I have a question for people who use #tailscale for their home network. From what I understand, identities are bound to the IdP I chose and that IdP can not be changed without creating a new network.
So my question. Are you all running your own IdPs or do you use gmail or github and live with the fact that you will have to reconfigure a whole bunch of things if you ever switch providers?

I'd like to have a search box in a pinned blogpost at https://write.underworld.fr/settima.
Does anyone have a good lead as how to add a search box to a #WriteFreely blog? Samples on the forum reference Glitch (now defunct) and #WriteAs (not the same as WF). DDG would be okay but any non-US search engine is preferred.
Are there any good listings of small indie blogs anywhere? Like, blogs that publish at least somewhat regularly. Ideally as like an .opml file or something, all organized that I can import into my feed reader.
I really wanna follow more people that talk about queer topics and other human-related stuff. I've got quite enough of tech and politics in my reading diet. I need more that's literature or personal writing or things of that nature. Any advice?
Is there a way to block registrations from any e-mail that has a subdomain in it? #AskFedi #MastoAdmin
What are we using as an alternate email client on iOS these days?
General client only, not specific to one email service provider.
No "AI inbox!" folderol. Or AI anything, tbh.
iOS only. This is for a specific phone.
sooo it's been a month of me on the fediverse, and i'm enjoying my time very much. what are some tips you have to boost my experience?
A dolmen near busy roads in Galway, Ireland (Gaillimh, Éire)
Is this an ancient dolmen or relatively new?

Bf wants to get into mushroom synth music (where ppl plug mushrooms into CV jacks) and asked what he needs. I said I hope you've got 10,000€ for the modular synth rabbithole, but speculated that for starters, getting just an oscillator and drawing the rest of the fucking owl doing filtering etc in post might be an option.
So #modularsynth peeps, I ask you:
if anyone still has copies of ANY of the audio from G7 Welcoming Committee Records' podcast from circa 2007
you would make my day
I think it was called #G7Radio
it was so funny. were they hamming it up or did they really hate each other that much
boost OK especially to media hoarder friends, who are punks, and probably from an anglo-Canadian background, and maybe usefully from #Winnipeg

#askFedi Do you know of speech-to-text live transcription models that:
1. perform OK for lightly technical English speech, in near-real-time,
2. have available (ideally libre/open-source) training data, libre/open-source training code, libre/open-source inference code, and/or libre/open-source weights (ideally some amount of freedom to use/study/modify/distribute; e.g. the Open Source AI Definition)
Glanced at:
april-asr: probably best candidate so far; somewhat below quality expectations on my laptop (tested with https://flathub.org/en/apps/net.sapples.LiveCaptions; quality/performance is configurable; maybe I should run it on a more powerful server and check if it's better?)
OpenAI Whisper: no training data/code
Vosk official model: not sure about training data/code, not sure about weights
Mozilla DeepSpeech: Archived
CoquiSTT: Looks abandoned

So #Buffer shit the bed for me, does anyone else have things to where I can pipe my RSS feed into and it spits out stuff to my Fediverse account when I am sleeping? I already got Webhooks set up via IFTTT, but also does anyone know of #Fediverse things that has native RSS imports? Like, to where I rely on IFTTT less? Because IFTTTs Enshittification is starting to happen. #AskFedi
I enjoyed the song but disagree with the "this would never get made today" sentiment. There's so much music out there. I'm positive we can find similar stuffs being made today, Fedi friends. If you've got an example to share, post it in the comments 🙏
Quick question: What's the current 'verdict' re https://ghostarchive.org/ ?
Especially in lieu of the loss of trust wrt archive.is/.ph/.today
[Wikipedia has a pretty good rundown of that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Archive.today_guidance & general info https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archive.today - tl;dr it's complicated and depends]
[I know ghostarchive has no process to circumvent paywalls; and I'm completely fine with that]
Hey y'all. Does the follower count matter to you ? And do you use it as a measurement of how trustworthy someone is here on Mastodon?
I'm just curious. I know I can look it up but I like having additional source of info.
Boosts aren't mandatory but appreciated. Besides I'll make my own conclusions eventually...

I understand not everyone likes being called a "creator" nor "content creator" I don't mean anything negative by it. But, I'd really like to know some of your favorite artists, creators, bloggers, Peertubers, podcasters, vloggers, vtubers, YouTubers that are on #Fediverse #OpenSocialWeb #askfedi #askfediverse #creators #boostforreach
