i’m tryïng to remember why we joined the fediverse in the first place my best guess is really just the same kind of motivation that led us to use (s/)qmail instead of postfix; we just like smaller weirder things. also we were lonely as FUCK

been a little over three years since when i first created a mastodon account

there was a pretty bad CVE which thankfully had been fixed already in the version we’re currently running

Show thread

no changes that affect my use case but i’ll get around to it, ideally tonight

Show thread

i know something about federation doesn’t allow username changes that remote servers don’t see as a new account

Show thread

do i remember correctly that masto federation looks up accounts by acct instead of by the numerical id

yeah i could just use pinafore still but i want to actually use local only posts and such

Show thread

have i missed something, or can you not turn off the notification count on the bell in the little navigation menu in the masto front end

Now that federation appears to be working 🤞, be advised that I am the (public-facing) admin of this instance 😅

anyway i finally did the obvious feature where if i have headers for a particular domain and override headers for a particular resource, non-overriden headers from the domain are still used

k i just updated my webserver which happens to be redirecting webfinger (after Actual Proper Testing in a separated environment, for once), so, as the tech cat here, lmk if federation herefrom or -to is broken somehow

if i break things with my httpd that can temporarily break federation,,,,,,,,,
