OK, you just wanted to be off-topic abusive, got it, thanks for calling yourself out.

No, we did not (nor did we use any other AI tool).

Mastodon comms person here. We’re discussing how we go forward. The questions being asked are all absolutely reasonable, and we want to do what we can to improve the terms (that we do need to have in place) taking into account the feedback and offers of support.

Have you looked at the Digital Public Goods Alliance at all? I don’t understand your comment here, or how it relates to the news story shared.

what kind of algorithm are you talking about?

and said that the instance would be cutting ties/not federating with Threads,

Can you please show exactly there this was said?

One of the ways that this could improve in the future is that we’re working on a notional caching service as a future Fediverse Auxiliary Service Provider, so that this kind of content could be shared between small groups of instances that chose to use it.

If folks like the “Rebel Alliance” laptop sticker, you can get one via https://fediverseforfreedom.org/ … just sayin’.

hi from the Mastodon team, we’d love to work more closely with you in the future on Fediverse and freedom related topics 🙂 also, I am personally a big fan of PeerTube, and think the work you do is fantastic! 🐙

Do you mean you’re trying to access Threads’ ActivityPub endpoint(s)?

I’m pretty certain that you have to use signed requests, and bear in mind that not all users have federation enabled.

I just confirmed that by using the fedify CLI to test. Running fedify lookup andypiper@threads.net fails, but with fedify lookup -a andypiper@threads.net (which spins up a local server and performs authenticated requests) I get back JSON from the WebFinger endpoint.

You’ll probably get some folks able to share their experiences integrating / testing with Threads federation in some of the Fediverse Developers related Matrix rooms.

I follow a lot of hashtags, and interact with a lot of people. It may seem more quiet if you’re not engaging on the platform and adding content to your feed by following people and topics. We are working on the Fediscovery project to help to surface more discussions across platforms, as well.

pretty dismayed to see they are were (evidently deleted account) a mod of r/Mastodon when they have nothing to do with the core project.

just noticed! You have a typo over there in the sidebar for this Lemmy community - GoToSocial link is socail not social!

Probably the wrong place to point this out, but the link to Lemmy on the links.firesidefedi.live landing page is missing a period…

Oh, nice! Looking forward to this one!

I like it so far, I’m fairly early on still because I’m mostly exploring and taking it slowly. Nice graphics and overall “feel”.

Thanks for having me, this was fun!

Cool, but Loops is not a Fediverse app until it federates, and it can’t be self-hosted until the code is available.

I have stickers (and was sharing them at FOSDEM) but I haven’t put them online anywhere yet, I need to get on that! Thanks for liking it!
