It's #PrisonBannedBooksWeek and we're inviting you to learn more about the oversized role that America's oversized prison system plays in censoring and restricting book access—particularly for low income folks, people of color, queers, and others with criminalized identities.

📕 If you're on Facebook or Instagram, follow our friends at Asheville Prison Books (@avlprisonbooks) and Tranzmission Prison Project (@tranzmissionprisonproject), who are bringing an abolitionist lens to their work on the front lines of prison book access all year long! (Hopefully they'll join Mastodon soon 🥺)

📙 Buy a book from our co-op's Asheville Prison Books wishlist at firestorm.coop/ashevilleprison… and an anonymous donor will match your purchase with funds for highly requested titles like legal dictionaries.

📗 Take action by demanding that Buncombe County Sheriff Quentin Miller drop a new rule prohibiting ALL used books at the detention center! Read the top post on @avlprisonbooks's Instagram page for details and a simple call-in script. instagram.com/p/DAGlicNsCeU/

📘 Check out the article a member of our team wrote for the Southern Independent Booksellers Alliance at sibaweb.com/blogpost/1157249/5… about the big impact indies can have when they support the prison book movement.

Hello everyone @Friendica Support !
I filed this issue on github and it has been pretty ignored. Of course I don't expect it to be taken into consideration, but I would like to know if I'm the only one who perceives this feature as a problem. I would also be curious to know if in your opinion the issue is easily solvable, or if it requires an unjustifiable effort?

For those who do not have a GitHub account, I report the text of the Issue here:

Good evening everyone.

Introduction

Like most software in the Fediverse, Friendica accounts can also be "followed" through their RSS feed.

In this way, it is possible to use the string https://INSTANCENAME/feed/USERNAME/

For example, the account of the Friendica group "School" is
poliverso.org/feed/scuola/

Is the feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Unfortunately, however, the feed of the Fediverse accounts publishes only the contents of that account and not, for example, those reshared.

This choice, although understandable for normal accounts, is much less understandable for Groups (the former Forums), since these groups do not publish (if not rarely) their own contents.

Describe the feature you'd like

The developers Lemmy have brilliantly solved the problem with their "Communities" (the Lemmy version of Activitypub groups) and today it is possible to follow the feed of the Lemmy communities through the string
https://ISTANZA/feeds/c/NOMEUTENTE.xml?sort=New

And in fact the feed of the "Fediverso" community is perfectly queryable by a feed reader
feddit.it/feeds/c/fediverso.xm…

Even Lemmy displays a feed that presents all the posts published in the local communities (https://ISTANZA/feeds/local.xml?sort=New) and even all those of the federated "timeline" (ISTANZA/feeds/all.xml?sort=New).

I therefore wonder if it is not possible to make it so that at least the "Group" type accounts can display a feed that also includes shared content.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I can't think of any valid alternatives.
I tried in vain to follow a Friendica Group with a Lemmy account (basically I signed up to the "group" which obviously in Lemmy is seen as a "Community"): basically I wanted to use Lemmy to make him export the RSS feed...
Unfortunately, however, there are still problems that do not allow the contents of Friendica to be correctly synchronized in the community view of Lemmy.

Feber 1.2.0¹ is out 👍 - A simple, self-hostable group calendar ... that is now also localized! (with german translations included in this release as first addition²)

What else is new: If you run feber on a server that does not fulfill the system requirements (which is rather unlikely 😀) you now get a dialog that tells you exactly what needs to be installed/updated/enabled, the anonymous editing/viewing/ical links now get generated with the correct protocol (http/https, dynamically) and some free text fields now have autocomplete deactivated where it didn't make any sense.

To check out #feber (documentation, downloads, demo, video guide, etc.) go to: simonrepp.com/feber/

¹ 1.2.1 too actually, because I found a tiny display bug while writing the release post 😀

² Call for contributions: If you want to help out by submitting further translations, this can be done with about 1 hour of effort (updated b/c I earlier underestimated this). Copy the highlighted lines here to your text editor - codeberg.org/simonrepp/feber/s… - translate the words/phrases/sentences that are on the right side of each line (after "=>") and send the outcome to me whichever way you prefer (DM, email, PR, ...). Don't worry about breaking anything if you're unfamiliar with coding, I'll happily do a check and cleanup of what you send me! ＼ʕ◕ᴥ◕＼ʔ
