@julian send your family to one and you go to the other!
New post: Can we have a more “social” media?
https://profpatsch.de/essays/a-more-social-media
On advertising, the Fediverse, and what a more human social web could look like.
Special mentions: @smallcircles, @phnt, @happy-programming
@Profpatsch You need to create a new signature because the request target is changing. It is a part of a signature base, so the initial signature becomes invalid when the client follows a redirect.
@Profpatsch @liaizon The guide recommends limiting the response size, to prevent DoS.
I also found this in your SECURITY.md:
@dusoft "You may use the Mastodon word mark in referential phrases such as "for", "for use with", or "compatible with"." https://joinmastodon.org/trademark
@dusoft but its not. thats not how Mastodon works. also its against their license so its actually not allowed
@dusoft "Mastodon instance to quickly create and deploy multiple bots (identities) that can be controlled via simple API." why are you calling it a Mastodon instance? its not Mastodon at all...
@smallcircles its called ruby text! Very intentional. It's a way of writing out the pronunciation of one script with another that's common with CJK languages but not really outside of those. Tho the html feature can be added to any language
@Profpatsch @Edent I see this is now merged, has it now been tested against how these new unicode actors will federate across to mastodon and other platforms that don't allow unicode usernames? cc @north
@madsenandersc Your are free to sign up at dev1.fedibook.dk or dev2.fedibook.dk but do understand that it is a playground and a peek into my dev system. Planning to deploy a demo env in the following week.
@sindum @madsenandersc sent a signup request, I would love to test out how federation is working rough edges and all
@liaizon @madsenandersc Your are in - Welcome and happy testing. Great to see you
