Really strange error running Ecko in docker. No change in the Dockerfile or Gemfile.lock but bundler's complaining that sidekiq isn't installed.

Any docker geniuses out there?

@pixouls It's very playful. I only used vanilla light and dark so far but these extra themes are fun. Probably will help give each server its own feel and identity.

You want themes? We got themes. 😂

Having trouble currently with the latest Ecko docker builds but this is on ecko.magicstone.dev which is managed via YunoHost.

Is there a way to have a user's toots only show up in a list and not in my home timeline?

We've just created a new code repository for Ecko plugins at github.com/magicstone-dev/ecko

If you have any issues implementing your own plugin for Ecko or adapting an existing plugin to your codebase please post them there.

🎉 Happy New Year!! 🎆

A new version of Ecko has just been released on YunoHost. Version 2021-12-27~ynh1 integrates donations through Stripe, adds five new themes, and fixes some issues with import/export of blocklists.

Ecko is Magic Stone's community-driven fork of Mastodon. You can install it via YunoHost at install-app.yunohost.org/?app=, via docker-compose or from source at our repo linked below.

Big thanks to @jorge and @PaulaToThePeople for great feedback and support for Ecko!

@feonixrift My hope is to make a productive yet fun virtual environment for coding and writing. Seems to me attention control is a strength of VR. I'll try to share if I come up with something great.

@feonixrift Alright, here's a quick sample which includes some modded code from the Lovr examples around hand physics.

The window on the left is a notepad-like editor with syntax highlighting. With a bluetooth keyboard connected you can load, save files, and reload the environment you're in. For example here, resetting the blocks.

I can make a longer video with narration if there's interest. There may be better tools still since the author is working on the successor to this and there's another in-vr editor that's geared toward game creation.

La Red Nibö se viste de sus propios colores gracias a los nuevos temas disponibles en #Ecko :mastodon:

Agradecemos especialmente a @weex por haber hecho estos cambios posibles y por impulsar el proyecto ecko junto a la comunidad de usuarios del #fediverso.

@feonixrift some major recency bias probably affecting me here but Lua and this vr framework called Lovr. Started creating the environment I want in VR. Can share some pics or video later.. Being able to code the environment while in it is a gamechanger.

A new version of Acropolis was just released for YunoHost. 🎉

is Magic Stone's fork of *, one of the first federated apps ever made which is built around "aspects" or circles of people that you want to share with. Sign up at dogieda.org if you want to try it.

🛠️ If administration is your thing, is the easiest way. Version 2021.12.27~ynh1 makes it possible to create admin accounts from command line and changes the nodeinfo software name so that Acropolis nodes can now be seen at acropolis.fediverse.observer/l

It was great to get back in the office after these holidays.

Worked on bumping YunoHost for Ecko and Acropolis, more FAQs, and testing the donations CLI.

More satisfying than any high-calorie feast!

#JoinFediverseWiki is almost ready for it's official launch in 8 days.

joinfediverse.wiki

Right now I'm gathering feedback from people who are not deep into the Fediverse yet.
What you can do to help:
* #boost this post.
* show the wiki to your non-fedizen friends and forward me their feedback.
* of course you can give me feedback yourself even if you're a Fediverse veteran.
* help edit the wiki. For now I wrote almost everything myself.

Happy holidays everybody. 🎉

@stux link to issue? Interested in audio captcha here as well for accessibility.

Good question about our choice of Acropolis and diaspora* vs. working on ActivityPub ... lemmy.ml/post/125390/comment/1

@jorge Hey Jorge, it's already merged so the real proof is when and how people use it plus seeing what problems people run into. If you mean the next PR to ecko_ynh then yes. 😊

Starting today you can support your favorite instance of by donating with your credit card through Stripe. 💳

Once you donate you get a badge that appears on your profile and on your toots (when viewed locally). This was accomplished through a plugin called Sponsors that helps to solve two problems.

🔌 First is to prove out the plugin facility that we added recently to Ecko. We're building plugins around Ruby gems so that these may be reused by many other projects on the fediverse including Magic Stone's fork of diaspora* called .

🤑 Second is the money problem. The fedi doesn't do venture capital, doesn't have unicorns and doesn't data harvest to pay for massive server farms. Instead communities are often run near the financial edge simply because it's hard to pool resources. By making it easy to donate and show support, we hope the Sponsors plugin helps even the playing field so the fediverse can shine.

🗿 If you'd like to try this out and support the Magic Stone community, you can sign up at c4.social and click the donate link in the lower right.

Acropolis is now available for installation via YunoHost. 🎉

This is Magic Stone's fork of diaspora*, one of the first federated apps ever made, and one that is more focused on "aspects" or circles of people that you want to share with. Instead of following, you share with people. An auto-share back mechanic helps create connections.

Acropolis supports post formatting, threaded comments, and posts are bigger so photos are easier to see without clicking in. Sign up at dogieda.org if you want to try it.

🛠️ If administration is your thing, YunoHost is the easiest way. Version 2021.12.02~ynh1 still requires initial account creation via web interface and promotion to admin via command line but in the near future, admin account creation will be more seamless.

Early Christmas present... An open source smart watch! Hope I find the time to get it running. Had hopes of recording voice memos on the go in luxurious software freedom. :fire:
