Naturally I had less than 4 hours sleep...

Added SMTP this morning so people can get confirmation, password change, etc. emails

When we get to the add users point, I have to add them via Linux, which is easy but manual. For this reason, it is likely accounts on TurtleIs.land Bluesky will be available only to TurtleIsland.social Mastodon users until/if public signup functionality is built.

“Why did you choose Mastodon and not Bluesky?” This is my answer to that question. It begins with a law from the turn of the millennium that was initially described as a failure, takes a path through domain names I've owned for nearly three decades, a need to test the winds, and ultimately lands on the fact that right now, I prioritize “decentralized” over “decentralizable” as a matter of principle.

A suggestion on what would help with the Fosstodon situation

BlueSky's account tagging feature. I know that mastodon development occurs at a snail's pace but this is something which would, if it could happen, really solve the dillema of instances which both contain value and toxic elements. People could just tag someone as "pewdiepie fan" and I could just say to the followed tagger "I don't want to see posts from pewdiepie fans" and poof they're gone, as a bloc.

The example below is just a short part of a long list of granular tags you can filter your feed by, without having to block whole instances or even necessarily everything that comes from some user or another.

"Bluesky tem interrupção e as pessoas se perguntam por quê.

Bluesky teve uma interrupção maciça no outro dia, e as pessoas estão se perguntando como uma rede social "descentralizada" poderia cair assim?

Sabes como? Ainda não é descentralizado. A maioria dos usuários ainda está no servidor principal e foi isso que aconteceu.

Você não vê coisas assim acontecendo no Mastodon ou nos outros serviços do ActivityPub. Sabes porquê? Eles são todos descentralizados e se um servidor cai, os outros não.

Não é um conceito complexo.

Eu gosto de Bluesky. Eu gosto que haja pessoas que eu quero seguir lá. Há uma comunidade lá para mim. Mas também tenho uma comunidade ainda maior no Fediverso (Mastodon etc.).

O que me incomoda é que o Bluesky diz que é descentralizado quando não é.

Ainda não, pelo menos.

Quero dizer, ele pode ser descentralizado e isso o torna muito melhor do que o X/Twitter e os outros aplicativos da Web 2,0 que são centralizados e desligados. Mas ainda não é descentralizado - ainda não.

E até que possa ser facilmente descentralizado e, de fato, seja, teremos interrupções como essa e censura como estamos vendo com a Turquia e o Bluesky.
Pensamentos? Eu adoraria ouvir a sua opinião."

I'm about to block the bsky.brid.gy instance. Thou shall not one-way post and demand I register somewhere else to be able to interact with you.

We're just a few weeks away from the next Nerd Nite Tokyo on Friday, May 23!

We'll be talking about the psychology of detecting concealed crime knowledge. Then, we're investigating what makes social network Bluesky "billionaire-proof!"

大家好,#Fread 现在已经决定开源了,欢迎大家查看代码提交 PR。

Fread 经历了两年多的开发,从开始到现在一直免费使用,之前由于没考虑好到底是付费下载还是免费所以闭源,仓库里也有很多敏感数据一直没法开源,现在主要功能都开发的差不多了,也是时候开源出来了。

虽然这种项目大部分都是业务代码,但是 Fread 还是有些独特之处的,首先使用的是 Kotlin Multiplatform 和 Compose Multiplatform 做跨平台,目前向 Fread 这么复杂的产品使用这样技术栈的其实很少,并且这是比较新的技术,这点 Fread 有很多参考意义。另外 Fread 因为要兼容多个社交平台以及混合 Feeds,所以架构设计上下了点功夫,目前可以从架构上兼容这些短博客协议。

总之,虽然确实希望通过 Fread 赚钱,但我更希望自己开发了这么久的 App 有更多的人使用和喜欢。

Ok, built and running, the new TurtleIs.land Bluesky PDS.

It's in the experimental stage and at the lowest cpu/memory, but likely to go production soon.

If you are already on Bluesky, please follow me @yehuda.turtleis.land !!!

Many Mvto!

@Yehuda > Is the #Bluesky PDS open source?

Yeah: github.com/bluesky-social/pds

> Presumably you could modify it or build your PDS code to be more in control of what it does with the Relay?

Technically… yes?… But that would be kinda going against the protocol design imho.

The point here is that it is not clear what has happened. Like so much from #Bluesky we get snippets of information and are then left to fill in a coherent story by reading the tea leaves. It would be very easy to spell out what happened, but it is not forthcoming.
