[subpost; toxic BlueSky drama] just stumbled into a rabbit-hole leading to the most rancid and spiteful thread I've seen in quite a while, all starting with an innocuous notification "[redacted] has added you to the 'No' moderation list". Apparently the sequence of events was: - Someone (A) […]

If you run a peertube instance and have not patched in the past 4 hours, you are way behind and likely have been compromised. The latest patch will help clean up the mess.

Does anyone know of any maintained Misskey forks other than Sharkey?

need

i need to be held and reassured everything is gonna be okay

[re: adult topics (maybe NSFW, but not lewd)] @hazelnoot apparently I do that and I'm afraid of leaking information (like passwords) that way

OK #Firefox users, this is a special request. I'm looking for someone with a high-end Raptor Lake machine that is experiencing instability in Firefox (or anything else for the matter). The best candidate is a CPU from the 13900* SKUs. K or not doesn't matter as long as it's one with the 8P+16E […]

The Wikimedia Foundation has dissolved the Community Tech team and laid off 5 engineers + 1 manager while unionization efforts are ongoing. Contributors are raising concerns about loss of community-focused engineering, possible union busting and growing disconnect between WMF leadership and […]

I really gotta start on this ASAP, I'm tired of my bridged account having no profile and placeholder PFP 😭

⚠️ #sw_isac_advisory The IFTAS Do Not Interact domain denylist has been updated. Recent additions have been identified as federating illegal content such as #csam and #tvec based on human review. If your service imports the IFTAS DNI denylist, please update accordingly […]

New roadmap for Campfire-sharkey's AP validation rewrite branch: - Remove unused LD signature validation code from `LdSignatureService` and drop plan to integrate with `AuthorizedFetchService`. - Move LD / HTTP _generation_ code into `LdSignatureService` and `HttpSignatureService`. - Deprecate […]

THIS JUST IN: “Boobytrap” spelled backwards is “partyboob.” That information is now in your head forever.

i'm about one or two adult content censorship policies away from just boosting porn on main. don't fuck with my homies making cool fckn art for a living. only deferring this as a heads-up: i still prefer when artists label their content as nsfw and i encourage my followers to check their […]

Update: we have adjusted the timeline; now Actor key rotation will occur _before_ the update, on May 18th or 19th. This may impact federation with older AP software, and GoToSocial. We will preserve a backup of all current Actor keys in case federation recovery is needed.

oop, looks like Bridgy picked up the "redacted" fallback copy of my AP Actor again :/ Maybe I can force an `Update(Person)` to kick it back to normal

And for all you Sharkey admins who insist on using my unstable branches despite dozens of warnings, don't worry - `hazelnoot/fix-recent-regressions` will be rebased and updated on the same day. RE: https://sharkey.team/notes/amckzae8d8ka0001

[PH- (hypotension)] Am I winning, chat? ​:floofWoozy:​

Every time I see someone on Fedi complain about being asked to use #ContentWarnings, they're always the most insufferable person imaginable. The exact kind of "my message is bigger than your safety" type of asshole who's the reason we need CWs in the first place.

I need a labeler to warn for "USA flag in bio" 😬

it's nice when the engagement farmers are just *open* about it

yeah sorry, I'm not accepting follow requests from accounts from 100K+ following. There's no way you personally saw, reviewed, and followed that many people.

I should build a simple labeler for "missing parts" like "bridged to fediverse" (checks for bridgy fed, wafrn, etc), "unsolicited follow" (follow request without any prior interaction), "american flag in bio" (self-explanatory)

I can't decide whether this is clever or evil 🤔 (this fedi instance has bridged their system proxy account over Bridgy Fed, allowing users on the instance to "follow" bridged BlueSky users without having to bridge their *own* accounts back)

weird to see someone with "NSFW accounts DNI" actively interacting with my own NSFW posts 🫤

I keep hearing people say AIs are "better at coding than people." First of all, no, they're FASTER at coding than people, which is not at all the same thing. Second, am I the only one who remembers when what folks in this industry do was called "software ENGINEERING," which is not at all the […]

Reminder that BlueSky's head of Trust and Safety, Aaron Rodericks, got caught liking porn on his official account and was so embarrassed that he *changed platform rules* and is still, to this day, abusing his role to weaponize moderation against anyone who talks about it.

[plurality, question for other systems, pls boost] 🔥 Hey. Do any other systems on here have experience/advice how to facilitate the transfer of the host role from one headmate to another? I don't have verbal confirmation from her yet, but I also don't feel any pushback against the feeling/idea […]

Another BlueSky outage lol

What the fuck is it with bots commenting pics of kids in war zones under my images have yall lost your mind?

PowerShell remains my least-favorite scripting environment - because it _could have_ been great. It's got so many advantages over basically every linux shell, but the benefits are totally wiped out by a handful of asinine decisions that make it inconvenient for like 90% of simple use cases.
