Need help folks! Planning to move to a new instance, want my posts, reposts, favorites, bookmarks either as a read-only archive or exported to my new instance. Can blind-first apps like Fedra @TheQuinbox or FastSM @MewProjects allow a full buffer export if I load everything into them? Or @FediTips Is there an unofficial way to export or bring it all to a new instance? Any suggestions much appreciated!#Mastodon #Fediverse #FediHelp #Accessibility #Blind

@slowtiger Eher unwahrscheinlich. Ihr denke, der bereits genannte Buntspecht wird es wohl gewesen sein.

@peterkotrcka probably the ad blocker as per your post. Find Newpipe on phone better for remembering video positions.

Anyone from #croatia willing to be a coauthor on a paper that I submitted to an event there? If accepted one of the authors must present it and I'm a little too far to do it. DM me if you are interested and we talk details.#fedihelp #ontology #academics

@oblomov @jesuisatire @studi0And if I remember correctly OpenClipart hosts Public Domain svgs. I'm a proud contributor since long.

@_thegeoff Hm. Not impossible? I'll try turning that checkbox off the next time I'm on Zoom and see what happens.

@bbfnart I have sporadically seen this kind of stuff, usually starting by this or that artist out of personal initiative, and I agree that it's an incredible way of discovering new artists (heck, I remember this even from the old webcomic days when everyone had their own website and this was one of the primary ways in which artists helped each other gain visibility). I guess that here the only way to get something like this started is to do the legwork? Hopefully your call gets heard!

@JorisMeys You could use Crossref metadata. Point them to api.crossref.org and explore millions of records about different scholarly content

@randulo In my opinion it's just lazyness. I use DeepL to translate whatever I do not understand correctly.

I exported ALL my emails from my Gmail account. It's over 2 GB of stuff, i've had the account for probably 20 years? This move is one step towards closing it, at some point. I will delete all the exported emails now.Anyway. The archive was delivered in a .mbox file and I'm wondering if the fediverse knows of a tool, software or anything (preferably run locally) to browse my archive on my laptop (it' got Mint).Boosts very welcome, thank you! ❤️‍🔥[EDIT] Thank you everyone! It appears the most obvious piece of software is also the right now: my complete archive is now orderly browsable with Thunderbird. One more step towards freeeedomm! 🧚#fedihelp #gmail #fuckGoogle #google

#fedihelp #mastodon is there an easy way to enable sson with an existing user? I implemented oauth on my server and it works, but I can't find a way to enable it for me XD

Dear fediverse,In #Portugal, and several other European countries, new laws are in the making to implement age verification on the internet. On the discussions about it, the topic of EU Digital Identity Wallet, and its age verification scheme, comes up. But the knowledge about it is very low, causing unnecessary and repetitive discussions, noise that prevents more useful discussions. My question is: do you know (and can you share) good resources about how EUDI - and its age verification - works? Non-tech articles, images, graphics, workflows, videos, anything you think might be helpful, please share in a comment below.The best conversations are informed conversations: thank you for your help! 🙏 #eu #fedihelp #eudi

@cptbuttonI would do it in a Lemmy instance.

Dearest #Fediverse Hivemind We need your glitters and sparks. It's about water and empowering people / grassroots communities.We are urgently seeking cuvettes as donations, or at very low prices, for our #OpenHardware spectrometer in order to continue our R&D and, above all, to analyze water wherever we can.We are convinced that somewhere in this network of networks of wonderful people, someone knows someone who has a bag of infrared spectro cuvettes under a desk/in a lab.Then training people and groups, investigating issues, reporting with journalists, so on and so forth.We would like to avoid using polluting mass transportation across the globe; we would like to create meaningful connections that foster conviviality.It's infra-red spectro https://www.gaudi.ch/GaudiLabs/?page_id=1124https://forum.hack2o.eu/t/diy-spectrometry-on-a-tap-water-sample/46https://forum.hack2o.eu/t/combiner-spectrometrie-et-bioessais-dans-nos-analyses-des-eaux/344/2 #Help #FediHelp #WaterIsLife

oh ok so *here's* a neat feature of #Mastodon lists that I had hitherto been unaware of:You can set them to include replies from list members to:- No one- Members of the List- Any followed userThis is REALLY COOL. The 🤯 option for me personally is to be able to include only replies that members of the list sent to other members of the list. Great for "Local" lists, or lists for a busy topic bubble!You can also change this setting later!#Fediverse #mastodonMeta #fediHelp

It’s #Sunday, where are you scrolling #Mastodon from today? #Fediverse #FediHelp #Laptop #Desktop #Phone #Tablet #Poll

I think I have identified a fairly significant flaw in how the #Fediverse currently operates. Hear me out.The Fediverse currently consists of all sorts of different systems - #Mastodon, #Friendica , #Pixelfed , #PeerTube, #BookWyrm , and so forth. And while they are all connected via the #ActivityPub protocol, they all have different functionalities and different ways of presenting themselves. Which is as it should be, because Diversity Is Our Strength(TM).However, it is here that the ActivityPub-based interactivity hits its limits - for usually, you can either experience the relevant system as it was intended, or you can interact with it, but not both - _unless_ you have an account on the same system (though not necessarily on the same instance).Let's say that you are a Mastodon user who looks at another person's BookWyrm page. You scroll through their books, posts, and comments. Then you see some comment you want to comment on yourself, but can you do so?Not directly. You need to figure out the URL of their comment, and then copy and paste that comment into the search bar of your Mastodon instance. Then it will show up in the same format as a Mastodon post, and you can interact with it - boost it, like it, comment on it.Sure, it works, but it's a whole lot of tedious effort.Or you can search for the user account in Mastodon and scroll through all their posts and comments as if they were a Mastodon user - and thus, you will miss out on all the unique user interface features of BookWyrm.So what is missing?Well, Mastodon already has an "Open original page" feature when looking at someone's post. What we need is an "Open original page AND AUTHENTICATE" feature. This way, the target instance (whatever software they are using) could acknowledge the viewer as an external user who could nevertheless fully interact with the local user interface, including the ability to boost, like, and make comments.This is something that should be theoretically possible to implement, right? #FediHelp

@niq@norden.social @niq yay welcome back! 👋

@juergen_hubert1. Italy2. Lack of a spread knowledge about the Fediverse, lack of the public people you like (politicians, journalists, musicians, etc.), lack of friends (none of my friends is on the Fediverse).

@wjmaggos @benpate we talked today in the SWICG Geosocial task force meeting.
