@timbray@hachyderm.io oh definitely, people are always the messiest part of the equation! but seems like a decent place to start building off, as it already has moderate adoption on fedi

@timbray@hachyderm.io thoughts on authorized fetch? ( docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/co ) It seems like it shares some commonalities with your proposed step one particularly when used in combination with disallow unauthenticated access ( docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/co )

Of course we still have a long way to go with building on top of that for your other suggestions re: federation & data handling contracts but

oh also does anyone know if 20 fenchurch still sets things on fire when its sunny

📟🐱 GlitchCat Sunday Post, 01 January 2023 

The GlitchCat offers news and updates from our corner of the fediverse to yours.

This update covers the past two weeks, since I didn’t bother with one last Sunday!!

§ Current Events :—

• It is Public Domain Day here in the United States, and there are some very cool things which are now unencumbered with copyright here!

§ From Our Users :—

@Lady continued work on her shrine-xslt static site generator, giving it rudimentary support for generating Atom feeds.

@Lady also published a playlist of her favourite songs released in 2022.

@aescling came out to her family and, semi‐relatedly, is in the process of moving, so be tolerant of any disruptions on the sysadminning side of things here.

§ Holidays and Observances :—

• 🍻 05 January is Twelfnight. In the Catholic tradition, this is the night before Epiphany, but in the English tradition, it is a night of partying to close out Yule. Great time to use up any partying leftovers from the holiday season!

• 👼 06 January is Twelfday, if you need a day for eating your king cake 🍰.

one-sided rivals to enemies to acquaintances to enemies to lovers

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
