    I'm against banning social media for under 16's. Just outright banning doesn't make something unavailable - just unregulated and not monitored. Alcohol and vapes are still common among under 16's - especial those that are vulnerable. I am for under 16's not being allowed on corporate socials though - as they are toxic places which do provably screw with brain development in youth - because of that algorithmic nature. I am considering pitching an idea to a local established non-profit that I sometimes work with, who run a number of local youth clubs across the region. It is an idea of setting up a fediverse instance for 11-15 year olds. An account can only be made in person alongside being a member of a youth club -with parent / guardian consent. It will not be federated to the general social web, and begin as a self-contained bubble - but with the idea of other regions creating the same thing and federating together. It would be moderated by the same volunteers / employees that run the youth clubs and social services - who are fully vetted, and follow the protocols - which already also includes moderating each other. Perhaps even somehow make it so the kids can't post on it during school hours, and after, perhaps, 10pm? There would of course be a set of standards expectations, or community codes of conduct, like here in the Fedi. Perhaps also running regular fun things too, that get kids thinking creatively (like what happens at the clubs anyway). There are of course many many issues with this idea, and I can't see it actually happening just like that. Not only is there unlikely the right fedi project to accommodate needs, but things like the online safety act potentially blocking the ability to create safe community based social networks for youth. And I'm sure there are many other issues as to why this idea might not work either. Like, what happens when someone turns 16? Are they just kicked off? However, I do know that corporate socials are bad - but not providing good safe alternatives when attempting to protect children, actually makes them more vulnerable and unsafe. We need a way to embrace them, not outcast them.#socialban #socialmedia #fediverse #activitypub #youthwork #onlinesafety

    There are two big features in release v3.1.3 of Ktistec: auto-approve followers and a new image viewer.Auto-approve followers is conceptually simple ("the server automatically sends an Accept activity when it receives a Follow activity") but it required extensive changes to some of the oldest code in the codebase: the inboxes and outboxes controllers. I refactored inbox and outbox side-effect processing into independent services, which made it possible to support side-effects like auto-approve follow (and also auto-follow back), without having to go through the controllers.A more significant change for me personally was replacing the lightGallery image gallery (an external dependency) with my own implementation. It's not as slick, and not as full of featuresโ€”I wrote it in two daysโ€”but it is fully free software, and that's important to me.AddedAdd admin page for managing OAuth access tokens.Add support for auto-approve followers. (fixes #26)Add support for auto-follow back.FixedPrevent triggering actor refresh when user is anonymous.ChangedReplace "lightgallery" dependency with custom image viewer.Set OAuth access token expiry to 30 days (previously expired after 24 hours).Refactor inbox and outbox processing into dedicated processor services.The OAuth changes set the groundwork for better support of the Mastodon API and the Fediverse clients that depend on it. Stay tuned!#ktistec #fediverse #activitypub #crystallang
