Or perhaps a star trek analogy

Fediverse = United Federation of Planets

Fb, Twitter etc = Borg

Could be a starting point to get these services on here to help people.

I have seen several posts from people how to run their own instances. I don't know much about this directly but I would guess a basic / advanced knowledge of the GNU / Linux command like is probably up there among the skills needed.

So to this end, I am sharing the link below to my own blog , where I have linked to a series of you tube videos on the Linux BASH interface, there are addition parts of this series which I put together as I was asked about cyber security at the code club I rub, so collected some videos that help build up some pre- requisite skills.

It would be great if we could have series such as this native on peertube, in the meantime we can either use Youtube directly or via a front end e.g invideous

Perhaps we can work on a better list to help people with the skills needed for hosting / running Mastodon instances

@aeva @cwebber

Ah, :)

But we can discuss how the services work and can be improved, but that may be on a different forum.

@cwebber @fossandcrafts

You are going to have a lot to talk about in the next episode if the topic is Mass migration to Mastodon

@axbom Great work, thank you.
I assume this is released under some sort of free license such as creative commons, are you perhaps able to make it clear how this can be used please.

Just makes it easer, and saves people asking you.

@cwebber I think the difference is you can go to sites such as

https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/

and discuss how the Fediverse is developed, and be part of the processes that can make it better.

Tech Jobs and Big Data

I can't remember where I got the graphic below from. However given we on the Feiverse are not interested in collecting data from users, advertising etc Are there any implications for these jobs

If more people come here and in doing so start the move to shun big tech, big data this could potentially lead to serious problems for those who collect data on us and those who strive to develop the technology that does so.

@sitharus

The internet was more fun back then, granted people didnt tolerate if you asked a question without looking it up, or typed caps in to IRC but people were really helpful.

Would be great to grab some of that back, and doing so without ads, tracking etc would be great.

@killyourfm @nextcloud

I would talk to @freemo who runs the qoto server he is running several services inc nextcloud and peertube.

@vmaderna Nice, welcome to mastodon,

The more users we have, the more varied the content, maybe add some tags to posts though e.g

#art #drawing #painting etc depending on the type of art, it makes it easier for others to find and share similar content.
