Newbie questions


Hi !Friendica Support,
I'm not finding much documentation about following and connecting.
Is this how it works:
If the only relationship between A and B is that A follows B, then:
- A is a fan and follower of B.
- A and B are not considered connected.
- There is a unilateral friendship between A and B.

If B also follows A, then:
- A and B are considered connected.
- There is a mutual/bilateral friendship between A and B.

Also, from this page:

When you receive a friendship notification from another Friendica member, you will have the option of allowing them as a "Follower" or as a "Friend". If they are a follower, they can see what you have to say, including private communications that you send to them, but not vice versa. As a friend, you can both communicate with each other.

How do you cause a “friendship notification” to be sent? What form does it take when it arrives? I've been experimenting with 2 accounts, but have not seen a friendship notification.

Thank you,
Dirk

Hi Dirk. It depends on the account type and network. For example my Fendica account is setup to accept all friends requests as "followers". So I get no notification when someone adds me as a friend. But if you follow a Mastodon account, and yo are on Friendica, perhaps they get a notification.

In Friendica you can tweak these things a lot. Let me know if you have more questions.

Thank you @Tio
Two more questions:

1. How do I set up my Friendica account to accept all friend requests as "followers"? And what are the other options?

2. I told my sister to take these steps in order to follow me:
a. Go to Contacts
b. Type my info in the “Add new contact” field and click Connect
c. On the page that comes up, click Submit request
She followed the instructions, and without any input from me, we are now mutual friends. Why didn't Friendica ask for my approval?

Thanks for the help!

@Dirk Maas @Tio Go to settings>account>advanced account type. Unless you have standard, you wont need to approve everyone if they want to follow you. love-all will make them all friends, soapbox will make them all followers.

Thank you @anubis2814! I just checked and my account type is standard. But with my sister it acted like it was love-all. I'm not sure how to explain that, but I'll keep an eye on things going forward.

in reply to Dirk

Hm I see. Is your sister also using friendica and on the same server?

in reply to Tio

@Tio Yes, also using Friendica and on the same server.

I see. So you didn't get a notification when she added you as a friend/follow but when I did you received. Interesting. Maybe was it that you already had her in your list of friends? Just checking...

Friendica Support reshared this.

in reply to Tio

No, she was not on any list – I knew she had an account, but that's all. I had tried to find her account, but could not.

Two unexpected things happened: (1) She became a follower of mine without any notification to me or input from me, and (2) I became a follower of her – again without any action taken on my part.

in reply to Dirk

We have some issues with the latest update of our Friendica perhaps. Maybe these are related...I will dig deeper.

in reply to Dirk

  1. Yes @anubis2814 is right. You can change it form there.
  2. It depends what kind of account you have. Maybe you have it setup to accept all friends requests by default. Please check that. And by the way to add someone as a contact is even easier: use the top search bar and paste someone's profile (url or name). Enter. Now you can submit a friend request. I just clicked to follow you did you get any notification?

in reply to Dirk

@Dirk Maas As far as I've ever seen its just A follows you. Following and friendship are the same thing. Though you can both follow and ignore someone too.

Here's a terribly depressing documentary - videoneat.com/documentaries/26…

About how boats with immigrants are sent back, capsized, and so on, just to prevent them from reaching Europe. Treating people like pigs used for consumption. Like meat.

But don't worry we have laws in place to prevent this....

#immigration #migrants #greece #europe


Newly added documentary on VideoNeat.com:

Dead Calm: Killing in the Med?

Are masked men responsible for people dying as they try to cross the Mediterranean? This film reveals the dark secret hidden behind the beauty of Greece’s holiday islands.

Watch it here:

Yes...if people want to be scared or terrified, and pissed off, at least be at reality. Fucking awful situation....
in reply to Tio

@esh

I generally agree with the sentiment that reality is far more interesting than fiction, but horror movies are different tho. Only reason I'm able to enjoy watching horror movies is 'cause I know it's just acting and that the people are safe, but if you show me footage of actual people dying that will make me depressed 💀

Horror is one of those rare genres that's better enjoyed as fiction 😅 'cause real horror is just sad and depressing, none of this shit should be happening 😞

hm this looks very interesting despite being made a while ago
in reply to Tio

Yes Tio, I think you would enjoy it.
He was like the Spanish Attenboroguh back then, with a very peculiar and refined way of talking that made him very popular. He and his team were quite innovative in terms of making documentaries back in the seventies and presumably wil have inspired others later, like the bbc.
Also he would share social scientific values in his videos, like in this excerpt:
youtu.be/IhtAaiEpue4?si=5NeDdd…


The idiots on planet Earth, busy with their dramas, hate, divisions, borders, competition. While they have global problems and common needs.

Their most popular news and activities should be about the wonderful rock they are lucky to be on. The creatures, the places, themselves. There are entire universes inside all of us. Inside even a single cell. There are endless stars and planets out there.

Intelligent species you say!?

Show must go on! The Caesar Roman general was nearly assassinated so now we can gossip, talk, debate, and be busy with this story for months or years. Some empire attacked another killing hundreds of thousands. Have you heard about the wife of the emperor cheating on him?

2024 is the same as 2024 BC. Same shit. Wars, conflicts, gossip, decimation of other creatures and destruction of the environment.

Same idiots, only that now we have internet, electricity and airplanes.

History

Underlying rights
beneath ideas like
freedom
equality under the law
rule of law
we find community
You
Me
and all our masks
and stories.
Wise elders of yore
devised ritual
stomping into Earth,
in communion
with planet, land
of ancestors, sacred lore.
I see your face,
study the lines and lessons
life has given.
Do you see the scarlet
streams of suffering
so unnecessary
missed cues,
fear itself,
unexpected consequences,
collateral damage?
If life were simple
childish agonies
dispelled with dawn’s
bright kiss,
we would laugh
so happy to know
cross-purposes, cross-talk
easily sorted out in counsel.
Cast into sorted cells
with little thought to empowering;
we could harness the Sun, Moon,
birth of the planets,
simply
allowing our minds to grow.

Unfortunately things are looking really grim right now for the world.... Man I hope we get through this without blowing each other up.... 😅

A lot of the things happening around us prove that people are seriously lacking good education and a sense of nuance.



For the past several months no one could install flatpaks from our Trade-Free TROMjaro app Library - tromjaro.com/apps/ - and now we finally fixed it thanks to @Rokosun ! One click installs :)

We have curated around 700 trade-free apps for the library and we plan to add a lot more the following months. Check it out!
