fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe (2026-08-21 03:48:24) it's a close race between poll expired and post edited for most uninteresting notification

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @Pixelix@mastodon.social (2026-08-21 03:24:43) We have just released a new update for Pixelix.

This update includes many bug fixes.
We also added the possibility to use custom theme colors.
For Vernissage we added the tabs cameras, lenses and films on the explore page.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @MastodonEngineering@mastodon.social (2026-08-21 01:33:13) We just released Mastodon 4.7.0!

This version contains very few user-facing changes, but significantly reworks the backend code to improve security and support new protocol features.

You can read more about it on our blog: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2026/08/mastodon-4.7/

Note for admins: the database migrations might take a long time, this is expected (see the release notes).

Release notes and upgrade instructions are available here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.7.0

The software is currently partially translated into many languages, but unfortunately, it is only 100% translated into English.

If you have language skills, you can help here: https://weblate.framasoft.org/projects/peertube/angular/

Thanks a lot! πŸ’–

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @Tuba@floss.social (2026-08-19 09:44:39) Huge thank you to the translators! Tuba has 985 strings which requires a significant amount of work to translate; https://translate.codeberg.org/engage/tuba/

The 0.11.0 release took longer than usual to make, some features required huge codebase rewrites and I also took a break from Tuba for a while. This year has been very, *very* rough.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @julian@fietkau.social (2026-08-20 06:22:10) Earlier today I attended the #ActivityPub Trust & Safety Taskforce meeting!

https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-trust-and-safety/blob/main/meetings/2026-08-19-interim-taskforce-meeting.md

It was my first time popping by, but I had a specific reason, namely a call to work on a specification for interaction controls based on various existing work. You may remember that I tried this before, earlier in the year, and it stalled due to a lack of time. So this time around I'm doing it during my work hours. Thanks @Lambo! πŸ˜‰

Here's how I'm trying to get started: https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-trust-and-safety/issues/159#issuecomment-5348012095

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @apps@toot.fedilab.app (2026-08-20 05:42:05) #FediHood supports custom emojis, but I think people should be able to import their own (limited to around 10) and only usable by them.
I will add another tab in the emoji picker to quickly find them. ---Attachments--- image: https://cdn.masto.host/tootfedilabapp/media_attachments/files/117/124/112/340/287/190/original/7e04449c56e59e90.png

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @apps@toot.fedilab.app (2026-08-20 05:09:46) The domain fedihood.social is flagged as dangerous by Bitdefender, which may be the reason why confirmation emails are being rejected as spam by some providers.
I registered the domain on August 7th, and this false positive is causing a lot of problems. #FediHood

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @atomicpoet@atomicpoet.org (2026-08-08 03:32:51) Because of @evan I discovered a great search engine for the #Fediverse.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @willi@social.tchncs.de (2026-08-19 17:12:50) Hey @loops and @peertube!

I'm thinking about creating my child accounts on #loops and/or #peerTube instead of doing that on YouTube or TikTok - of course. For creating content as well.

But what about child protection?
As far as I can see, there is none built-in at all, right!? Is this a thing even in the #fediverse? This important topic is getting more and more attention in the recent past - which is good - but what are you doing or planning about it? Is there something I missed?

Sincerely

If anyone else wants to tidy up their Mastodon lists before the new 5.0 version, which puts them more into focus, rolls out, I highly recommend https://federike.social.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @matttutt@mastodon.social (2026-08-19 19:32:59) Is there a good Fediverse friendly place to post about growing plants, trees, food etc?

A while ago I started an online avocado growing project (Using avocados to promote local climate resilience and to encourage people to start growing food locally) - and I've had requests to get trees/cuttings from all over the world... but I have so far failed to find the people who have established avocado trees who are willing to share cuttings.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @husky@stereophonic.space (2026-08-19 19:34:59) Hello, dear Husky users.

For almost a year, you haven't seen any updates on Husky. I owe you an apology for that.

In August 2025, I left my job as an Android developer because I was burnt out. I didn't do any programming for three months just to recover, and after finding a new job, I wasn't ready to get back to working on Android apps.

Recently, I settled into my new home, and my setup is almost ready for me to resume work on Husky. Eventually, new releases will come out, with fixes and new features.

I hope you can understand, and please be a little more patient.

Cheers,
@captainepoch

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @mayintoronto@beige.party (2026-08-17 23:38:55) When I send my friends funny posts from Mastodon, they don't click it because they think they need an account.

The walled gardens have done some massive damage to the foundations of how people interact with the internet.

You are on the #Fediverse! No haunting advertisements, no algorithm that keeps track of what you do, no collection of data on each click or tap πŸ«†

Just humans having a good time connecting the good 'ol way :fediverse:

No pressure πŸ’†
