While I’m all for people moving away from platforms like Twitter and embracing more freedom- and privacy-centric systems such as Mastodon, I do worry that many of them might be doing it purely for ideological reasons and may have no interest in maintaining the respectful atmosphere Mastodon is well-known for.

**So many different “clever” and “funny” takes around here lately, comparing “Twitter vs. Mastodon” with “Windows vs. Linux”, making fun of ‘the year of Linux in the desktop’…

…an I still wonder why would anyone freely and willingly choose to use Windows over GNU/Linux. 🤷‍♂️**

I’m quite curious about this “Ghosts from the Library”. Medawar edits the collection “Bodies from the Library” (which I recommend) and this idea of going through old newspapers to recover serialised stories or finding never published before ones is quite appealing.

**I’m not sure I’m too interested into participating in twitter’s exodus by getting a mastodon account - instead, I’ve decided that this is the right moment to stop procrastinating and finally do something about my twtxt presence.

Some IndieWeb protocols are complicated and there are sometimes no programming libraries to simplify the use of them, but ActivityPub is another beast. Although the standard is documented, the way the specific implementations (Mastodon etc.) work often isn’t and it’s hard to debug. So huge respect for the big rework. 👍 ⌘ Read more

GoToSocial seems like a promising alternative to Mastodon. It’s written in Go (👍 in my opinion), lightweight and pretty good documented so far. It’s still “alpha software” but seems to make great progress. In the past, I self hosted a microblog.pub instance and then after some time without any Fediverse profile other than my blog, which has ActivityPub support as well, signed up at Fosstodon to be able to reply to blog comments from the Fediverse. I already set up an instace of GTS, but will probably wait to use it … ⌘ Read more

↳ In-reply-to » @prologic I do think the post about how to setup jenny + mutt over on the uninformativ.de blog is still a great post. I used that post to see the steps to set it up and it works fine. Though I can write some blog post with some more documentation for things like auto publishing. The big issue with plain twtxt is that I would have not seen your post unless I looked on twtxt.net when I was looking at yarn a little bit more. Twtxt does overcome the issue by introducing the registry but I can't figure out any way to use them for Jenny and almost no one uses them in the first place. So I can't see anyones replies or mentions unless I am following them. Yarn does overcome the issue by friends of friends as you would know as the creator of yarn.

@prologic@twtxt.net That is why yarn is better then something like activity pub. Everything over on activity pub tries to work with Mastodon not because its better but because its the most popular. Twtxt clients on the other hand tries to work with the yarn additions because most of the additions improve things even for twtxt users.

↳ In-reply-to » got jenny setup and threads works completly fine but now I want to figure out how to get auto publishing working

@prologic@twtxt.net I never tried out any of the other clients except jenny with mutt. The best thing about yarn vs something like Mastodon is that its more promoted of the specification of twtxt files instead of server part. Twtxt can be hosted on some free static site host or some git server even so its really low resouces. Just a basic text file. As far as I know yarn is mostly just a web ui around twtxt and an extnetion to the specification to add some more usability and modern things. Anyone can join decentrilized network by having a twtxt file somewhere. If you want to support the specification of twtxt then that is really something most projects don’t do and they promote the server software mostly.

JMP: Togethr: Soprani.ca Social
Last week we launched a sister product from the same team that brings you JMP: Togethr.  Why are we launching a second product?  Why now?  What does this have to do with the mission of JMP in particular, or the Sopranica project in general?

Togethr is a managed hosting platform for small Fediverse instances.  It is powered by the ActivityPub protocol that powers Mastodon, PeerTube, and so many others.  While there are sev … ⌘ Read more
