Heading off to sleep; will see everyone in the morning my time, at least.

Talking about the potential of organizations hosting their own social media. Yes, @changeling is correct in pointing out to me the fact that they can't be sure to be promoted, though at least the open source side of the world can enjoy both fediverse presence and promotion. After all, are there not a couple Linux orgs who have fedi presences? I could have sworn. Any clues? I know Ubuntu does, Ubos, others?

I'm going to laugh, if, when I finally get my lab network up, my future machine is the first to join that domain. #1010

Oh wow, first time in a pile of years since I'm on gentoo, I think a compiled wine that used to work sort of broke.

I wonder if it's because of like… removing dbus.

Anyways, @changeling, where the heck were we? Oh yeah. You asked about Pleroma? It's my secondary account, the one that uses my alternate alias/alterego, you could say. That's defendCambridge, on Twitter, if you follow it.

@clacke @craigmaloney Not at all. Syncthing is another one I can think of right off the top of my head. Think it's sort of like rsync.

@gatewave Wait? We can upload audio here natively? Or we'll be able to? Dang! Now that's awesome!

just the other day i remembered we couldn't upload audio here and wished we could, cuz sharing music's fun. glad it's finally comin!

Sort of asking for advice re: Dropbox replacements 

@craigmaloney OneDrive works, I think.

Then again, Micro.blog has a shitty interface for screen reader access. Sorry Manton, but it's true.

I need to be more active up here; It's always the battle for posting between here and Micro.blog, though, when I'm not on my own site. I only post directly on the if it's a mention to somebody.

@vantablack Sometimes rules just make things more complicated than they ought to be.

@blog@cambridgeport90.net Well, actually, that's odd. It appears it's working now. Interesting. I was able to see and boost my own post as a test. @jdormit@mastodon.technology

Just to let @jdormit@mastodon.technology know, I think the latest version of Pterotype is giving the opposite issue from what I had before; people can now follow @blog@cambridgeport90.net, however, there are no posts there according to Mastodon. I can't get back into Pleroma to check there, so not sure whether this is a Mastodon isolated issue.

like, seriously, packaging Pleroma and then enabling MRF on a whitelist basis is a complete deviation from the default experience and it is not acceptable to refer to such a packaging as Pleroma. so, please do not do this, even if you believe it is necessary.

that decision needs to be made by the Pleroma development community as a whole: if you want the defaults changed, including to a whitelist basis, please open a bug and we can discuss it. but don't just change it in your packaging.

we want to make sure that the default experience is consistent across all platforms where Pleroma is made available.
