@evan@prodromou.pub @evan@identi.ca ( and formerly @evan@e14n.com ) has said this a few times, but here it is again.
"Every time you post on Twitter, you produce value for the advertisers.
You tell everyone in your network there that it's OK to stay. That you're all helpless to leave.
You tell the people who've lost their jobs, the people who are being hounded and harassed, that they are not important to you.
You know you're going to be ashamed of it later.
Just stop posting.
Do it here, not there. Connect here, not there.
Don't reply, don't like, don't retweet.
Stop feeding your life into the machine."
This was true before Elon #Musk bought #Twitter, but I guess it wasn't as important before.
I don't fully agree, simply because there may be some advantages to many people who continue to use Twitter instead of moving to the #Fediverse (e.g., #GNU_Social, #Mastodon, #Pleroma, #Misskey, #PixelFed, #Lenny / #Lemmy, etc) or they would have moved over already.
Also, because unless one self-hosts one's own presence, an angry instance admin is all it takes to lose all posts and connections and have to start over. Or, if one has contacts on a different instance, then irate instance admins participating in #blockwars (including #fediblock) can separate the person from some portion of their contacts.
So remember, everything that Twitter is or can do to you, your Fediverse instance can also do. Most instances will never do most of those things, but pretending that one is safe here could result in disappointment in the future.

Some days I'm glad my instance of #GNUsocial doesn't support #ActivityPub and isolates me from the idiocy on Mastodon of which I already get plenty from #Birdsite.

@vegos I agree. To most organizations, their primary concern is reach. So they congregate on big #corpocentric #socnets, even when the central corporation running things is actively hostile to their point of view.
Then they're butthurt when their accounts are shadowbanned.
Years ago, I tried to persuade some local Black churches and ethic-focused organizations to join !GNUsocial and #Diaspora, but was unsuccessful. I think they all joined #Facebook, where their posts are hidden by the algorithms.

@sl @samir https://notabug.org/diogo/gnu-social/issues/160#issuecomment-19742
Well, there's this answer.
There are !gnusocial instances out there that have ActivityPub enabled, !loadaverage isn't one of them yet.
When confidence in the implementation not making a mess in the database is high enough, you'll know :-).

PostgreSQL support has been merged into !gnusocial nightly. Ta-dam!

> I miss GNU social sometimes
@tealturtle Technically, I don't miss !gnusocial ;-).
-
@1iceloops123 @mangeurdenuage MariaDB 10.2 broke it (the EmailRegistration plugin in particular), fixed now. Expect the fix in @diogo's upstream soon.
For !admins of !gnusocial: if on MariaDB 10.2 or later, update the confirm_address schema.

@grumpydeveloper@mastodon.technology !gnusocial is PHP

Every time I strike up a conversation with my #GNUsocial administrator people just say I'm talking to myself again...

Message to users of quitter.no. I've decided to close this site on it's 4th birthday, that is 5th September -18. I do not have the energy and capacity to host the site anymore. Please "migrate" or find a new GNU Social home. I've decided to not handover the maintenance or data to anyone else - so please do not ask to get the data to host this site further. Thank you all for using Quitter this period and for following it's users. - A. !quitterno #gnusocial #quitter

@skoll3 It's on GNU social nightly with all the current commits, up to date Devuan Ascii, PHP 7, with HTTP/2 support enabled even. What do you mean don't update it?
I didn't look into Pleroma much. Even if I were to move !loadaverage to Pleroma, I will first make sure that everything that is utilised on !gnusocial is also possible there.
So not completely impossible this is :-).

@hund T.ex. är !gnusocial och !fediverse en grupp för folk som vill diskutera #GNUsocial över instans-gränser utan att behöva prenumerera på varandra (en prenumerar på gruppen endast som vidarebefordrar meddelanden).

En Asamblea en el #Hacklab del Centro Social la Ingobernable ... se llegó al consenso de ir abandonando progresivamente con amor y cariño, de la mensajería instantánea Telegram, a la nuestra . Redes libres, autónomas y federadas. Como #GNUSocial ... Naturalmente . No podía ser de otro modo.
Así pues, como ya adelantó @fanta "habemus" fechas para que @colegota nos acompañe, en el taller de #XMPP en el #Ingoberlab #301 de #laIngobernable a últimos de Agosto?

@patrickme !GNUsocial is another piece of software entirely that has some features that #Mastodon lacks and vice versa.
-
@sen Resources don't really matter, what matters is longevity (backups, plan to keeo running the instance...) and preferrably good !GNUsocial experience as issues might arise that might need debugging and investigation. !fediverse
-
@hikerus Mastodon had in a previous version (probably still widely in use?) an antifeature that ended push-subscriptions with a slightly too trigger-happy assumption of when a remote server has disappeared.
While !GNUsocial happily continues several months after initial failures .)
-
@shnoulle 60 is the original default. Nothing should ever take more than 60 seconds to complete for a webserver that remote users can initiate requests for (i.e. link stuff that gets looked up by your !GNUsocial server). If it was up to me I'd set it to 30 seconds or something.
oEmbed etc, which in combination with StoreRemoteMedia does remote downloads, has an upper limit anyway on how large files to download (so 30 seconds should be reasonable unless your server is on a really slow connection).
-
I'm perfectly happy that #Mastodon exists, and if it implements #ActivityPub in a future version, more power to it. And if it drops #OStatus support, well, that's what forks (or reimplementations) like #Mastodon are for. But don't blame #GNUsocial developers for not following #Mastodon's road map for the future.
-
How well known is it amongst #Mastodon users that their privacy features don't really work outside of their own instance? Perhaps some admins know, but much of the flaming is coming from people angry that #GNUsocial doesn't follow the privacy conventions of #Mastodon. But being angry that the #GNUsocial developer(s) aren't creating the same illusion of privacy is really misdirected anger.
