Dang pretty frustrating that doesn't attempt to load a users's post from their ActivityPub data when you load their profile for the first time. This leads to profiles being empty until you follow them, and even then you just get any new posts.

Seems to have been an issue people have wanted addressed since 2016. 😬

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.

The first version of the PomoDB (Rhizome Database) high level spec is up! github.com/RhizomeDB/spec

@quinn is working hard on getting the initial code into people's hands, too!

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

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.

The year is 2025, there is now one social network for every twelve people in the world, each dedicated to discussing the other social networks that are available

it's genuinely wild how we heard nothing but long winded platitudes on how innovative silicon valley was for like 20 straight years and it's all culminated in a bunch of the dullest, most petulant billionaires imaginable all just copying each other's version of a very basic chat app

Any interested in joining a instance? i'm thinking it'd be a good way to onboard folks interested in that format and to create more local community.
