fediverse
Just published a guide on setting up Snac on an Ubuntu VM using NGINX Proxy Manager. Snac is an incredibly lightweight #ActivityPub server. A true nom nom among fediverse platforms.
If you're curious about minimal fediverse instances, check it out:
Exciting update on #BotKit: we've introduced a new Repository abstraction layer that provides cleaner data access. While previously data operations went directly through KvStore, they now go through Repository—improving separation of concerns and making the codebase more maintainable. Don't worry though—there are no breaking changes to the public API that BotKit users rely on!
Key benefits:
Better abstraction over data sources
Cleaner internal architecture
Fully backwards compatible
Check out our docs for the technical details: https://botkit.fedify.dev/concepts/repository.

I just launched a new shirt design! Purchasing one of these ensures two things:
1. You look awesome.
2. You support this Retro Gaiden Mastodon instance
I have more ideas for future designs, but I'm quite happy with how this one turned out!

Feel free to check out the other designs in the store.
I’m doing a #Fediverse break to focus on my writing. I will post less and not actively monitor my feed. I will probably not see your notifications.

📢 Important announcement! #BotKit's #GitHub repository has moved to a new home! 🏠
The repository is now located at @fedify-dev/botkit (previously @dahlia/botkit). All future development will continue at the new location.
Don't worry—everything's the same, just a new address! Please update your bookmarks and project references. Thanks for being part of our community!

The #Hollo repository has moved from @dahlia/hollo to @fedify-dev/hollo! Along with this move, our #Docker image registry has also been relocated from ghcr.io/dahlia/hollo to ghcr.io/fedify-dev/hollo.
While the old image registry will remain accessible, it won't receive any new tags. We recommend all Hollo users to update their Docker image references to the new registry address.
To update your Docker configurations, please change:
From: ghcr.io/dahlia/hollo:latest
To: ghcr.io/fedify-dev/hollo:latest
The migration ensures better project organization and continued development. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in making this transition smooth!

We are moving our profile to a new instance; followers will be moved along automatically. Should this not work for some reason for your account, please find us again and follow manually at @mpsgoettingen
Dear @sebinthestars, https://astrodon.social was right there when the #fediverse adventure started for many of us in 2022, before the MPDL instance existed (now gone again already) and also before https://academiccloud.social was there. Your efforts have allowed us, and many others, to make a wonderfully cozy home in the fediverse, and fedi being fedi, we'll now be able to move along seamlessly to our new home on https://academiccloud.social. Thank you SO MUCH for everything you've done for the community in the past two and a half years; for allowing us to share the joy and excitement of discovery. You have been a great host, and we are probably not alone in hoping to continue to see you somewhere on here in the future. 🔭 ✨

Today @fedify launched an @opencollective to support the project.
@hongminhee has been doing amazing work on it.
Fedify has shown itself to be one of the most promising ways for other projects to become part of the #fediverse. If you liked seeing Ghost (@index) make such fast progress bringing in potentially thousands (millions?) of blogs and newsletters to the fediverse, this is what they are using behind the scenes! So lets support this project together!

Ückück und das #Fediverse: Wie gut ist unser #Onboarding?
Gestern kam mein neuer Kolumnen-Beitrag bei @gnulinux raus und ist hier auf dem Communuty-Blog zum Nachlesen und -hören zu finden:

P.S.: Spannend fand ich ja, wie unterschiedlich das Feedback im Fedi und in den Kommentaren unter dem Artikel wieder ausgefallen sind.

TheBlower.au is a general Mastodon server based in Australia. Do you need to sort it out? Get on The Blower, a public social network site that’s part of a global federation! You don’t have to be Australian to post here, but it helps.
You can find out more at https://theblower.au/about or contact the admin @geton

Does anyone have any experience with both #NodeBB 's and #Discourse 's #ActivityPub / #Fediverse integrations? I am wondering what each can and cannot do. I am familiar with NodeBB's federation but not with Discourse's one. It would be great if there was a comparison chart, but I haven't managed to find anything like that. Thanks!
We’re looking for topics to research and create #fediverse tutorials on.
Comment and let us know what questions you wish there was a video to explain.

This is great - @fedify has launched an @opencollective to help sustain the project. This is a great library and framework that is helping many other projects grow into the #fediverse. Shout-out to @hongminhee! (also to @liaizon for posting about it as well)
Kia ora fedizens, a few months ago I was shoulder-tapped to take on stewardship of fediverse.party. One of a bunch of websites that aim to gather lots of useful info about the fediverse in one place. This is a project I've been a casual contributor to for years, and I really want to see it maintained. So I said yes.

Do I remember correctly that there was some conversation around #Bluesky considering a native #ActivityPub support?
Hello #fediverse - this is GBH #News bringing you the world from #Boston. It's 27F at Logan Airport and visibility is 10 mi.
Trump administration freezes on federal loans and grants have been unfrozen.
Another Trump executive order seeks to restrict how race and racism is taught in schools and to "promote patriotic education."
A passenger plane and a military helicopter crashed over the Potomac; there are 27 known casualties of the midair collision.
IceShrimp.NET has a new beta release, and the front end UI is starting to catch up to the back end. Including everyone's favorite, MFM! (Well, maybe not everybody, but between instances with support, it sure is fun in moderation)

We could all do with more music from independent artists in our lives, so I wrote about how I'm trying to help with that, in my own small way. #Fediverse #TheIndieBeat #Bandwagon #Linux
A day in the European Parliament, thread
I am totally mindblown, seriously feeling like I am on another planet.
For the first time in my life, I set foot inside the #EuropeanParliament, welcomed by Benedetta Scuderi, the most awesome Member of the European Parliament (#MEP), who I am so honored to be calling my friend.
As she is super busy, I just had the chance to chat with her over a quick lunch in the canteen of the parliament (what an incredible place). I basically talked about the #Fediverse non-stop ahahahah
After that, it was marvellous to walk around that immense building together with Benni’s super lovely assistants, who were so kind to allow me to accompany them while they were busy doing 4385904 things.
🧵 This is the first post of a thread narrating my very atypical but wholesome #ParliamentSightseeing experience.
