request for dating sim recs
@twistylittlepassages my first instinct was https://copychaser.itch.io/speeddatingforghosts
speed dating so both reasonably fast to play and nothing smutty & offers a variety of gender options for the dates (including ‘unspecified’)
blanket cw for discussion of death and dying, but i never ran into anything graphic on the subject and by my memory its clear for the other standard triggers. searching the name turns up listings for ios mobile, steam, & Nintendo store as well as the linked itch listing
but maybe ghosts are too weird for a first try???
@timbray@hachyderm.io thoughts on authorized fetch? ( https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/config/#authorized_fetch ) It seems like it shares some commonalities with your proposed step one particularly when used in combination with disallow unauthenticated access ( https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/config/#disallow_unauthenticated_api_access )
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
@godtributes a plausible theory tbh

📟🐱 GlitchCat Sunday Post, 01 January 2023
The GlitchCat #SundayPost 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 🍰.

miko started year off right by trapping one of the humans for cuddles, attempting to steal a cookie, and then going right back to sleep
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

this may or may not just be an elaborate callout post to reykjavik specifically depending on how the results go
@lookitmychicken @laurenthemself not a norm per se, but technologically its harder to implement so i’m not expecting it to happen anytime soon
