Latest FOSS Academic:https://fossacademic.tech/2025/01/18/makingAlts.htmlIn which I talk about how state regulations are affecting the development of ActivityPub and the fediverse, and how trying to make a TOS for Loops by using an online service resulted in a surveillance capitalist-friendly document.#Loops #ActivityPub #Regulations #FOSSAcademic

Mass exodus from Tiktok to RedNote is quite a spectacle, and culture exchanges worth celebrate. It's one of those best moments for Chinese internet companies: adapt to exponential growth while censorship hasn't figured out. But as we refugees from Chinese internet have learnt time and time again: Iron Fist might be late, but it will come. So enjoy while it lasts.Meanwhile, thanks to contributors, #NeoDB released French & German support today, imo this will enable more lasting culture exchange.

@dansup I signed up today. Been loving the authenticity and being able to connect with real people again. Thankyou!

全新 NeoDB app，這是目前的進度。#neodb #buildinginpublic #buildingpublic @neodb

@jenniferplusplus Thank you so much!

@iftas @neil @dee @russss @rachelcoldicutt another thing to bear in mind is ActivityPub has one moderator for every 1200 active accounts, far higher than most if not all centralised services - vital to reinforce this understanding with regulators who might be worried we are the wild west. https://about.iftas.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Fediverse-Trust-Safety-Needs-Assessment-Report-2024.pdfref: https://www.socialmediatoday.com/news/x-has-significantly-fewer-moderation-staff/714650/

@MikeYin no one is stopping you

@unsafe appreciate it nonetheless! We’ve had another request for this. It essentially comes down to our payment provider Polar supporting other options, e.g. cryptocurrencies. We can’t just add it as an option ourselves since we rely on Polar as our Merchant of Record to simplify tax management.

@peertube great news! Thanks for doing the work here. Looking forward to being able to access makertube from iOS, but I understand why you're taking the staged and careful approach
