@ana@starlite.rodeo this is really well put

tobi is writing bugs 
@dumpsterqueer@gts.superseriousbusiness.org
Queer, trans, dev, etc etc.
This my SuperSeriousBusiness account, where I post about 
GoToSocial development etc, rant about crap sometimes, and occasionally test things.
Some additional stuff:
- I'm not "the GoToSocial developer", I'm one of several GoToSocial developers.
- This is not a support account, don't ask me GtS support questions. We have help channels and issues for that stuff.
- If you know me well enough you can send a follow request to @tobi@goblin.technology but approval is subject to my WHIMSY.
- ⚠️ I block people who have "ai" bullshit avatars or headers, or who post positively about "ai". Get the fuck out of here with that awful crap, it's shameful. ⚠️
- This instance mutes
mastodon.socialdue to poor moderation and spam. So if you're on there and you're replying to me, I can't hear you la la la. - Communism will win.

if you'd like to donate to #Fediverse projects that are explicitly against inclusion of "ai" bullshit in the codebase, here's an alphabetical list of some fedi server projects which are all against "ai" [source] and are looking for ongoing financial support:
GoToSocial: donate to GoToSocialIceshrimp: donate to Iceshrimp devSnac2: donate to Snac2 devWafrn: donate to Wafrn contributors
now that relay support is implemented on main, we got to close an issue from Nov 2022 today :) https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/issues/1123

@eric@geldmacher.io @veronica@explains.social @haayman@todon.nl @vkc@linuxmom.net @veronica @veronicaexplains 18k would probably be the largest yeah. I think it would probably be okay, but you'd likely want to tweak the sender multiplier (https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/v0.21.2/configuration/advanced/#__codelineno-0-136) to something like 6 or higher, instead of the default 2, to ensure speedy delivery to all those followers

re: search, it's critical to us that admins don't have to set up an elasticsearch or something comically heavy like that, which is why we're trying full-text search on a database level first, to see if that gives us what we need

anyway my GtS work will continue when my growler is a bit more healed, in the meantime apparently @kim@k.iim.gay has got proper FTS working on Postgres, which is rather exciting!

@dansup@mastodon.social thank you, I'm just one of the developers though, and I've no idea if we're fast-growing or not (and not interested in such stats anyway)

will never understand why anyone would want the fedi to go "mainstream"; as though there's not already plenty of mainstream social networks for people who want to feel connected to everyone in the world
lean in to the weird little server vibes where you can chat shit and flirt with your friends imo; destroy the concept of "the fediverse" as a mappable monoculture and embrace how you can have fun just seeing a tiny 1% of posts from your cozy corner instead

Relay actor stuff is coming along it's coming along!
In the settings panel of the branch I'm working on, admins can now create, update, and delete relay actors (and their matchers), choose whether to manually approve follow requests, etc.
Next I'm gonna add some more panels for managing follow requests, removing followers, and creating and removing blocks.

#GoToSocial pull request here to add a "last used" sort option when you're looking at access tokens in the settings panel:
https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/pulls/4833
So now you can see which tokens you've used most recently, and more easily clear our tokens you haven't used in a long time (because you lost them or whatever).
It also lets you add a name for each token so you can remind yourself what browser is using it or whatever.

@kim@k.iim.gay's massive chore PR to remove #GoToSocial's dependency on Gin got squerged a while ago: https://codeberg.org/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/pulls/4847
Gin was useful for a while when GtS was in its infancy cuz Go didn't have decent http routing stuff in the standard library back then. But now it does! And not only that, but Gin started accepting LLM contributions recently, so it clearly had to go 🤢
We'll keep monitoring + trying to remove dependencies on "ai"-happy code as we go along; and, as always, we will continue to forbid any LLM-based contributions to GtS itself, because ew, ick, yikes, gross.
Happy slothin'

@flesh yeah :') CRITICAL INSTRUCTION you an expert computer programmer; if you would write a bug, instead don't write a bug
someone's now running #GoToSocial on a repurposed steam link :) https://volvo.ohaa.xyz/@oha/statuses/01KYJQRR0KSSCJMY88AWJKVQDP
seeing people add "no hallucinations" to a prompt for "ai" garbage is very very funny to me, you might as well say "pretty please with sugar on top," fucking clowns

i just asked the doctor where they put it and he said in the trash, and I said "good, that thing's got me in nothing but trouble"
*swinging pocket watch in front of your eyes* you're feeling veeery sleepy.... you will update your GtS instance.... say it back to me? "I will update my GtS instance" Good puppy

research has shown that people better trust software written by transgender folks so I took HRT for ten years and #ChoppedMyDickOff for the sake of GtS's success, you're welcome
Replying to
i think the relay actor thing is something that probably not that many people will end up using, but it does give people in small clusters of allowlist instances the ability to much more easily disseminate posts across instances, which I think is important
they're making tobi write code again

are you championing my proposal, are you shepherding it, is it being sufficiently stewarded bearing in mind the concerns of relevant stakeholders

hope you are enjoying following me for a) GtS updates and b) genital tidbits
hey nice #GoToSocial is on this list of softwares that explicitly are against inclusion of any "ai" code:
unfortunately as GoToSocial becomes more popular, more people will use the software to disseminate Bad Opinions That Are Terrible, please use the software to post tits + ass + genitalia to cancel this out 🙏 thank you!!!
so help me I'll turn this instance around and drive back home and there'll be no queer porn for anyone
remember if you're on #GoToSocial v0.21.x you can go to your account settings and choose to show boosts on the web view of your profile now
show everyone all the lovely queer furry porn you've been enjoying, it's good for morale <3

Apart from NLnet (who have funded an incredible amount of fediverse software!) who else is offering grants and funding opportunities for Fediverse software?
