This simple basket used to be a daily tool… now everyone wants one.

Vintage gathering baskets weren’t made for decoration—they were built for real work: collecting apples, eggs, herbs, and more. Every mark, worn handle, and repair tells a story of use and tradition.

X ist für Behörden längst kein neutraler Informationskanal mehr. Viel Risiko, wenig Reichweite – und dort, wo Beiträge sichtbar werden, profitieren oft vor allem Empörung, rechte Mobilisierung und eine vergiftete Kommentarspalte. Wer Desinformation bekämpfen will, sollte Musks Plattform nicht weiter mit staatlicher Präsenz aufwerten, sondern Alternativen stärken.

What a timing! Just as we start to promote our experimental #Mastodon instance to our newcomer students today, there is the "Nodes On A Web" unconference "The #Fediverse in/for Public Institutions" at Amsterdam 😅

Het duizelt me soms met al die AI. Zeker als het gaat over intieme menselijke onderwerpen. Ik krijg toch langzamerhand het idee dat het een doodlopende weg is, in ieder geval op dit "Tinder" vlak. We moeten denk ik weer terug naar de kroeg, de supermarkt, de bibliotheek, het verenigingsleven, de kermissen in dorpen en steden verderop, om leuke nieuwe mensen te leren kennen.

Soms lukt het misschien ook wel op #mastodon

🎉 Support for #Mastodon #quotes in #Akkoma is here!

I am happy to announce that support for Mastodon’s Consent-Respecting Quote Posts (FEP-044f) may finally land in Akkoma.

It means that I can finally quote Mastodon posts like everybody else does!

This was a tough one to implement. Quotes were historically frowned upon by Mastodon developers, even though most of the other Fediverse services have already supported them for years (and the implementation was often as simple as a RE:<url> message).

Mastodon finally implemented quotes after a couple of years of internal discussion, and what came out of that discussion was the FEP-044f specification.

Not a simple RE:<url>, but a 3-way protocol with quote requests, authorizations and withdrawals, to be supported both on a per-profile and per-post basis.

Of course this broke compatibility with most of the other Fediverse software out there that had already relied on its conventions for years, and that’s the reason why you often can’t quote Mastodon posts on other Fediverse services.

The implementation in my PR tries its best to maintain compatibility both with the existing conventions, and implement an FEP-044f negotiation if the server requires it.

This is probably not the end of this story yet, as frontend support is still missing - users on Mastodon can tweak their quote policy on a per-profile and per-post basis, in Akkoma’s case the policy is public for everything, to be consistent with the existing RE:<url> convention. It can probably be implemented later if there enough demand (but there’s a long tail of at least 4-5 other frontends that all need to be updated).

In the meantime, if you want to already use the new feature, you can build Akkoma from the feature branch on my fork: https://git.fabiomanganiello.com/blacklight/akkoma/src/branch/feature/fep-044f/mastodon-quotes
