Juten Morjen beste Timeline im Fediverse #Hubzilla Netzwerk

Die Nacht war dunkel und "erquickend" (das muss sich noch zeigen) aber das
#Drecksding hatte was gegen ausschlagen.

Heute ist Mittwoch und da wird nicht nur die Woche geteilt sondern am Nachmittag ist auch DIY Werkstatt Tag, worauf ich mich sehr freue.
Da liegt noch alte und neue Arbeit an....

Und geträumt habe ja ich auch. Einen echten Qualitätstraum.
Mit dem ersten ton vom Drecksding, war alles weg. Einfach pffffff und weg
Somit habe ich da nichts zu berichten.

Kommt gut in den Tag, ich schlürfe noch an meinem Tee und dann geht es auf Arbeit

Das würde mich auch interessieren. Aber aus eigener Erfahrung kann ich sagen, dass das auf mich zutrifft! FLOSS ist ansteckend. :D

Ich habe lange Jahre im Microsoft-Universum "gelebt" (dahinvegetiert) - beruflich wie privat.

Bis ich dann irgendwann privat auf Linux umgestiegen bin, weil mir die ganze Werbelitanei auf die Nerven ging.
Und plötzlich erkennt man den Unterschied!
Keine Werbung, keine nervigen Pop-Ups mehr (ein Nebeneffekt, der sich ergibt, wenn man über Linux an Infos zu Adblockern etc. gelangt) ... und dann plötzlich der Moment an dem man sich selbst fragt, warum man das soo lange mitgemacht hat.

Leider bin ich auf der Arbeit immer noch im Microsoft-Universum gefangen ... und das beginnt immer mehr mir auf die Nerven zu gehen.

Aber Schritt für Schritt ... erst der private PC, dann das Handy zum größten Teil entgoogelt und dabei Meta loszuwerden ...

Das Dilemma / die Befreiung durch den Umstieg auf FOSS-Produkte, die auch Privacy ernst nehmen wird nochmal so richtig deutlich, wenn es darum geht die eigene Familie davon zu überzeugen versuchen, etwas mehr auf Datenschutz, Datenhoheit und Selbstverantwortlichkeit im Umgang mit den Daten zu achten.

Das ist schwer.
Im Moment fehlt mir noch der letzte finale Motivations-Kick ... aber kommt Zeit, kommt XMPP & Co. !

So auch die Weiterentwicklung von Mastodon hin zu Hubzilla (noch recht neu dabei).

Vielleicht ist die "steter-Tropen-höhlt-den-Stein"-Taktik ein gangbarer Weg für mich ... wir werden sehen.

I mean, the Fediverse already has Lemmy, KBin, and MBin.

So there's already an ecosystem of pre-built communities out there.

/kbin is dead. Has been since last year. The last instances that haven't moved to Mbin are withering away.

However, in the "Lemmy clone" category, there's also PieFed, and Sublinks is still in development.

Also, the Facebook alternative Friendica ("Facebook alternative" not as in "Facebook clone", but as in "better than Facebook") has had groups since its launch in, 2010, five and a half years before Mastodon. Hubzilla has had groups since 2012 when it still was a Friendica fork named Red. (streams) (2021) and Forte (2024) have groups, too. All four are part of the same software family, created by the same developer. And interacting with their groups from Mastodon is somewhat smoother than interacting with a Lemmy community.

On Friendica, a group is simply another user account, but with different settings: In "Mastodon speak", it automatically boosts any DM sent to it to all its followers. In reality, it's a little more complicated because, unlike Mastodon, Friendica has a concept of threaded conversations. (No, seriously, Mastodon doesn't have it. If you think Mastodon has it, use Friendica for a year or two as your only daily driver, and then think again.)

Likewise, on Hubzilla, (streams) and Forte, it's another channel with similar settings.

@Jorge Candeias Bad idea. (Hubzilla user here.)

Hashtags are not only for discoverability (and critically so on Mastodon). They're also the preferred way of triggering the automatic generation of individual reader-side content warnings.

Content warnings that are automatically generated for each user individually based on keyword lists have a long tradition in the Fediverse. Friendica has had them long before Mastodon even existed, much less before Mastodon hijacked the summary field for content warnings. Hubzilla has had them since its own inception which was before Mastodon, too. (streams) has them, Forte has them.

On all four, automated reader-side content warnings are an integral part of their culture. And users of all four (those who are not recent Mastodon converts at least, i.e. those who entered the Fediverse by joining Friendica in the early 2010s) insist in automated reader-side content warnings being vastly better than Mastodon's poster-side content warnings that are forced upon everyone all the same.

Oh, and by the way, Mastodon has this feature, too. It has only introduced it in October, 2022, and since the re-definition of Mastodon's culture in mid-2022 pre-dates it, it is not part of Mastodon's culture. But Mastodon has this feature.

However, in order for these content warnings to be generated, there needs to be a trigger. The safest way is by hashtags: If you post content that not everyone may want to see, add corresponding hashtags, enough to cover as many people as possible. If you don't want to see certain content right away, add the corresponding hashtags as keywords to NSFW (Friendica, Hubzilla, (streams), Forte) or a CW-generating filter (Mastodon).

In fact, hashtags can also be used to completely filter out content that you don't want to see at all. And they can be used to trigger such filters. This should work everywhere in the Fediverse.

I myself post stuff that some people don't want to see all the time. Hence, I need a whole lot of hashtags.

Let me explain the "hashtag wall" at the bottom of this comment to you.

  • #Long, #LongPost
    This comment is over 500 characters long. Many Mastodon users don't want to see any content that exceeds 500 characters. They can filter either or both of these hashtags and at least get rid of my content with over 500 characters.
    Why two hashtags? Because I can't know beforehand which one of them people will filter. And because I can't know beforehand which of one of them people will search for or follow.
  • #CWLong, #CWLongPost
    The same as above, but making clear that it's supposed to stand in for a content warning ("CW: long (over 8,300 characters)"). Also, filtering these instead of the above has less of a chance of false positives than the above.
    Why two hashtags? Because I can't know beforehand which one of them people will filter. And because I can't know beforehand which of one of them people will search for or follow.
  • #FediMeta, #FediverseMeta
    This comment contains Fediverse meta content. Some people don't want to read anything about the Fediverse, not even as by-catch or boosted to them by someone whom they follow or even only on their federated timeline. They can filter either or both of these.
    Why two hashtags? Because I can't know beforehand which one of them people will filter. And because I can't know beforehand which of one of them people will search for or follow.
  • #CWFediMeta, #CWFediverseMeta
    The same as above, but making clear that it's supposed to stand in for a content warning ("CW: Fediverse meta" or, in this case, "CW: Fediverse meta, Fediverse-beyond-Mastodon meta").
    Why two hashtags? Because I can't know beforehand which one of them people will filter. And because I can't know beforehand which of one of them people will search for or follow.
  • #Fediverse
    This comment is about the Fediverse. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about the Fediverse find my comment.
  • #Mastodon
    This comment touches Mastodon as a topic. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about Mastodon find my comment.
  • #Friendica
    This comment touches Friendica as a topic. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic, especially if you don't know what the hell Friendica is, but you're curious. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about Friendica find my comment.
  • #Hubzilla
    This comment touches Hubzilla as a topic. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic, especially if you don't know what the hell Hubzilla is, but you're curious. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about Hubzilla find my comment.
  • #Streams, #(streams)
    This comment touches (streams) as a topic. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic, especially if you don't know what the hell the streams repository is, but you're curious. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about (streams) find my comment.
    Why two hashtags if they're the same on Mastodon? Because they are not the same on Friendica, Hubzilla (again, that's where I am), (streams) itself and Forte. If I have to choose between catering to the technologies and cultures of Friendica, Hubzilla, (streams) and Forte and catering to Mastodon's, I will always choose the former.
  • #Forte
    This comment touches Forte as a topic. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic, especially if you don't know what the hell Forte is, but you're curious. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about Forte find my comment.
  • #MastodonCulture
    This comment touches Mastodon culture as a topic. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic, including critical views upon how Mastodon users try to force Mastodon's 2022 culture upon the users of Fediverse server applications that are very different from Mastodon, and that have had their own culture for much longer. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about Mastodon culture find my comment.
  • #Hashtag, #Hashtags
    This comment touches hashtags as a topic. If you don't like it, you can filter it out. Otherwise, click it or tap it to find more content on the topic. Also, the hashtag helps people looking for content about hashtags and their implications find my comment.
    Why two hashtags? Because I can't know beforehand which one of them people will filter. And because I can't know beforehand which of one of them people will search for or follow.
  • #HashtagMeta
    This comment contains hashtag meta content. Some people don't want to read anything about it, not even as by-catch or boosted to them by someone whom they follow or even only on their federated timeline. They can filter either it.
  • #CWHashtagMeta
    The same as above, but making clear that it's supposed to stand in for a content warning ("CW: hashtag meta").

By the way: Hashtags for triggering filters are even more important on Hubzilla in comments when Mastodon users may see them. That's because Hubzilla cannot add Mastodon-style content warnings to comments (= everything that replies to something else; here on Hubzilla, it's very different from a post that isn't a reply). What's a content warning on Mastodon is still (and justifiedly so) a summary on Hubzilla. But from a traditional blogging point of view (Hubzilla can very much be used for full-fledged long-form blogging with all bells and whistles), a summary for a comment doesn't make sense. Thus, the comment editors have no summary field on Hubzilla. Thus, I can't add Mastodon-style CWs to comments here on Hubzilla.

@zeitverschreib [friendica] Ich bin auf Hubzilla und (streams), und ich kann sagen, das ist nicht gut fürs Muskelgedächtnis. Aber es ist machbar.

Von Friendica ist es natürlich sowieso ein Riesenumdenken, weil (streams) nicht einfach "Red Matrix 2.0" ist, also nicht einfach Friendica mit nomadischer Identität. Schon als Zap 2018 entstand, wo das UI allmählich umgebaut wurde, hatte Friendica seit sieben Jahren neue Entwickler, die schon auf die Entwicklung von Red Matrix und Hubzilla keine Rücksicht mehr nahmen.

(streams) faßt jetzt fast alle Einstellungen unter Burgermenü > Einstellungen zusammen. Das heißt, das Herumgehühner mit den Zahnrädern oben links entfällt, wobei es /settings/features immer noch gibt und es immer noch keinen Weg über das UI dahin gibt. Jedenfalls stellst du da auch die kanalweiten Berechtigungen ein (wobei "Kanal" keine Auswahl an Inhalten ist, die reinkommen, sondern eine Identität, von der du auf einem Konto mehrere separate haben kannst, quasi wie mehrere Friendica-Konten, aber mit einem und demselben Login).

Gewisse Features sind optional; wie Hubzilla ist auch (streams) hochgradig modular. Das heißt, die wirst du erst auf der Admin-Seite als "App" aktivieren müssen und dann auf der Nutzer-Seite als "App" "installieren" müssen. Einige Sachen, die auf Hubzilla noch eine App sind, sind auf (streams) in den Kern eingebaut.

Berechtigungsrollen (Hubzilla: Kontaktrollen) sind jetzt umgekehrt standardmäßig zumindest für Nutzer nicht mehr installiert, weil man die nicht mehr braucht. Auf Hubzilla sind ja Kontaktrollen zwingend notwendig, weil sie die einzige Möglichkeit sind, die Berechtigungen eines Kontakts zu steuern. Auf (streams) kannst du bei jedem Kontakt jede Berechtigung einzeln schalten; Berechtigungsrollen sind einfach nur Presets, um dir das Leben leichter zu machen, wenn du bei gewissen Kontakten eh immer dasselbe einstellst.

Übrigens: Was "teilen" auf Friendica ist, heißt auf Hubzilla und (streams) "wiederholen". "Teilen" auf Hubzilla und (streams) dürfte auf Friendica "mit Zitat teilen" sein.

Ansonsten guck dir mal meine Mastodon/Friendica/Hubzilla/(streams)-Vergleichstabellen an.

Support für (streams) gibt's bei @Streams. Außerdem kannst du dich an @Der Pepe (nomád) ⁂ ⚝ wenden, der betreibt auch zwei Hubzilla-Hubs und je einen (streams)- und Forte-Server, oder auch mal an mich. Am aktivsten bin ich hier auf Hubzilla; auf (streams) findest du mich als @Jupiter's Fedi-Memes on (streams) (mein Outlet für Fediverse-Memes; wenig aktiv) und @Jupiter Rowland's (streams) outlet (mein Outlet für Bilder aus OpenSim; noch weniger aktiv).

and it doesn't look like you can attach documents to posts

You can't on Mastodon. I could, both here on Hubzilla and on (streams) where I post my images.

But I wouldn't have to. Vanilla Mastodon has a character limit of 500. Hubzilla has a character "limit" that's so staggeringly high that nobody knows how high it is because it doesn't matter. (streams), from the same creator and the same software family as Hubzilla, has a character "limit" of over 24,000,000 which is not an arbitrary design decision but simply the size of the database field.

By the way: Both are in the Fediverse, and both are federated with Mastodon, so Mastodon's "all media must have accurate and sufficiently detailed descriptions" rule applies there as well unless you don't care if thousands upon thousands of Mastodon users block you for not supplying image and media descriptions.

In theory, I could publish a video of ten minutes, and in the same post, I could add a full, timestamped description that takes several hours to read. Verbatim transcript of all spoken words. Detailed description of the visuals where "detailed" means "as detailed as Mastodon loves its alt-texts" as in "800 characters of alt-text or more for a close-up of a single flower in front of a blurry background" detailed. Detailed description of all camera movements and cuts. Description of non-spoken-word noises. All timestamped, probably with over a hundred timestamps for the whole description of ten minutes of video.

Now I'm wondering if that could be helpful or actually required, or if it's overkill and actually a hindrance.

@daniel Vollkommen d'accord, ja. Den letzteren Teil müssen wir dort vermutlich noch üben. Und den Umstand, dass manche dieser Themen in nicht-AP-Protokollen wie Zot bzw auf Plattformen wie #Hubzilla schon besser umgesetzt sind, sollte man dann vielleicht auch nochmal diskutieren. Mein Respekt vor AP und dem Spec-Gremium hat in den letzten Jahren dort sehr gelitten, und insgesamt fühlt sich das Ergebnis von Woche zu Woche irgendwie ... unbrauchbarer an, zumindest für die Ambition, die dahintersteht. Viele Punkte waren lästig, aber nicht schlimm; Privacy ist einer, der wirklich heftig wehtut. Dass man dergleichen selbst in den 2010ern derart lax und unverbindlich definiert, werd ich wohl nie verstehen. Was momentan übrig zu bleiben scheint, ist eine Neuerfindung von asynchroner nachrichtenbasierter Kommunikation auf Basis von HTTP mit JSON-Content und ein lose definiertes, natürlich erweiterbares Vokabular für die Nachrichten. Da hätte man so viel lernen können aus den E-Mail-Protokollen, NNTP, XMPP-PubSub oder auch frühen/anderen Fediverse-Protokollen wie OStatus oder Zot und deren Stärken und Schwächen.
@jools
@Joaquim Homrighausen @Kevin Beaumont To be fair, full data portability via ActivityPub has only been available in a stable release of anything for two weeks.

That was when @Mike Macgirvin 🖥️'s Forte, created in mid-August of 2024 as a fork of his own streams repository and the latest member of a family of software that started in 2010 with Friendica, had its very first official stable release.

And, in fact, Forte just uses ActivityPub to do something that (streams) and its predecessors all the way to the Red Matrix from 2012 (known as Hubzilla since 2015) have been doing using the Nomad protocol (formerly known as Zot). It's called nomadic identity. This is technology that's over a dozen years old on software that was built around this technology from the get-go, only that it was recently ported to ActivityPub.

Now, nomadic identity via ActivityPub was @silverpill's idea. He wanted to make his Mitra nomadic. He started working in 2023. The first conversion of existing non-nomadic server software to nomadic still isn't fully done, much less officially rolled out as a stable release.

If Mastodon actually wanted to implement nomadic identity, they would first have to wait until Mitra has a first stable nomadic release. Then they would have to wait until nomadic identity on Mitra (and between Mitra and Forte) has become stable and reliable under daily non-lab conditions. (Support for nomadic identity via ActivityPub on (streams) worked nicely under lab conditions. When it was rolled out to the release branch, and existing instances upgraded to it, it blew up in everyone's faces, and it took months for things to stabilise again.)

Then they would have to look at how silverpill has done it and how Mike has done it. Then they would have to swallow their pride and decide to adopt technology that they can't present as their own original invention because it clearly isn't. And they would have to swallow their pride again and decide against making it incompatible with Mitra, Forte and (streams) just to make these three look broken and inferior to Mastodon.

And only then they could actually start coding.

Now look at how long silverpill has been working on rebuilding Mitra into something nomadic. This takes a whole lot of modifications because the concept of identity itself has to be thrown overboard and redefined because your account will no longer be your identity and vice versa. Don't expect them to be done in a few months.

New Blogpost: Schleswig-Holstein auf der Fedikarte:



Das ist die #Fedikarte, auf der sich Leute mit einem Fediverse-Account einfach selbst eintragen können. Die Idee finde ich klasse, da es doch noch mal ein etwas anderes Gruppengefühl erzeugt, wenn man sieht, wer alles in der eigenen Umgebung im Fediverse aktiv ist. Ich freue mich, das hier in Schleswig-Holstein schon so viele Accounts darauf sichtbar sind (aber es können gerne noch ein paar mehr werden 😉). Für #Hubzilla -Nutzer:innen gilt dabei etwas zu beachten […]


#Fediverse #SchleswigHolstein
...freue ich mich über das Konzept von Hubzilla, welches verhindert, dass ich Opfer bestimmter Spam-Aktionen werde.

Derzeit tobt wohl mal wieder ein Spammer (ob reale Person oder Script... egal) durch das Fediverse, welcher mit wechselnden Fediverse-Accounts (Kanälen) jede Menge Nutzer anschreibt und nach dem Blocken einfach eine neue Identität benutzt.

Ist mir nicht selbst aufgefallen, sondern kann man an etlichen Stellen derzeit lesen.

Konnte mir selbst auch nicht auffallen, weil ich Hubzilla (und (streams) und Forte) nutze, um am Fediverse teilzunehmen. Und Hubzilla bietet in der Hinsicht einen tollen Schutz vor solchen Problemen. Beiträge von Personen, die sich nicht in meiner Verbindungs-Liste befinden, landen nicht in meinem Stream (woanders "Timeline" genannt) und ich werde auch nicht benachrichtigt.

Das ist die Standard-Einstellung für Kanäle bei Hubzilla. Möchte man es aber ermöglichen, auch von Fremden (Nutzer, mit denen man keine Verbindung hat) Beiträge in die Timeline zu bekommen und benachrichtigt zu werden, auch wenn das dann o.g. Spam ermöglicht, kann man dies in den Einstellungen → Privacy-Einstellungen → Accept all messages which mention you This setting bypasses normal permissions einschalten.
