#Mastodon #introduction #quantum

One thing wie can look forward to is #Bonfire bonfirenetworks.org/

Their blog has some nice information about the progress of the platform
bonfirenetworks.org/blog/

There are several threads in Fediverse that show how we can better interact with the community. This is a good development.

💟 Happy #Valentine's Day from @KronoMoonPhotos & @KronoMoon! 💟

We are exactly 1 #Gregorian #month away from #March's #FullMoon — the #WormMoon, the #TotalLunarEclipse, and the #Night of the #KrononautMoon — when we attempt to make contact with #TimeTravelers.

There have been such attempts in the past, but this time will be the first ever #global #decentralized effort. We call this type of event version 2.0, or what one might call the #Fediversion!

#TimeTravelers are invited to visit or send a #quantum #signal to us on the night of the #Total #Lunar #Eclipse. #2025Mar14 will be the first of 3 #TLEs in the next year. Everyone, your friends, family, colleagues, #pets, and of course your #sweetheart are invited to participate however you like. Just venture out under the #Moon on Thursday &/or Friday night. #Fire up a #candle, a #bonfire, a #drumcircle or other greeting for #beings in the #beyond. Together we can become one with the #cosmos.

I think an amazing feature would be to let people easily peer role based ACL memberships between software.

basically "what if SCIM, but across fediverse stuff?"

like, if you have a bunch of users on discord, but you want to seamlessly line up their roles with one on github, it sucks.

but maybe it could be AWESOME in something like #bonfire + #forgejo , or #opencollective + #vervis

and maybe you could accomplish this with the basic FEP SSO stuff we have around right now, or basic OIDC/Oauth,

but it would be super neat to communicate updates in group membership across activitypub.

is it just re-inventing SCIM/PAM? sure. but would it be awesome? also yes.

it should probably communicate the fedi handle, not the user's email, for privacy reasons.

imagine being able to join /one/ of /any/ community tools, and the process letting you swap between using many peripheral tools (having it only work inside e.g. @bonfire would lock things down too much, vs bidirectional grouping in e.g. #metagov )

Now that I got some fond memories of #typescript (read: Stockholm Syndrome), I sort of want to build stuff with #fedify. 😅

Though what I *really* want is an option like it for #ElixirLang. Maybe a project for the new year. 🤔

Not like we don't have #Akkoma, #Bonfire, #Pleroma, and #Mobilizon as examples of what could be a standard library. 😄

Continued thread

SWF's mission talks about a "growing, healthy" Fediverse, but their initial plans don't seem to be paying much attention to the "healthy" part. For example:

  • @socialwebfdn's initial list of projects doesn't include anything addressing current Fediverse safety issues.

    • As far as I know, none of SWF's advisors are safety experts, and @iftas' @jaz is the only one of their launch partners who has a history of prioritizing safety.
    • SWF's list of launch partners doesn't included software projects like #GoToSocial, #Bonfire, and #Letterbook that are prioritizing safety
    • #Meta's involvement with SWF adds to the concerns -- as I discuss in more detail in the post

The Nexus Of Privacy · DRAFT: Will the Social Web Foundation prioritize safety?Work in progress! Feedback welcome!

We are extremely proud to announce our Content Classification Service is up and running, with our first classifier active. We are starting with detecting child sexual abuse media for our opt-in connected servers, and our plan is to introduce additional classifiers over time, including non-consensual intimate imagery, terroristic and violent extremist content, malicious URLs, spam, and more.

For the time being we are operating in a closed test with a very small number of servers, and we have a slate of additional server admins ready to participate in our beta. You can learn more – and sign up to participate – on the CCS Web page.

In other news, we are kicking off an exciting collaborative with the Bonfire Networks developer team.

Bonfire is a governance-first community platform using ActivityPub, and the developer team are interested in reviewing proposals from the moderator community for rapid iteration of evidence-based, prosocial tooling and workflow in a co-design effort with the moderator community.

The Bonfire team have already rapidly adopted several proposals including:

  • greyscaling and blurring media in reported content – this reduces trauma for moderators reviewing harmful content
  • muting audio in media files – no sudden noises, loud volume or traumatic audio for the moderation workflow
  • removing clickable links from reported content and suggesting URL investigation tools – this reduces the chance of moderators clicking through to phishing, malware, and other harmful web sites

Our IFTAS Connect community is working to provide additional feedback, and anyone is free to suggest additional feedback on the Bonfire GitHub.

This is a fantastic opportunity for the Fediverse’s trust and safety community to interactively guide the development of modular tooling that we hope will not only benefit Bonfire communities but can benefit the ecosystem at large, through modular adoption of the tooling, Fediverse Enhancement Proposals, or other platforms incorporating the same evidence-based prosocial approaches to empowering community managers and moderators.

We urge all IFTAS Connect moderator members to join us in the Moderator Tooling Workgroup and tell us all the tools, features and functions you want to see added to keep you and your community safe!

Lastly, a huge thank you to everyone who has responded to our community support drive, we’ve raised over $2,000 this year in direct community support and our IFTAS First 50 page is filling up! As we head into giving season, a quick reminder IFTAS is a 501c3, all donations are tax-deductible for US supporters, and we accept a wide range of support. If you can, donate today to keep supporting our mission!

Social network come bene comune: il caso Bonfire Networks

Oggi possiamo "considerare definitivamente fallito l’esperimento di connettere persone e idee attraverso i social network, abbandonarli e lasciare che gli algoritmi finiscano di consumare l’attenzione e la dopamina degli utenti ancora attivi. Oppure, possiamo immaginare social network che non solo funzionino in modo diverso, ma che siano anche costruiti e governati con modalità e fini differenti."

2/3 second, it illustrates that this has already been a very rich and productive exchange, so thank you!

third, it highlights functionality for scientific exchange that I wish we had built in. That's worth highlighting because there are people in the fediverse working on such things like @ronent and next week is #fediforum2024 #fediforum where I hope there will be discussion of such issues and developments, including what the #Bonfire are doing with the openscience.network
