soc.octade.net is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Today is the first ever WebSocialBR 🇧🇷
Online and on the ground in Brasília, the event has been put together by @rede
We've recently been working with the Brazilian Institute of Museums who will be in attendance and talking about our work together. Then, at 7pm GMT @evan & @j12t will be hosting a panel!
We hope that their hard work to grow the Social Web in Brazil culminates in wider adoption.

Someone on mastodon.ie wanted to follow me but I left them hanging because their only post after years on Masto was a boost of my post. Seemed suspicious. Then I realized that they actually have lots of posts only I can't see them.
Even after allowing them to follow me, I can only see their posts by clicking the hidden option, "Open original page," which seems to bring me to another dimension.
Anyone know what's happening here?
Huh. Just chatted in person with someone who's been on #mastodon for a while, now, who honestly thought that all the Mastodon domains were run by Mastodon. And having a different domain was, like, just a vanity thing to look cool. It only came up because they were complaining about an issue they were having, and they were on a smaller server (not naming it for anonymity), so I suggested contacting their server admin about the problem. I was surprised when they answered "Dude nobody at big companies reads those reports. It just all goes to AI or whatever." It took some actual convincing to get them to believe that the server they're on does, in fact, have a living breathing human admin who can be talked to. Anyway, folks, support your

It seems that a lot of good people are thinking about this right now, for good reason.

Does anyone here use tut as their Mastodon client of choice? Any customization tips? For those not familiar, see <https://tut.anv.nu/>. Forgive the color scheme that thinks its CGA, that's the first thing I fixed.

ffs. i was wondering why my timeline has been so quiet since i moved from dialup.cafe to tomodori.net. i assumed it was some kind of federation issue
as it turns out, mastodon only imported about 25% of my follow list. i had noticed the import crashed halfway through, but i assumed it was some kind of job that would resume itself after a failure. it apparently did not 😩
i just went through 22k posts and manually followed back as many people as i could figure out how to. some accounts/instances are gone, so i'm sure i've missed many. if you just got a rando follow from me, that's why.

For my recent birthday, I was gifted a copy of Move Slowly and Build Bridges: Mastodon, the Fediverse, and the Struggle for Democratic Social Media by @rwg which I'd wanted for a while, and I'm loving it so far. Also a first attempt of printing and forming the nifty zine by @docpop thanks to his very helpful instructions. Democratic, decentralised social media ftw! (Actually, I've learnt that a better term is "non-centralised"!) #Mastodon #Fediverse #SocialMedia
Or is the plan to ultimately support moving from anywhere in the Fediverse to anywhere in the Fediverse, including e.g. from ActivityPub-based Mastodon to Nomad-based but ActivityPub-enabled (streams) that works drastically different from Mastodon?

‘The algorithm hates me,’ my latest from #Overmorrow.
An algorithmic timeline is NOT part of this balanced breakfast.

Personally, fuck the person who's idea it was for #Mastodon to show you a post that you are tagged in, only to make it immediately disappear when clicked on because it's author blocked you after making it.
I'd really like to find a way to migrate a domain (and existing account & posts) between two pieces Fediverse server software, keeping all post urls.
Not the existing Move feature - that assumes new & old servers are running in parallel at different urls.
I want to take a backup from Mastodon, stop the server, convert all the toots to some common format, start up GoToSocial, and import. Without losing reply glue on old toots or spamming.

Hey @elk fans, we have a new release on https://elk.zone -- please try it out & enjoy! :)
Required move to ease onboarding?
I've been thinking more about the hurtle of getting friends and family to use federated/self-hosted services. One of the issues to onboarding is people not understanding the idea of picking an instance. This has led, in part, to "default" instances, like lemmy.world, that could grow so large it would almost defeat the idea.
I've been thinking that I really wish DeltaChat had a web client. I have had a MUCH more difficult time getting folks to try that out than even federated SNS. But I was thinking how the heck are you going to pull that off without delta@chaos.social having to host the overhead for a robust web client and possibly host a gigantic server system that has to grow exponentially to keep everyone's private encrypted chats from all the possible email providers, really defeating the goal of their project.
This morning, I thought of a possible solution to both problems. What if you have a built-in transfer requirement. So you start with a default, say pleb.joinmastodon.org or noob.delta.chat and after a certain time (3 months or something) you have to either transfer to a new instance, including hosting your own client for in browser decryption web access to your encrypted mail chats, or your account (in the case of #mastodon) or web client access (in the case of Delta Chat) is shut off.
Do you think this could work?
Self-hosted Delta Chat?

Hey everyone,
@joynewacc and I had the honour of speaking to @Dalla1982 today and would like to welcome her and her family to Gaza Verified.
She’s an architect who, due to the war, has lost her job and must now support her family through donations until some semblance of normal life returns to Gaza.
Please give her a follow and help if you can.
(She doesn’t have her fundraiser on her profile yet but I’ve asked her to add it. Once she does, you will be able to see her on our donate page along with the other families: https://gaza-verified.org/donate/)
💕
