@ansuz LMAO, luckily we're on the same page that it's an empty threat so it's not too bad. :P I'm also excited for all the "I told you so" opportunities I have every time centralized social media is shitty.

I'm SUPER excited to announce the launch of Rad Reader! 🤩

A calm tool (OSX, Linux & Windows; 6MB & Electron-free!) for reading and following RSS feeds. I've been working on this for the past months during spare time and it's my first journey in making something polished enough to sell!

To celebrate its launch the price is reduced to 4.95 USD (34% off) for the rest of the week! If that feels like a lot, please try the free demo!!

Boosts very much appreciated!

Lol, my friends have taken to teasing my by threatening to join Threads and avoid any other fediverse platform I've tried to shill to them. :P

At least I know one of them has my toots in their RSS so they can see me passive agressively subtoot about it. 😈

It's pretty effective at dealing my psychic damage though, NGL.

Dang I think I'd really like to be able to follow hashtags though

well, I updated sit on with the patch for the recent vulnerability but I was they'll too lazy to upgrade to the new major release 😛

MakerTube is now open for public registrations! It's a #peertube video instance for makers, musician, artists and DIY content creators. If you thought of trying out a video platform besides big corp now is the time!

Join in makertube.net or any other instance and let's make peertube a place as great as Mastodon.

Please boost this post! Share your creations! Let's build alternatives that stay!

Yes this is a major cope on the fact that I have had to use so many open source libraries with zero docs 😭

Docs are nice but really I prefer reading source code at this point because it paints such an intimate picture of how the code wants to be used. At least usually! Sometimes I just have no clue what's going on in there. 🤣

This is a warning about Meta and Threads.

Please boost this here and outside of Mastodon so that pregnant people in the United States are informed that using Meta/Threads is dangerous.

I'm unlikely to get pregnant but I have ZERO presence on Meta/Facebook/Instagram/Threads as a matter of principle.

@dym that's probably possible with a custom gateway or http server. one limitation I'm dealing with however is publicly run Ipfs gateways which have very simple logic so I think the most I could do is convince them to adopt some new mime types. ideally I would like to make it possible to resolve an identity from any gateway.

another approach that I have been thinking about is that we could focus less on web finger and more linking directly to the profiles page

@dym not sure. I would love that as an option though! The way mastodon and other fedi instances treat webfinger might vary accross the board. Hypothetically any username @staticpub.mauve.moe should resolve to the same thing

I just want to slide in here and comment: "The data" is terribly vague here. What you get from ActivityPub is at worst: the likes, the shares, the posts, the social graph.

What you don't get is data like: How long did this person spend looking at something? Or more pointedly said. There has been this screenshot of Threads app permissions circulating. Consuming the firehose from ActivityPub gives you lots of data, but still a lot less than you would get with all these permissions.

He he he 😈 I got my first statically published blog to load! Still need to work on the inbox server and get post resolving wired up but I'm happy with the progress so far. @mauve@staticpub.mauve.moe

This is also being published on protocols on ipns://staticpub.mauve.moe/abo

One limitation is you can only one account per domain.

This is being published using and is part of our upcoming integration.

I think it's about time I made a better task tracking system for myself. Been particularly chaotic lately.

@glitchontwitch Yeah big mood. One hope I have is that the non-algorithmic nature of fedi stuff could lead to better RoI per user once there's enough users for that to be viable.

I totally agree that numbers and potential customers seeing your work is important for people to make their livelyhoods on social media.
