Anyone interested to try diaspora debian package on a server for some days and let people play with it?

Instructions are here https://wiki.debian.org/Diaspora#Buster_Fasttrack.2Fpersonal_repo

A good way to contribute that does not require a lot of technical skills. Familiarity with command line and installing packages with apt is all you need.

I'm happy to help if you need support. See https://poddery.com/posts/5702084 for the background.

Alternatively, if you cannot afford to buy a server, you can try this locally on your machine, say in an lxc container or in a virtual machine, though other people will not be able to access it. We hope to include diaspora package as part of Freedom Box if we can fix all the known issues.

Since leaving Google+ I have used these social media sites

I found Twitter to be full of snowflakes and deleted my account.

MeWe is OK but you feel like you are in a walled garden.

Returned to Facebook but mainly to take the piss out of my little sister.

Had a post deleted by Pinterest which they claimed was hateful activity (What me?)

I feel like I'm in the wilderness on Tumblr and Deviant art but I have not had the time to put much effort into it.

Diaspora (Pluspora) is excellent with a healthy mix of talented and intelligent people

YouMe Social, the baby of the group has improved greatly over time and is a very good alternative to Google+

I'm even on "Keen" An experimental product from Area12 and Pair at Google but not sure anyone has any idea what it is all about

Ssup, guys. Does anyone know a Diaspora user named Palantír? If anyone knows how I can contact him, please do tell. I just want to say hi and some other stuff. Our D* conversation kinda ended abruptly, so I wanna wrap things up.
.

---

Story:

There was this guy on Diaspora who went by the name Palantír. We used to message each other a lot back then in 2017 till 2018 until one day, he suddenly left Diaspora. Last I heard, he was going hiking. I checked his profile a few weeks later and saw that he was no longer using Diaspora. He did leave behind an e-mail on his profile, in case anyone needed to contact him.

It's a pity I did not save that e-mail because throughout his absence, I have been thinking of him. Every time I see certain objects or certain images, I'd think of him. I contemplated on e-mailing him back then when he had just left Diaspora, but my contemplation was prolonged by my own painful experiences of friendship, and further topped off with life events (2016-2018 were my traumatic and hellish years). In the end, all I did was contemplate, sigh.

Only yesterday did I make my decision to contact him, but suddenly my family from out of town dropped by and I was occupied by them. So, this morning, I decide to resume my life and look for Palantír's e-mail on his profile, but I see his account has been closed. Can't click it. Now there is really no way for me to contact him.

If anyone knows him and how I can contact him, please do tell. I just want to say hi and some other stuff. Our D* conversation kinda ended abruptly, so I wanna wrap things up.

I don't even know what hashtag to use.

After many years of packaging work by many contributors, yesterday I was able to install #diaspora native debian package.

Out of 101 direct dependencies and 223 total dependencies (if you consider build dependencies for JavaScript assets like grunt, gulp, rollup, webpack, babel etc, the actual number required to build everything from source is much larger - in Debian, we build every package in main section from source), only 8 of them needed to be handled outside of debian packages.

• autprefixer-rails gem had to be installed from rubygems.org because debian does not have browserify packaged and building with rollup and webpack created a broken bundle.
• active_model_serializers had to be installed from rubygems.org because debian had a newer incompatible version.
• 6 gems had to be vendored because diaspora is still using sass-rails which is dead upstream and debian already moved to sassc-rails.
• I still need to integrate systemd unit files to handle starting and stopping of the services automatically.
• There is also issues in ui, possibly because of broken builds in front end javascript libraries. I can see errors in the browser web console.

If you'd like to help test it, follow https://wiki.debian.org/Diaspora#Buster_Fasttrack.2Fpersonal_repo

If any of you are good in #nodejs #javascript or #ruby #rails, I'd appreciate some help to fix these remaining issues.

If you are good in #devops #sysadmin you can help test the package or help with running diaspora in production (we also have a diaspora-installer package that installs all dependencies from rubygems.org. We are running this package in production for many years at https://poddery.com and https://diasp.in).

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this effort over many years.

Hello and a big welcome

to everyone new to diaspora\*

We're so pleased that you've decided to give diaspora\* a try. It's fantastic that you've joined us!

We hope that you quickly find your way here, and enjoy getting connected with people and content.

Here's a few tips for getting started:

• There are some step-by-step tutorials on our project website covering the basics of how diaspora* works, and how to get connected with people. There's a link to these in the side-bar, should you ever want to read them in future, and there's also an in-app Help section you can access through your user menu (at the right-hand end of the header bar).
• You can search for people by name or by diaspora* ID (which looks like an email address), if you know it, from the search field in the header bar. You can invite people to join you in diaspora* by sending them a link to our project website, from where they can choose their own pod to register with. Your friends don't need to be on the same pod as you in order to connect and communicate with you.
• One good way to start getting connected with people is to start following some #tags of subjects that interest you (maybe #music, #photography, #linux, or #activism ... whatever interests you) so that you will see content on those topics in your stream. You can then start following people whose posts you find interesting, by placing them into one of your aspects.
• If you have any questions, post something with the #question or #help tag, and people will try to help you. Make sure to make your post public so anyone who can help is able to see it!

diaspora\* has some very simple community guidelines, which we hope everyone will feel able to follow so that all members can have the best possible experience here.

We're trying to improve diaspora* all the time, fixing bugs, honing performance and adding new features. But how fast we can do this is limited by the time developers have. To improve diaspora* faster, we need more developers! If you've just signed up and can code, or know someone who can and who might be interested in joining our team, get in touch!

Hey #Diaspora peeps - now that the API has been merged into the develop branch, I was curious about what's required to start poking around with it?

I'm currently setting up a local dev environment, but I have two questions:

• Is there anything special I have to do with regards to generating a token? Basically I'm asking about app registration. I'm aware that the API uses OpenID Connect, or at least it did at one point.
• Is there any documentation available on the current API?

Diaspora Finally Merges in Developer API

diaspora\* version 0.7.13.0 released!

This is an unscheduled update which includes some urgent security fixes, so please update soon. Since the last release, this release collects 67 commits made by 4 contributors. It's only a maintenance release, as you can tell. :)

A huge thanks to all the contributors from diaspora*'s amazing community! If you want to help make diaspora* even better, please check out our getting started guide. Please see the changelog for a complete list of changes made in this release.

Notable Changes

• Fixes USN-4274-1, a potential Denial-of-Service vulnerability in Nokogiri. #8108
• Introduces an automatic cleanup job to remove photos that have been uploaded but never got submitted in a post. #8041
• Removes the dependency to rails-assets.org to prevent installation or upgrade issues when the service is down. #8087

Updating

Podmins, please update your pods as soon as possible. Update instructions are available as usual in the wiki. For those of you who have been testing the release candidate, run git checkout master before the update to get back to the stable release branch.

If you are a user not running your own pod, there is nothing you need to do!

---

This section usually contains dates for upcoming releases, but not this time! We are currently working hard on pushing some awesome new things into the next major version. Because of this ongoing work, we have temporarily suspended our regular minor release cycle. We will update y'all as soon as we have something to update! :)

Diaspora Client Example - Alpha Release

https://github.com/rahealy/diaspora_client_example

What This Is:

A Qt multi-platform example written in C++/QML/JavaScript that hopefully will be useful for those trying to make sense of the OpenID + OAuth specifications, accessing a diaspora pod using the diaspora API, and as code demo.

IMPORTANT: This client example is intended for use as a test of the Diaspora API. It does NOT implement certain OpenID security measures. It does NOT require encrypted (https) endpoints. DO NOT USE THIS CODE IN PRODUCTION.

What This Isn't:

A full fledged library and/or application and/or secure. While it definitely has potential, unless people show interest I'm probably going to turn to other projects.

Diaspora Client Example

This is a continuation on my "couple of days" challenge I'm doing since I have time to kill waiting for replies/rejections to job applications. I skipped Friday because a friend took me out skiing, eating and then I napped. Picked things up on Saturday and have been puttering today.

I need to figure out how to install and set up a development version of a *diaspora pod locally so I can learn how the OpenID + OAuth stuff works. Until then though I've fleshed out a simple UI using Qt and QML:



Background Info:

https://github.com/rahealy/diaspora_client_example

“With the release of the new HTTPS/JSON based diaspora API the author decided as a personal challenge to see how much of a simple client could be written using QTQuick and QML in the span of 1 day, 2 days, and so on.”

I’m going to see how much time it takes to install and configure the various dependencies before starting the clock officially.

Ohai there, friends! Sorry for the bit of silence in the last couple of months, we don't like that either, so we figured it's time to make some noise! A few moments ago, we merged the API branch into develop, which means that starting now, all pods on the develop branch support the new, fancy API!

Note that this is not a stable release yet. Until diaspora\* 0.8.0.0 is officially released, this API is not considered stable, and we might change things at any time without notice to improve usability and stability. We plan on reaching a stable point once we push 0.8.0.0 into release, but we will communicate as soon as we consider the API stable. Consider it experimental until then. :)

Please do check out the API documentation if you want to know what you can do with the API, and how to use it. We're looking forward to your ideas, and we're curious what you will build with it.

If you had plans for an application using the API, now is a great time to start working on that. We know that we said the API is not stable yet, and that's true, but your feedback will help to improve the API and polishing it for a stable release. If you do find bugs where diaspora* does not behave like you'd expect from reading the API documentation, please file a bug on diaspora* so we can iron that out. If you have an idea for an improvement or you think we should change something within the API, please open a bug on the API documentation. For all other kinds of questions and input regarding the API, we created a new category on Discourse, so please join us there! :)

Happy hacking!

Hey, #diaspora, I need your help. Or rather, your collective knowledge. I'm working on a ~~blog post~~ essay and plan-of-action about diaspora\*s rather horrible performance. To make a point, I'll have some databases run against each other in a controlled environment with a real-world-database dump (i.e., Geraspora's database).

For me to have a chance to consider as many things as possible, I need you to throw your favorite databases that could store data like the things used in diaspora (profiles, posts, relations between those entities, ...) at me. It doesn't matter what kind, I'm okay with relational databases, document-oriented databases, elves looking at tape with giant magnifiers, .. everything is fine.

There are only a couple of rules:

• It needs to be a piece of software that can be installed on servers, not a hosted service.
• The software you are proposing has to be free and open-source software, without limitations for commercial use. I'm okay with clauses that prohibit commercial reselling, but using the database has to be unrestricted.
• The database has to run on Linux. Support for other platforms is a nice-to-have, but no must.
• The software must run on "low-end" servers without significant limitations. I'll run my tests on a VM with 2 GiB of RAM and two 2.9 GHz CPU cores.
• The software should be considered stable. I'm not too interested in looking at experimental ideas. They're nice, but they don't fit the scope.

To submit, please

* check if your idea has already been submitted before doing anything.
* post the name and a link to the project's official website in the comments below.
* reach out to me on a different channel if you can't comment below this post.
* comment in the original post if you see this as a reshare.

Please keep this post's comment section free from anything that's not a suggestion. Please use this post for everything else.

Zugegeben, ich hatte nicht viel Zeit und bin auch kein Grafiker - aber wurde von ein paar in der Firma drauf angesprochen,
dass es da ein Plakat gebe, wo die gleiche Url wie auf meinem drauf stehen würde.

Ich finde es ganz Lustig...
