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! -

@jansenspott @freuwesen hmmm. Ich dachte eigentlich WordPress würde dann auch alle Antworten darauf löschen 🤔
-
@freuwesen Eine Idee habe ich auch nicht, lese mal gespannt mit.
-
@freuwesen @pfefferle Ich verwende Wordpress nicht aber ich denke das Problem hätte ich auch mit jeder anderen Blogging Plattform … bin an den Antworten sehr interessiert!

Mal eine Frage an die, die das #activitypub Plugin schon länger verwenden und an @pfefferle
Wie geht ihr denn mit verwaisten Kommentarantworten um?
Die Kommentare aus dem Fediverse werden nach einer Weile manuell oder automatisch gelöscht und eure Antworten darauf stehen dann alleine da ohne Bezug. Das wirkt komisch.
Wirklich monitoren kann man das nicht, zumindest fällt mir dafür nichts ein.
Was macht ihr mit sowas?Beispiel: https://bunte-kuechenabenteuer.de/brie-cheese-pasta-3-portionen/

The Quiet app provides high-level technical details of how their app works:

This is actually very similar to one way I imagined a more server-less peer-based usage of ActivitiyPub working.

We're not currently doing anything around spam because it's not really a specification issue. There has been a few projects in this space, but when I've tested them they've left a lot to be desired. I can't remember specific names off top of head now though because it's been at least 6 months since I did that reaearch

@gabboman @admin @Eeveecraft @jb I'm suspicious of them, but considering that I'm effectively connect via cell phone, I have my doubts that even if VPNs are real, they're going to do much for me
-
the software has that as a safety measure on open instances because i dont want my software to be used for harrasment.
also reminder, VPNs are security snakeoil.
