I, for one, welcome our new Mastodon 4.4 overlords!
#mastodon #mastodaoine #noxp

When a video from #Peertube appears in my feed here in #Mastodon, it only shows the title and the URL, nothing more. This is not really helpful.
Would it be possible, that Mastodon shows something like the first 300 characters from the description (500 characters minus 120 for the peertube …

Anyone else experiencing problems (again) with link previews (including thumbnail images) when posting from #Mastodon via #Bridgy to #Bluesky?

I do not know if this is a general problem between platforms or if it is strictly an issue between Mastodon -> Bluesky, but whenever I post an article (or other external link) on Mastodon the thumb...

A really easy video I have not seen is someone cover and showing off the new Mastodon features with each version release.
The core Mastodon org should do this but you really need a community of creators showing off the new features.

Is it just for me or is Mastodon becoming more vibrant, lively and interesting? 😃

What are peeps using for banking these days? I’m using N26 but considering moving to Revolut.
I don’t have an Irish bank account (My last account was an Ulster Bank account and have been with N26 since 2018 ish.)

Oh, I see now how quote posting is going to be processed around here...
Not a bad system at all, although I do have my doubts it'll work well when the quoted posts are coming from networks where this kind of approval is tacitly given by default, such as Bluesky, like in this case.

Anyone else get email notifications when someone new follows you on Mastodon ??. In over 2 years this is my first one

I’ve never had a real need for these “activity notifications” so I wasn’t sure if these were available for #Mastodon. I checked and was not surprised to see that they are indeed already there. What surprised me was that #Bluesky only added them now.

Bluesky can really keep up with the news now that it has activity notifications
A new update has also added much more control over which notifications users will see, and who can trigger them. One thing that has been missing from Bluesky until now was the ability to turn on notifications for specific accounts, but now Activity Notifications are live. If you want to know every …

make sure you do your REDIS_NAMESPACE migration for #Mastodon before upgrading to 4.4.0 ;)

Oh, ich hoffe sehr, das #Mastodon nicht zum nachfolger von Twitter wird, weil das wäre ein echter Abstieg in die Hölle ...

Schade, dass Boosts nicht als Teil des Personal Feeds bei den RSS-Feeds mit enthalten sind. Ebenso nicht beim Konten-"Alarm". Die gehören für mich schon dazu. Und wenn ich Boosts von jmd. nicht will (warum auch immer), kann ich es ja generell abschalten.

Meine Wunsch-Tröt des Kanzlers auf #Mastodon statt auf dieser unsagbaren Plattform X:
Ich würde mir diese Meldung in der Tagesschau wünschen: „Der Kanzler gratulierte auf dem sozialen Netzwerk Mastodon Borussia Mönchengladbach zur deutschen Fußballmeisterschaft.“ Beide Aspekte der Nachricht sind leider sehr unwahrscheinlich, aber die Hoffnung …

Also, this is misleading.
In this case, the post was not removed by its author. It's just a Bluesky account that restricts its visibility outside the BSky network, which means it can't be bridged.
So, yeah, it's a good start, but it needs tweaking.

No, not Meta! Meta? Really? The same Meta that’s Mastodon gGmbH’s partner at the Social Web Foundation?

Spent some time this evening tidying up followed hashtags and more importantly muting accounts that were crossing hashtags (ie. Posts about conflicts appearing in the main #mastodon/#fediverse hashtags, which they shouldn't be)
Filters have been updated and now the 'Home' feed is no longer chaos. #noxp

My instance is on v4.4.0. Quote post something if your instance allows it, so I could bask in its glory 😀
Also, is the reply fetch supposed to be configurable in the admin section of v4.4.0? I am still using #Substitoot for a quick look before going to the original post to follow the discussion.

I noticed #Aure @… has become a very active "news" account on the #Fediverse (mainly #Mastodon

Something I miss in the #Pixelfed & #Mastodon sofyware: the possibility to have lists (like the circles in Google ) and show some content really only for some close friends.
I don't wanna show everything to all and have more privacy. So I still need to send everything via Signal and co.

The Guardian finally discovers #gravy. Obviously someone reads #mastodon.

I thought I'd email #KEXP about joining #Mastodon and the #Fediverse since it seems up their alley. I got a response saying they have forwarded the message to their marketing team, which is a start.…

#FediDB #Mastodon #Wikidata

Fedi meta-musings.
Just went to look at a Mastodon account I interacted with a little while back. Their follow requests require approval (which is fair enough) and the bio states
Got a blank or nonsensical avatar, no visible activity, no pointers to your identity? I'll ignore your follow request.
Well I guess that's me out. I have a good reason for wanting to be pseudonymous, as do many others here I imagine.
Of course it's every user's right to set whatever conditions they want on who follows them, but a blanket refusal on anyone not featuring a "real name" and a human-appearing avatar feels quite over-sensitive to me.

#Mastodon ist jetzt offiziell ein digitales öffentliches Gut – als einziges soziales Netzwerk neben Wikipedia & Co. im „Digital Public Goods Standard“. Während andere Plattformen Daten an Milliardäre verschenken, setzt Mastodon auf offene, selbstbestimmte Kommunikation. Ein Meilenstein für digitale Souveränität
Mastodon ist als digitales öffentliches Gut anerkannt!

Is there a way of filtering out excessively long Mastodon posts?

I hope there was a way to make mastodon text only

Looks like my (#)"MastodonFedivers" character got a boost in (#)"Learning Points", 155 to be exact.
That's thanks to the update. Also learning points work differently now.
You can no longer immediately unlock skills with them but instead they boost your %...and they drain slowly...

Topic: "The New Mastodon Is Interesting"
This is another screenshot of a profile on Mastodon showcasing the Mastodon Feature where 2 people you follow(which are not mutual follows!) show up in
"Followed by" and "and x others you know"
What do you think about the way this feature is designed?
Good design?
Needs improvement?
Perfect?
#MastodonFeature

Is it really still a problem, that #Mastodon won't (or can't) show me all posts that are part of my #timeline, just because boosted posts can be from remote instances, that mine doesn't know about?
And because of that, they're just missing? Shouldn't this be solved by now…

The default styling for markdown text is SO COOL on #Mastodon which is WILD since mastodon does not let you use markdown!
#Mastodon

So I spent a lot of time writing a post...which I think was kinda irrelevant but I wrote it due to me being excited with a Mastodon feature.
This can be seen in this screenshot I'm adding here:
Not a complaint comment: It would make more sense to me if the Fedi users showing up were mutual follows...just saying! No judgement!

In my guild there's only me out of 16 players.
Trivia: Premium cost is 26 M silver rounded up to nearest 1 M.

Is there a way to force a #Mastodon instance to fetch the follower number of an account again? I'm asking, because @… is growing, but the follower number I see stays steady.. (not only here, but on other instances too)

As of this moment the guild "Mastodon Fediverse 100 Tax" got 8 members and 3 are online including me.

Albion EU was offline, now probably not.
During that time I went for a 30 minute pork pie mining round in Believer Tor(T5) on the Albion Online Asia server.
This is some data I noted down on etherpad based on my mining round.
I got 42k silver as you can see. Not much...maybe that's like a joke to you...
#AlbionOnline

So back in Albion EU now...let us check how my 1 day and 8 hour 0% Tax guild "Mastodon Fediverse Unity" is doing...
A little glimpse and we've got...
4/8 players online including me who is also online in the guild.
Here are my notes on etherpad(attached image) where I've made available some data regarding my ore gathering round 4...

So basically I've played too much Albion today.
my guild shrinked a bit, then grew a bit so now giving it a glimpse there are 3/9 players online(I'm part of the 3)
This time I played Faction Warfare and grew my silver a bit by being lucky being in the right company. Leaving earlier a losing battle where I was felled 2 times and went to a winning battle
Look up my stats/progress, it is attached!

Mastodon Fediverse Unity is a 0% tax guild I'm promoting where we promote mastodon and fediverse awareness.
Perhaps there are even people from the fediverse itself in it...but to start somewhere we welcome all players first...so omw to Highland Cross!

Mastodon users, beware!
Mastodon is under attack by scam bots which claim they are an admin and that your account has been suspended.
Don't believe the lies!
I've created a filter now so that next time I get such a message or reply or whatever it will be filtered behind the title I set for the filter which is:
"Verification Scam"
If you need help to create a filter I'll help you!

Selling:
T5 logs 22k
T4 logs 14k

So now I can go back to EU then...
