@webmind Hmm, don't know really. What should those more descriptive names be? 🤔 If you have ideas on how to make them better, don't hesitate to open an issue: https://github.com/thefederationinfo/the-federation.info/issues Or a pull request 😉

@webmind The stats are not perfect, there're issues. These are the only stats that include both AP networks and diaspora though. "Monthly user" = number of users active last month. Total number of registered users is not the best metrics, as some people register, login once and then never show up again.

you've heard of #hubzilla but always find it to complicated?

here's a great howto, made by the @disroot community :

🐘 Periodic #mastoworld overview

Ecology/animals:
• https://onerescue.org - for animal lovers, and dedicated to helping rescue animals in need

Hobbies:
• https://talesofterror.eu - for fans of horror literature

Sciences:
• https://qoto.org - for scholars in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)

@webmind I think this should be a feature. Why not? Ephemeral.glitch.social are already doing it. Some people like me don't put much value into toots except quick exchange of opinions that matters right now, and not 5 years from now. Hubzilla already has a feature of expiring posts and mail. I'd prefer it to be an optional core feature, rather than deleting manually or relying on some third party solutions.

@iday Thank you for the work you're doing! And for the"official instance" guide. May I suggest changing step 4? It's somewhat sad to see new accounts set a Twitter crosspost bot and think that's the best option. Could we perhaps promote another one? Post from Mastodon to Twitter? https://github.com/renatolond/mastodon-twitter-poster#features What's the difference? Same content reaches all people, but without unavoidable "t.co" links. Profit!

@cwcopa From some diaspora pods, latest bitcoin tagged post will be 21 hours ago, several posts each day. That's the curse/blessing of federated networks. Not all tagged posts federate to every server. It depends on a) how well server is connected, b) whether it has relay enabled. To feel the real power of diaspora one needs to connect with people. Many users make limited posts that will never federate unless you're in their aspect. Trust me, undercover diaspora is very alive 😎

@cwcopa Looking at pods uptime, months open, user number could help make a choice: https://podupti.me/?detailedview

https://nerdpol.ch and https://diaspora.town should be stable. If you easily connect with people and plan to follow many tags (to make your timeline full), you could choose a smaller pod like diasporapod.no, to support better decentralization

Did you know CCC new official account is here: @CCC ? Of course, you did. Now I know too. Also on diaspora: https://diasp.org/u/chaosupdates

@nipos Thank you! I was asking mostly from the point of view of a new user who comes to pleroma.social for information. It could be useful to have a link to Mastodon apps on Pleroma website with a comment that they all work for Pleroma :) I'll use that list as reference for now. Hope, Brutaldon will soon be added there as well

@lain I see, so it's safe to link to Mastodon clients then. Thanks.

@lain Hi! Is there somewhere a list of avaliable clients for Pleroma? Something like this: https://github.com/tootsuite/documentation/blob/master/Using-Mastodon/Apps.md or this https://gitlab.com/distributopia/gnusocial-clients ?

It would probably be useful to add such a list to pleroma.social. Would someone from #Pleroma team like to create one? I can also do it, however would be best if someone actively using Pleroma maintains it :)

@balancer Quite possibly ;) Although, I think it's a new node with 1 user, so it hasn't found its orc-users yet.

#Friendica has a themed instance

https://mordor.social \o/

Couldn't resist: https://gitlab.com/distributopia/friendica-world-overview

Please, more personalized servers. It's just some friendly description, personalized background. But for users it may mean more than that. It’s the #community they choose.
