Love this clip from @molly0xfff's Fediverse House talk:

"Imagine for a moment a web where communities can create their own spaces while still simultaneously and seamlessly interoperating with others. Think of it like a network of independent neighborhoods, each with its own character and rules, but with shared community spaces, art galleries and libraries.

"In this web, you control what you create and decide how it's shared.The algorithms that shape that experience, they're transparent and customizable. You can peek under the hood or tweak them to your liking or replace them entirely if they're not serving your needs. If you're sharing a space with a group of others and you disagree with how they run that space, you can leave, but you can take your work and your community with you.

"This isn't just a dream. This is already happening. Take Mastodon and the broader Fediverse, where millions of people are building communities that talk to each other across servers and platforms."

Ok, maybe we'll get some movement soon by the EU on embracing Mastodon / #fediverse

January 20th is, for many, a normal day.

However, we must acknowledge that a year ago today, the US saw a shift in power which has (unfortunately) rippled across the globe.

A year on, we think it's fair to say that, whilst we are still horrified by the decisions, language, and actions of the US administration (and beyond), the initial hopelessness is beginning to dissipate.

We're fighting back, finding new ways to come together, and staying strong.

The redesigned profile fields are now on mastodon.social.

I wasn't too sure when I first saw the mockups, but I'm starting to like this.

#mastodon #ProfileFields #fediverse #design #UXUI

So, I'm documenting different ways fediverse platforms protect the privacy of individuals and posts through included flags like indexable and discoverable.

But where those are lacking, or as an attempt to add more customization to those privacy options, some people add hashtags to their profile, like nosearch or noindex

Bonfire has just released a new version, which includes initial support for Mastodon API endpoints (interested how this will work, as Bonfire has sooo many more post control options)

And…initial work on an ActivityPub C2S API!
