That modern UI addon looks pretty cool but doesn’t work for me despite running 0.18.2.

Do you have to get your instance manually added for support?

Thanks! It’s nice to get a little recognition for putting in the work 😎

Damn. The app situation has improved so dramatically over the last month!

Congrats on your promotion to a 1! You earned it (by posting).

From my understanding peertube has less restrictions of content compared with youtube.

It would depend on the PeerTube instance you join.

Meh. Sounds like a bunch of tankie bullshit.

Yes and no. And verifying by domain is better, especially for people who are likely to be impersonated (ex. Journalists).

Rel=“me” doesn’t actually verify a user’s identity, it verifies that a user has a relationship with a website. The problem is that you need to leave Mastodon to make sure that the website actually verifies their identity. I’ve verified a connection between a Mastodon and Pixelfed account, for example, but it doesn’t tell you anything about who I am. It’s also much easier to spoof a website than it is to get the BBC to give you an account on their private instance.

It really works great the other way though! If you have a known identity here, you can be sure that the linked sites are legit.

It also solves the verification problem. It’s without a doubt the best way to go for an organization - especially news orgs.

No problem! Cheers :)

FediDB tracks server software across the Fediverse. They track activity and overall ‘market share,’ which I think is what you’re looking for.

They’re also tracking the Threadiverse specifically.
