PieFed v1.9 is released - Shared Blocklists, Auto-bans and TOTP
cross-posted from: piefed.social/…/piefed-v1-9-is-released-shared-bl…
New features
- Shared blocklists - these are like feeds except instead of listing communities to join it lists people to block. To to Account -> Blocklists to find this feature. Changes by the blocklist author effect all the people who subscribe to the list, causing them to block the list members. They federate, so you can subscribe to blocklists on other instances.
- Edit comments inline, without loading a separate page - wjs018
- Fediverse statistics at piefed.social/statistics
- 2-factor authentication (TOTP) - can be added to your account in the ‘Security’ page in your settings.
For admins
- Auto-ban based on the bans that instances you choose, with keyword matching on the ban reason. Go to /admin/users/auto_ban. Try putting ‘piefed.social’ in as the instance and ‘spam’ as the keyword filter. It’ll cut down on the work involved in running your instance SO much.
- Voting pattern graph on user profiles to help spot automated voting.
- Reset the password of any user.
- Lots of inauthentic behaviour reports for finding bots and serial downvoters, see /admin/votes and PM me for an instructional video. It’s a lot to take in but the video will explain it all.
API
- edit matrix user id when saving user profile data.
- scheduled post endpoints - wjs018
Plus a lot more bits and pieces, browse the list of recent releases in the 1.8.x line at codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/releases for details.
To upgrade from 1.8.x or earlier
git pull git checkout v1.9.x
Then,

@magitian if you ping a community as an user, the community's original instance shows the first paragraph as title. So if that's your question, one thing I'd suggest is not to include the community mention or hashtags in the first paragraph.
And depending on the software used to send the post, how it gets sent changes. For example, on Mbin you can make Mastodon-style posts to a community without making a mention as you pick the community in a dedicated dropdown menu (or by sending from the community's microblog tab). On Friendica, iirc it's similar to Mbin, except the differentiation between microblog and thread is if you include a title in the post's form.
Also recently Lemmy instances have been having difficulties pulling microblog posts even if they're properly sent, requiring to manually searching on each instance. Lemmy.World and Lemmy.ml both seem to be exempt from the issue though.
@Auster@thebrainbin.org @fediverse@lemmy.world That's insightful! Thanks!
Look, all I'm saying is can we please stop referring to the tool as the problem and start referring to the people abusing the tool as the problem?
Otherwise we give the latter a free pass.
That is: you're letting the oligarchs and their CEO lackeys get away clean with doing all the horrible things they are doing with this tool, and dodging all the blame by letting us frame the tool as the problem.
...while also creating a chilling-effect around positive uses (and even discussion of positive uses) of the actual tool.
For anyone saying "there are no positive uses of this tool" -- that is an extraordinary claim, so please be prepared to provide evidence if you assert it.
I also suspect it shows that you really haven't taken a good look at the tool outside of the ways it has been marketed at you and pushed on you by the aforementioned oligarch-minions.
I guess I can't blame you for that -- but please do think about it.
#Fediverse-Client/App #Tusky
Die App Tusky für #Android gehört zu den langjährigen Klassikern unter den fediversalen Apps und nutzt die #Mastodon-#Client-#API, um sich mit Konten auf kompatiblen Instanzen zu verbinden. Hauptaugenmerk liegt hierbei auf der Fediverse-Plattform #Mastodon.
Tusky ist ein Open-Source-Projekt, daher entstanden im Laufe der Zeit weitere "Familienmitglieder", etwa #Pachli, #Yuito und #Husky.
Tusky weist viele Funktionen auf, unterstützt etwa auch vorgeplante Beiträge und bietet die Unterstützung für mehrere Konten. Auch die Pflege des eigenen Profils ist direkt über Tusky möglich.

Auf mastodonium.de wurde das Projekt eines deutschsprachigen Handbuchs zu Tusky begonnen, befindet sich allerdings im mehr oder weniger extremen Rohbau... ;-)

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I have mixed feelings about the social/community implications of shared block lists.
It's essentially social blacklisting, and while it gives people more options for controlling what they see, I'm not entirely convinced it's healthy compared to manual blocking of users and servers on an individual level.
It really helps communities of people who get harassed regularly. This feature not being on mastodon was a big reason the blacksky community formed based on bluesky. They tried fedi first but desperately need these types of controls to keep from getting called slurs.

Was die Deutschen bezüglich #Technologieoffenheit im Heizungskeller tun, trotz massiver Desinformationskampagne. Zu viele in Politik und Medien verwechseln die Bots und Trolle auf X mit der echten Stimmungs- und Meinungslage im Land

God this website needs inline spoilers already! I can’t remember what happens in S02E03, but more people definitely need to watch Medalist!
Did some research and promptly found everyone swearing by Gear Aid Tenacious Tape as pure magic for torn nylon.
We will see. I ordered some to try tomorrow and am optimistic from the reviews. The tear is inside with plenty of margin between it and the zipper, so at least it won’t be an eyesore on the outside of an otherwise seemingly durable and visually “like new” jacket.
In case you’ve also never heard of the tape and have a need:
@halfpress oh cool! i had no idea this existed. i've got a very similar tear in my MEC down parka. am eager to hear if this works - especially if it can survive the washing machine
Most people are at church because they want to see their friends, eat food and sing and listen to music.
I think that's fine. Some churches also think this is fine, but even those that do not KNOW that's their real function. They help form community, help people when someone dies, or is sick or is born, and create community.
"Do you live like Christ or just talk about it?" (something my grandma would say)
@futurebird @MaddieM4 right, at their least corrupted churches/temples/sacred gatherings of any sort can cover all the functions for some/many folks: social, cultural and offer some spiritual direction and energy for doing good works in the world.
But so many millions of us have been materially harmed by…well you know.
Edit: the information on SpaceX-related issue seems to be based on a tweet from Hawaii Department of Transportation that is no longer there. Hawaii DoT seems to not have offered any explanation.

Seriously?..
All West Coast US flights also now halted because of ‘debris from SpaceX launch’

@rysiek check out the editor's note on the article you linked.
Yeah, it sounds like Hawaii officials botched this, maybe understandable in the confusion surrounding the FAA ground stop.
It never made sense to announce a halt to flights over rocket debris thousands of miles away, and I wish reporters had immediately flagged that issue since a lot of people seem to run with the story.
