    @xanylovem @mobilizon

    Your reply has got absolutely nothing to do with Mobilizon, why are you posting this?

    I'm not even going to go into this topic, they've already told you why it is not allowed on that instance (and it is a very good reason indeed).

    Instances all have different rules and that is their right. If you don't like one instance go to a different one.

    Some were asking whether there is a Fediverse alternative to Facebook Events/Groups.

    There is one on the way!

    It's called Mobilizon, and it had a successful crowdfunding to cover development costs. The beta version is due out in October.

    It will be free, open and federate with ActivityPub.

    You can follow it on here:

    @miro

    Well... I said that local bookstores are the most ethical way of buying new physical books :blobsmile:

    I don't have a stance on whether books or ebooks are better.

    I'm assuming you're in the US? There's an indie bookshop locator site here:

    https://www.indiebound.org

    If there's nowhere you can go to nearby, you could try ordering from e.g. https://www.betterworldbooks.com/ ?

    Ok, apologies for the last toot, I've removed it :blobsad:

    For transparency, I was posting that Pixelfed federates fully now, but apparently a lot of instances don't have the necessary code yet.

    That should come in the next official update (10.1), but I've deleted the toot because it isn't out yet and I don't want to cause any confusion.

    I'll repost about Pixelfed federating once 10.1 is out.

    I think all these updates will be included in 10.1 which is just about to be released:

    This has been asked before, as far as I know there isn't one yet, though someone was working on this?

    In case you missed it, the Fediverse photo sharing network @pixelfed now federates fully both ways:

    Pixelfed <-> Pixelfed

    Pixelfed <-> Mastodon

    Pixelfed <-> Pleroma

    Whichever Pixelfed instance you join, you can now follow people on other Pixelfed/Mastodon/Pleroma instances (and vice versa).

    To follow someone on another instance:

    1. Copy and paste their account address into the search box (e.g. https://pixelfed.social/dansup)

    2. Click Search

    3. Click Follow

    @masterofthetiger @digitalcourage @IntegralDuChemin @grammost @Fairphone

    Fairphone are distributing the software, that's what the code.fairphone.com site is for.

    I'm just guessing that it would cause more harm than good if they tried to sell this preinstalled, as non-tech people would be swamping their support channels asking why apps X, Y and Z don't work.

    But again, I don't work there so I can't say for sure what the reasons are.

    Interesting.

    Does she say anything about buying used physical books?

    Hey there @switchingsocial
    Your website reads "The most ethical way of buying books is from your nearest bookstore" ("Local Bookshops" section)
    I wonder if this assertion entails environmental considerations as well?
    I'm not saying eBooks are more eco-friendly than physical books, nor vice-versa (I don't know).
    Just that some pointers on both aspects would be nice. I don't have any at hand, but looking forward to reading on these topics!

    @antipodescafe @Fairphone

    Are you sure which OS you have?

    Fairphone OS and Fairphone Open are two different OSes. (The names are slightly confusing! :blobsmile: )

    Fairphone OS is basically Google Android and comes with the phone by default.

    Fairphone Open is degooglised and has to be installed.

    @nicooo

    Good question!

    I'm not an expert on energy consumption so I don't know if ebooks are better than physical ones.

    On the one hand ebooks don't physically need to be made or moved about, but on the other they require compex undegradable hardware to be manufactured.

    I think the idea of the page is mainly just, "if you're buying a book here's where to get it, if you're buying an ebook here's where to get it". I don't really have the expertise to say which type is better :blobsad:
