fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @evan@cosocial.ca (2026-05-26 07:38:46) It's interesting reading the nodeinfo for #tagspub. We've seen ~320,000 hashtags over the last 3 month. Of those, 182,000 have been used in the last 30 days. The rest? I don't know. Honestly, it seems like an awful lot of hashtags! #serverstats

It's so nice to hear good music being made out of passion rather than for the usual money/fame hamster wheel.

Also, the playlists across the channels are really great.

Thanks to @mizkirsten for making this happen!

Don't worry if the account looks blank, that just means no one from your server has followed it yet. Follow the account and its videos will start gradually showing up on your server too.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @jerry@infosec.exchange (2026-05-23 22:23:05) If you run a peertube instance and have not patched in the past 4 hours, you are way behind and likely have been compromised. The latest patch will help clean up the mess.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @Lori_Noctis@mastodon.social (2026-05-12 23:27:14) Okay, I think I underestimated Mastodon.

I joined a few hours ago, posted a little #introduction, mentioned Linux, handwritten HTML, blogging, and missing the old internet…

…and apparently that was enough for the Fediverse to collectively adopt me like a stray HTML goblin.

My notifications are chaos.
People are kind.
Nerds are everywhere.

I may have finally found my corner of the internet. 😄

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @mgfp@mstdn.social (2026-05-25 05:25:29) The Fediverse is so cool. The interoperability of ActivityPub rewards you from browsing other instances, creating server-side and personal connections differently from how we were taught to browse the social web.
At the moment I'm trying to figure out the most optimal way share content around the Fediverse, from Peertube to Mastodon in particular. How it works is kind of weird.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @stefan@stefanbohacek.online (2026-05-25 06:41:20) Ah, yes, I guess I just forgot.

"NPR doesn’t currently [in 2023] display preview cards from Mastodon instance. Why? Because the requests coming from the preview card generation service sends a user-agent string that is not allowed by the NPR servers. "

Thank you @box464 for putting this together!

Maybe now that Mastodon handles this better, it might be worth reaching out to them.

fedicat@fedicat@pc.cafe boosted: @mastoblaster@mastoblaster.app (2026-05-24 15:35:52) MastoBlaster build 95 is out, and I am getting close to declaring it stable.
The biggest update in this build is making the Home tab behavior completely explicit. Under the hood, I changed the tab dispatch in MastoBlasterApp.swift, added the Home tab notifications in NotificationDelegate.swift, and moved the actual scroll/refresh behavior into TimelineView.swift so the timeline state stays coherent.

Here is exactly how it works now:
Tap Home from another tab: Switches back to the Home tab.Tap Home while already there: Scrolls the current timeline to the newest posts.Tap Home again while already at the top: Refreshes the timeline (with a 1.5-second cooldown to prevent accidental spamming).Long-press Home: Opens the timeline picker.Other changes and fixes included in build 95:
Added a setting to completely disable Apple Intelligence.Redesigned the notification view to be larger and make much better use of screen space.Fixed the compose window layout for small devices like the iPhone mini.Profile and banner images can now be tapped to enlarge.Added support to approve or deny follower requests.Added per-instance and per-account connection timeouts.Added a visible Back button to the settings sheet.Updated the filtered notice UI: it now shows "Filtered Post ()" directly in the header and removes the separate "Matched:" line.Test it out and let me know if everything holds up.
