Yeah, I know 😦

But the server itself is nothing to do with AI, and it seems to be well run so thought it was worth mentioning.

p.s. This came to mind due to the supergiant mastodon.social which is sucking up all the active members at an unprecedented rate.

Even servers considered large now only have a tiny fraction of the active members of mastodon.social. It's getting really dangerous for decentralisation.

Hello people interested in a decentralised Fediverse, would like some feedback on something 🙏

At the moment, Fedi.Garden only lists Fediverse servers with fewer than 50,000 registered members. I am wondering if this limit should be replaced by a limit based on active members rather than registered members?

If a server has had a lot of signups in the past but not many active now, it is perhaps unfairly shut out of Fedi.Garden even though it now needs help getting noticed?

Any thoughts?

Mastodon's new server software (v4.5.0) brings a breakthrough for smaller servers:

No matter which server you are on, all replies to all discussion threads are automatically fetched as soon as you browse a discussion. It doesn't matter which server you are on or which server they are on, you will all see the same complete discussion. (Unless a user or server is banned of course.)

If you've previously held back, this is a great time to try smaller servers! 🥳

TBH think Meta need to be shut down, Meta knew in 2016 people would die and didn't care:

“We connect people. Period. That’s why all the work we do in growth is justified. All of it.”
"Maybe it costs someone a life by exposing (them) to bullies. Maybe someone dies in a terrorist attack coordinated on our tools.”
"The ugly truth is that we believe in connecting people so deeply that anything that allows us to connect more people more often is de facto good."

All servers listed by Fedi.Garden have defederated Meta's #Threads.

You might think "Why not let users choose what they see? Users can block stuff they don't like."

The trouble is, you can't block real life effects of hateful lies spread online. Disinformation about vulnerable groups causes discrimination, threats, violence, and mass murder:

Meta is getting worse:

#Meta (including Threads) needs to be defederated.
