ICYMI: Freedombone is a home server system that enables you to **easily** self-host a variety of free software applications.
It's awesome that the Freedombone supports Gogs, the web based #Git management tool.
A great alternative for many people who aren't heavy git users and want to use a completely decentralised and lightweight system.

Here's how to use Gogs on Freedombone

Questions? Just ask @bob

pleroma gets a bad rap because shitty people use it, but it's important to remember that shitty people use mastodon too

people also say the main dev (lain) is problematic but what would you know, gargron is problematic too (which is not to say that problematic necessarily means bad, we're all problematic in our own ways)

it's silly that there's so much bad blood between pleroma and mastodon

aren't we all trying to achieve more or less the same goal?

Actually it's pronounced Jithub

I put version control hosting + activitypub (read: federated github-alternative) on tomorrow's socialcg agenda https://www.w3.org/wiki/SocialCG/2018-06-06

@iona @aral I recommend you self host it. There is a helper: https://google-webfonts-helper.herokuapp.com/fonts

Shared by some friends not on mastodon, on Facebook today. A screen grab of a mastodon post is now a meme on facebook!

Speaking as a user — THIS 500 KB site is the web I want.

Speaking as someone who worries about the architecture of the web — I keep thinking that we’ve built a platform that is serves, in this example: 9% content, 91% ads and tracking.

there's so much we can do with #mastodon instances. I believe if we do it right we can make the world a better place by giving people a way to connect with each other that was not possible before. for that we need to bridge online and offline. don't just put up a server, but think about using your instance as a way to connect people in real life and bring new or existing communities together.

#introduction

this is hilarious. The far-right party #afd from #germany just had press conference with all journalists solidary leaving it after one journalist was prohibited to ask questions.

So they canceld their ''press-conference without press''

Just realized that fact: Mastodon instances should indicate the name of the company/organization providing the network for this instance.

The problem is: if in a country only one network provides connectivity for 99% of the available instances like (maybe) the OVH company in France, users should know this data in order to open a backup account on an instance hosted in another network, why not in another country.
