Dear #fosfem people. There is a massive #pixelfed server now in Europe: https://pixelfed.com open for everyone (just people, no organsations).
Hosted from the Netherlands under Dutch law and funded by the @fediversity project.
Please enter a human reason when onboarding (due to AI slop we must do that).
Do join and boost please. šš»
@koen @fediversity doesn't the .com TLD mean a bit of a vulnerability to US control?

@koen yeah, this sounds nice. is it you who is responsible? @fediversity

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @koen @fediversity please note that āmassiveā here is just a word. the instance seems to have 655 total users and 139 active users. that makes it a small-mid instance, not a massive one
of course that could change soon if the plan is to become massive. but in the meantime let's just look behind the words before we use them, okay?
Fair enough, I think, however then did the emphasis should be still on creating a broad spectrum of what I prefer to call communities rather than servers.
Itās more human. The foremost focus should be on distributed in the fediverse

@koen @fediversity wanted to sign up and it threw me out because at the end it tells me my user name is invalid. Tja. I don't want to go through all that sign up again. It is not user friendly, if you are not showing at once, when a form field input is not valid.

@koen I was under the impression I was already on it, but it is the .social one, can one move accounts? And you cannot login using your Mastdon credentials, isn't it?
@krijnsoeteman @koen be careful with moving accounts between different Pixelfed instances. I lost all my contacts once. (I'm not the only one) make backup if you try.

# FOSDEM #Fediverse #Privacy
Does the Pixelfed software protect user privacy? Does it encrypt user data? Is private messaging, if this is a feature, end to end encrypted?

@koen @fediversity How did you implement approvals? I can't find that anywhere in my instance settings? Or maybe it's there but won't allow listing in the directory if I enable it ..? -
@axel @koen @fediversity or 'please hand us your government identification' for verification.
@wsslmn @koen @fediversity
At least then you know your users are not dogs š! -
@rriemann @fediversity it is backed by oid.foundation
@koen @rriemann @fediversity is there a donation link or something to support?

@koen Beetje lullig, misschien, maar waarom een .com domein voor een Europese server? .com is immers een toplevel domein dat door de VS wordt beheerd...
-
@retech @fediversity that is incorrect we will have a look at the terms on Monday, itās probably a result of an upgrade of the software.
@koen @fediversity cheers

@koen @rriemann @fediversity is there a donation link or something to support?
@bloodymirova @rriemann @fediversity
there is not yet. All costs are covered by the @EUCommission @fediversity project for now, so don't worry about it right now.

@koen @fediversity How did you implement approvals? I can't find that anywhere in my instance settings? Or maybe it's there but won't allow listing in the directory if I enable it ..?
There is a team of about 5 people that checks the new submissions for a few things:
1. is this a real human
2. is this not an organization
3. does this person not impersonate anyoneIf the answer to those questions is yes the account is approved.
The rest of the moderation is based on people reporting to us that something is not according to the rules, after which we will check if that is so and take appropriate action.

@koen yeah, this sounds nice. is it you who is responsible? @fediversity
This server has been setup as part of the
@fediversity project in collaboration with @dansup who also supplies the pixelfed.com domainname. -
@koen @fediversity wanted to sign up and it threw me out because at the end it tells me my user name is invalid. Tja. I don't want to go through all that sign up again. It is not user friendly, if you are not showing at once, when a form field input is not valid.
agreed. The signup process can be improved. Would you be so kind as to provide me with some more detail in private?
-
@koen @fediversity doesn't the .com TLD mean a bit of a vulnerability to US control?
Indeed the .tld domain was not our first choice. But is is very short and @dansup had it available, so we chose to use it.
We might start some more 'themed' pixelfed servers as part of the @fediversity project with the .eu domainname, but at least you can now try out pixelfed.com while your data is being governed by a Dutch foundation that has Privacy and democratic values at the core of it's existance.

@koen no need to do it in private: just do the checking process for every field when one jumps to the next field. So people see at once, oh, my name as a character in it, that isn't allowed, like mine: energisch_ - it isn't allowed according to those rules to have a special character at the end of the name.
What happened: I filled out all forms, added my lengthy reason for joining and wanted to submit the form. Then the error message came. When I wanted to go back to change my name

@fediversity@koen everything was gone. I would have to fill out everything again, not knowing, if my next 'mistake' will again have the same results.
That's rather frustrating.
Flash or mark in red every field of the form when there is an error at once, so people can remedy that at once. A lot less frustration. -

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @Stoori @fediversity
and with this too we fully agree. Would you like to 'manage' the non-technical part of such a community/server? We can take care of the technical part from the @fediversity project.

@koen @fediversity @internet_nl ā¤ļø! Zou helemaal mooi zijn als op termijn Cloudflare šŗš² daar ook tussenuit kan!
@wouterkobes @fediversity @internet_nl
Ook helemaal mee eens. Kun je dat nog een keer in het engels typen en dan Dansup taggen? š

Headed toward an ecophagy?
Scientists Create Programmable, Autonomous Robots Smaller Than a Grain of SaltIt disturbingly reminds me of The Day the Earth Stood Still, the 2008 sci-fi movie starring Keanu Reeves, where the robot GORT transforms into a swarm of winged insect-like self-replicating nano-machines, consuming everything on their path.
What can go wrong?
