(Since this is getting traction, a slight edit to add a reminder that we're using many different devices, platforms, and apps - This is my experience and YMMV, but you're a smart person, you can figure it out 👍🏻)

Hey Tooters - If you are linking to YouTube videos, don’t use the “Share” function in YouTube to generate the link. Copy and paste the URL from your address bar.

Using the “Share” function generates a generic preview in Mastodon, whereas cutting and pasting the actual URL gives a nice preview for the video, including the title.

The preview for my image below might be cropped in your browser, click to see the comparison.

ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture), OSS (Open Sound System), PulseAudio, and PipeWire are key components in the evolution of audio management in Linux-based systems. Each represents a step in the ongoing effort to provide better, more efficient, and more flexible sound support for users and developers.

As far as I'm aware, it's a limitation of ActivityPub and there's no way to fix it on either the user's or admin's side. Unless the post is local to my instance, I find it best to open the source and view it from there if I'm curious about the stats. From my Pleroma account, I see 5 repeats and only 1 favourite, while from Misskey, I see 7 renotes and two reactions.

I dont know how to view the original. Im on mstdn.social site. The ellipses don't have an option for viewing it on it's own instance.

Is there a way to force update a post for this instance? I could have sworn there was.

I know you can force-federate a remote post but I think that's only if the local instance hasn't encountered it before. It's been a while since I ran Mastodon so something might have been added, but it would still be a manual process admins would have to do for every post. If it was user-facing, the feature could easily be taken advantage of and used to DOS other instances.

I'm *thinking* you can middle- or control- or right-click > Copy Link the timestamp to open it on the remote instance. It's been a while, so I don't remember all of Mastodon's oddities though. Misskey and Pleroma both just have buttons for it

This really makes me want to move to Friendica, or at least something not Mastodon. I hate how limited the text and formatting options are, even though ActivityPub supports proper HTML posts.
in reply to Shrutarshi Basu

@basus i understand but I wouldn’t recommend moving to Friendica… its infrastructure is not as solid or reliable as Mastodon… i mostly use it to read/consume content - it’s the perfect Fediverse content hub

The infrastructure and resilience of a software also depends on the resources that the server on which the software runs makes it available. CPU power, amount of RAM, disk space available for the database and bandwidth can make a lot of difference. The most powerful hardware resources come at a cost that not everyone can afford in the long run, especially those who host self-hosted instances.

Friendica, like Wordpress and many other application software, is written in PHP, a scripting or programming language interpreted and not compiled like Rust. As a result it is slower. Below in the link are some guidelines for system engineers to make PHP a little more efficient.

How to export a files from a tar, into a smaller one?


I have a big tar.bz pkg

And I want to export few files I need, to make it smaller.

But to keep times, owners and so on, untouched.

How can I export, let say, configs from a pkg? To make a small tar, but only with configs.

Although not much since we are also severely underfunded, TROM is donating 10 Euros a month to Yunohost donate.yunohost.org/ and is encouraging you to do the same if you use Yunohost and can afford. Let's hope more people support these projects.

Improvements for TROM.tf :

Our TROM Social first page (login) is not anymore just an empty page with a simple login, it provides you a peek into the fediverse:

Now you can see what's going on on the network, maybe to convince you to join :). It took a lot of CSS and HMTL gymnastics to achieve this. From my tests on desktop with mobile emulators all looks good on mobile, but for some reason when I check it on my phone it does not look as it should....I shall investigate.

Implemented some dark toggles for some of our services, where it was doable, such as Call

Search

Speed

And made our TROM Call, Jitsi Meet, more reliable.

Lastly we spent many days trying to figure out how to make our Peertube Live work better. Hours of tests, lots of logs. Hopefully we can make it more reliable.
