In case you missed it, Quote Posts are live on mastodon.social and mastodon.online — let us know what you think!

This feature has been a long time coming because we wanted to take the time to do it right. Part of that process was sharing our work and getting feedback along the way.

blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/02/…

in reply to Mastodon Engineering

We wanted to share a special thanks with the community members who were instrumental in the design of quote posts.

First, @mekkaokereke whose feedback and guidance helped us iterate on Quote Posts to make them safer and more inclusive. Thank you Mekka!

in reply to Mastodon Engineering

ok but why are they incompatible with literally every other qpost system on the fediverse
in reply to Pablo B.Y

it's on others they just won't advertise them because they're getting greedy with the mastodon name not being Seperate from the software.
in reply to Will Phoenix

they're the only instances where they can control whether or not it is available and they wanted a gradual rollout.
in reply to Pablo B.Y

Any feature we run is available to everyone on the code repository and via nightly releases.
in reply to DEVilonger 📟🎀

@devilonger @mekkaokereke because they use an actual ActivityPub standard with protections against abuse built in instead of the non-standard implementations from other software
in reply to François

@arsdeficiendi

"because they use an actual ActivityPub standard "

Well that is a total nonsense statement.

They created their own proprietary implementation of Quote Posts, which is not compatible with any other AP instance outside the Mastodon bubble.

in reply to Just a Unicorn

@theUnicorn @arsdeficiendi Nothing we do is proprietary. We published a FEP for the ActivityPub standard. There is nothing Mastodon-specific about it. Multiple other fediverse platforms already support our approach.


Ya está disponible la segunda parada de #TerritorioMóvil

Materialidad del teléfono: minerales, sensores, residuos.

Los teléfonos móviles parecen objetos ligeros e inofensivos pero en realidad condensan geografías enteras de #explotación, #despojo y #contaminación , cada dispositivo contiene minerales extraídos de territorios del Sur Global, con consecuencias devastadoras para ecosistemas, comunidades y derechos humanos.

L'hégémonie des #GAFAM reste persistante. #Mastodon survivra-t-il juste en vendant des #Plushtodon et des mugs? Quel avenir pour le protocole #ActivityPub et le #Fediverse? Comment faire renaître l'esprit originel d'#Internet? ☕ Bref quelques bonnes questions à se poser..

Tired of manually mounting drives in Linux?

Here’s how to automate it:

itsfoss.com/automount-drives-l…

in reply to It's FOSS

How to to that with a webdav drive on GNOME without the need to configure additional stuff/credentials besides the already connected web account like nextcloud?

Could not manage to do that yet and still work around by opening file manager and manually clicking on the drive.



fun fact number one: if you lose your internet and reconnect, outlook for web will appear to continue working, but will no longer receive incoming emails. this can be fixed by reloading the page

fun fact number two: outlook for web has a handy keyboard shortcut for replying to the email you're reading! it's ctrl+R.

wait a minute... these facts aren't fun at all 🙁

here's an actual fun fact to make up for this: this shortcut is probably bill gate's fault! or at least, that's what i'm choosing to believe, because it's funnier that way

in reply to Lynnesbian

thunderbird also has the same ctrl + r shortcut

every now and then, I press ctrl + r to try to mark an email as "read" rather than just "r"




YouTube to pay $24.5m to settle Trump lawsuit over Capitol riot


As part of Monday's settlement, YouTube will pay $22m to the Trust for the National Mall, a non-profit group that is aiming to raise $200m to build a new ballroom at the White House.

Another $2.5m will be paid to other organisations and individuals who joined Trump's lawsuit, including the American Conservative Union.

YouTube is the latest major platform to settle with the president.

My boy loves everything analogue photography so when we stumbled upon this photo booth we just couldn't help ourselves. There was even a live feed of the inside showing the developing process and the photo strip came out still dripping from the last rinse.

Final trailer for Zootopia 2! This is a bit of a spoilery trailer, but boy does it have a lot of pretty visuals. Part of the fun and challenge of making Zootopia movies is just the sheer amount of stuff that we cram into every frame. All rendered using Hyperion, of course.

I know Nextcloud's colour is blue, but in Germany someone you probably also despise uses the blue heart to spread hate. 😕
