Une fois pour TOOT ! A mastodon in Brussels

Flemish is a national variety of the Dutch language as spoken in Belgium.

That said, if you want to moderate German, @agnez, we can add it to the list!

I could, but I say that only because I hope that there is close to nothing to do!

What does moderating on mastodon mean? Should you follow content actively or only be there for complaints?

I guess that would be for complaints. I don’t see anyone following all contents all the time.

Shutting down Mastodon?

It’s been a bit more than a year that we’ve been running Mastodon on ps.s10y.eu. A few days ago, the service stopped because it grew wild and ate up the available disk space. It’s not a lot, but as we had other things to do, I moved on a slow lane to restore it on a larger server (the assets copy still runs).

Four days without Mastodon brought @natacha and I a lot of peace of mind. One thing we found is that the endless feed of news, be it on Twitter or Mastodon, does not bring much to our community, while not having it does not break up the community either.

How have you been doing in this last few days?
Did you use other Mastodon instances?

Soon our Mastodon instance is coming back up, but we’re wondering whether we actually need it. The following poll will close in 15 days. Let’s see how it goes…

  • Keep Mastodon service
  • Close Mastodon service

0 voters

Mastodon is back online. Still moving some assets.

I moved it to a stronger server.

What’s new?

  • You can now register your profile to the public directory that allows people to find your account more easily based on your tags, labels, etc.

but it’s great to have a local social media (at least manage by locals…)
maybe it’s something else thats is needed, something less passive than tweets/toots system, sthg that help to communicate/organise (because you’re right, news create fear nowadays, and fear passivity,…) actually news are maybe not essential, we basically already know enough to engage…

Merci Vincent :slight_smile:

I’m not concerned about fear, but by drifting away from the original intent.

Sorry I will not vote here I generally do not vote for things and do not like voting processes.
As I said on Mastodon, never had ̷̑͜F̸͛̿͜á̴̜͍k̶̡̺̃̈́e̵̲̬̎b̶̹̄̏o̵̖̾͘o̶͘ͅz̴͉̺̈́̀ or ̵̻̏T̴͙̾w̵̛̲a̶̐͜t̴̟̍t̵̥̆e̸̱̚r̶̯̈́ account I thought it was out of of disgust for corporations but now after my experience of Mastodon, I think social media in itself is toxic.
I think spending time behind a keyboard is not a social experience, It probably makes sense for developpers but in my point of view not as a general social experience; for that we have bars, face to face is a lot better, for information: we have newspapers, and community led projects such as
https://talk.incommon.cc or here (I mean this forum) inhabited by a couple hundred users and where everyone is welcome to start a structured conversation, would be real great to see u around more often @alt241
My conclusion on a few monthes of Mastodon experience, i the feeling of a shower of unstructured info, non searchable information, that takes out much time a lot better spent walking in the parc and interacting with one’s neighbourghs.

I count that as a no. After some discussion we decided that we would keep Mastodon for :ps: announcements, but will refrain from using it otherwise. We don’t even need our own infrastructure for this, so the question is still open (for another 11 days).

J’ai arrêté le service Mastodon afin de faciliter la discussion en cours sur le Mumble.
Si le service vous manque merci de le dire :slight_smile: Il sera de nouveau actif vers 18h00

The mastodon is back! Merci de votre patience (ou plutôt, de votre intérêt dans les éclaircies :sunny: )

Mastodon service is back. Some system library update had broken dependencies and the crontab did not operate correctly.

Pour information, le bloquage de mamot.fr est maintenant effectif. Je n’avais pas eu le temps de m’en occuper avant mais c’est chose faite. Merci à @Sylvhem@eldtrich.cafe pour son aide.

Le service est mis à jour et l’espace de stockage a augmenté de 50 GB, passant de 100 à 150 GB. Le coût annuel du service dépasse à présent les 250 €, donc pensez à inaugurer notre compte LiberaPay qui n’a jamais été utilisé depuis 6 ans.
