gah, really wish I could attach a picture *and* an audio file to the same post an audio file is pretty necessary to give people an idea of what they're in for, but not having the picture in the post makes it really unpopular

Und den Song dazu

( Zwinker, Zwinker)
Außerdem finden wir euch ganz toll.

Just found out about @fix_it by Miguel_B! He's a friend and I didn't even know he had a #Peertube ! It's a channel about #repairing all kinds of things! Go follow!

Following on from our touring question, we found this amazing site for supporting #DIY spaces, organizers, #musicians, performers, writers, activists, and other like-minded folks. Would love to see them on the #Fediverse.

I don't think this #ChrisHedges interview with #YashaLevine got quite the response I expected it would from #Fedi when I first posted it. Which is strange because it's about how the #internet was specifically created as a tool for #surveillance.

And that includes things like #TOR.

I think the interview is certainly worth a watch.

Thank you once again to @pluralistic for joining me on #FiresideFedi ! It was an incredible honor to have him!

Please check the following for the conversation and if it's showing an error, just give it a bit to transcode, we aren't Big Tech! :-D And PROUD of it! :-)

I was just thinking, how do #Youtuber #upload their #videos to #YouTube right now? Are their any open source #YT #uploaders? If so, how do we get #Peertube support in them to allow people to do an upload once and it go to multiple places? That way we lower the bar to entry of Peertube, while having a direct onboarding and exposure to the #Fediverse.

altbot development stuff

hey fedi sooo it's been like 2 months since i updated anything and figured i should be real with y'all, my motivation for coding has been absolutely tanking lately, especially with altbot

it's this annoying cycle where the more i struggle with the code, the more anxious i get, which just makes everything worse lol

still give a shit about making the fedi more accessible tho! had all these big plans for integration and other stuff but yeah... brain just isn't cooperating

trying to get back into it with small commits or whatever. thanks for not giving up on this project

if anyone wants to jump in and help with some PRs, my github is always open. seriously, there's some pretty simple features waiting to be added that would be fucking awesome to see implemented

btw setting up a dev environment for altbot is super easy. my dms are open if you wanna know more about the project or need help getting set up. might actually help me get excited about it again too

who knows, maybe talking about all the cool shit we could build will kickstart my brain again? worth a shot

I'm already getting very excited for tonight! For those that don't know, I'm going to be talking with @pluralistic , Cory Doctorow, tonight on Fireside Fedi! If anyone has any questions feel free to message me here.

If you'd like to watch LIVE, please come and join us! If you don't know Cory, you should, but you probably know the term "enshitification" which Cory termed. As well as having many many other accolades.

Please share this out, not for my own fame, but I see these opportunities as ways to introduce new folks to the Fediverse and get excitement about it.

Everyone have a wonderful day!

There once was a #limerick for hashes,
While AIs are stuck on em-dashes,
But here on the #fedi
It’s all retro-steady,
And I don’t mean C : backslashes.

#LimerickAnything
#HashTagGames

#Fedi, I need your help.

I'm raising £8,125 to introduce #Leicester to ethical, decentralised platforms like #Mastodon.

I want to:

Launch a Mastodon instance for local people

Run workshops in schools teaching safe social networking

Champion the #fediverse in the indie #media sector

Don’t let #BigTech and #billionaires kill #LocalNews. Can you help us reach our target of 25 new lifetime members by mid-June?

You can join no matter where you live.

Donate: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/join-the-fight-against-big-tech?ref=leicester.news

Sharing for the evening crowd.

The fine @michael has deployed the #FediAlgo demo app to a place where you can test out the customizable algorithm + filtering system for your home timeline with nothing more than a web browser. You can find it here:

Here's a video of the FediAlgo demo in action (there's a few new features since the video): https://universeodon.com/@cryptadamist/114395249311910522
