Just for the people interested in mbin, here are a few magazine/community pointers:

• !mbinReleases@gehirneimer.de
• !updates@kbin.melroy.org
• !mbinmeta@gehirneimer.de

Glad I couldbe oh any help 😇

Glad it works again :)

I mean you can always just setup a testing magazine on any instance or just ones that are already there like !Test@gehirneimer.de

Federation is really limited though

I am part of the mbin team and I am really tired of hearing shittalking about us without any reason. Nobody has any reason to call us anything but passionate.

When melroy started the fork, really weird accusations were thrown around without being based on anything…

AP has a tool for that called inbox forwarding and mastodon uses it for sharing the comments under posts. It works like this: you send a reply to a user with their follower collection as the recipient. You of course cannot know who is following that user, however they than just forward this reply to the follower collection, because the server knows that it has authority over that collection. https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/#inbox-forwarding

Its not really a “not playing well” with each other, it is just the mastodon works. That is the reason why most toots in my mastodon timeline have 0 favourites (upvotes) and only a few boosts… I don’t know why they do it, because at the minimum the followers of that user should be notified about that like…

I promise that I will never just suddenly vanish unless I actually die 😅

I actually have a LiberaPay, Patreon and Kofi page and only 3 people have donated so far. And those accounts are also used to take donations for my 2 mbin servers and my mid sized mastodon server (>100 “real” MAU)…
