Hey adventurers!!
After much thought and a ludicrous amount of coffee/tea/hot beverages, we decided to allow more users on #TheGamersTavern #Peertube instance! It's cozier when more people can join and make part of this great community that YOU, and only YOU, make so great.

Well...it's mostly done! Just took my next big step in the Fediverse and opened a new instance! We're running Sharkey and it's going to be invites only for now.

The goal of The Social Zone is for people to have a safe space away from the VERY political climate we currently live in to just be social with one another. All the usual rules, of course. No hate speech, bigotry, CSAM, loli content, etc.

AI content allowed as long as it's tagged. (which most are).

I hope to one day feel comfortable enough to open registrations to allow approval. However, since this is a new instance and I'm REALLY new to Sharkey and having other users on the same instance, I want time to make sure to get this right.

Your friend,
B.A.

Anyone have any idea what could cause federated instances to *not* pull in profile pics and headers?

I am running a separate Sharkey (Misskey fork) instance and there's a few examples of this happening.

I have CDN with Cloudflare and that seems to work. The "remote caching" feature on Sharkey is turned off. I DO have Authorized Fetch on (maybe this is the issue?) However, both my instance and another instance have issues pulling icons and headers both ways (Mine doesn't show up on certain instances either)

Most of the stuff that I talked about here, I've just done today, so it COULD be that it just needs time to update, but I am unsure right now.

It is pretty cool to see all the different forks of major fediverse platforms. Just learning about Chuckya, a "soft fork" of glitch-soc, which itself is a fork of Mastodon.

https://github.com/TheEssem/mastodon

Really shows the diversity of the fediverse!

And this is why I currently love AI....I took the Oliphant's Unified Tier 0 Blocklist CSV and ChatGPT gave me the list of domains within so I can import it into Misskey/Sharkey.

I'd post it here, but Mastodon doesn't let you upload files that aren't "media".🤷‍♂️

Anyone have a version of the Oliphant Tier 0 blocklist that's not in CSV format?

More specifically for Misskey/Sharkey? Or am I gonna have to start copy/pasting one-by-one? 😬😳

If you don't, but have a Fedi Admin in your circle that might, please boost!

Interesting: I just tried following someone on mastodon.ie with an unlocked account and it got turned into a follow request.

Has mastodon.ie silenced me?

If so, I’d like to know why.

CC @mastodonie

PS. This won’t affect you if you’re already following me. It will mean my posts would get hidden from the public timeline and wouldn’t show up in trending posts, etc., on your instance. Hence “silenced.”

#madtodon #ireland #fediverse #mastodonDotIE #silencing

Why does everything have to be confusing? Why can't stuff just "work"? 😩

Trying to setup Backblaze B2 with Sharkey and there's a "Base URL" option. I asked about it in the Sharkey discord and was told I could "CNAME a subdomain to the bucket". Which I know how to do 2/3 of that but once I enter the subdomain for CNAME, how do I link that to the bucket?

I kinda wish Mastodon didn't exist at this point with how straight forward everything is vs how not straightforward this has been so far.

I prefer the Misskey/Sharkey look, but I am SO spoiled by Mastodon's documentation.

I consider most of everything I do here "fun". Today and yesterday, I haven't been posting all that much because I haven't been doing "fun", I've been doing "work" with LOTS of assistance from @ozzy (hes done most of it, I am just doing what he says basically). Hopefully with my vision and goals along with his knowledge and help, I'm doing something that will be considered admirable in the long run.

Though, just because it's been a bit stressful with errors and such, "work" on Fedi is no less exciting than "fun" on Fedi, I assure you that.

Progress.

Bright days ahead and I am mostly alone for the rest. (It's easy, just time consuming)

More info soon.
