OSNews@osnews@mstdn.social (2026-07-15 07:31:44) The GDID really isn’t the only way Microsoft can track Windows users

In what should be a surprise to absolutely nobody, Microsoft assigns a persistent identifier to every Windows installation, tying it to its user, and the company has no issues handing it over to law enforcement. Abhijith M B at windows Latest dove into the details, and it's just as bad as you would

Has anyone got any recommendations for good self hosted status page software like Cachet that doesn't depend on being populated by automated monitoring data / similar. I just want a way to post the status myself and show an overview of the various services.

Profiles will display badges (admin/moderator of a relay).

The relay works differently from a centralised database on a server, but a moderated message will stop propagating, and other devices will automatically remove their copy.

Would one or two long-term users be interested in becoming moderators on holos.social?

PeerTube doesn't have an account transfer system yet, so you need to manually follow the new account even if you followed the old account.

(Don't worry if the account looks blank, that just means no one from your server follows it yet. If you follow, its videos will gradually start showing up on your server too.)

Michael Kratzenberg 📢@kratzen@berg.mobilecourant.org (2026-07-15 04:05:09) ICE agents are murdering people in the streets. Every agent must be held to trial for their crimes against humanity. ICE subsists on violence and terror against America, and its purpose is to strike fear into anyone who dares question why. Stop ICE terror. Stop spilling the blood of innocents.

FediForum@fediforum@mastodon.social (2026-07-15 02:14:39) Social media is in a crisis. The data is accumulating. Here is one: https://blog.incogni.com/digital-fatigue-and-burnout/

We need better forms of interacting online than what the big platforms give us. And group chat is certainly not the final answer.

Anybody working on this? Yes! And you can meet some of us at #FediForum!
