hi!! i have questions for #matrix homeserver administrators!

i have a private homeserver for friends and members of a community i run. a good number of people don’t wanna join it because i have federation disabled, and their client of choice doesn’t support multiple logins

what consequences might there be to enabling federation in this case?

is there anything i should take into account to retain the privacy of my users and prevent unintended room joins from external users?

this is something i’ve put off researching for a good while, and i figured, well, maybe one of y’all kind, smart individuals might be able and willing to help a catgirl out~ <3

:PublicDomain: 🇨🇦 

Reminder that there will be no Public Domain day in Canada on January 1, 2023

And there won't be one again in Canada for the next 20 years

This is because Trudeau extended copyright in Canada by 20 years as a bargaining chip during the Nafta 2 negotiations

So fuck you, Trudeau, but for like, leftist reasons

Spent the past couple of days writing up a little guide to Mastodon on Dreamwidth. 😊naye.dreamwidth.org/2387980.ht

Turned out not so little, but see it as a reference/guide rather than an instruction manual that has to be followed. Click and find out works great over here!

@selfagency they haven’t actually released the service they proposed yet and at another point threatened to release it to everyone with zero safeguards

regardless, i maintain that the distinction between being indexed by generalized search engines and in-app fulltext search are is an important one when it comes to discussions of search

@selfagency point of clarification — most discussion of post indexing has to do with in app fulltext search, which is a service currently only some misskey instances offer. So in the context of the discussion, no its not really already happening

That checkbox refers to whether search engines like google / bing / etc will index your profile. If you’re concerned about privacy it may be worth checking anyway! but the risk profile of generalized search engines is basically a completely different conversation

@alpine_thistle individual size tartlets or per slice from a larger one or just a large one to take home?

GlitchCat Policy on Global Fulltext Search :do_boost:

By default, Mastodon only allows fulltext searching on posts that a user has interacted with.

Some instances have recently decided to remove that limitation. This document comprises our policy with respect to those instances.

And a reminder - please DO add image descriptions in your posts. They make Mastodon a better place for all, and especially for our moots with visual disabilities.

Image Descriptions are cool! :CoolTata:
