Hi, @thomas
I wanted to thank you (since 2017!) for the bug you reported about POSH: https://issues.prosody.im/1060
I realized some time ago that the corresponding module has been published:
https://modules.prosody.im/mod_s2s_auth_posh.html
Are you deploying it in @trashserver already?
If you have a #FreeSoftware project, please use a Free Software solution such as #weblate for translating the app, manual or documentations.
Today, I just tried to help #Briar for its Persian translation on Transifix (which is a non-free solution). It doesn't recognize numbers in other languages! Crowdin also is not much better in such cases.
Free Software community deserves to be provided Free Software solutions for their contributions.
Mobilizon Releases Beta, Demo Instance
The anticipated federated alternative to MeetUp makes its first public release. https://wedistribute.org/2019/11/mobilizon-releases-beta-demo-instance/

Earlier, Iranian along with people from Syria, Sudan, N.Korea and Cuba suffered from #github. today, people in Venezuela lost their access to #adobe products. What would be the next?
Avoid proprietary solutions (either as software or service) if you don't want to be digitally insulted.
More and more we can see that software freedom is not an option but a necessity. Take this serious.
Nice article for scientists out there:

Is this telegram client in the @snapcraftio store official and trusted? It seems to pass all checks, except that it doesn't have the green tick mark ✅ from the snap store.

Could you please help me @popey?
@z428 @reticuleena @khaosgrille @luricaun Weil das in die Richtung "Arme Banken, die sich nicht anders zu helfen wissen" geht. Das fand ich nicht einer Antwort würdig. ;-P
Wäre es gesetzlich geregelt, das Bank (u.a.) einen nicht zu einem US-Konzern (oder zur Akzeptierung jedweder Drittanbieter-AGB) drängen darf, fände sich da sicher sehr sehr schnell ne Lösung.
#Windows hides #LibreOffice when you search for it in the start menu entries, while it easily brings up #Microsoft Office if you search #Word.
@masoud @PlumeDev @Mastodon though my account is not closed but I myself try to avoid proprietary platform for contributing #FreeSoftware projects.
I try to motivate others to do the same
I believe the solution is to have federated git services (letting fork repo, open issue and send PR/MR independent of where your account is made. Some are working on #forgrfed project for the same goal @forgefed
A few weeks ago I posted here that the #decentralized blogging platform @PlumeDev had some of its right-to-left (RTL) rendering issues fixed by @ahangarha. I myself had also fixed many little CSS issues related to #RTL for @Mastodon in the past.
Well, expect such kinds of things to happen less often in the future, since #GitHub has mass-blocked many accounts of Iranians* at various levels; This applies not only to Iranian residents, but also sometimes to Iranians living abroad.
* And not only for #Iran, but also for #Cuba, #Syria, #NorthKorea, and #Crimea.

The fediverse blogging platform #Plume @PlumeDev has now basic support for #RTL (right-to-left) languages like #Persian, #Arabic, and #Hebrew 🎉 🎆 👏
Thank you @ahangarha for your important work and other developers for their nice support 😀

One of the things I've realized lately is how, even if you don't want to self-host your services, how incredibly cheap it is to have private communication- email, instant messenger, calendar, file hosting, etc.
All without tracking and without ads for less per month than people pay for streaming services.
In the past couple of months I have been using Replicant on a Galaxy S II phone as my daily driver and I'm impressed that it is actually usable. The best part: It comes with @fdroidorg as a system app by default so you don't need to manually update your apps all the time 😀
The only drawback with S2 was its incredibly small battery. So today I freed up my new smartphone with a faster SoC and a battery two times as big: Galaxy Note II 😀
