lnxw48a1: Picking the right server isn't as important as it seems, because you will need accounts on multiple servers to see and communicate with all the people you want to connect with. Sometimes, it is because of simple #federation failures, but other times, it is because one or more servers participate in #blockwars / #fediblock.

lnxw48a1: #Bluesky's #AT_Protocol seems to be pretty complex. And its #federation may even be called "centralized by design", as it is designed to "[send] messages to a much smaller number of big aggregators, which then broadcast that data ... across the network." > On a technical level, prioritizing big-world indexing over small world networking has multiple benefits. It does ... if every node interacts with every other node on behalf of every one of its users. But if a PDS at pds.example.net mostly interacts with the fifty or so instances where its users have contacts while rarely to never interacting with 10,000 other instances, it doesn't need the BGS firehose, and it can integrate "app views" for its users directly into the same server. https://blueskyweb.xyz/blog/5-5-2023-federation-architecture [blueskyweb xyz] Also, even most US companies know to use ISO-style dates (YYYY-MM-DD) in URLs, not US style or European style.

lnxw48a1: Wow! I had forgotten about #Elgg. OpenUniverse and I had accounts on an Elgg instance in South America (time-wise, it was right after Mike's initial #Friendica instance closed, so we shifted existing conversations over) and got to see some of the posts about their #federation plans. Note: this may have even been before changing the name from #Friendika to Friendica.

lnxw48a1: To what @lxo posted, because vertical scaling ("bigger servers") has its limits, the big #corpocentric #socnets split things up and use technological workarounds to appear to be one big server. For example, one of the first things is to move the #database management system ( #dbms ) to a separate machine. Once this happens, hoizontally scaling the database by clustering (multiple servers handling the same db) is possible. Next, we can perform similar clustering with the web server, and we can perform similar clustering at the processing layers. Once we do this, we can expose things through various interfaces. This is what #cloud providers do with their separate compute, database, and storage services. Each such service relies on hundreds of servers pretending to be one. Finally, we come to #federation, where we skip the pretense that everything is one big server and instead have many separate individuals and organizations running servers. It isn't inherently more complicated, but it does mean users have to know that we're not all on big-centralized-server.com.

simsa04: @lnxw48a1 @fu If I may pitch in on on th etopic of "how the fediverse works"... Yes, you can explain it with the image of email and email providers. But you rely on "freedom" (whose?) to describe a structure that doesn't explain why newbies can and cannot subscribe to other people or otherwise interact with accounts and posts. A different way is stop putting "freedom" into the centre – which in itself is a rather problematic hierarchical approach as it invokes the imagery of landlords dealing with their rowdy tenants – and explain to people the basics of #federation, from which most of the peculiarities and problems of fediverse interactions arise. 2015 I wrote a piece for Twitter migrants to GNUsocial primarily from the angle of a layperson, explaining the various oddities by pointing to and explaining from federation as the root cause. Perhaps this snippet is of some help: !gnusocial !fnetworks #federation #fediverse https://gnusocial.net/attachment/cb9618538a9e5d8cfe3e78d2ca6b29734cefe631fa4e8b4bcc72ee7140b9e4a9/view

Back in late 2016 I'm glad the #Fediverse (comprising OStatus/ActivityPub-compatible social networks) and the #Federation (comprising Diaspora-compatible social networks) welcomed me when my #Facebook account was frozen and I was (and still am) too stubborn to give in to their demand to give me back access to it. I've been contributing to #Friendica ever since, mostly through dogfooding through my own single-user node. Happy Birthday to us and thank you to everyone who has contributed or still is contributing to this mind-boggling common project.

strypey: @wire perhaps I'm getting confused between #Signal, #Telegram, and #Wire. From what I remember, Moxie liberated the Signal client source before setting up #OWS, but resisted releasing the server source for some time, claiming there was no point. Just as he still claims there's no point replacing Google Play Services in mainstream Signal, or distributing the Android client in #FDroid, or supporting #federation between servers. Some people discussing this in 2016: https://whispersystems.riseup.narkive.com/LvP523Tg/signal-server-source-code @alexl

strypey: ... and in #GoodNews, #Wire not only confirms they're working on secure, federated chat, but #federation will be part of the #MLS protocol being standardized at the #IETF : "During this interim the proposal was made to include federation more strongly in the design considerations and the proposal was adopted as a future goal for MLS. Wire's goal has always been to achieve federation between different compatible backends and this brings us one step closer to that goal!" https://wire.com/en/blog/mls-meeting-summary/

strypey: Investment capital tries to make digital platforms achieve "scale" as a #biomimicry of cancer, making small things grow forever at exponential rates. If we're going to mimic anything in the natural world, it ought to be the fungal mycelium that connects to the roots of all the plants in a forest, and exchanges resources between them. A mutually beneficial network, loosely joining many small things, which becomes more than the sum of its parts. In other words, #federation.

strypey: @alexl see the 2-3 length discussions I've had here over the year about chat apps. TL;DR Wire is #copyleft #FreeCode on both client and server side, and has plans to support #federation between Wire servers. #Electron is a downside, but they are ok with community-created clients without Electron to connect to their server (unlike #Signal, don't know about #Telegram)

hoergen: (english/deutsch) Help wanted / Bitte um Hilfe (english) I try to create an overview of the features of the different federated platforms and which communication protocols they are capable of. Or add another platform (with sources) that can "speak" the communication protocol that is mentioned on the sheet. Once it's finished it will be available for everybody. github.com/hoergen/besser-der-… (deutsch) Ich versuche eine Übersicht von Featuren der verschiedenen föderierten Plattformen zund deren verfügbare Kommunikationsprotokolle zu erstellen. Oder fügt eine Plattform (mit Quellen) hinzu, die hier nicht aufgeführt ist, die die entsprechenden Kommunikationsprotokolle "spricht".

blacksam: What is a #Cuckpod? The precise criteria are somewhat murky, but it seems to involve hurting a Nazi's feelings. Various lame attempts have been made at creating a static list, but thanks to @[https://podupti.me](/people/5ec992ef88b6e211) we have proper software to do this. If you're a #cuckpodmin, or just wish you were, add your pod to the list so all of the edgelord shitheels in the Federation know to steer clear of your NPC ass. If you sign up in the next 30 days, George Soros will cover all of your hosting expenses for a year*! (* I mean, unless he already does -- which is pretty much a given, amirite?) https://cuckpods.online/ #cuckpods #diaspora #hubzilla #friendica #federation #podmins #poduptime
