@mojala @neo There's been endless discussions about that amongst developers. It's not that simple. We used to have the automatic recognition in v3 or something, but they removed it because it was not reliable.

The snow trickles down to earth so softly
Each individual flake
so inconspicuous when each on its own
But when gathered together
on the earth
A picture emerges that changes everything
Covers everything
in white innocence

Good morning to you all ❄️🌞 ☕️
Have a great day and a lovely weekend

I'm going to have to apologize a bit for the BlueSky slander I've been spreading. I did not realize it's actually open source and federated too. It just has its own protocol instead of ActivityPub.
I'm sticking with Mastodon, but I'm a little less upset now about BlueSky's recent prominence
Updated #BlueSky my handle!

Aww yiss. No worries, though. #Mastodon is my primary home. But it's good to diversify. Let's not put our eggs in one basket ever again. :P
(I'm not putting much effort into #Threads though. Already has that corporate stink about it. 🤢)
This bitch be bussing 💯 .
Y'all don't go leaving now 😒
We got fire this bitch up to be the #1 social app.

Is there any way, in Mastodon, to automatically suspend an account if they post a specific link?
Done a little playlist of PeerTube videos that provide more info about how to use Mastodon and the rest of the Fediverse:

Videos about Mastodon and the Fediverse
Videos that explain more about the Fediverse, including Mastodon and other platforms on the Fedi.Fedi.Video
Recently came across @vmstan's bot @mergebot, which is great if you want to stay on top of Mastodon's development.
Pairs well with @mastodon_mobile_apps, which keeps track of latest updates to Mastodon's official mobile apps.
I also made @mastodonroadmap, which is a bit less useful these days as the Mastodon roadmap hasn't been getting updated much lately, and the no longer active @mastodonmilestoneprogress, as the team has moved away from using GitHub milestones.

Streamiverse is written in Kitten and you can follow the “htmx, the htmx WebSocket extension, and socket routes” tutorial to create a Kitten app that consumes the API:
kitten.small-web.org/tutorials…
To get started with Kitten, see:
(Could be a fun little thing to play with this weekend.)

Introducing Streamiverse… a simple Mastodon-compatible streaming API of curated posts from the fediverse.
Consume the public API curated/hosted by Small Technology Foundation (for non-commercial and educational use) or host your own.
Mastodon had a public streaming API but it was locked down this year. This gives you back that useful feature (for demos, teaching, etc.) plus you know exactly what you’re getting.

On Mastodon, a newly introduced feature allows you to link your blog articles to your Fediverse account. I recently added this feature to my Hugo Blog and wrote down the necessary steps: kotthoff.dev/posts/2024/mastod…

This blog post by @rolle about how he found his way into the #Fediverse and created IMO the best #Mastodon #theme #BirdUI is well worth a read!

The day I decided to build my own "Twitter" - @rolle / Web designer, web developer
The social media and I go way back. It’s always been about the companies who run them and you, user, a product. Until now. Fediverse is here to change everything. I was one of the early adopters with social media and Twitter.Roni "Rolle" Laukkarinen (@rolle / Web designer, web developer)
One of the worst misfeatures of #Mastodon from a safety angle: If you get an abusive reply to your post, you can't remove it even by blocking the person. Even after blocking, your server still shows the abusive reply to everyone else.
There has been a patch ready to fix this for 2 years, 6 months, and 1 day. @Gargron has not approved it, and has provided *zero* explanation for why he will not allow it to be merged.

2) contains the history of development of these two? Things like, when and why they were created, etc? Thanks in advance! (And thanks for potential boosts that could help this reach the right people)
Likewise, if we do want #bluesky #starterpack - style solutions, what does that mean to #mastodon from a stability perspective?
I noticed @jwz recently, talking about serious performance-related slowdown issues, related to having an account that is VERY popular. So, what does that mean if we create solutions which greatly encourage account popularity, without actually addressing server issues first?
In short, the issue of starter packs isn't just a simple good / bad question.
A few months back, I simplified my social media presence from Facebook, Nextdoor, Mastodon, and Reddit to just the last two. I briefly brought back Nextdoor to try and sell a furniture item locally, and then deleted it straightaway.
I'm seriously thinking of dropping Reddit. The timeline stresses me out quite a bit, since I can't seem to find filtering capabilities ala Mastodon. Also it is not nearly a friendly place overall like here.
There are a few "communities" (subreddits) that I'd miss, but I think what we have here may be quite satisfactory.

Friendly reminder, if a cable is cut somewhere in the world, #mastodon will not go down.
Why? Because it is truly decentralized.
The #bluesky marketing doesn't hold up when compared to the facts.

Bluesky apparently acted up today because of a cut fiber cable
Bluesky had some issues earlier today because of a cut fiber cable from an Internet provider, Bluesky says. During the outage, my feeds and notifications were very slow to load on the web and mobile while logged in.Jay Peters (The Verge)

"Decentralised social media is more than just a technical shift; it's a step toward restoring autonomy and trust in our digital lives, empowering individuals and communities to connect without compromising their values or privacy."
A study by the Oxford Martin School at the University of Oxford finds that decentralised social media leads to citizen empowerment.
