POLL: SocialHub Scope and Purpose?
The current lack of grounded thinking about BLOCKING and control is such an ant-social process, when we start to think about groups and trust this can take us back to the more “native” #openweb path.SocialHub

This survey is part of a #research project led by @__nate__ and me and it is aimed at understanding the reasons that motivated people to using Mastodon, their expectations in doing so and their current experience using it.
Understanding Mastodon motivations expectation and experiences
This study enquires about the motivations, expectations and experiences of using Mastodon, which will lead to a research agenda.warwick.co1.qualtrics.com
This should make it easier to understand how every software project actually interoperates!

Home - Main timeline, shows all posts by accounts you follow, plus posts which include hashtags you follow
Local - Shows all public posts by all accounts on your server
Federated - Shows all public posts by all accounts that your server has noticed
On the official Mastodon app, Local is called "Community", click the magnifying glass 🔍 to see it.

"All that's really necessary [to make an opt-in search index] is to create an ActivityPub instance and have users follow a specific account in order to opt-in. It even simplifies the system's architecture, because indexable content will get sent straight to the index instance, with no spiders required."
While you say this has been talked about before, *I* hadn't seen it so clearly expressed, so thanks!

“I have been self-hosting my email since I got my first broadband connection at home in 1999 … But my emails are just not delivered anymore. I might as well not have an email server.
Email is now an oligopoly, a service gatekept by a few big companies which does not follow the principles of net neutrality … I lost. We lost. One cannot reliably deploy independent email servers.“

After self-hosting my email for twenty-three years I have thrown in the towel. The oligopoly has won.
Many companies have been trying to disrupt email by making it proprietary. So far, they have failed. Email keeps being an open protocol. Hurray? No hurray. Email is not distributed anymore. You just cannot create another first-class node of this necfenollosa.com
