  • Trust AP

    Mastodon will survive or even thrive in an Eternal September with resiliency. Trust and place your site into the open web.

  • A Federation Challenge

    Issuing a challenge here: adopt the ActivityPub protocol in your organization’s web site Content Management System.

  • city hall on the fedi

    Is there anyone out there that can convince City of Los Angeles ITA to create its own Fediverse system for official city business? Perhaps talk incoming council members or controller to look at this? Use the EU Mastodon system as a model maybe? ActivityPub is the future.

  • all yall

    All you macaw tweeps could have been part of the fedi back when it was originally growing up. You’re welcome regardless but it would really have been nice to have had your help pre-acquisition.

  • caching

    added some basic caching, in response to this earlier post. to sum up, in WordOps I updated to the most recent WordOps release, ran wo site update riffic.rocks –wpfc, ran wo stack install –redis, and installed a redis object cache plugin.

  • public sector Fediverse

    It’s time to bug your elected officials to investigate use of the #ActivityPub protocol to publish their public service announcements and otherwise participate in the Federated Social Web directly from their own web infrastructure rather than being involved in questionable commercial services.

  • rss feeds

    Apologies folks I still haven’t set up RSS feed syndication for things like https://onewilshire.la/@BikeLAredditors or any of the other subreddit twitter feeds I run. It’ll happen but I had to back-burner this for a bit due to other obligations.

  • hey folks please don’t DDoS or hug-o-death my site yet

    I haven’t set up a page cache yet and I’m afraid my poor little VPS is going to tip over. Note to self, please set up a page cache following whatever best practices exist for a WordOps managed WP site.

Got any book recommendations?
