A lesser known Mastodon pro tip:
Want to mute a conversation, but the mute conversation button isn't appearing on the post?
The only way you can mute a conversation is on a post you have made in the conversation.
But the secret part - Say you want to mute it without actually participating in the conversation:
Reply to a post, set the visibility to "Private Mention", remove everyone's username from the post. Post it.
Then you can click "mute conversation" on THAT post, and it silently mutes you from the conversation.

@Em0nM4stodon - maybe a tidbit to add to your welcome to Mastodon posts

@JessTheUnstill why the heck is it like that? AP limitation?

@JessTheUnstill I don't necessarily even blame the folks doing it, because so many are hurting... It's hard to exercise meaningful empathy when you're scared just for yourself.
But yeah, we'll never prefigure a real mutual aid economy if all it means is "I need help from you."
Good point.

There's no mute conversation button on someone else's post
Hit reply on the post - note by default it says public and includes the person's username
Change the post visibility to private
Make a junk post

Now it allows you to mute conversation

@hwll This isn't even specifically about mutual aid folks. It can be anyone for any reason. People shitposting about something you don't care about. People with a really popular political post that keeps getting boosted into your timeline but you don't want to see it. A meme you just hate for whatever reason. It doesn't matter. Your timeline is your own.

@CarbonCarrot It's more likely a Mastodon limitation. My HYPOTHESIS is that each conversation has a ID on it, which is how it decides on conversation threading and such. Your instance won't allow you to make any changes on other people's posts - for obvious reasons. The mute conversation feature may be working by setting a metadata tag on one of your posts where it suppresses anything with that particular conversation ID on it from appearing on your timeline. But it's still a crappy UI/UX for what should be basic functionality.

@JessTheUnstill *Thank you*! I've wanted this capability for a long time.

Now it allows you to mute conversation
jesstheunstill@infosec.exchange the inability to mute someone else's conversation seems to arbitrary. Maybe there's a technical reason behind it but there needn't be...

@JessTheUnstill I do something similar to this, instead I add a poll to remind me of the post in X days. I wonder if it work with a mute? 🤔

Is there some reason these steps cannot be automated, and exposed as a single control in the UI?

webhat@infosec.exchange oh my god, using a poll as a hack for snoozing is genius

@julian thank you, I don't think I came up with it originally

@julian @JessTheUnstill Muting/following conversation and sub-conversation (threads) is one of the things I miss from usenet.

@8r3n7 a 3rd party client could probably automate some sort of hidden meta-post, but no idea how fragile that might end up being. And yeah, Mastodon devs could build something to fix it, but I don't think it's on their roadmap anytime soon.

@julian @JessTheUnstill After a brief dive into the mastodon API documentation, it seems to be a protocol limitation indeed. You (or rather your client program) do not get to see the conversation ID until you join that conversation, so until then, you do not have the correct piece of information to request muting of that conversation.

https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/conversations/#getticho@mas.to hey, I sort of disagree. While the protocol itself doesn't contain topic level information, it can be inferred from context.
This is how NodeBB achieves it. It also sends contextual information so it's explicitly available as well.

@francina1909 posso consigliarti un piccolo investimento?
-
@ciccillo @GustavinoBevilacqua @elvecio ok pare che il problema sia proprio la versione 4.15 di cups.
qui maggiori dettagli:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/2133207come workaround possiamo andare a commentare le seguenti righe nel file cupsd.conf:
JobPrivateAccess default
JobPrivateValues default
SubscriptionPrivateAccess default
SubscriptionPrivateValues defaultsai come fare a commentare?
apri il file da terminale con il comando:
sudo nano /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
trovi le righe incriminate e le commenti inserendo un # all'inizio della riga
così:
# JobPrivateAccess default
# JobPrivateValues default
# SubscriptionPrivateAccess default
# SubscriptionPrivateValues defaultpoi una volta fatto, premi CTRL-X poi Y e poi Invio per salvare il file
così facendo torna a funzionare.

L'unica parte interessante della mostra comunque era il cartello all'ingresso.

@francina1909 confermo 😅

@muffa @GustavinoBevilacqua @elvecio
comunque esce questo:
Elencazione... Fatto
cups/jammy-updates,jammy-security,now 2.4.1op1-1ubuntu4.15 amd64 [installato]
cups/jammy 2.4.1op1-1ubuntu4 amd64

@elvecio @GustavinoBevilacqua @ciccillo guarda ho indagato un attimo e pare che la nuova versione di cups contenga una regressione ma sembra che abbiano già fixato e pushato il fix sui repository di ubuntu.
qui i link che ho visto:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2486147
https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-6844-2
volevo appunto che ciccilo verificasse con gli ultimi comandi che gli ho mandato se il suo sistema vedesse la versione fixata come disponibile per poi fargliela installare
EDIT: no aspè come non detto. questo problema è di un anno fa quindi il fix si riferisce a quel periodo. forse è successa la stessa cosa adesso.

@GustavinoBevilacqua @muffa @ciccillo male che va in avvio potrebbe provare a partire con la versione precedente del kernel ( mi pare che si può scegliere all'avvio o sto dicendo una cazzata?).
