VWestlife makes fun and clear videos about retro technology and other topics, you can follow his video account at:
➡️ @vwestlife_makertube
(Don't worry if the account looks blank to you, that just means no one from your server follows it yet. Follow the account and its videos will start gradually showing up on your server too.)

😱 “We will support the Deno runtime for another year with monthly releases containing bug fixes and security updates. After that year we will end our development of the Deno runtime. Deno will remain open source, and we welcome others who want to continue its development.” https://deno.com/blog/cloudflare

Three timeline functions in #Fedilab that some might not know:
1. Long-press on standard or list timelines for additional filters (for example, self-replies). (see image)
2. Long-press on a hashtag to follow or filter it.
3. Long-press on interaction buttons to interact using another account of yours (if you have only two, you will not be asked which account to use; quotes are not supported yet - see issue 121).

Hello folks!
We've just made a security bugfix release of #GoToSocial, v0.22.2 Shrubbiest Sloth!
https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases/tag/v0.22.2
We recommend everyone on v0.22.1 and lower who uses two-factor authentication (2FA) for their account to update to this release ASAP. We fixed a two-factor authentication (2FA) security bug whereby an attacker who already knows a victim's email address + password, ie., the first factor authentication, could bypass having to input a code from an authenticator app, ie., the second factor of authentication, and obtain an OAuth token for that account. This bug only affects 2FA, and again, only in cases where an attacker already knows their victim's email address + password.
Update instructions are in the release notes: it's a nice easy update if you're already on v0.22.x; and if you're already on main snapshots, just update to latest commits and you're good.
Thanks for reading <3

I found a clever and efficient way to handle translations offline, with 59 supported languages and built in language detection.
We also cache translated text using Tanstack Query, and use your device language to check only visible captions to see if we show the translation button.
The first time you press the button, we download a small translation model (30MB) and perform the translation, caching the model for future use.
Short text, mentions and links are ignored.

@cxxvii and @ferda both reported problems with #Pachli 3.9.0 that necessitated a new release while I'm travelling.
- A possible crash on startup
- List management wasn't working
Pachli 3.9.1 has been released with fixes for these. Thanks to both of them for reporting the issues.

Linux Magazine talked to us about how and why we build Bonfire.
What we want next is "not a bigger Bonfire, but a network of cooperatives covering the whole supply chain of a community's digital space", who "do it together" rather than leave you to "do it yourself".
Because "federation, we don't see it as just a technical thing. We see it as a social, economic, and political tool as well."

I have a need to know how many text posts, images, and videos this Mastodon server gets in a month, local and remote (separately).
Or, from anyone else who has such data, what that looks like such that I can extrapolate a likely volume of all three stratified by local vs remote per e.g 1,000 active. If anyone has some handy dandy data and/or queries to run, I'd be extremely grateful.

My brother showing me his social media on his phone, I see the nasty comments on public pages/spaces, and I'm in a shock. I'm glad I switched solely to Mastodon since a few months ago. Public comments here vastly lean towards being nice. The horrific corporate social media is just too toxic, I cannot imagine going back there.

Does anyone know of any Fedi software which *can* federate over TOR/I2P *and* the clearweb, for resilience in the face of internet crackdowns?

@apps I think you should work in the style that best suits you, there are a lot of advice givers, not as many creators and contributors. I've created a lot of quick apps just because I felt like it, and I've found as long as there was a particular reason or vision for that app, someone else would like it (even if a lot of people didn't, but that's life on the app stores). There are only a few that I kept dabbling for the long term, up to ten years, that seems to be my limit, fedicat is in year 3

We are making good progress on Desktop support for Pixelix. Today we were able to package the app as Flatpak.
Now we are making the app responsive so it also looks good on larger screens.
Once that is done we will publish Pixelix as Flatpak for Linux and as WebApp.

RE: https://w3c.social/@w3c/117393555521007349
Today the @w3c has published a new version of the SVG2 Candidate Recommendation.
* CR is at https://www.w3.org/TR/2026/CR-SVG2-20261006/
* Editor's draft (freshest version) https://w3c.github.io/svgwg/svg2-draft/
* Spec Issues https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/
The SVG Working Group is actively trying to remove the paper cuts and have something which is interoperable. There are many parts of the spec which are not fully tested in WPT. One step at a time, we are improving it.
If you see implementation bugs, issues with the spec, missing tests, do not hesitate to report them. It will help a lot.
