Have you considered the Use Case where the User is angry with you, doesn't like you, doesn't like your Product (tm), thinks your entire socio-economic class are measurably making everything worse and accelerating a global slide into fascism, genocide and extinction, and is only sullenly interacting with your Product (tm) at the cracking point of the harsh whip of capitalism because they will lose the ability to eat if they do not

because you might find that's quite a large class of users

@ilja It looks like h265 videos upload, but don't play - at least not on my instance. Here's an example: https://masto.amosamos.net/notice/AA7iWBLvR9FCv5o1r6 Searched h265 in issues and didn't find anything...

Landers invented creature. #tinkering

@Tusky Hmm, when I try to upload a 60 MB file via the web interface on pleroma instance, I get this rather unhelpful error message.

Finn's amphibian. #tinkering

@Tusky Thanks! Curious to hear what you find out.

@Tusky Thanks! I can't find anything in pleroma settings other than max attachment upload size, which I've got set to 100. So I'm not sure what is imposing the 40 MB limit.

Hey @Tusky - is the 40 mb upload limit for Videos built into Tusky, or is it something I can configure on my pleroma server? I have attachments at 100 already. Thanks!

Fancy an accelerometer-equipped skirt?

This summer, I'm gonna be re-releasing a 4-part radio documentary series on anarchism via The Rebel Beat podcast feed, "Freedom on the Air". Originally produced for CKUT 90.3FM in Montreal back in 2004, this in-depth audio documentary on anarchist history, theory and practice has been unavailable for years... until now! Hope you enjoy Part 1: Anarchy 101. Part 2 coming next week. https://anchor.fm/rebelbeatradio/episodes/Freedom-on-the-Air--Part-1-Anarchy-101-e156va9

Amazing. After 20k upvotes nonetheless.

@funkwhale HIya! Been using Funkwhale to share my collection, with my wife mostly. But I find it tough to understand how to find others to federate with, and what copyright issues there are or are not. Is there a FAQ or getting started guide for those who've got past the setup stage, and are wondering how to dive into the social aspects?

@aral @teawithfir Aral, have you considered adding site.js to something like Yunohost? Curious to hear your thoughts on things like yunohost.

Oh I am so in love with this little thing, let me tell you. :) If I can manage, some of you established #LEGOtinkering folks will be too someday. https://twitter.com/LEGOIdeaStudio/status/1030388231714627584

Twitter Maker-Educator friends: If we setup a Mastodon instance (like twitter but free-er), would you join? I’m imagining it as a space for deeper conversations about play and learning- like the great thread we just had about kits.

Planet-wide picket line: no one go back to work for corpos till you get a dignified living wage. Fuck McDonald's.

Just reading @darius 's lovely site on small scale community. But I found myself wishing it included Reggio-like documentation of what its like to be in one. Is there a story that exemplifies the qualities of a digital neighborhood like friend camp?
