Hi ! i'm trying to connect my firefish.social account to lemmy : jlai.lu. It's stuck in a never ending loop : "processing"
I searched some info about it without any success. Does Firefish support Lemmy ? Anyway, it works very well with Mastodon. Thank a lot for your help ! :)
Does anyone know why full text search is not working on #firefish. Search is returning only hashtags. Antenna feature picks up on all keywords so I know it's possible.
So I am a bit confused over this ability to search. While the search function in #Mastodon has been very limited I have just repeated the same search on #Friendica and #Firefish and got lots of results compared to the same search on Mastodon.
These results have not been from posts that I have liked, boosted or commented on.
Have Friendica and Firefish always had a better search functionality than Mastodon?
Do they respect the option to not be included in searches?
@Blaze@caos The federation between Firefish and Lemmy is problematic. According to a #Firefish admin, this is because Firefish requires "Authorised Fetch", which #Lemmy has not implemented correctly. Here from Friendica it works fine.
Please reply to this post with their username and give this post a boost. Looking for some cool people to follow. Any topic is fair game, let's see how much exposure we can create.
This is a comment I made on a thread on Lemmy. I thought I would share it here because it sums up a lot of the thoughts I have about twitter/x, and some of the leftist and liberal leaning content creators that remain. I am open to feedback and criticism though if you think I am missing something or being unfair.
I'm forgiving of artists because most of their customer base is there, and internationally, alt platforms are even more unknown. I am somewhat forgiving of journalists who want to reach the widest amount of people possible, despite the fact that Musk has been intentionally targeting and censoring journalists he doesn't like.
I really don't get a lot of leftist or liberal content creators though. Many constantly push the message that you vote with your wallet, and discourage patronizing businesses, services, or franchises that actively hate or harm marginalized people. Yet at the same time, they are using a platform owned by some who is literally trying to make the platform as hostile to marginalized people as possible. A lot of users have left twitter because they no longer feel safe using the platform. In fact, the reason you see a lot of queer people here on fediverse is because many of them are twitter refugees.
And yet many leftist and liberal creators remain on twitter, exclusively in fact. I could understand it if they pushed some content to alts to keep within reach of users that left while still maintaining their fanbase on twitter, but many of them won't even touch any of the alternatives, much less make themselves more reachable on youtube or other social platforms. By remaining on twitter, they are encouraging their userbase to remain as well, which creates engagement, which benefits ad companies who pay Musk, who funnels that into groups and causes that undermine their audience.
At this point, It is an integrity test for me. How large is this creator's following on twitter? How often does this person post and interact on twitter? and what have they said in the past about interacting with harmful brands? What's their excuse for remaining if any, and would they had accepted that excuse if the shoe was on the other foot?
I accept some people have an addiction, and as someone who tried to leave reddit many times, I know it can be a hard one to kick. But if your brand is built on integrity, standing up for the marginalized, and being ethical with your consumption habbits, remaining active on twitter is not a good look to me.
Just wanted to share some exciting news from @reiver!
We had initially planned to support #Kbin as the next software for #SpaceHost. And let me tell you, it's definitely something we're eager to roll out.
However, we've noticed a surge of enthusiasm surrounding #Firefish lately, with loads of folks asking about it. So, listening to popular demand, we've decided to make Firefish available next to those who are patiently waiting on SpaceHost's waiting list.
Stay tuned for more updates and get ready to dive into the amazing world of Firefish soon!
Sooo dann möchte ich den Interessierten mal den S3 Anbieter vorstellen, den ich entdeckt habe. Ich dachte bei dem Namen "Xaweho" erst an eine chinesische Firma, jedoch ist es ein deutsches Unternehmen mit Sitz in Xanten (das liegt bei Essen / Düsseldforf)
Die Vorteile sind fast schon einzigartig:
-keine Traffickosten egal welche Richtung
-nur 3,79€ pro TB im Monat
-so viele Buckets, User, ACL wie man möchte
-keine Bandbreitenlimitierung.
Damit ist das Angebot sogar noch besser als das von Contabo
Das Ganze wird sehr einfach erreicht: Man bekommt seine eigene MinIO Instanz auf deren Servern. Alles ist redundant angebunden.
Ein extrem faires Angebot und ich nutz es nun für meine Backups. Ich möchte noch Mastodon darauf umstellen. Interessant dürfte das für jeden größeren Instanzadmin sein, da ja auch Firefish, Lemmy und auch Misskey ein S3 Backend anbieten.

#akoma and a plethiora more of them… you can have all the features here, which are you missing on mastodon… but people love to complain about missing features than trying another software… #mastodonisnotthefediverse
Are there any #fediverse platforms that don't compress or others ruin image uploads? #mastodon reduces many images to under 2000 pixels in either direction, usually in the 1600-1800 range from what I've seen.
The flagship #Misskey instance is experiencing growing pains, but is also discouraging #Fediverse residents in #Europe (or rather the #EuropeanUnion 🇪🇺) from signing up due to #GDPR issues.
👉🏾 Misskey (https://misskey.io) signing up 20,000 new users per day
👉🏾 After consulting lawyers, Misskey.io will now discourage Europeans from signing up
👉🏾 #Firefish could fill in the vacuum in Europe
Wenn ich mit #Fedilab versuche zu einem procial.tchncs.de Account zu verbinden erhalte ich den Fehler: Fehler beim Laden der Client ID
Mit federation.network scheint das zu funktionieren. Beide laufen auf #Firefish Version 1.0.3.
Woran könnte das liegen? Vielleicht habt Ihr einen Tipp? @milan@apps
The #Firefish word #trademark is registered for NICE classes 9, 41, 42, i.e. computer software and services etc., for the whole of the European Union (and I believe for the UK too, not checked). Server admins in those jurisdictions, you may want to avoid domains containing the word or at least get legal advice before deploying a server with such a domain - this could potentially be costly otherwise.
I should add for completeness that the existing registrations do not exactly match the provision of social networking software and services and some relevant activities in classes 38 and 45 are not registered at all, but the existing protection is broad (in particular for class 9, but this may be more a risk for the project itself, not the individual server) and close enough to consider the legal risk - a specialist lawyer will be able to do so. #calckey#firefish#trademark
@atomicpoet@fediversenews before last fall, I didn't even know what really was the fediverse. Then I discovered #Mastodon and I've seen some time after that the difference between the network and the protocol which are based on so many platforms in this universe. Journalists have to look at far more than centralized networks and make an effort to understand what is the #fediverse.
@ericdano@atomicpoet@fediversenews what are the specs of your server ? I'm interested in having my own server (but with #Firefish instead of Mastodon).
Pixelfed is adding Groups, similar to communities, which will federate with Lemmy, Kbin, and Mastodon (lemmy.ca)

Like I get there are several reasons people remain. It just feels kinda weird to listen to a podcaster or youtuber go off on twittter, yet they still use twitter exclusively.
If you’ve heard that people have problems with the head of mastodon (gargron) this recent little incident might be an example. (github.com)
