If site admins go toxic or a server is circling the drain, you won’t be trapped. You can just pick up and move elsewhere.
That’s the Fediverse’s killer feature, the one corporate social media can never match: the freedom to walk away.
Sunny.garden is a Mastodon server for indie creators who draw, paint, sculpt, write, design, program, play, sing or build, and anyone else who thinks that sounds like a nice place to be.
This server has a post size of up to 1500 characters.
You can find out more at https://sunny.garden/about or contact the admin account @brook

Hey friends. Just an update, for some reason, my account migration to the new account didn’t transfer all my followers.
The Mastodon devs are looking at it but haven’t found anything.
If you follow me on this account, please switch to following me over at @cyberseckyle.

Loops is built for the people, but we haven't forgot the admins.
We've added some pretty innovative features, like Pages that allow you to add/edit/publish rich pages and optionally add them to the main sidebar nav or footer and limit visibility to guests, users or both.
I appreciate your patience while we prepare Loops for you, and you'll soon see, it was worth the wait 🚀
More #Geosocial coming..

@bonfire request feedback on #UX designs for #Bonfire Geosocial.
https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/please-provide-feedback-on-bonfire-geosocial-ux-designs/5427
The designs may also be inspiring to other devs working on #Geo functionality for the #fediverse and there's opportunity to align approaches for max #interoperability.
People are highly encouraged to start related more general discussion topics on improving protocol support for geosocial-enabled #ActivityPub platforms in the federated forum categories.
Good day everyone!

got a nice supporter donation today, now I feel I'm really in the #fediverse ecosystem!
With the launch of Ghost 6.0, every publication that runs on Ghost becomes part of the #fediverse. You can follow and comment on Platformer or 404 Media articles without leaving your Mastodon feed. This is the future of social media.
Congratulations to @johnonolan and all the team at Ghost!
Thanks to @mapache , FediCon has badges.
During (and a week or so before) FediCon I got extremely swamped with FediCon work that had to get done before the day of the conference — so, I haven't had a chance to reward people with badges, yet.
Once I've uploaded the FediCon videos (to @fedicon ) I am going to start rewarding people FediCon 2025 badges.

"A guide to implement ActivityPub in a static site (or any website)" by @mapache
https://maho.dev/2024/02/a-guide-to-implement-activitypub-in-a-static-site-or-any-website/
Something to SNS providers and software can learn from the gaming industry is name filters.
Majority, if not all, online #games implement a RegExp-based or manual input name blocklist. In the socmed landscape, software like Mastodon should implement it to prevent any handles **and** display names with "Mastodon" in it.
Instance admins and moderators should be able to add new entries as they see fit. They can choose between RegExp matching or manual input.
It is an effective way to minimize fake accounts pretending to be the platform, instance, service, and/or software. For example, the Mastodon **software** is currently being bombarded by fake accounts about "Mastodon account verification", with "Mastodon" in either their handle or display name, or both.
Other social media software and platforms should implement it as well. Of course, it is not the ultimate solution, but it at least adds another layer to enable admins and moderators to fight against scammers and phishers pretending to be official accounts or channels.

A friend of mine, @siliconsjang, released SiliconBeest v1.0.0 today. It's a #fediverse server built on #Cloudflare Workers, D1, R2, and Queues, using Fedify.
I like the starting point: after watching fediverse servers go down together during Cloudflare outages, they thought, why not just run on Cloudflare directly?
They're aiming for something cheap enough that a small instance can stay on Cloudflare's free plan, and a somewhat bigger one can fit in the $5/month tier. It's still early; a lot is missing, and Mastodon/Misskey API compatibility is more of a long-term goal.
I'm glad to see Fedify put to use for something like this. Worth checking out.
The source code is on GitHub under AGPL 3.0.

Do you know there's a #fediverse alternative to Amazon-owned #goodreads ? #Bookwyrm is a social network for tracking your reading, writing reviews, and discovering what to read next. You can follow and interact with users on different #Bookwyrm instances and on #mastodon . You can import from a Goodreads CSV export. You can create private shelves and curated lists. Join us at https://ramblingreaders.org or choose one of the other instances available #books #reading #bookstodon @bookstodon
All projects that I maintain are visible at https://tom79.dev/
#UntrackMe 2.0 reached F-Droid today after nearly 4 years of inactivity.
#Fedle reached more than 2k games played on the #Fediverse (I didn't expect that for a dev for fun).
Thank you for using them :)
Fedify 2.0.0 is here!
This is the biggest release in Fedify's history. Here are the highlights:
Modular architecture — The monolithic @fedify/fedify package has been broken up into focused, independent packages: @fedify/vocab, @fedify/vocab-runtime, @fedify/vocab-tools, @fedify/webfinger, and more. Smaller bundles, cleaner imports, and the ability to extend ActivityPub with custom vocabulary types.
Real-time debug dashboard — The new @fedify/debugger package gives you a live dashboard at /__debug__/ showing all your federation traffic: traces, activity details, signature verification, and correlated logs. Just wrap your Federation object and you're done.
ActivityPub relay support — First-class relay support via @fedify/relay and the fedify relay CLI command. Supports both Mastodon-style and LitePub-style relay protocols (FEP-ae0c).
Ordered message delivery — The new orderingKey option solves the “zombie post” problem where a Delete arrives before its Create. Activities sharing the same key are guaranteed to be delivered in FIFO order.
Permanent failure handling — setOutboxPermanentFailureHandler() lets you react when a remote inbox returns 404 or 410, so you can clean up unreachable followers instead of retrying forever.
Other changes include content negotiation at the middleware level, @fedify/lint for shared linting rules, @fedify/create for quick project scaffolding, CLI config files, native Node.js/Bun CLI support, and many bug fixes.
This release includes significant contributions from Korea's OSSCA participants. Huge thanks to everyone involved!
This is a major release with breaking changes—please check the migration guide before upgrading.
