It looks like Mastodon Groups are in the works. I wonder what that would look like. Would it cover services on ActivityPub other than Mastodon? Does any microblogging platform out there already offer a similar feature?

If anyone has insights, please enlighten us!

Hey Fedi people! 👋

Can you recommend some domain name providers that are easy to use and provide a good support service?

I'm NOT looking for ones that are cheapest! Trying to find ones that are most suitable for non-technical people and/or people just getting started as Fedi admins.

Your Mastodon home feed is populated by:

The people you follow
The boosts of the people you follow
Replies of the people you follow
The hashtags you follow
Replies to the posts of people you follow

Is this correct?

hey does anyone have a brand of HDDs they can recommend?

I've had terrible experiences with Seagate so I won't be buying those again.

So now I'm wondering what other brands should I buy/avoid?

Does anyone have a recommendation for an app like ProCreate but for Android devices? In best case for free but that's not mandatory.

Just some hashtags:

I just had to deal with the worst kind of report, I immediately banned the account and cleared associated media from our CDN

Ended up spending the evening working on federating account deletions to purge this from known fediverse servers (done ✅)

Now I'm working to make it easier for admins to report illegal content to the authorities

I'm making this public because @pixelfed needs your help to report sus posts and feedback on how to keep our community safe from illegal content

Are there any benefits to being a very slow #reader?

"Matthias Stom: A Young Man Reading at Candlelight. Matthias Stom was one of the many Dutch artists who travelled to Rome in the early 17th century. There they were strongly influenced by Caravaggio’s use of light and shadow. They often painted night scenes with figures rendered realistically in artificial light. Stom depicts a young man reading by candlelight. His concentration offers an image of contemporary concepts of diligence and virtue. The painting provided an aesthetic as well as a contemplation experience."

    Question thermodynamique/chimique: est-ce que la tendance naturelle de la matière à occuper le niveau d’énergie potentielle le plus bas possible est une fonction de la deuxième loi thermodynamique qui maintient qu'un système tend toujours vers le désordre?

    Michael Parker: Just to clarify do you mean you'll send an invite on Google Meet, or Google Meet (original)? Sacha Sayan: Great question Michael. As a Google Workspace user, formerly GSuite, otherwise known as Google Apps for Work, previously Google Apps Premier Edition, aka Gmail for Your Domain, which would you recommend?

    Thomas Kurian: We're introducing a new offering called Gemini Business, which lets organizations use generative AI in Workspace at a lower price point than Gemini Enterprise, which replaces Duet AI for Workspace Enterprise. Sacha Sayan: Hey Thomas, can I pay for it with Google Pay in Google Wallet, which replaced Google Pay, which replaced Android Pay, formerly known as Google Wallet? Sacha Sayan: If not we can jump on a call and discuss billing. I'll send you an invite on Google Meet, the enterprise Google Chat, previously Duo, which replaced Allo, the replacement for Hangouts, the rebrand of +Hangouts, which replaced Talk and Voice.

    #Bluesky custom feeds are pretty amazing.
    Would this sorta thing be possible on #Mastodon?

    I'm thinking about a bot that would filter and boost posts depending on the the algorithm.
    Is someone already working on this?

    @jasdemi you can follow accounts (including bots) and you can follow hashtags. If a hashtag is not powerful enough, maybe a "Guppe" style group is interesting, and if that's not what you are looking for, a bot account has practically no limits to what it could do.

    Do you have a question that you would like help with from random people?

    Or are you someone that likes to help random people with random questions?

    ...then you should use this hashtag:

    ➡️ #AskFedi

    This tag is for any question at all, it's sort of like a "bat signal" for questions on the Fediverse.

    If you're asking a question include it in a public post, like you would with any hashtag.

    If you like to help out, search or follow this hashtag.

    I can't thank everyone enough for all their help and input on my quest to find an inexpensive XLR to USB adapter for my Stagg dynamic microphone - so many lovely people on Mastodon and the Fediverse! I'm definitely keen to grab a Pyle XLR-to-USB signal adapter but the only one I can seem to find in the UK (link below) still needs to be shipped over across from the US, so if anyone knows any good UK sellers (or any equivalent item in the UK) for the same price range, do let me know! Thanks! https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pyle-Microphone-XLR-Signal-Adapter/dp/B07MTGT27G/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?crid=28X3BWCEV02Z3&keywords=Pyle+xlr+usb&qid=1706893232&sprefix=pyle+xlr+usb%2Caps%2C364&sr=8-2
