Let’s be clear:Yes, people are busy, and maintaining software isn’t always enjoyable. No one is saying you need to run the absolute latest, bleeding-edge updates every single day.However, if you let your server fall behind for six (6) months or more, even because of a busy schedule, you’re effectively putting your users and your instance at risk. At that point, it’s more responsible to participate as a user rather than as a system administrator.System administration isn’t just about enthusiasm — it requires consistent upkeep, attention to security, and a willingness to stay reasonably current with updates. If your lifestyle doesn’t allow for that, it’s completely okay. It’s better to recognize your limits than to run a server that could become a liability to the wider Fediverse.#Fediverse #ActivityPub #Mastodon #Misskey #PixelFed #PeerTube #Sharkey #Loops #Akkoma #Pleroma #Mbin #Lemmy #InfoSec #Security #Hack #FOSS #OpenSource #Linux #BSD #FreeBSD

While others build walled gardens, we're preparing to tear down walls.As TikTok creates separate US and global apps, we're putting the finishing touches on ActivityPub integration in Loops. Soon you'll share your loops across the entire fediverse - no borders, no corporate silos.The future is federated. 🌐https://joinloops.org#Loops #Fediverse #ActivityPub
