I've tried multiple channels, and I never managed from other software, even though I could find the underlying individual videos that are part of the channels. Can you link an example?

Hello from my Kbin account!

I agree that this part of the article is not well developed, and I should have probably rewritten it. What I was trying to get at is that Flipboard has a hierarchy that is unique: The Actor owns a Group, with the Actor being the highest level, and the Magazine below it.

While you could probably map a Flipboard Magazine onto a ActivityPub Group similarly like a Kbin Magazine is a Group, the intended usecase is still quite different, even though they are both link-aggregators. I dont think this is an insurmountable problem per se, but I dont agree that Kbins Magazines are super similar to Flipboards Magazines. If you wanted an fediverse comparison, I think Flipboards Magazines are actually way closer to the Postmarks.

if anything, its gotten worse tbh. the upside is that the move account feature to mastodon works, was a bit concerned about that.

it doesnt block your old account after a move like mastodon does, so i still have a functional firefish account, just not my followers anymore

chris stating that hes hesitant to open his new (4 person) firefish server to other people until theyve tested more for stability makes me quite hesitant to recommend the platform for now, if stability issues are this deeply ingrained

So, what's the status on the update? (edit: ernest responded) in c/[email protected]

hey, thanks for letting me know. I think thats cloudflare, as its a pretty standard wordpress blog that I've not actively enabled settings to hide stuff behind captchas etc. Not really sure why it happens, but im taking a look

Only partial federation of hashtagged posts to Kbin microblog? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, the value is in pulling in posts with a hashtag that arent being followed yet. But it feels like that isnt really possible yet, and that someone from kbin.social has to follow the account?

Only partial federation of hashtagged posts to Kbin microblog? (kbin.social)
 

I've been looking for a usecase to see where the combination of Threads and Microblog was particularly useful, and with the news around the potential superconductor #LK99 I figured this would be an interesting test case. So I made a magazine on kbin.social for LK99, and added the hashtags to tags in settings.

But now only some tagged posts show up under microblog. So it does work, because otherwise 0 posts would appear. But if I search on mastodon.social for #LK99, I get way more posts, and only about a third of them show up on Kbin.

Its probably something to do with federation, but I'm not really sure where it goes wrong. Interestingly, even some posts that are made on mastodon.social that are correctly tagged do not show up on kbin, even though other posts from mastodon.social do. I even made sure to follow this account with my mastodon.social account to guarantee federation between the servers.

Anyone has an idea how this works? And if there is a way to force more of the posts to show up?

Dutch government officially launches Mastodon server in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Nordic Council of Ministers set up a Think Tank for digital strategy stuff last year, and they published their recommendations two months ago. They specifically advised all the Nordic governments to go all in on ActivityPub.

Dutch government has officially launched their Mastodon server (kbin.social)
 

The server is now live and in use at social.overheid.nl

The official announcement post by the State Secretary of Digitalisation: https://social.overheid.nl/@avhuffelen/110700825255524685

In the post she mentions that the government supports 'value-driven' alternatives to social media. In a letter to the house of representatives she describes Mastodon as a Digital Common Good, and that it fits in the larger strategy of the government of using 'open source, unless' (meaning theyll always use open source unless there is a clear explicit reason not to).

Mastodon server van overheid vandaag officieel gelanceerd! (social.overheid.nl)
 

Via Alexandra van Huffelen:

Vandaag lanceren wij onze overheidsserver op Mastodon.

In de brief die ik aan de Kamer heb gestuurd over 'Digitale gemeenschapsgoederen' op 22 juni, heb ik aangegeven dat ik twee waardengedreven alternatieven voor social media ondersteun.

Een van deze alternatieven is een 'eigen' Mastodon-server die door overheidsorganisaties gebruikt worden.

Hiermee zetten we weer een stap in onze Werkagenda Waardengedreven Digitaliseren.
