The @dublininquirer crew are looking for help: "Will you help us with a reporting project? We want to test whether an self-checkout service at a Dublin shop is consistently flagging people with darker skin for extra checks. "We're looking for people with all different shades of skin to go in and buy a small item, on us, and let us know if you were flagged for extra checks."To get involved, email lois@dublininquirer.com#Dublin #MastoDaoine #AntiRacism

I should post more instead of just Boosting shit :v#boost #vmouf #fediverse

RE: https://mastodon.ie/@greenparty_ie/116013249032382203Absolutely thrilled to nominate and see my friend Janet Horner selected as our candidate for the upcoming Dublin Central by-election.Janet has worked relentlessly on improving the lives of those not just in her constituency but all of the city especially the marginalised and those who most needed support.She would make a great TD. Looking forward to the campaign trail!#politics #dublin #green #climate

Another post reminding that I run an ActivityPub Relay that can probably handle more instances. Feel free to subscribe. For Mastodon, Misskey, and Plemora instances only.https://circlewithadot.net/services/aprelay.html#mastodon #fediverse #relay #misskey #pleroma #activityrelay

If you follow me, you have a sense of humour. If you're reading this, you're a reader. I’ve put this story online, free, gratis and for nothing, it's a twelve minute read. If you like it, maybe you’ll be curious enough to risk 99p for one of my short story collections. Maybe you’ll be smart enough to save some money by buying a compilation. Maybe you’ll be brave enough to buy my novel. Whatever happens, I hope you enjoy ‘Vincent'. http://aarondavid.co.uk/Vincent.html #freeread #shortstory #funny #pleaseboost

Blacksky has already built their own ATProto stack that's fully independent from Bluesky. Now Eurosky is making progress as they roll out their own PDS.I see more independent infrastructure springing up on https://atp.fyi/network, including AppViews.For anyone hoping that we'll get another wave of people coming to the fediverse once Bluesky folds/enshittifies, that might not necessarily be the case as people will have more options to stay in the Atmosphere.#fediverse #atmosphere #ATProto #bluesky #SocialMedia

This will be the last #Mastodon post that will be bridged to #Bsky!Choosing another protocol, okay sure we can work with that. But hosting and even verifying criminal orgs like #ICE is just a spit in the faceAlmost everything is PUBLIC on Bsky, It's not a viable decentralized alternative, since hosting it all yourself would bankrupt almost anyoneSo if you want to keep following me, please do join the #Fediverse https://mstdn.social/invite/C3pBKk4YOr better, host your own!https://fediverse.party

We added our Vivaldi Social server to the Fediverse on November 15th 2022. We are still, I believe, the only browser company that is fully behind the Fediverse. It is something we are very proud of! The Fediverse is the natural alternative to Big Tech social media, just like, IMHO, Vivaldi is the natural alternative to Big Tech browsers.#Vivaldi #Fediverse #Mastodon #Twitter #SocialMedia #AI #Meta #Facebook #Instagram https://vivaldi.com/blog/news/vivaldi-social-a-new-mastodon-instance/

Hello #fediverse! Thanks to my new DFF grant, I'm now looking to hire a PhD student to join me at AAU in Aalborg to work on "usable decentralization", i.e. on making distributed and federated cloud services accessible to the everyday user. For more details, see link below, and please don't hesitate to DM me with questions!https://www.vacancies.aau.dk/phd-positions/show-vacancy/vacancyId/895183#HCI #academia #getfedihired #decentralization #AAU #Aalborg #Denmark #selfhosted #selfhosting

Are you running a server on the Fediverse, either Mastodon or some other type?Would you like it to be listed on the human-curated server directory at https://fedi.garden/fedi-gardens-full-server-list ?Is it compatible with all seven points at https://fedi.garden/about-this-site ?If the answer to all these is yes, please message my other account at:️ @FediGarden Let me know a little bit about your server in your message, or send a link to your About page #Fediverse #FediAdmin #MastoAdmin

Can any instance operators offer an explanation as to why federating with Mastodon from an instance not running their software tends to be more difficult?I've noticed lately that when viewing a profile from a Mastodon instance, their post history tends to be incomplete or otherwise missing. Any posts that are made recently tend to have a significant delay or don't show up on their profile at all.I know that you can view the content from the remote instance in question for a complete profile, that you need to do so however does seem to be a failing on the part of the server software to properly federate and populate posts.#SelfHosting, #FediAdmin, #Mastodon, #MastoAdmin, #ServerAdmin, #SocialMedia, #AskFedi, #FediMeta, #Fedi, #Federation, #Fediverse.

February is the Black History Month here in the US, and a great opportunity to recommit to making the fediverse (and beyond!) a safe and welcoming place for Black people. Let's continue to lift up their voices, celebrate their joys, and if you see trouble, step in and help out. #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackFedi #BlackMastodon #fediverse
