоже поприветствую всех пришедших и дам несколько советов.
✅ Заполните профиль и поставьте аватарку. Неплохой идеей будет указать там ваши увлечения или вид деятельности.
✅ Напишите что-нибудь: приветствие, пост о себе (тут используют тег #introduction
✅ Листайте ваши локальные и глобальные ленты, и подписывайтесь на тех, кто интересен - тут нет алгоритма, который будет подсовывать вам контент. Набрать свою ленту нужно будет самостоятельно. Также возможно вам будет полезно зайти в настройки и установить языки контента, которые вы хотите видеть в ленте.
✅ Общайтесь с людьми.
✅ Не бросайте как только Twitter опять даст заднюю - дайте свободным соцсетям шанс, они могут вас удивить.
Эти простые советы могут помочь вам не заскучать и заинтересовать других людей подписаться на вас.

#Mastodon #Fediverse #twitter #migration #TwitterMigration #log #новичкам #newbies
Hello, new folks from Twitter,
- Welcome to the fediverse!
- If you’ve joined mastodon.social because it was the default option in the app, please look to move to a smaller instance so mastodon.social doesn’t grow to become Twitter 2.0. (You can use instances.social to find a new instance or ask folks on here for suggestions.)
- Please add alternate text to your images so people who use screen readers can join in too. (accessibility.huit.harvard.edu…)
#TwitterMigration #mastodon #fediverse
Write good Alt Text to describe images
Alternative (Alt) Text is meant to convey the “why” of the image as it relates to the content of a document or webpage. It is read aloud to users by screen reader software, and it is indexed by search engines.accessibility.huit.harvard.edu
If the #Fediverse is going to see a #TwitterMigration2.0 ... please consider boosting #Calckey to newcomers.
calckey.org/join/
Calckey is a newer FOSS microblogging portal into the Fediverse. 100% interoperable with Mastodon, but with features Twitter users probably want:
* QTs (called "Quote Renotes")
* Support for markdown
in notes which is bold* Gallery for images
* "Antennas" to help discovery and "Channels" to help organize
Mastodonauts can also migrate to Calckey just as they would another Mastodon instance (that's what I did).
Just saying... the Fediverse doesn't revolve around Mastodon. This is open source social media. Don't stop migrating!
I only discovered the #fediverse this week because I stopped being able to conveniently access reddit.
Love the concept, still adapting to the execution.
This will probably only reach the void but: is there a community for professional chemists or laboratory workers like r/chempros or r/labrats?

oh, here's some JUICY rumored details about meta's plans for the fediverse
tl;dr "Meta will only federate with select larger instances from the beginning. There will be contracts which also provide for financial compensation for the instance owners."
can't entirely verify their validity but it's still worth posting just in case

@Nuno @amitten Well, I'd say it depends a lot on the concrete situation. Many #activitypub devs have seen how historically companies like Meta & Google have applied a Trojan horse strategy, to eventually take over the small spaces that decentralized and/or FOSS projects had opened. The #XMPP case comes to mind, but it also encompasses how the whole web has become.
If to put in place measures to avoid that happening to the #Fediverse is being a fanatic, long live the fanatics! 😃
Da bin ich ein Wochenende weniger online, weil ich anderweitig gearbeitet habe, und schon explodiert das #Fediverse und es geht um #Meta-Instanzen und sehr berechtigten Protest dagegen.
Ich bin ehrlich fassungslos.
@markus wir müssen uns für dresden.network mal mit was auseinander setzen.
Und falls es irgendwer vergessen haben sollte, warum das Fediverse so gut ist und funktioniert, wie es eben funktioniert, habe ich hier nochmal 2 meiner Sticker dabei.

Social Media? Machen wir selbst!
Kitsune is a new project that has joined the fediverse recently. It's mostly written in Rust and intends on Mastodon API compatibility so it can use the existing app ecosystem. It also just got initial support for viewing full PeerTube and Lemmy posts!
You can learn more at joinkitsune.org, and you can follow the development from here at @dev, which is being posted from a Kitsune server! Here is an example post on a live server you can look at as well dev.joinkitsune.org/posts/0188… #fediverse
