ActivityPub and the Fediverse

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I want an instance where I can share my drawings, what is the problem? The instances whose main theme is drawing and illustration, its users like loli / shota.
You very much run into "the outcast problem" when you step outside of the mainstream. There's users who just want to have fun and say lukewarm naughty words once in a while, and then you have hardcore pedo psychopaths. We don't live in a world where punishment fits the crime, so they both end up in the same place.
 
Old article, but some (((journalist))) tranny was seething about how people don't pay enough attention to its pet causes on Fediverse.

Let's all laugh at this faggot.
>praises Mastodon for its refreshing lack of rabid political discourse
>claims Mastodon is apolitical
>complains about right-wing users creating their own instances (which they’re gonna defederate anyway)

You cannot fucking please these people, stg. You know you’re dealing with a special kind of exceptional when they say stuff like, “being queer is inherently political.”

That's because their problem isn't with "nazis" or whatever, it's with themselves and the fact that they're worthless freaks, and they know it.

FYI you can shoot this line of thinking down with one line of thought these days, because there are two conflicting pop lib talking points:

If everything is political, aren't science and vaccination political?

They honestly believe that. They're working to "decolonize" science, math, medicine and academia as a whole as we speak right now.
 
I don't care if trannies have their own area or safe space as long as they stick there.
Where have you been for the last decade?

You know damn well they like to stick their nose in places where it doesn't belong and fuck it up by infiltrating it from the inside.

They can never have JUST their own little corner of the internet, they want ALL of it.

This issue is trannies want to go everywhere women go and be treated literally exactly like women. A space just for trannies implies trannies aren't literally women and therefore they would view it as transphobic.
 
I remember reading someone complaining about how there's so much political content on non-Twitter, non-Facebook, non-Silicon-Valley platforms. Part of this is obviously that most of the people migrating to these platforms are going to be politically motivated, but I think part of it also might be the lack of attention from marketers that these platforms get. Would anybody even talk about Star Wars on Twitter if it wasn't for (((moderators))) and (((advertisers))) boosting those posts?

how does one even come to this conclusion? Getting away from politics on twitter is nigh impossible. That's all that gets boosted. All nonpolitical topics are polluted with with some kind of racial bullshit. Starting with The Great Chimpout, there aren't even any gimmick accounts that avoid it.

Right, but then you get on Gab and it's a whole other level. Everything's Patriot This and Patriot That.
 
On the most recent episode of MATI, Josh mentioned something called Post, comparing it to Gab and saying it was bigger and actually funny. He also mentioned something called "Graph" in relation to it. Does anybody know exactly what he was talking about? I'm pretty sure it was related to the fediverse somehow but I cannot find shit.

Poast is a fedi instance. Graf is the admin of Poast.

If you join kiwifarms.cc, you can interact with poast and it's users as well.

I figured I was spelling them wrong, thank you for the info.
Is there some kind of tutorial to the fediverse and mastodon or is it so self-explanitory that I wouldn't even need one?
I usually like to read up on stuff before I jump into them and I just received probably my 20th twitter ban this year so just giving up on that shithole and joining somewhere else is looking pretty appealing right about now.

Josh used to have a video but the channel content got nuked of course. I'll see if I can find it later.

Using it is fairly self explanatory. Just go to https://kiwifarms.cc/, make a username and a password. That's pretty much it.
People have mixed opinions on the default interface, which is called Pleroma. I really like it, but if you don't there's a few different options that you can choose from.

I tried to make a poast account but they only offer Soapbox and I really, really hate Soapbox.

From a user's perspective, you can get a list of everything that's being said "at home" by going to the "local" or "public" timeline
You can then either jump onto the 'known network' which I don't really recommend, or you can just poke around and jump into conversations, which will naturally get you talking to people on other instances. Talking to people from other instances, like poast, is exactly like talking to the ones on your home server.

On a technical level, it works like email. Everybody on @gmail.com is on the same "home server", but there's nothing stopping them from talking to anyone and everyone @yahoo.com or @hotmail.com. Unlike email, it's really fast and your messages are all public by default, much like twitter.

One big difference from Twitter that needs to be kept in mind is that the decentralized nature means that when one of your posts goes out to the network, it can be there forever. You can "delete" and "edit" your posts, but how a server interprets those commands is up to it; maybe it just ignores the command, or maybe it "unpublishes" a deleted post but still keeps a copy of it on the back end. So once you make a post it's out there forever. Keep this in mind before posting pictures of your penis and/or federal buildings you have a particular interest in.

you know that actually brings up a good question.

If you need to prove something in court, it's easy because twitter is "trusted". You just pull it out of their archives. With fedi, it would be trivial to create anything you wanted and put it on your server and just say "oh it got deleted from everywhere else". Wonder what the process on that would be.

Just another reason for the feds to hate decentralization I guess
