Good morning Fedi friends,

@paulk I always say that GoToSocial is the hidden gem of the fediverse
-
@_elena @elena cool. And you having an admin account probably means there can be other accounts as well right? So you van host family and ftiends?
I am just trying to Asses if I set up gotosocial, what functionality it will and wont have in practice interacting with mastodonten users. Theres little documentation I could find on that.@hanscees yes of course! typically it works best for solo accounts or a small family cluster. The documentation is actually pretty great: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/v0.22.1/

@seedsignal @_elena In the early days of the internet (afaik, from reading other blogs. Romania never had this), some ISPs used to include a small hosting space with your internet subscription.
Also, I don't think Neocities / Nekoweb counts as "social media" with those laws. Soo... you know...

@patricus @_elena I also think a lot of Mastodon instances will say a big FU to any age verification laws and continue to operate like normal, and if governments try to intervene then they'll fight back until it starts to hurt the governments more than the community. Basically akin to a digital riot, where the governments are crippled and cannot continue the effort.

Good morning Fedi friends,
I have been feeling a rising anxiety over the state of the open web and the fediverse - after seeing efforts by politicians all over the world (in Europe too!) to introduce age verification laws for social media.
My way of coping?
Teaching people how to self-host their own Fediverse profile (using the superb #GoToSocial) via #YunoHost.

@alexchapman @_elena it can't happen, sadly with what is happening it's gonna be more and more strict soon we'll land in Russia-levels of bullshit.

@_elena this helps for the individual - but not for the once running an instance for others....
I really hope this social media ban, like in France now, is only "for the big ones".In theory: the Fediverse is a big one too:
- 13.8M Accounts in total
- but only 1,141,317 active Acounts.
(source: @fedidb)If the numbers are for each server, most of us don't have to suffer anything. If it's the (complete) Fediverse, and it makes sense to see it that way, we are doomed too.
Unfortunately, most laws are either worded so vaguely that it's up to the regulator's discreation (the Online Services Act in the UK for example) or explicitly apply to sites of all sizes and maybe have some handwaving language along the lines of requiring networks to deploy age verification methods that are "commercially reasonable".
It's certainly not a good situation, and anxiety is very warranted, but I don't think we're necessarily doomed. In the short term, VPNs are a thing and can buy us some time (although as we're seeing in the UK, age-limiting VPNs is the next step).
What I do think is that we have to mobilize to fight these kinds of bad internet bills more effectively. Here's a thread with some initial thoughts and a request for other suggestions - https://neuromatch.social/@jdp23/116967043175194824
