For many, holiday shopping is underway or about to start, and there are a lot of reasons someone might be unable or find it difficult to shop local. If that's you and you're looking for alternatives to Amazon, I made you a list of online retailers that carry gifts, home goods, electronics, decor, clothing, furniture, pet products, jewelry, art, and more!

Looks like I'm stuck on sign in. My guess is the same bug for Firefox on Android is impacting the app login.
@vwbusguy i'm working on a fix!
Big congrats!!! @dansup
FYI whatever version I previously installed would not update, it said there was a problem with the package.
However, deleting and reinstalling worked. Unfortunately I didn't get a screenshot of the error or record the previous app version before uninstalling.
Will there be a PlayStore entry in the future?

Check out this comment on Loops by @moortaube@loops.video!
loops.video/v/bNlvGU87mo?cid=b…
Playback works too on new Android APK.But comment input is behind keyboard and everytime I hit a key on it a "refresh" of profile pictures in the given comments is initialized.
For those who have errors updating the old ones, just delete the old ones and install freshly, that worked for me.
Scrolling seems to be working smoothly in this release, good job!
Just an FYI for all, if someone has the original version of the app updated to 1.0.0.??? the APK won't be able to install over top to update, seems I had to uninstall/then install APK.
is there a way to send you the log?
first bug submitted, but sometimes the app is crashing without reason (I try to upload a big file (~500mb, 3min)
@IzzyOnDroid Mist 😄 Trotzdem Danke für die Rückmeldung.
still can’t sign in from Finland
managed to get logged in and pop a video of a jellyfish from yesterday on there. Neat app! Thanks 😀
couldn't update. Uninstall AND reinstall worked. Everything looking great so far. WOOT!
Awesome, thanks!
do you know if that is available on f-droid.org ?
will it be in f-droid too? 😀
@madeindex No, only in Huawei. As Huawei provides Open HarmonyOS, any company can put it on its smartphone and create modifications on top. When it is an option to buy a smartphone on android vs about harmonyos, Android will die. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm stuck with the verification on sign up. Every time I've tried, it won't verify.

It’s not finished. It’s not perfect. But it’s real. 🥹
Loops is now open, built in public, and growing every day — laying the groundwork for a future where you can build your own TikTok.
A future where governments can’t censor you. Where corporations can’t control the conversation. Where the social web belongs to the people again.
This is how it starts. ✊

What's the difference with the already existing PeerTube?
"Fastly CDN and Object storage is used by Loops to host and serve Loops video to a global audience" Why not hosting it on AWS instead? (Yes, I troll, but this one was too tempting.)
well done! Congratulations.
So needed. I hope it gets very successful.

Congratulations, and thank-you.
Has loops.video now federated? Are there accounts there we can follow to test this out?
is it intended to play on a web browser or in an app (TikTok is both). Also, like TikTok, can folks anonymously browse?
@hfinyow we support both web and app, and yes, you can anon browse!
We even have public tags and an explore page!
Kudos Daniel. Incredible hard work done to help enrich the fedi! 💪 🎉
I feel abandoned having an early account on loops.video. No web interface, no federation.
@virtuous_sloth it’s coming this week, don’t worry!

It seems the joinloops.org front page doesn't like Firefox Mobile much. Slow to load, refuses to scroll, the buttons remain below the fold.

Dan, thanks for confirming no telemetry but can I also get you to confirm:
Are there any hooks/code for pushing ads/hashtags/etc? Either opt-in or opt-out?

I'm trying to figure out your "Login or Register" UX flow. On an Android phone from a Chrome browser, there's a "Login" but not a "Register" flow that I can see.
Would love to try it out before I try learning TikTok !
Would love to try it out before I try learning TikTok !
I'm no UX genius, but I kind of look for a "Create New Account" button when I click though a "Register or Login" button ?
I'm expected to just enter a new unique secure password if I'm a new user maybe ?
@jab01701mid this might not be a UI thing.
What instance are you trying to sign up for?
Both getloops.social/ and m.yloops.com/ are more so test instances and don't have registration open, I think.
loops.video is currently the primary instance, and has registration open, but it doesn't have the new Web UI yet. It's coming this week, alongside the mobile app update.
loops.one is an independent instance, and it does have registration open.
congratulations!!! For those of use using the beta version through TestFlight. Should we delete it and download the new one?
exciting. Looking forward to explore and hopefully bring up my own. Signed up and waiting.
congrats!! 🥳 excited to watch Loops continue to grow!

Meet Loops — a new, federated TikTok alternative that’s open-source and self-hosted.
Every movement begins with a spark.
Loops is that spark — breaking down the walls built around creativity and replacing them with doors anyone can open, explore, and build upon.

Out of curiousity, iss there any telemetry shared from self-hosted instances to any centralized service?
@john yes, if you enable federation, it submits your domain to fedidb.com like WordPress and other projects. That is it.
@dansup
Thanks, glad there's no other telemetry. I've RP'd. Are there any code injections? (Ads, followers, hashtags?)

There’s a bit of a user experience issue here for folks who don’t realize that they need to find a specific federated server to join: joinloops.org links to fedidb.com where the first thing you see is a button for Loops labeled “Website”, which loops back to joinloops.org which…
It would nice if there was a “Find a Server” button on FediDB just above “Website” that scrolled down to the servers.

The world is upside down and inside out, and all we come up with is a TikTok alternative.
Reposting in case it got lost in your no doubt very busy feed today @dansup @pixelfed
Congrats on this release! Glad you confirmed pixelfed collects no telemetry save for the instance's existence outbound.
Did you code in any process to inject any ads, follows, etc INTO instances?
@aapis
That's exactly my take - but for the millions of folks who are into that sort of thing, I'm glad there is a privacy-respecting place for them to do so.

not having ads has been declared many times by Dan as one of the purposes of this app.
As for injecting follows, it's unclear what you mean, but if it has anything to do with following someone against the will of either side involved, it is against the principles of the fediverse. This makes me wonder why would you even ask such a question. So maybe you meant something else?
Soo, will pixelfed now maybe finally get a working account migration process?
Is it actually federated *right now*? Or is that still a planned feature for the future? I don't seem to be able to follow my Loops account from here.
I'm not seeing the same settings and privacy options that's shown in the video. I also can't seem to scroll through the hashtags. Not sure if it's a me issue or not.
It doesn't seem like there's been any Android update since February. Is it still hosted on github or is it in another app store and I've missed that change?

I haven't been able to take my usual pleasure in food lately, and so I have been seeking comfort by cocooning myself in scent.
Some perfumes I have loved:
La Casa Azul (DSH Perfumes/Dawn Spencer Hurwitz) - cigarette smoke, cigars, tequila, cognac, jalapeno spice, French perfume, leather, salt, and sex. This. This is the scent I want people to associate with me. It's just so perfectly crafted, so gorgeously androgynous. There is a tomato leaf note in here that pairs fantastically with the smoke and leather facets, creating a balance between bracing and airy, aquatic, and sensually earthy.

How it's going:
After Ralph had to be re-admitted to the emergency hospital on July 4th due to a severe case of bloat, things settled back down and we reached what felt like a tenuous equilibrium - not a place of true calm, but where it no longer felt like constant crisis.
Then a week ago, Ralph started having focal seizures that escalated to generalized seizures his "cluster bluster" medication failed to control, and he had to be admitted to the ER for the third time in three weeks. After returning home, the focal seizures resumed. We eventually learned that he was under-medicated, and after upping his dosages, he returned to his "Roid Ralph the Bark Shark" incarnation. We were glad to see it.
Bella briefly seemed to be doing a little better but then took a downward turn, refusing food and displaying effortful breathing. We took her for a "quality of life" assessment today and discovered she has fluid in her lungs. The vet felt it was worth trying some Lasix and another round of steroids, but we may be looking at saying goodbye to our sweet old lady this week.
For now, we are holding out hope for a miracle.

This Tuber grew a tumor, our Queen B is refusing to eat, and we don't know how much time we have with either of them.
*****
A couple of weeks ago, Bella started refusing to eat - despite appearing hungry and interested in food. We have since been back and forth to our regular vet and an internal medicine specialty clinic. Despite blood work and scans, anti-nausea meds and appetite stimulants, antibiotics and steroids - and a buffet of different foods - we are not closer to answers or a clear path forward.
Then last Friday, out of the blue, Ralph started having seizures. He spent the weekend at the emergency clinic where they were able to stabilize him, and we crossed our fingers for an epilepsy diagnosis. Instead, the MRI revealed a glioma - a type of brain tumor common in Boston Terriers. With palliative care, typical survival time is about a month.
We were devastated.
But Ralph's seizures are currently under control with medication, and we were able to bring him home. He is full of steroids and shenanigans, earning the moniker "Roid Ralph."
He will continue to have seizures, and eventually we will have to make a difficult choice. After weighing our current options, we are considering enrolling him in a clinical trial of mebendazole:
pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/…
We hope it will extend his time with us and also help future dogs and humans.
In the meantime, we are doing our best to keep both Bella and Ralph comfortable and give them the best quality of life possible for whatever time they have left.
ALL THE TREATS. ALL THE SNUGGLES.
Please keep them in your good thoughts.

oh I love this! Was thinking about this just today while I was browsing through Goodreads, owned by Amazon.

In case you hadn't gotten a lot of other info, saw this and thought of you,
@czarbucks Excellent timing. I’d love to move my goodreads data over and close my account. Still looking for an instance though. Maybe this will help me find one! Thanks!
You're so helpful! Thank you!
I'm still trying to find a way to import from Anobii: did you perchance find any and willing to share please? Apart from gifting all my data also to Goodreads in order to reimport from there it seems the other guides online are not updated and scripts don't work as expected on anobii's exports :/
Is there a section of Anobii's settings that lets you export your data as CSV files?
I tried to use BookWyrm a couple of years ago but there doesn't seem to be any interoperability between it and Goodreads. I have a network of a handful of people on Goodreads so I feel I have to stick there 🙁
The network effect is very difficult to leave, that's why Amazon etc tend to ban interoperability.
If you ever do feel able to leave Amazon in the future though, it's good you know there are alternatives 🙂
The main idea of the Fediverse is to prevent this kind of situation, as people can switch servers without leaving the overall network.
I never buy anything from Amazon. I think Goodreads is the only thing in their Empire I use at all.
What we need is a client that lets me post to both and aggregates feeds from both.
I don't think this is possible as Amazon has been shutting down Goodreads's APIs:

PeerTube is not just about Linux and FOSS any more, you can have a look at fedi.video to see all sorts of accounts that have uploaded.
If you're not a video creator but you follow someone on YouTube, you might want to politely suggest to them that they mirror their channel on PeerTube so that people can watch without having to use YouTube.

Podcloud might be where I will host.
If you publish on PeerTube and want a shout out, send me a message. I try to promote PeerTube accounts as much as possible 🙂
That is so kind.

I will also interview people.

no idea if this is the sort of stuff you’d shout out though
p.p.s. It's not as difficult or expensive as you might think to start your own PeerTube server. There are managed hosting services which do all the techy stuff for you (installation, upgrades, maintenance, fixing any problems etc), and these start from US$6.99 per month inclusive of everything (fedihost.co/pricing).
You can ask @fedihost about entry level PeerTube hosting, and @Cloud68 is also a good one.

I think most of the channels I watch on YT aren't going to migrate to PT, because it's nearly impossible to monetize.
But... I think I may need to leave YT anyway.
Even the ones that I also Patreonize...
Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
@BoydStephenSmithJr it can't hurt to ask them about it! a lot of channels I watch get most/all of their revenue from Patreon regardless, so it in theory would not be a problem for them
Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
@GroupNebula563 @BoydStephenSmithJr
A lot of YouTube channels no longer make much in direct monetisation, they often make more from Patreon and sponsorships.
Patreon and sponsorships are platform-neutral, so they can be done on any video platform including PeerTube (for example @thelinuxexperiment mentions sponsors at the start, @michellemay mentions Patreons at the end).
Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
@GroupNebula563 @BoydStephenSmithJr directly yes, indirectly no though. A sponsor wants to see numbers, and i bet you Squarespace is not happy with the numbers peertube makes for 90% of the people they currently have under contract (Squarespace seems to sponsor every video i watch haha, lots of art stuff)
Don't get me wrong, I've been looking into peertube recently because I want to get rid of yt. But the monetisation via sponsors is nowhere near what you can make on yt.

Oh yeah of course, I just mean there is not a technical barrier 🙂
If someone's PeerTube started getting large numbers of views, they would be able to get a sponsor the same way they do on YouTube or any other video platform. And you can have sponsors on multiple platforms, in fact it's probably easier so you can upload the same file everywhere.
Also, patrons are available at any scale, I have patrons for my Fediverse accounts.

There are PeerTube instances for gamers:
video.gamerstavern.online
video.hardlimit.com
video-cave-v2.de (in German)
...but bear in mind these are being paid for by the instance owners. Usually they only cover costs for videos that other people might want to watch.
If you upload only for your own viewing, it seems reasonable to ask for payment? YouTube is only "free" is because it is spying on people and filling videos with advertising (and now it's allowing hate speech).

so is every tech company in the US legally required to do this now? like, is there some sort of new shit where all companies have to allow hate speech against gender identities otherwise they'll get the boot from Trump?
@cardboard
No law AFAIK, it's just them being greedy and thinking they can make more money by pleasing Trump.
They want government contracts, they want favourable laws in other areas etc, and they see that Trump responds to people who suck up to him, so this is what they do.
I hope the staff at YouTube/Google walk out over things like this, sounds like a horrible company to work for.

If they didn't walk out over the abusive copyright trolling situation, they probably won't walk out over this.

One caveat is that Peertube uses Google and wsimg trackers for some reason and won't load if you have something like Privacy badger running.
Anyone know how long it will take to move 46 videos.
I guess first step is setting up a Peer Tube Account.
@the5thColumnist depends on video length and such. PeerTube offers a feature where you can sync over all your videos from YT, though it is disabled on some instances
@GroupNebula563 @the5thColumnist
Yeah, it will vary a LOT depending on how long the videos are, how large the files are, how high quality they are.
Best way to find out is to ask the admin of the server you want to go to, or the hosting company if you want to set up your own.
Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
@the5thColumnist I know cuddly.tube offers unlimited storage (albeit at the cost of being just a tiny bit slow), so that might be a good starting point at least
I don't know them specifically, but unlimited storage doesn't sound very sustainable?
It might be better to find somewhere that has been around a while and offers a sustainable amount of storage.

Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
@the5thColumnist fair enough, I presume they just have a *lot* of storage and will apply caps if needed. it's also run by a group that hosts some other stuff, so I suspect some of its revenue comes from other services
@GroupNebula563
If you do that do they stay on peertube. if you get rid of your Youtube account.
Also I may lose my Youtube videos that are posted on blogger.
I have to figure out how to do this with least damage.
Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
@the5thColumnist you will not lose your YT videos if you delete your channel AFTER syncing is COMPLETED FULLY. as for the Blogger thing, it is probably possible to edit your posts to show PeerTube embeds instead (though I’m no expert)

One by one the cowards fall ....
There really needs to be a simple link to register on PeerTube, other decentralised alternatives are doing much better I feel.
What do you think of DailyMotion? I know it's a French app and it works very well.
But my comment still gets deleted if I call a MAGA moron a "MAGA moron."

I’m all for giving up on YouTube in theory. I’ve already ditched Google, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Office, etc. etc. Sign me up, but losing YouTube would be HARD. I watch so many creators on there and it’s the de facto place for sharing videos online.
Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
It is hard yes, but we have to start somewhere and it doesn't have to be done all in one go.
Even if a single channel gives people the option of following on PeerTube, that's a great improvement for that channel's followers 🙂
Cainmark Does Not Comply 🚲 reshared this.
@fraser hope you don't mind me pinging you about this, but any thoughts on also posting your videos to a Peertube instance? No worries if not of course, just thought I'd float the idea
Indeed! The real world effects are potentially the worst part of all this: social.chinwag.org/@FediThing/…
Imagine a stranger spreads lies about you. They tell everyone you're doing horrible stuff, the worst crimes imaginable. They make videos, articles, livestreams, all pushing the same lies designed to make everyone hate and fear you.Would you "just block them"?
What happens when other people don't block them? When other people believe them, follow them, share their lies?
What if this turns into real life abuse? If someone attacks you or your family?
This is what vulnerable minorities face because of badly-moderated social media:

So, the same policy that was just enacted by the Democratic Party.
youtube has always been as bad as facebook
not sure how they flew under the radar
I'm so very tired of hearing people use the term Woke when they have no idea of it's meaning.
Woke simply means treating ALL people with Dignity and Respect!!!!
It's really sad that the right can't just treat people with dignity and respect!!! 😖 💔 
The Democratic Party just did the same thing. I guess we know who's getting tossed under the bus...again.
Unfortunately, Google has bent the knee to the Trump regime, changing geographical names, allowing hate speech on its platforms, censoring the opposition, and so on... It's disgusting!
Peertube up and running.
Are you wanting a shoutout for something on there already, or are you inviting people to sign up there? 🙂
Well, I'm saying agree with you're trying to promote (or discourage too). I've got a node up and running if people want to sign up I'll host 'em.
Okay, brilliant! 😃
what's your instance address? I don't need hosting, just always looking for more freedom based content. 😀.

Great resource, thanks. Curiously when I googled this, it didn't come up. Also, if I google "peertube xxxxx" xxxx being any other term, it always returns 0 results. I may have to switch to duck duck go.

Thanks for bringing this up by the way, I've now added a link to the forum on the fedi.tips guide.
I'll take subscriptions as much as capacity will allow.
I know this is a long shot, but are you aware of any Apple TV apps for Peertube? (And yes, I know Apple is pretty awful too, especially recently, but there’s only so much I can try to change at a time…)
Don't worry, totally understand the "one thing a time" thing! 🙂

-There is an iPhone app, but it is severely restricted by bizarre app store rules which don't really suit federated networks. I'd recommend using the website or podcast options as they're not restricted.

I’ve wanted to get off YouTube for years now, but I’ve struggled with finding a suitable alternative. I haven’t found any potential hosts that would allow enough space for how much content I make, and the pricing and setting up to make my own would be too much. I genuinely want to, but don’t know how to make it work 💚
We can only do what we can 🙂
It's good to be aware of the options whatever you decide to do.
peertube no bueno
It's much, much better than it was five years ago. That's why I run this account and the site at fedi.video, to highlight the interesting new stuff appearing on it.
you can't upload on it yet, though. Your post explicitly says to do that

Hi,
YouTube, as X, become made with their rules / moderation...
YouTube, as X, become made with their rules / moderation...
The current hate speach policy page includes "Sex, Gender, or Sexual Orientation"
support.google.com/youtube/ans…
So this seems to just be straight up not true.
Please consider researching any articles you might want to repost as in this case you are spreading misinformation.

Here's what GLAAD (who specialise in protecting LGBTQIA+ rights) says in the linked article:
“YouTube quietly removing ‘gender identity and expression’ from its list of protected groups is a major radical shift away from best practices in the field of trust and safety and content moderation,”
"“If YouTube’s hate speech policy really does still protect people from being targeted with hate on the basis of ‘gender identity,’ the public-facing policy should continue to say that."
Not only this, YouTube also removed this from an example of rule-breaking:
“[Protected group status] is just a form of mental illness that needs to be cured,”
...so they seem to be now allowing people to be accused of mental illness if they are LGBTQIA+ etc.
Accusations of mental illness is how LGBTQIA+ groups have been persecuted, it's why it was illegal in so many countries for so long. Allowing this kind of language is opening the doors for awful and dangerous bigotry.

I totally understand why one would react to this change in a negative way. However, myself being a minority and subject to more hate speech than the people that see themselves as the superior race, have never seen the group of people I belong to mentioned specifically in hate speech policies. That doesn't mean I never felt less protected by them. It's not like YouTube now supports hate speech towards certain groups just because they don't mention them anymore.
alright. time to take a serious look at #peertube then.
Let me know if I can help!
I use my PS5 for media, which limits me to watching on YouTube...
It's becoming apparent I need to scrap this convenience and build a streaming box to watch on my TV, cause everything is becoming nazified and I need to move more and more to alternatives that aren't on mainstream devices.

If you have a browser on PS5 it should be able to show you PeerTube's web interface?
Nope, they made sure I cant be browsing.
Darn, okay... 😞
Yeah, to confirm:
PeerTube is NOT blockchain, nothing on the Fediverse is blockchain!
PeerTube and the rest of the Fediverse are just ordinary traditional files on ordinary traditional servers. It is totally possible to delete them if you want to, just like any other file.
It is also possible to ask other servers to carry spare copies of your videos in case your server breaks down, but this is optional and up to the video creator.
This entry was edited (8 months ago)
On PeerTube videos, they are streamed from the original server even if they have federated elsewhere. The file sizes are so huge, it isn't practical to automatically copy entire videos to other servers the way that text posts are copied.
The only exception to this is if you've asked other servers to make backups of your video so that it can still be played if your server goes down. But this is up to you and totally optional.
It is truly interesting to compare web.archive.org/web/2025011914… with support.google.com/youtube/ans…
Do they not know that this service exists?
Considering this particular service went down just before the US elections last year due to an attack, guessing that at least some people don't like it existing and bringing up what they said before.
@davethepitt @FediFollows if I’m not mistaken, PeerTube videos are deletable (just like the rest of the fediverse), though do bear in mind that just like any fediverse platform, instances could not comply with the deletion status
It's a long story but basically don't use the app. The rules on app stores aren't suitable for federated networks and have made it very difficult for PeerTube to make an app store app that gets approved.
I'd highly recommend using a server's website and then installing it as a web app, this will give you full access to all the features and bypass the app store restrictions completely. Here's how to install web apps: fedi.tips/how-to-install-web-a…

@taylorlorenz@mastodon.social
Go figure. All of us saying that these huge corporations that made token displays of support for the LGBTQ+ community would completely change their tune the second it became more profitable to do so were right all along.
This is why corporations should have *never* been allowed at Pride. That debate had better be fucking settled once and for all at this point.
This is not surprising. Companies do not support minorities. The decision is not a change of heart but a revelation of a truth that always existed on YouTube.
#BoycottYouTube We need to put all of these people out of business and please stop sharing any YouTube videos on Mastodon. Money is the only thing they understand so let’s take all of theirs.

There is a really good privacy feature on Mastodon and the rest of the Fediverse:
When you post a link on Mastodon etc, it remains exactly as you posted it. There is no analytics or tracking going on, no one is monitoring clicks on links.
By contrast, on Twitter/X and Bluesky the links people post are redirected so clicks can be monitored. We don't know exactly what Musk or Bluesky do with this info, but they do it by redirecting all links to sites they control (t.co & go.bsky.app).

That's why i never click on links to those domains. If someone shares a link directly from a Twitter feed it will route through Twitter before the site you want.
The problem is Bluesky hides this redirect domain. The links you click on look like normal links, you can't see the redirect domain in any way, not even by hovering the mouse over it. Most people probably don't realise they are being redirected.
The only way you know about it is because the redirect URL very briefly flashes on the screen after clicking, and because Bluesky itself said they had introduced this.

@RnDanger Wow, yeah, that's a new one for me too... They're using plain <a href> tags. Must be hooking into the onclick event at a global level or something.
But, since it only applies to the mouse click events, you can right-click there and choose "open in new tab" and that bypasses their tracker.
@2xfo
@louis
Does this tracking only function on bluesky pages then? That doesn't seem like something that would carry over with the original link
(I'm assuming plain text, maybe that's wrong of me)

that's lovely. I wonder if when you enter a link from elsewhere with tracking Mastodon should warn you, perhaps even help you clean.
Great for publishers, not great for privacy 🙁
I mean, fediverse is not privacy space? It's more like public square to hangout, but that's mine feeling 
@TheHCJ
There's nothing to stop Bluesky giving publishers a useful Referer [sic] and legally binding themselves from using that information for marketing.
They just don't.
(They also don't strictly need to use a redirect to track links themselves. But maybe the other way is not as good, idk).
@sourcejedi I doubt they would be using it for marketing as they don't plan on advertising in the future. Things can change though 🤷
@Alan
@TheHCJ
I didn't remember that. For privacy-trap purposes, I think it's fair to be cynical. It'd be great to see a non-ad funded model, but it's fairly novel (ignoring user donations).
I was reading the privacy policy. They do allow themselves to use "personal information" for marketing.
Though, it doesn't explicitly say they can share it for marketing purposes. AFAIK, "partners with whom we jointly offer products or services" is not an accepted euphemism for 3rd party ads.

Bluesky have said on multiple occasions they may introduce advertising in the future, and as a for-profit owned by VCs it's very likely they will do this.. This kind of redirect is perfect infrastructure for promotions etc.
pour Bluesky on peut y échapper en faisant un glisser-déposer du lien vers un nouvel onglet, au lieu de cliquer dessus
(par sur Twitter, le lien est raccourci et passe forcément par leur serveur)
link tracking is a hallmark feature of shitty services
This entry was edited (8 months ago)
I’d always assumed it protected the user from having their profile or group leaked to websites they visit (which is good IMO for privacy if there’s not another way to achieve that). Hadn’t considered Facebook using it for tracking and did not look into getting more website-related metrics from them.
The most blatant tracking, of course, is when social media sites try to map your network of contacts with share IDs tacked onto URLs (or just unique URLs) you share.
Clicking on a direct link doesn't show your profile to websites? I've not heard that before?
Whatever info leaks to a website, it's the same whether you click directly or via a redirect. The redirect just leaks additional info to whoever controls the redirect site.
I didn’t mean that direct links don’t show your profile to websites, of course that would happen if following a link from someone’s profile (at least on the web).
Looking at Google analytics for Facebook referrals in the past, I only saw a redirect URL as the referrer, not the URL of anyone’s profile (same with Twitter). Facebook offered a more private experience by default, so it seemed to make sense to me that way. But it’s quite obvious now that they have nefarious uses for that data with tendrils that spread across the web to collect an entire profile about you.
Ahhh gotcha, now I understand what you mean 🙂

How to share a video to Friendica.world in March 2025
//EDIT: The missing "Attach File" button seems to be a fearue of the Frio/BookFace theme. Other Frio appearance options seem to work. Insights from the BookFace developer in the comments!
Feel free to share the post if you find the instructions helpful. And feel free to correct me, if I missed or misunderstood something!
1. Change the theme to Vrier (the "Attach file" button is not available on the default Frio theme)
2. Start writing a post and press Attach File icon
3. Scroll down to find Upload button
4. Upload your video (at least smallish mp4-files work)
5. Click the filename you just uploaded
6. Finish and share your post!

Hello, I created the Bookface scheme for Frio. I'm not actually part of the Friendica development team. I just made a custom stylesheet.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but it's not a bug. I purposely hid the "File Attachment" button because there is no interface for managing/deleting the files. It only works with relatively small files and even when the upload limit is large it is prone to failing. Also, sometimes you may intend to upload an image and it will be uploaded as a file instead. Rather than expose new users to this incomplete, partially-broken feature, I made a UX design decision to hide the button in Bookface.
According to the Friendica GitHub account the lead developer said "I'd suggest you use PeerTube to post video and reshare from your Friendica account since both support ActivityPub." Presumably people should also be sharing other types of files by putting them on a cloud drive somewhere and sharing a link to the file rather than uploading them to their Friendica account.
Years ago there was a video upload button and section. Those were removed because none of the current Friendica developers have experience with handing video files. IMO if they're not going to add a file manager the File attachment feature should also be removed.

Thank you for your reply and the super interesting insights! I had been wondering about managing my uploaded files. What if I wanted to delete a file for any reason - let's say if I had picked a private file instead of the intended video by mistake. Apparently there is no way to do that.
I'll look into PeerTube for sharing videos!

Super happy with my Pixelfed experience overall and have provided some humble support to the project.
However, I've tried several times to import my photos from my old Instagram account (instagram.com/ralphtater/) to my new Pixelfed account (ralphtater@pixelfed.social), and while the bulk of them have come over beautifully, I'm still missing about 28 posts out of 205.
It's only a handful and not a huge loss, but I am curious why these posts won't import. I have not been able to identify a common factor (they're not all one file type - some are photos, some are videos). Any idea what's going on or suggestions for what I could try?
Thank you for your work!

Unable to Add Certain Contacts to Circles
@Friendica Support @support@forum.friendi.ca
Apologies for posting about this again, but I didn't see any replies and was hoping someone might have an idea.
I have set up a number of different Circles, and for the most part, they are working well.
However, when setting up and editing Circles, not all my contacts appear as options to add to the Circle.
Why is this, and is there a work-around or way to fix it?
