@dsfgs hmm. I wonder if I can get this in China without a VPN.

@Tryphon is Wales actually doing a federated project though?

@fitheach ... or I could just go for Wordpress.com, or ... or ... or ... 😏

@icedquinn
> a shame they have ldap disabled on all of them though.

Why no #LDAP on @yunohost ? @tofeo @guygoye
@yojimbo @kenton

@icedquinn
> FreedomBone appears to be packing Gogs instead of Gitea, which is a little weird since Gogs is pseudo-corpsified.

What's your reasoning there @bob ?
@yojimbo @kenton

Sometimes it seems like about half of political discourse consists of making excuses for things humans do at scale, despite almost universally agreeing in private that we need to stop doing them. In this single phrase, Tool cuts through all of that, revealing just how deeply crazy it is when humans kill each other over territory and the resources it contains.

"Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground"

Do you want to help people find up-to-date information about apps that respect their #SoftwareFreedom? The #FSD (Free Software Directory) is a project hosted by the #FSF that aims to do just that:
https://directory.fsf.org/

There is a constant need more volunteers to help add entries for software that's not listed yet ,and update the information for existing entries. I'm sure suggestions for how to automate aspects of the update process for new versions etc would be welcome too.

@musafir is it confirmed that it's her actual account and not an impersonator?
@somyalakhani

@clacke surely Titter and other responsible social media platforms would only suspend someone for being an actual fascist, planning violence. I mean, there's no way normalizing that could lead to creeping censorship of people whose free speech leftists approve of. Any suggesting that is clearly an alarmist ... </sarcasm>

Feeling the #CassandraComplex hard today ...

@seven @msh what is it you folks don't like about #Docker and running web services using containers?

Thanks for the heads-up @xavavu , I've added Zap to the AP watchlist on our wiki:
https://gitlab.com/fediverse/fediverse.gitlab.io/wikis/watchlist-for-activitypub-apps
@lightone

@xavavu given this, how likely is it that the work done on #Zap to develop newer version(s) of #Zot, and move AP support into core, will be backported to #Hubzilla? I've heard that when Hubzilla hubs use the federation plug-in to support AP, Diaspora, and OStatus, it breaks #NomadicIdentity.
@lightone

@xavavu that's great news. So if GNU social can get their AP implementation stabilized, all that remains is someone writing an implementation for Diaspora ;)
@lightone

@Tryphon a little research would have also found XMPP, OStatus, Diaspora, Wave, Zot, Matrix, and others, as well as a multitude of #blockchain social networks, and the corpses of Appleseed, OneSocialWeb, Tent, OpenBook, and many others. Speaking as someone who's been researching all this for my blog and fediverse.party for years, it's an incredibly confusing space for newcomers, even those with years of web dev experience.

@billstclair
absolutely, this "Linux" thing will never fly. Most servers will always run on Windows ... oh wait 😏 Also GNU/Linux may not have replaced Windows on the desktop, but more people work in browsers than desktops anyway (Firefox and Chromium derivations dominate browser space), and the vast majority of new computers are mobiles, where Android/Linux and iThing/BSD kicked Windows' arse. TV companies and MySpace will tell you incumbent advantage only gets you so far.

So do I, but this doesn't catch stuff that is non-commercial but just wasteful of RAM, because JS devs get to outsource the RAM overhead to clients. When you've got people deploying stuff like Wordpress themes, which they don't even know are serving scripts from third-party domains, it doesn't take too many open tabs for RAM to start getting dangerously full.

... is Firefox.

@dsfgs how does RT do with covering the ongoing colonialism of the Russian Federation? 😏

@dsfgs these days OpenOffice is just the remnants abandoned at the Apache Foundation, after OO's parent company (Sun) was acquired by Oracle, and most of the OO community left to form the #DocumentFoundation.

@fitheach *sigh* try again in a few minutes. CoActivate has become very unstable over the years. I need to move my blog, but torn between picking playing hosting roulette again and learning to self-host.
