fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @kirschner@mastodon.social (2026-08-27 18:06:39) I need the power of the #fediverse : For an upcoming presentation I am looking for examples many people will understand where the software caused consumer electronic devices not to work anymore.

E.g. company decided not to update the software which caused the device to stop, company disappeared and e.g. servers not available and therefore the device did not start anymore, etc.

Currently interested in some fresh examples I could use. Any pointers?

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @apps@toot.fedilab.app (2026-09-01 01:32:55) #FediHood now lets you sign up and log in with your #Mastodon account. It only uses the minimal API scope "read:accounts", and the token is immediately revoked. Your Mastodon identity is never shown nor federated.

Without an account, the app suggests a handle and you pick a city, no email and no password to manage. With an existing account, you can link your Mastodon account to it, and each Mastodon account can only be linked once.

I've been running a small hosting business since 2013 now and we have been offering unmanaged virtual private servers (VPS) for probably around the last 10 years or so.

I'm running an offer now where we've got some spare capacity on our infrastructure, they're all KVM servers so they aren't over-sold or over-capacity nodes. Due to the huge price hikes in IPv4 space the main cost for us right now is that IP space so all the offers are for larger VPS's, ideal for folks wanting to setup game servers or run larger sites / services on them (Also great for folks that want to run their own Fedi software ;) )

The offer page is here - https://clients.superior-networks.com/order/main/index/2026-special and I'm planning to run the offer either until the end of 2026 now or until we run out of capacity on the current infrastructure.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @pixelfed@mastodon.social (2026-08-29 18:53:31) We've shipped more commits in the past week than in the past year, and none of them are new features.

Bug fixes. Federation compatibility. Performance. Tests. Boring work that makes the new web UI and mobile apps possible.

Earlier Tonight: Pixelfed to GoToSocial account migration now works properly.

More bug + federation fixes on the way. 🚀

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @HolosSocial@mastodon.social (2026-08-30 05:50:41) I will investigate the issue with #HolosDiscover. Since another bot was launched on holm.community, I have been getting several complaints:

- NoIndex/nobot in bio not respected
- Locked accounts followed
- AP flag not honored

I contacted the maintainer to ask whether the code was changed. This should never happen. These complaints only started after that bot appeared.

I am taking this very seriously. If the problem is in my code, I will fix it immediately. Sorry about that.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @apps@toot.fedilab.app (2026-08-30 05:09:39) Concerning #Fedilab issues, I am currently working with Marco on those flagged as high priority. https://codeberg.org/tom79/Fedilab/issues?q=&type=all&sort=relevance&labels=2021215&state=open
I am still closely watching crash reports. The idea is not to work on new features while annoying bugs remain unfixed.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @Pixelix@mastodon.social (2026-08-30 03:51:48) We just released a new Pixelix update on GitHub. This one should fix some annoying issues and adds Editor's choice (Vernissage only)

- Add Editor's choice tabs (Posts, Accounts)
- Use full quality image on single post screen
- Add default timeline tab setting
- Bug fixes

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @pixelfed@pixelfed.social (2026-08-29 22:13:39) This is the new Pixelfed. Not a redesign, a rebuild.



The entire webUI from scratch: faster, more accessible, and properly responsive on mobile and desktop.
