@hpod16 I think being content on the Fediverse that people actually like to watch and enjoy would definitely give more people incentive to come and hang out here. That includes video content on Fedi-based video sharing platforms, such as PeerTube and Loops. There are people like us that support the Fediverse for what it stands for, but most "regular" people will join it out of sheer personal interest.
@hpod16 The Fediverse is still in its infancy stage. In order to grow it still needs our support. As its platforms become more mature, more people will join, hence creating a virtous circle. And more people joining will create a sense of community and belonging, which in itself will give even more people incentive to join.

@hpod16 I forgot, how could I!!!

DOES NOT sell YOUR DATA, TRACK or MONITOR YOU!And it's VERY unlikely that it will be taken over by fascists!
@BrennpunktUA @hpod16 Even if Mastodon itself does not sell, track or monitor - anyone could (since it's all out in the open as you stated before. No need for an account even.)
And I beg to differ about the likeliness of a take over by "fascists"/malicious actors. Not as in server take over, but in "join and spam" or "join and deceive"-runs, the operation financed by e.g. big tech
I think that WILL happen when Mastodon reaches a critical mass, and the @Mastodon developers need to be prepared.

Here's my first Mastodon post!
My mission out here? To understand and promote Mastodon, the only large European social media platform (to my knowledge).
How can we make more Europeans come to the Fediverse? -
@hpod16 It's easy. If European politicians start posting on fediverse first, X last or not at all, journalists will follow, and other people too.

@djoerd thank you!

@kallekn
Well, here's a start: @HennaVirkkunenThis is the account of the Executive Vice President of the European Commission, on the official EC instance.
More to come? we'll see...

How can we make more Europeans come to the Fediverse?likely the same way as during the last 30 years: If enough "big players" move to a new social network, their peer groups will also move.
Main problem for marketing in the Fediverse:
no amplifying algorithms
no ads you can buyAnd we like to talk and discuss a lot, and perhaps you can sell a thing you create, because people are interested, but "BUY MY SHINY PRODUCT" doesn't work well.

@SteveThompson good morning and thanks for the music!
Refreshing that YouTube embeds over here... I remember when Facebook used to do this.

@gagagoogle @Mastodon
But how? How can developers prepare for a fascist take-over?
Better mod services? Algorithms that don't polarise? What else? -

@hpod16 @HennaVirkkunen Yes, a very good start, even though the instance name is a bit clunky and bureaucratic.

I only just realised I haven't seen a single ad on here yet! How refreshing.I think Marketing is a problem. No big company behind Mastodon means no big marketing budget, means less people hear about the company.
I'm doing my bit, spreading by word of mouth.
Everytime I see someone complain that there is no European Social media in the comments sections of the EU accounts, I point them to the EC Mastodon. It's a start, but you need celebrities on board, really.

@milesizdead @nihkeys
I'm still discovering hashtags - trying to find a good balance between my professional and personal interests.
Video games aren't really my thing but I like #DnD and #TTRPGs and those seem pretty well represented -
@SteveThompson good morning and thanks for the music!

It is a much more positive experience here. Enjoy!

We're starting a movement in Denmark to spread the word and help more people find a place here. Our goal is to create collectively owned instances. We've started a couple of instances, made a web-page and are working on films in danish to promote the Fediverse.

@stefano_zan @filippodb @emanuelegori @attualita @thegib dunque l'immagine di Trump per mano al pinguino solitario significherebbe che i due stanno dirigendosi verso la loro fine in un inconscio impulso di autodistruzione. Corretto?

@fucinafibonacci @giochi sono di sinistra, e mi piace giovare a Crusader King II, come Civilization e compagnia. Questo articolo del post è fatto male, come se la colpa fosse di paradox o del gioco e non di quelle teste bacate che si radicalizzerebbero in ogni modo.
Poi non ci gioco da un po', ma mi pare di ricordare che puoi prendere il controllo anche di una casata islamica e difenderti dagli europei.
Sicuro si potevano fare unioni miste ed allearsi con i saraceni.

I'm after some advice from folk that use #Git . I have my own self hosted Git server and I have one repository that I'd like to empty of all content and history. I know I can just delete the remote repository and recreate it again starting a fresh. But would using git push --force <remote> <branch> not just do the same by overwriting the remote repository with the locals contents ? Or could I end up with files in the remote that are not in my local ???
I should also say that I am the only person that pushes to this remote repo too. Any help or advice is very much appreciated and thank you.
