  • Good morning,
    Good morning,
    Good morning,

    I posted a few things over the past days, and some people noticed that I have been more absent than usual. I think it is right to give an update on the situation.

    Starting in mid-December, my wife came down with the flu. Nothing serious, but it left her with a problem that all the doctors we consulted have identified as long flu. Similar to long COVID, it is a debilitating condition, at times completely disabling. She started a treatment, but had some issues and had to change it. This treatment, however, makes the symptoms worse for a few weeks before improving them, and the result is that we are currently in that phase: she is not well, she is worried, and of course I am too.

    This has given me time, over the past weeks, to focus on projects like MastoBlaster, also to keep my mind active on something different, something good for my spirit and mental well-being.

    But in these days, probably the hardest in years, I am in "emergencies only" mode, or almost. No tiramisu, few outings, some good lasagna - but mostly concern and hope for a return to normality. The doctors told her that in her case it is a temporary condition, but it is not clear exactly how long it will last, which is why there is a treatment, to help her live normally while everything gradually returns to normal. In the meantime, I am the solid part, but clearly I also have to take care of everything she usually handles.

    Life is more often uphill than downhill, so we need to make the most of the good moments and not focus on trivial things. This is why I have always tried to make this place a positive and peaceful one: we all have battles to fight, serious or less serious problems, happiness and despair. Here, at least, we can focus on what you enjoy.

    So I leave you with two coffees, made with my mother’s moka pot, which remind me of a peaceful day in this period when the sky outside and the climate inside are the same color: gray.

    @stefano it will get better! I am myself still in crunch mode with kids, while working a full time job, lefting me sometimes with just 2 hours/week of free time for my self to choose between doing sport or some side projects. I am 8 years in in this kind of "hell", hope to gain more free time for myself in the future.

    @stefano Allora, buongiorno.. Hard to read such a story that influences lives of my friends (even if just those virtual ones).

    And I'm usually not that "optimistic kind" of guy, but hey - you'll see it'll get better. Sunnier days, wamer days, it will all help to see things in a more positive way. And I think that positive thinking and better mental energy also will help with the state of the body.

    Sending best wishes from Prague 👋 ☕

    @stefano I hope your wife recovers soon!

    My wife has had M.E./Chronic Fatigue since she was 15 so I know how debilitating it can be. I take every day one day at a time. Some days she has really good days, and others she doesn't. I feel really blessed to have her in my life and couldn't imagine living any other way.

    Joy can be found even in the grey.

    Now witness the power of this fully operational Fediverse!https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/11/now-witness-the-power-of-this-fully-operational-fediverse/How can you measure the popularity of a social network site? Perhaps by counting the number of active accounts, or the quality of the discourse, or even how many people reply to your witty memes.Me? I prefer to look at how many people visit my blog from each site. It is an imperfect measure - and a vain one - but lets me know where I should be spending my time. No point posting on a network which is just bots talking to each other, right?Earlier this year I built a stats-counter for my blog. Every time someone clicks from a website which links to my blog, it records that visit in a database. I get to see which blog posts are doing numbers, and where those numbers came from.Until fairly recently, the Mastodon social network didn't send referer details. I thought that reduced the visibility of the network and lobbied for it to change. As various Mastodon servers upgrade, and admins opt-in, it is becoming more apparent just how much traffic originates from the Fediverse.Over the last few weeks, here's how many people have clicked from BlueSky and Mastodon to one of my blog posts.TotalSource1,607bsky.app752mastodon.socialAt first glance, it doesn't look good for our elephantine friends, does it? The butterfly sends over twice the traffic. Game over!But, of course, while Mastodon.social is the biggest instance - it is far from the only one. What happens if we slide down the long tail? Here's all the Mastodon-ish instances which sent me over 10 clicks.TotalSource193phanpy.social120 android-app://org.joinmastodon.android/106infosec.exchange62mas.to59mstdn.social55social.vivaldi.net49wandering.shop48fosstodon.org33mathstodon.xyz27mastodon.online26mastodon.scot24app.wafrn.net19indieweb.social18social.lol17tech.lgbt17toot.wales16en.osm.town16feditrends.com14mstdn.ca14piefed.social12wetdry.world11c.im11mastodon.nl51 Sites sending < 10 clicksAh! Add them all up and you get a grand total of 1,773 visitors from Mastodon-powered sites. That's more than BlueSky.Now, there are some obvious caveats to the data:I have a smaller follower count on BlueSky than I do on Mastodon.My posts may appeal more to one demographic than another.People may have strict privacy controls which suppress the true volume of visitors.There's no way to measure how long someone spends reading my posts.RSS and newsletter visitors aren't counted.Clicks from apps may not always show a referer.Some people may be on multiple services.Fediverse users can follow the post directly, so don't need to visit the site to read it.And yet… no matter how you slice it, Fediverse servers are sending as much traffic as BlueSky!I think this is brilliant. Web services should be able to scale from small to big - and each ActivityPub-powered site helps power the open Internet.Just for completeness, this is how Reddit, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Lemmy do over the same period:TotalSource1,158reddit.com585 android-app://com.reddit.frontpage/76facebook.com76https://old.reddit.com/r/programming/56https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/52youtube.com41t.co38https://old.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/1nsw7f4/til_in_mongolia_instead_of_a_street_address_a/31linkedin.com27 android-app://io.syncapps.lemmy_sync/27https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/1nsw7f4/til_in_mongolia_instead_of_a_street_address_a/22https://old.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1n96ftn/40_years_later_are_bentleys_programming_pearls/22lemmy.ca17 android-app://com.linkedin.android/16lemmy.dbzer0.com14feddit.org11https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1n96ftn/40_years_later_are_bentleys_programming_pearls/10discuss.tchncs.de10l.instagram.com8lemmy.blahaj.zone6https://www.reddit.com/r/GrapheneOS/comments/1m2l84b/considering_making_the_switch_does_google_pay/6reddthat.comIf you add up all the Lemmy instances, they send about as much traffic as Facebook and LinkedIn combined. That's not a huge surprise - those platforms hate anyone clicking away to the wider web.Twitter is basically the Dead Internet. I'm no longer on there, but I do occasionally search it to see who is sharing my posts. The popular posts I write get shared a lot - sometimes by accounts with huge followers - yet there are no comments or retweets and barely and clicks.I don't do Instagram or Threads, and that might be reflected in their low numbers. But I'm not active on YouTube either - yet people there occasionally link back to me.Final ThoughtsFirstly, my stats only represent my site. Your site might be very different.Secondly, I've ignored search engine traffic, big blogs, newsletters, and other sources.Thirdly, and most importantly, this isn't a competition! The desire for a "winner-takes-all" service is dangerous and disturbing. An ecosystem is at its most vibrant when there are multiple participants each thriving in their own niche.I want a thousand sites, running a hundred different software stacks, some of which only serve a dozen people, or even a lone participant.Diversity is strength.#activitypub #bluesky #fediverse #mastodon #statistics

    Check out this progress on #Atlas. In about two weeks, we've gone from tooting an 85mph brainstorm on I70 to a fledgling app that lets me annotate any location on the globe, and share it over #ActivityPubSo here's a quick video of where it is right now. There's still a lot to do before anyone can really use it. But there's enough here for me to ask for your help. I would love to hear what you think and to start talking to everyone out there who's interested in making maps on the #Fediverse.
