Today I decided to automate and expand my open source and fediverse software funding to my favorite and most used projects. Every little bit helps. #foss #fediverse #linux

For me currently it's Mozilla, Feneas and Matrix for monthly donations in the tech scene. For single projects I randomly throw small amounts based on the feeling of getting lots of value.

Donations are important! We should all be doing that whenever we can to ensure these projects have a future!

Got my Diaspora API #kotlin client libs working against the latest API branch code. Ready to run against server with API code #diaspora #diaspora-dev #fediverse https://www.nequalsonelifestyle.com/2019/07/04/getting-ready-for-disapora-api/

We have #fediverse platforms already in production and still under active development to replace traditional social media. Who do Sanger and TBL think we need something brand new? What's this boycott PR thing to boot? Help make the fediverse viable guys!

Unhappy With Social Media? Join Wikipedia Co-Founder In Social Media Strike

Larry Sanger, the co-founder of Wikipedia, has called for a social media strike to demand decentralized social media platforms. He has urged users who are unhappy with social media websites to boycott the platforms on July 4 and 5 (at least one day). The motive behind the strike is to demand big corporations to give users back their privacy, control over data and user experience.

Retribute, a #donation system for #fediverse creators – We Distribute


Retribute, a donation system for fediverse creators

Eliot Berriot, creator of Funkwhale, has unveiled a new concept for handling donations to artists from their patrons on the fediverse.

I woke from a dream where the #diaspora API was being deployed (which I think may actually be happening soon, right #diaspora-dev ?) so I revived my website comments system based on the API, polished up the #kotlin implementation, and then also wrote a #dotnet version so I could make an #fediverse app in #AvaloniaUI . Yeah I'm in a coding mood :).

The Feneas forum


Today we launch our discussion forum powered by #Discourse to help #federated folk have a place for cross-platform collaboration discussion.

Welcome!

The Feneas forum

After a process that started in February 2019 as a suggestion to us, we're finally launching our forum.Why does the web need yet another forum?The Feneas committee team has experience being involved in the federated social web since around 2011. In all that time one thing has become

So Gab is coming to the fediverse by converting their system from proprietary to a fork of Mastodon (why a fork?). I have thoughts but umm should be interesting... #fediverse https://gab.com/gab/posts/VnZRendFcDM1alBhNm9QeWV4d0xidz09

Gab

Gab is an ad-free social network dedicated to preserving individual liberty, the freedom of speech, and the free flow of information on the internet.

Yeah, but if they were planning to expose their closed social network to a giant external one with hundreds of thousands of users, you'd think they'd at least say so in layman's terms, no?

Well, it's like if they said they're setting up an email server that uses "SMTP". I'd assume they mean that SMTP will be available for talking to other servers, even if not specifically mentioned. Since they do mention ActivityPub, I'd also assume they mean it will be used to talk to other servers :)

Hats off to the Matrix.org team for publishing the post mortem on their hack. It's painful to admit mistakes and security lapses but this can help others learn from their mistakes #cybersecurity #fediverse matrix.org/blog/2019/05/0…

Thanks, this is always helpful

I'm having a bit of "writers block" on developing recently. Trying to ruminate on it to get past it. #programming #opensource #fediverse

@Hank G have you ever touched the Social Home project by @Jason Robinson 🐍🍻?

It's Python, not PHP and to my knowledge the project's team doesn't mind integrating different Fediverse protocols too

If you know a language other than English, you can contribute to many different Fediverse-related projects by translating their text.

Here are some translation links:

📺 PeerTube

Are there other links to add to this list?

Hmm, Peertube needs to learn a bit about L10n. That way they won't find many helpers.

For our open source bibliography manager JabRef we use crowdin for translation management. Really simple and easy to use

Friendica Dev Environment
Alright! After many hours getting up to speed on #PHP #phpstorm and #LAMP in general finally got a dev environment running with #friendica ...I think I'll celebrate with a little Stardew Valley before moving on :) #fediverse
