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 https://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 😭
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! https://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
This is also being published on #p2p protocols on ipns://staticpub.mauve.moe/about.jsonld
One limitation is you can only #webfigner one account per domain.
This is being published using #DistributedPress and is part of our upcoming #ActivityPub integration.
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
A programmer is just a machine that turns #Golang code into deadlocks. :P
More #JavaScript folks should consider using the SharedWorker API in their app. Especially if you have particularly heavy initializing code.
E.g. instead of Element loading everything from scratch each time you open it in a tab, it could have the bulk of the resources shared across tabs in a worker and have speedier inits that don't block the render thread.

When I started on Mastodon, people would advise me to “only Boost posts.” Since there’s no algorithm that places a value on Favorites, “only Boosts have value.”
I disagree completely.
When people Favorite my posts, they unwittingly introduce themselves to me. I have discovered some very interesting people that I may not have if they didn’t Favorite my posts.
Keep ‘em coming. It’s nice to meet you.
Does anybody on here know of an instance dedicated to Black queer folks? I'm not necessarily planning on moving but I am curious since apart from blacktwitter.io and wibblur I haven't even seen much that's even focused on Black communities. And if there isn't one/aren't many... Is that something people would be interested in? 👀 Edit: well, I went ahead and spent most of the past day making one. https://blackqueer.life is the name. Check it out!
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
Exploring what a local-first cyberspace might look like in my spare time.
