    #GoToSocial has been approved for NLnet NGI Zero Commons funding for 2026! That is, among a number of other cool projects you can check out here:https://nlnet.nl/news/2025/20251016-selection-NGI0CommonsFund.htmlThe blurb for what we'll be working on in 2026 is as follows:GoToSocial is an ActivityPub social network server, written in Go. It complements existing ActivityPub implementations by providing a lightweight, customizable entryway into decentralized social media hosting. GoToSocial places a high value on ease of deployment and maintenance; this means low system requirements, minimal external dependencies, and clear documentation. GoToSocial empowers self-hosting newcomers to deploy small, personalized instances, from which they connect to others across the Fediverse, using low-powered equipment lying around at home. In this project, the GoToSocial team adds new moderation and federation features to GoToSocial, bringing it towards a version 1.0 release (projected end 2026).Translated to something more concrete, that means we're going to be working on implementing: relay support, instance limits and mutes, old status cleanup, more easily configurable memory usage, tracking of unreachable instances, better search, and a bunch of performance improvements to keep GtS running well on lower-spec computers. And of course, fixing bugs, and likely implementing a few other cheeky features between the soup and the potatoes (kim is interested in looking at quote posts, for example, and tobi will likely do some silly things like the recent ListenBrainz integration).If things turn out favorably, this chunk of work will bring us towards calling a proper v1.0.0 release by the end of 2026. Ie., we'll finally be able to say "it's good enough to recommend to people".Thanks for reading! 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

    Hello #Fediverse and Happy New Year!I'd like to mark the start of 2025 with the first message from my self-hosted instance. You may already know me as @_elena@mastodon.social. Well, now I also run my own #ActivityPub microblogging server, thanks to the magic of #YunoHost and #GoToSocial (and #Phanpy, which I'm using to compose this).I registered this domain – aseachange.com – a looooong time ago but never did anything with it. It was the very first domain name I ever bought, even before securing elenarossini.com (!!!). It was so long ago, but I remember I was inspired by Beck's album Sea Change. seachange[dot]com was taken, so I grabbed Aseachange.I absolutely love its meaning of profound transformation and I think it's PERFECT for my self-hosted #Fediverse instance and what it represents: independence, empowerment and digital sovereignty.Ever since setting it up, I've been feeling joyful and hopeful. Everytime I look at myself in the mirror, I think: I'm in control of my own social media platform. And it feels SOOO GOOD.What do I have in store for 2025? I plan to use this account to post messages about #selfhosting, learning #Linux, privacy and digital sovereignty.I will also keep posting from my Mastodon account because you don't give a Lamborghini to someone who just passed their driver's license. I barely know what I'm doing here, so I feel a lot safer (for now) keeping my mastodon.social account as well... In case anything goes wrong here. Better safe than sorry!So, this is my #Introduction and if you've read as far as here I just want to thank the Fediverse for being so amazing and allowing me to connect with people on my own terms. And thank you Fedi people for being so generous and supportive with your superb advice and kind words.This is a really magical, special place.Happy New Year, everyone!
