Unfortunately Apple does not like the Sponsor section where we link to the GitHub Sponsors page in the "Help improve Pixelix" section. They declined the app update again :(
So we will remove this section on iOS and try our luck again.

With the #Stripe CEO also donating 1 million bucks to Eurofascist extraordinaire #DHH's foundation, our business will be moving away from Stripe, in favour of Mollie.
This was already planned, but now it's become imperative.
If you're on Stripe, consider switching to #EU based #Mollie:

Shared infrastructure is how the #Fediverse can grow without recreating enshittified platform silos.
We’re excited to share that Bonfire is working with Mastodon on two critical areas of Fediverse infrastructure: remote media storage and automated content detection.
Built around open Fediverse Auxiliary Service Provider (FASP) specifications, this work will help platforms connect to shared services instead of each having to build and operate the same capabilities alone.
Our aim is to make these capabilities open, interoperable, and available for any federated server to adopt.
A big thank you to @Mastodon@mastodon.social team for involving us in this work. We’re looking forward to building together and sharing what we learn along the way.

Interesting to see the fediverse and the Atmosphere starting to take up similar shape, as with FASPs, fediverse servers will be able to connect to shared infrastructure.

These tickets often tend to go to attendees from the Global South, or high-school or other students on a tight budget. If you are looking for such an almost-free ticket, we can't promise a schedule when they will be available, so check back regularly.

I've just published version 2.95 of #snac, the simple, minimalistic #ActivityPub instance server written in C. This is an important release, as it fixes an issue that can lead to denial of service attacks, so please update as soon as possible. It also includes the following changes:
Fixed a bug in the notification page that made snac hang forever while trying to read abnormally big files.
Improved support for text-only web browsers: it's now possible to configure a set of web browser user-agent strings that will receive simpler HTML in the private timeline web UI. Basically, it consists in avoiding details / summary HTML tags as much as possible.
Added some fixes to media proxy code.
Fixed EmojiReact code to allow any emoticon defined in emojis.json, not only those with colon-wrapped identifiers.
Fixed a bug in notification filtering (paging was sometimes incorrect).
Added a notification filter for Webmentions.
Mastodon API: Don't return reactions count as string (contributed by mkljczk), implemented GET /v1/media (contributed by clairemont).
Fixed bug in documentation examples (contributed by Sprite_tm).
Updated Ukrainian and Russian translations (contributed by wincentbalin and koru).

Listodon has been updated to #Mastodon v4.7.1
No issues, tho my routine notes have me doing a bundle install, yarn install --immutable, and RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails assets:precompile on every upgrade.
It seems that this simply required a bundle install this time...it seemed to work just fine, at least I see the updated version number when restarted.

#FediHood now supports #Lemmy through #ActivityPub. You can subscribe/unsubscribe from groups, read threaded discussions with their upvote scores, and reply or upvote yourself (through the fav button).
This is the first step: FediHood will also automatically split messages into city, region and country groups that everyone on the fediverse using groups will be able to interact with.

Oooh, neat -- @Bonfire has officially released its #Communities module: https://bonfirenetworks.org/posts/bonfire-for-communities/
I backed the project, and I'm overjoyed to see it coming to fruition. The world *desperately* needs a good open-source, open-network, open-community alternative to enshittified monstrosities like Facebook, and #Bonfire is the first one I've seen that appears to check pretty much all the boxes of "how to do it right". It's impressively complete.
(Might force me to get off my ass and stand up my own server, so I can start hosting some of the communities I'm involved with.)
And yes, yes, Discord -- I use it a lot, but it's still corporate, still likely to enshittify, and really only covers a fraction of the Community use cases. This looks better.
So check it out -- I think it's an important project, that a lot of groups could probably benefit from...

It has a new events calendar, better video integration, and a much nicer design. (At least we think so!)
And some information about the next, upcoming FediForum, October 6-7, online. Registration is open.
