Hashtags are important in the #fediverse, for both following and muting, but people don't seem to be using them as much as they could, even the obvious ones. That's understandable. Remembering and typing them can get tedious.
So, a little #feditip : instead of typing #hashtags de novo each time, keep a running collection of ones you use in a document. That way, you can copy many hashtags, paste, and delete any irrelevant ones.
I keep mine in an email draft, grouped by category. #feditips
We're holding a breakout session with @fediversereport at #Fediforum today at 11:15am PDT in Breakout Room C! We'll be talking about the nature of producing news for the #fediverse, and the challenges that have come with our efforts.
Whew! Already at 2400 words written about Fediverse Moderation Tooling, and the potential future directions we can take. This is quite the undertaking!
Yes, most of my time over the past few weeks has been spent writing literature and proposals on moderation tooling, which honestly is an under-appreciated task essentially to improving the fediverse.
I'll also be doing up some slides with a summary of my thoughts for @fediforum.
(If someone wants to create a powerful document editing & collaboration tool for documents in rich text, by all means do, but until that works well, I'll continue using Google Docs, kthnxbye)
Huh, another way folks might be able to support my work on the Fediverse is through a nomination as a “GitHub Star”, which looks to be a potential program for getting additional backing: https://stars.github.com/nominate/
I've submitted the second to last #kbin#API PR for review! This PR adds thread and thread comment retrieval, creation, deletion, editing, voting, reporting, and moderation functionality to the API! The last PR will be very similar to this one, except for microblogs!
Didn't you have the API 'complete' like 2 months ago?
Yes, but it did not have any tests written to verify that it worked. These PRs have been resolving that issue so that there can be at least some guarantees that the API works when it gets onto kbin.social and others
(Also, please remember to buy @ernest a coffee if you are able, he's been burning the candle at both ends to support kbin.social and deal with personal business)
It's less than 24 hours to the start of #FediForum
In about an hour, we'll host a little pre-event "Meet and Greet" where attendees can casually stroll in, check out the venue (QiQo) and make sure their audio and video is working, so we can have a smooth start tomorrow.
Registration is still open, join us to discuss the most important and urgent, any many other topics in the #Fediverse? https://fediforum.org
Depressing that "more than half of americans plan to get latest covid booster" is good news, but it's better than last round. Hopefully utterly idiotic partisan divide is starting to wane.
Just get your shots. Yeah even republicans. I fucking hate you but your corpses are fucking up our medical systems, stop it.
