Quick reminder that if you manage a #Funkwhale pod and are ok with basic stats to be collected, you can submit your pod domain on https://network.funkwhale.audio/

It's helpful to have an idea of the size of the network, the number of active users, the deployment of new versions, etc.

By doing so, you'll contribute to those dashboards: https://network.funkwhale.audio/dashboards/d/overview/funkwhale-network-overview?orgId=1

You can opt-out at any time, from your pod settings (older stats will be deleted as well if you do).

Thanks!

Hi!

It'll be my B-day this month and I'm still having economical difficulties on top of my chronic diseases & disabilities.

There's a couple of items in my wishlist that I'd love to have in order to help me cope with pain + get some training at home regarding balance and resistance: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/26OM415O8PB9K

If you can/are willing to help me in some way (boosts help a lot!), I'd appreciate it tons!

Thank you!

Suppose you’ve picked up an Android phone on the street and you saw the 4 apps above. Can you guess the profile of the phone user?

Feeling lost? Here's a good guide to Mastodon and some of its features, etiquette and culture: https://github.com/joyeusenoelle/GuideToMastodon/

hey y'all. we're disabled, and we don't qualify for any government income, and we really need to have income that we can use to either move out, or at least pay for our own groceries/part of rent so that our (abusive and controlling) parents feel that we're less of a Burden.

we can't guarantee any Thing in return to y'all, given our lack of ability to consistently work and output stuff.

so with that, if you're willing to help us with income:

our patreon is really helpful. it's how we pay for our meds, and it's the best form of consistent income we have rn. it's a big big thing for us that helps a lot, especially if we wanted to move out.
our paypal and cash app are more like a stopgap, it feels. we don't really wanna rely on them as income, but they do help if you want to give us some money.

thanks for reading, boosts are obviously welcome, etc. 💚🖤💙

where do you find the public blocklists for your instance?

The Fedi #SFFBookClub selection for November and December is Invisible Planets, an anthology of Chinese short science fiction.

Tie broken because the holiday months seem like a good time to experiment with short stories.

To participate, just use and follow the hashtag, and CW, in this case, which story you're discussing and may be spoiling.

We have funds available to help purchase the book if needed. Contact me directly.

@eloisa Well! @phoe, myself, and others have a project called Gateway, but it's in the early alpha stages and definitely not a thing people can experiment with at the moment. It'd basically be a federated game once complete.

I myself draw and draw stuff for people in exchange for money! Mostly furry things, aliens, and so forth. Anyone interested can DM me for examples, and check out my site!

#NewHere and/or in look of more people to follow?

Besides checking the Introductions hashtags + the Local & Federated Timeline and meddle in the conversations, you can also use #Trunk!

Check it out at: https://communitywiki.org/trunk/ - its goal is "to connect newbies with people" by allowing "you to follow a bunch of people in order to get started with (...) the Fediverse."

If you click on one of the lists in there, you'll see a page full of people that volunteered to be on it, which is based on interests and/or identities.

You can follow the list; opt to follow just one by one, or just move along to the next list and check it out.

For example, there's a list called Friendly People. Another called Open Education, one for FLOSS, and you even have Clown in there! 😋

@eloisa I am trying to think what I have that 'feedverse people' might like ... maybe Historical Prices for Gamers and Writers https://bookandsword.com/2017/05/20/historical-prices-for-gamers-and-writers/ or Armour of the Month https://bookandsword.com/tag/armour-of-the-month/

@eloisa @remotenemesis I’ve been working on @ObjFW, an Objective-C framework that brings #ObjC to non-Apple platforms, for almost 10 years. Pretty much nobody knows about it or uses it.
