Latest release of #FediAlgo, the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed, lets you blur / hide images marked as sensitive / #NSFW, which solves the "unwanted dick pics in your feed" issue that can come up when users of one of the more "risque" fediverse servers manage to make one of their favourite hashtags trend.

If you're on mastodon.social, you might want to move your account to a different server:

➡️ https://fedi.tips/its-a-really-bad-idea-to-join-a-big-server

The Fediverse is protected from takeover as long as we are spread out on many servers. If one server dominates, takeovers become easier.

Mastodon.social is currently 25.5% of the active Fediverse. This proportion is way too large and seems to be increasing.

Larger servers also tend to have worse moderation and are harder to defederate, threatening safety.

@ Ben Pate 🤘🏻 In the words of a diaspora* developer, if Mozilla and Vivaldi "implemented ActivityPub", they'd actually "implement Mastodon". That'd mean catching more users with less effort than implementing vanilla ActivityPub and implementing features that Mastodon doesn't have. Besides, both used to have or still have a Mastodon server, but they don't seem to be aware that there's a Fediverse beyond Mastodon, much less what it's like and how it works.

In fact, they wouldn't even implement the ActivityPub C2S API at all. They'd implement the Mastodon client API and only the Mastodon client API.

February 1st marked Global Switch Day -A celebration of the Fediverse and a chance to move away from corporate social media.

I reflected on platforms like Mastodon, PeerTube, PixelFed, and Loops. If you’ve ever thought about making the switch, now’s the time.

new release of #Fedialgo, the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed, counts the number of times each hashtag appears in your timeline even if people don't use a "#" character to give you a better sense of what people are talking about in the Fediverse.

there's a little bit of art vs. science here because some strings are disqualified from this kind of counting (e.g. a word like "the" should not be counted even if some maniac decided to make it a hashtag) so let me know if you see any weirdly high counts.

I'm testing out Mobilizon as a possible home for RhRR.

Before spinning up a new instance (read: ask my very kind dev friends to do that), I started by making an account on an existing server, and one that's dedicated to activism.

https://events.pol-rev.com/@rushhour_resistance

I'll continue testing and adding more of our events. But I really think I need a full instance, as there's a lot of config changes I want to make that are admin only.

It feels very much like Mobilize.us, but on the #Fediverse!
