how is 99% bluesky "also true" for 25% mastodon.social's share?
it's not "also true"
99 does equal 25
in fact, large parts of the fediverse suspend mastodon.social
please read and understand:
I don't particularly like AT proto, aside the bridge, i'm not there, I find it extremely difficult to understand it, for no relevant reason to me.
On the contrary, ActivityPub can be understood in 5 minutes from anyone willing to.What I mean is that, once someone prove to be able to fully self-host AT, it's up to people to do so.
It became open to decentralization.Your account is on the flagship mastodon instance, that 25% is also concerning, ok, less concerning but still concerning.
I guess also mastodon.social had 100% of share at the beginning
Last year they got 100%, I don't think they have still 99%, but let's see in one year from now.

@luca@sironi.tk @_elena@mastodon.social @benroyce@mastodon.social They have bluesky's mod service added to their appview. They can remove this at any time, and substitute it with their own.,

someone was suspended on bluesky and now aren't visible on blacksky
why do people comment without being aware of the facts

Ben, @irelephant (thank you for the name of the relay) is reporting public facts.
Given public facts, the reported story does not make sense, we're missing something, I won't be surprised if advanced #bluesky users, do config mistake, with all those lego pieces.
Fediverse is much easier, your instance, your moderation.
A small instance, you know the moderators.
A big instance, not your moderation -

A big instance, not your moderationso you talk of "facts," then you allude to actual facts above that you reject, then you topic change and wave your hands about "you can't moderate yourself on a large instance" as if that means anything
thank you for your "facts"

- an existing relay, used by thousands of people is a fact.
- it's also a fact that without having native accounts there, and a deep understanding
of a difficult protocol, and based on screenshots and our desires to be right, it's difficult to understand what probably went wrong for that user.
Maybe he misconfigured some blacksky software, or he found a bug, I have NOT denied the story, I just said, before going around with torches and pitchforks, that is *strange*.anyway, please, unfollow me.
You are way too aggressive on this topic (read ! scroll up ! understand !)
I mostly post stuff in italian, not necessarily related to holy wars, and you don't seem to be interested in understanding my points and my opinions anyway -

A big instance, not your moderation@luca @benroyce @irelephant @_elena Even if it's a config issue caused by the system being hideously complex we would still seem to end up at the conclusion that you need to be a million or billion dollar company with a team of full-time engineers to actually try to build a full alternative implementation of this "decentralized" system. Its governance can at best be an oligarchy. By design.
If they wanted it to actually be decentralized they'd be finding ways to help people fix these issues.

There is a lot of different implementations, like https://reddwarf.whey.party/ which runs entirely in browser (no appview or relay needed), https://github.com/alnkesq/AppViewLite, which is so lightweight I was able to run it on my phone, https://app.wafrn.net, which has activitypub and atproto support and blacksky, which has written the pds and relay software themselves.
I wouldn't say the system is hideously complex, moderation services are a pretty simple feature used by loads of people who don't know what a decentralisation is themselves. -

Not sure what reddwarf is, all I get is an error page (NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource) and I can't find any page explaining what it's supposed to be or what I'm supposed to be seeing.AppViewLite seems to only be implementing one single component, the appview.
Warfrn is also only a partial implementation. Says right in their docs that you'll need other components to use it with bluesky. No mention of where to get those though. I'd guess they expect you to rely on the centralized Bluesky ones.
And Blacksky is the one we were already discussing that allegedly doesn't understand how to actually implement the things they're trying to implement. Or maybe they do and the network just isn't actually decentralized. Those seem to be the two options.
Would any of these platforms survive if Bluesky decided to set up a firewall blocking them from the Bluesky infrastructure? Seems like the answer is no. That is not a decentralized system, that's an API.

That's weird. reddwarf lets you use bluesky directly through a pds, without an appview or relay.
Appviewlite can do everything bar being a PDS.
Wafrn implements the PDS and appview, they currently use blacksky's relay. -

So ultimately everything is still controlled by Bluesky. It is not decentralized; Bluesky is the singular center of all of it.

No, there's loads of alternate PDSes. (1200 right now).
My PDS is altq.net, but there's also bsky.global and bsky.aenead.net and the tangled pds.
Wafrn comes with it's own pds as well.
I can use my altq pds, and https://reddwarf.whey.party/ and use bluesky without Bluesky PBC being able to control anything.
It's important to note that Link (the guy who got banned) still has his account accessible on the blacksky pds, it's just hidden on the two clients.

I guess the most concerns, from people wanting to understand, are related to the AT pieces with fewer alternatives, like relays and appview.
Is this "link" user visible to users hosted on the main Bluesky, if they use a 3rd part client like deer.social ?
Is it visible to people on Blacksky or Wafrn ? -

I'm looking to migrate my account to another instance.
Can anyone recommend Mastodon instances with a focus on #healing or #shamanism or #spirituality ?
Failing that, somewhere where there are friendly #softwareengineers especially #Java?
Asking the #Fediverse so boosts would be appreciated!

A new bill that (indirectly) shows the inherent value of #Mastodon and the rest of the #Fediverse.

I just need to tell you folks... That I _LOVE_ #Mastodon and the #Fediverse.
I know it's not perfect. I know it needs to be better and it needs to provide _much_ better safety mechanisms for vulnerable folks.
But this platform, more than any other, give _us_ the opportunity to affect change in those areas for the better.
Donate to your instance owner/runner if you can. <3

somehow putting the name of a specific software on a domain name feels not right.
It's like having a web site called apache or nginx !

@adriananselmo sì questa è una vecchia faccenda che interessa un po' tutto il mondo open source da tipo sempre (le litigate che ho visto fare sulle distro linux e la gente con i forconi appena sentiva vagamente sussurrare le parole Apple o Microsoft :'D)
e sì sono cose che si vedono pure con il discorso app, proprio perché ne esistono a bizzeffe (anche un bene, certo) ma anche solo il concetto di istanze, dove iscriversi ecc

@Xabacadabra a caldo e da una che è arrivata l'altro ieri: uno dei problemi del Fediverso (Mastodon in particolare) è il classismo. Se non sposi la causa al 1000 per 100 capita spesso di essere trattatə da stupidə. Si dice tanto dei social commerciali, ma avere un'opinione diversa qui sopra genera quasi la stessa merda. Personalmente me ne frego, ma le persone hanno bisogno di leggerezza e vanno dove è facile stare. Anche solo capire che app usare per Mastodon per alcunə è complicato.
