✨ Better, faster and more informative!

The new https://fedidb.org redesign will be rolling out in the next few days. #fediDB

Hey, you might want to check out the other directories on here too. The newest one is Fediverse.info's at:

➡️ https://fediverse.info/explore/people

It works in a really clever way, it's sort of self-service:

You fill in your own hashtags on your profile, then you add a special hashtag too so that Fediverse.info notices you, then you submit your profile.

It's a very quick submission process because of this. More instructions on the site!

#Mastodon #Fediverse

If you have an indepdently hosted WordPress blog, you can turn it into a Fediverse server using a special plug-in. This means that people on Mastodon etc. can follow your blog and interact with it.

You can install it on your blog by logging into the WordPress dashboard, go to Plugins > Add New, then search for "ActivityPub". The plug-in you want is called "ActivityPub" and is by Matias Pfefferle.

You can also see more info about it at https://wordpress.org/plugins/activitypub and the author is on the Fediverse at @pfefferle

Once it's installed, you can find the blog's Fediverse address in your WordPress dashboard's Users section, it's listed at the bottom of the user's profile options. You can copy and paste this address into the search box on Mastodon etc to interact with that user's blog.

You'll also see an ActivityPub section in the Settings menu.

Note : This plug-in only works on independently hosted WordPress-powered blogs. It doesn't work on Wordpress.com free blogs.

Martin Scorsese Foundation Launches Virtual Screening Room, Letting You Watch Restored Classic Films for Free

Freitagshumor.

Die Deutsche Bahn sammelt ohne Einwilligung Daten: @digitalcourage klagt. Telekommunikationsdienste handeln ohne Einwilligung mit Daten: Verbraucherzentrale NRW klagt.

In #Medienerziehung und #Medienbildung müssen Eltern und Pädagog.innen schon früh über informationelle Selbstbestimmung aufklären! Das Interesse an personenbezogenen Daten wird wohl kaum abreißen und es kann nicht sein, dass erst Schindluder betrieben wird und dann nur noch Klagen den Bürger.innen helfen können. @fedieltern #fediLZ​

Wozu soll ich E-Mails verschlüsseln, ich nutze doch TLS?

TLS schützt E-Mails lediglich während ihrer Übermittlung zwischen Servern oder Clients. Erlangen Unbefugte Zugriff auf ein E-Mail Postfach oder ein E-Mail Archiv, so gewährleistet eine Ende-zu-Ende Verschlüsselung dagegen weiterhin Vertraulichkeit; auch E-Mail-Provider können dann nicht auf den Inhalt von E-Mails zugreifen.
Unter anderem deshalb hat das #BSI die Projekte #GPG4Win und #Mailvelope unterstützt.

Still debating if I should use the existing mastoapi or write more optimized api endpoints for the app.

Would you want to use the Pixelfed app with Mastodon or should I focus on just supporting Pixelfed instances?

It will take a bit more time to write the new endpoints, but they will enable more richer experiences - at the expense of mastoapi support.

#pixelfed

Hey, are there other support accounts aimed at new users on here? Would be good to give some shoutouts.

The latest one I have noted is @MastOHelp but they haven't posted in a couple of months.

(boosts appreciated)

Remember? Before the Internet? When we thought that people were dumb because they lacked access to information? Yeah. It wasn't that.
