It looks like the official Mastodon app has been updated to use the terminology of the experimental web interface. ⭐️ Favourites are now called ❤️ Likes. Trending is now called Explore (which is what it was called originally 😄 ). This hasn't been rolled out to the release version of the web interface yet, so you probably won't see these changes on your server's website yet. #FediTips #Mastodon

Hi! I think I've managed to migrate everything to my new personal Mastodon instance! 🐘 It's interesting to discover that digital sovereignty doesn't have to come at a cost. With a free #Oracle Cloud #VPS, it's possible to host several services, including #mastodon at no charge. After yesterday's experience, when many of us lost access to services due to our dependence on #microsoft the importance of embracing digital autonomy and freedom has become even clearer. Let's see how it goes...

Het is wel een technisch blik wormen dit zeg. Wat ik nu heb geleerd om relays te begrijpen: de vindbaarheid en zichtbaarheid op Mastodon zijn nogal suboptimaal, vinden veel gebruikers, waaronder ik. Als je profiel voor het eerst aanklikt zie je bijvoorbeeld een hele rare selectie van posts vanaf dat profiel. Dus niet alle posts, maar bijvoorbeeld alleen de 'gepinde' posts en de posts die een relatie hebben met mensen die je al volgt en die zij geboost hebben, of waarop ze reageerden. Dat voelt onnodig onoverzichtelijk. "Dit is een groot pijnpunt van het netwerk," zegt @ShadowJonathan@tech.lgbt, die ik er net over sprak. "Een relay is bedoelt als een tussenoplossing." Hen vergelijkt het met een 'telefoontoren'. "Een relay is een soort telefoontoren die je neerzet. Als je ermee verbindt dan kun je luisteren naar alle andere servers die eraan zijn verbonden.” #ActivityPub #Relay #Feditorial #Mastodon #Fediverse

There are several different timelines on Mastodon: Home, Local, Federated and Trending. Here's a guide to all of them, including lots of questions answered about them: ➡️ https://fedi.tips/what-are-the-local-federated-home-timelines-how-do-i-stop-them-scrolling-too-quickly If you have a question not covered by the guide, ask in the replies 🙂 #FediTips #Mastodon

Poke @joergi@chaos.social Just making sure in dry-run that everything works as intended before actually enabling purge. #Mastodon API has surprising behaviors... I will work to add #Pixelfed, not sure if the API is as rich as Mastodon when it comes to admin and curated onboarding though...

Catodon posts with more than 4 attachments will now include a link to the post in the Catodon server, when viewed in Mastodon, so that Mastodon users can see all of the attachments.. I never understood why Mastodon has a limit of 4 attachments per post. Then again, the decision to also only allow 4 options in polls is even more of a mystery to me... #catodon #mastodon

We used @mastometrics@mas.to to find the most shared posts since the #LeaveX campaign began! We'll keep raising awareness of disinformation and advocating for healthier communication infrastructure for political dialogue. Mastodon and the Fediverse offer an alternative. We need to convince political leaders that democratic discourse deserves spaces free from engagement-driven algorithms that amplify hate, outrage and polarization. The top 10! 1/4 #Democracy #Disinformation #Fediverse #Mastodon

🐦‍⬛ Mastodon Bird UI 5.0.0-beta.1-2026-11-08 (nightly) is out. This is Bird UI rebuilt for Mastodon 5, the new 5.0 design that is now in beta.

The nightly follows Mastodon 5.0.0-beta.1. If you are on Mastodon 4, stay on 4.7.3-2026-10-11 from the main branch.

New:

  • Rewritten from scratch for the Mastodon 5 design
  • Micro-interactions, likes and boosts are whimsical
  • Notifications, content warnings, link cards and thread lines look like they did on Mastodon 4
  • Follows Mastodon's own light, dark and high contrast settings
  • A darker, blurred backdrop behind the composer and every popup
  • A new install script for Mastodon 5, or paste dist/mastodon-bird-ui.css into Custom CSS
  • The star favorite, light and language variants are no longer supported

You can see it live at https://mementomori.social

Lots of nightly updates coming in today!

Most notable bugs:

  • When you type a hashtag or at-person, the popout gets in the way
  • Ultra Accessible themes for vision impaired have some font size issues
  • Some hover states and element proportions, especially padding, have regressions from v5 and the new nightly theme
  • Bugs in the advanced view

The latest changes are in the nightly branch, and work is still in progress. You can follow my work here: https://github.com/rollecode/mastodon-bird-ui/tree/nightly

Some of these are core issues and will probably be fixed or changed in Mastodon v5 stable. If not, fixes will go live in our fork.

Okay, this is perhaps very nerdy, but it might interest you if you've wondered how Mastodon servers notice accounts and posts from other servers. I've tried to do a list of all the scenarios where accounts and posts are noticed by your server: ➡️ https://fedi.tips/which-posts-and-accounts-can-i-see-from-my-server The guide also answers questions about why it works like this, and why it doesn't just show all posts from all servers. #FediTips #Mastodon

Interessant @sander@waag.social Ik ben benieuwd naar de gezamenlijke infrastructuurprojecten. Zijn die erop gericht de twee protocollen gemakkelijker gecombineerd te gebruiken? Eén groot open social web? https://waag.org/nl/article/europeansocial-gelanceerd-berlijn-de-beweging-voor-het-europese-sociale-web/ "De komende tijd richt de vereniging zich op gezamenlijke infrastructuurprojecten en het vergroten van de steun voor open sociale initiatieven in Europa. De eerste jaarlijkse bijeenkomst vindt plaats in juni 2027, tijdens de PublicSpaces-conferentie in Amsterdam. Ook gaan de oprichters aan de slag met een bestuursstructuur die samenwerking tussen alle deelnemers stimuleert en mogelijk maakt." @publicspaces@social.publicspaces.net#ActivityPub #ATProto #Mastodon

RE: https://mastodon.social/@pixelfed/117586194168536723 Mastodon Canada just committed to the Digital Platform of Rights and Freedoms with the following: "Mastodon Canada recognizes the importance of Data Sovereignty and, with this hosting, keeps our community's data on servers in Edmonton, Alberta, that we can physically touch. We are committed to the Mastodon Covenant and provide safeguards that respect the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We are transparent with moderation and administration decisions and remain responsive to cybersecurity events. We are steadfast in our commitment to working with Project Arachnid in combating CSAM on the fediverse. Our team actively seeks out equity-seeking members to join our moderation and oversight team and looks forward to continuing to build upon this."
