@paul@paulwilde.uk the sqlite to Postgres path is in the drafts and somehow working, but not that tested, yet, so it'll come. We also have a Postgres to sqlite - you should never be trapped.
@stefano
sorry, bug report: tokodon can't connect this morning:
Impossible de contacter le serveur : Erreur lors de l'ouverture de /api/v1/timelines/home?min_id=01a0b07f-04d1-7358-b9f5-a2eb7c0da697&limit=20 : Aucun fichier ou dossier. Veuillez vérifier votre configuration.
create new fedi instance using littlefedi, if everything is fine maybe I will migrate my gotosocial instance into it.
@fasnix @elperronegro@khumbu.social thanks for the advice. Its the way I'm trending. Much less complicated to run
@epn4littlefedi
Personally, I think it doesn't matter that much to mix such different topics.
I do that too, and a lot :'D
So, I'd be fine if you just use one account.
Important is, I think, to state both realms in your bio, though, so that people interested in following you, can learn about your topics beforehand and decide if they really want to follow you.
After a few teething problems I'm fully up and running and federating at @elperronegro@khumbu.social. Why Khumbu? No, it's not the famous glacier in Nepal, it's a tribute to our last, now dearly departed, husky dog 😄
Before I migrate accounts from https://littleone.littlefedi.social/ however I have a dilemma. Maybe you can advise? I have two main topics that I tend to post about:
- Hiking, Landscape Photography, Mountains etc
- Technology & Self Hosting etc
Very different subject matter. If I use one account for both topics, will I be alienating one group or the other? Would it be better to have two accounts, one for each topic? Or does it really not matter and am I being completely oversensitive?
littlefedi bietet die Möglichkeit, Beiträge auszublenden, deren Fotos und Grafiken keine Bildbeschreibung hinterlegt haben.
Ich habe diese Funktion im Moment nicht aktiviert, werde aber diese Beiträge nicht boosten (Ausnahmen bestätigen die Regel).
Also, strengt euch an! ;)
@chakie@toot.community
I have my domains at all-inkl.com, the longest since 2009, and can recommend using their webhosting.
In case you want to book their services, this is my partner-link:

I'd be happy if you used it :)
@talktech@fedi.talktech.info thank you! I'll create a dedicated Ko-Fi account. Meanwhile, the BSD Cafe one can be used: https://ko-fi.com/bsdcafe
Aloha, Namastee 🙏
Good morning, folks und guten Morgääähn, liebe Follower 🥱
@himysyed Hey @himysyed @fasnix I'd be happy to help. There's a bit of stuff to know for me to give you the best / easiest way to get things going.
- What VPS do you use?
- Do you have other services on the VPS?
- Do you have a reverse proxy like caddy/nginx?
- Do you have to use a web front end to setup anything on the subdomain besides an IP for the DNS entry (like certificates)?
Answer as many of these as you can and we can get it figured out from there. I'd be happy to do a remote / chat session as well. But at the end of it I request both of you write a post (and blog!) about your experience so it can help others coming from your perspective. Let me know!
Good night - Gut's Nächtle ;)
However, I still prefer to learn Esperanto / Dunianto, Lingwa de Planeta, Mini Linga ... ;)
Would love to become fluent in each of them, however ... /o\
Have youever heard of "Viossa - the greatest language mixing experiment in the world"?
What is Viossa?
In 2014 some people joined a Skype call and spoke to each other.
None of them understood anybody else’s language.
They used hand gestures and pictures to communicate.
Their words kept merging until pictures weren’t necessary.
The resulting language was called Viossa.
(they spoke russian, albanian, japanese, greek, finnish, norwegian, and swiss german, among others)
the rules of viossa
● no translation or translation hints
○ “does ... mean ...?” - ❌ not allowed
○ “what does ... mean?” - ❌ not allowed
○ “how do I say ...?” - ❌ not allowed
○ drawing pictures - ✅ allowed!
○ using hand gestures - ✅ allowed!
○writing emojis - ✅ allowed!
● if it’s understood, it’s viossa
○ spelling doesn’t really matter
○ grammar doesn’t really matter
○ pronunciation doesn’t really matter
“idiolect – the dialect of an individual; their differing grammatical, vocabulary, and spelling methods”
Learning viossa is radically different:
lots of people learn languages through dictionaries and grammar packets. in viossa, we ...
● draw pictures and emojis
● use fill-in-the-blanks and dialogue
● ignore grammar whenever we can
● accept that we might not know everything
Acquiring vocabulary:
if you’re not sure what vocab you need, try...
● writing about your day
● describing a situation around you
● writing school assignments
● talking about a book
Do all these things in viossa and try to be aware of what words you don’t know
More learning resources:
after this presentation, keep learning at ...

It sounds so fun to me!
However, I don't use discord or telegram.
I wish, they'd use something like an open discourse forum or similar :-/
