    I'm pretty sure we have a problem when one of the most notable voices in the community responds to a "well, you could hire folks to implement things for you" like this:

    And folks wonder why I'm on burn out leave at the moment. Like, we really need to have a serious conversation about just how much free and unpaid labour we're all relying on here. If I can't pay my rent, then I can't contribute to open source, it's that fucking simple.

    Chat log from a discord I'm in:

renchap 18:03:

It helps if there is discussion with us first

Evan Prodromou 18:05:

Nice. I'll give it a try. There are a few small ActivityPub items l'd love to see tweaked.
Really active Open Source projects can get the majority of their code written by people outside the core team, but it requires a lot of effort on the part of the core team.

renchap 18:10:

Most Open Source projects are not user-facing products
If you want a strong and consistent product & user interface, it is very complex. This is why we ask that significant contributions first start by a discussion with us, so we can (maybe) assign some product design time to the contribution to ensure that it will be done in a way that can be merged

thisismissem@hachyderm.io 18:25:

Paying a developer familiar with the codebase can also help in getting things implemented, though the conversation with the Mastodon team is still necessary of course

Evan Prodromou 18:25:

LOL

(two people reacted with a confused reaction)

      I should also note that I'm not the only frequent contributor to various fediverse projects who is struggling to make ends meet. I know of at least a half dozen other independent developers who do a tonne of work in standards and figuring stuff out for the fediverse who don't have stable income from well-paid jobs to rely upon.

      So my comment wasn't me asking for money from someone, but rather, just saying that there's folks that have expertise in making changes, and they could be hired to make the changes you want to see in a reasonable manner.

      We cannot rely on free labour to advance the fediverse. We live in a capitalist society, so folks need money to pay their rent, buy food and frankly exist.

        does this mean needs different accounts for different "activities" — like I can't upload a video on and use with the same account?

                    Mastodon API: fixed a regression (introduced in previous version in the "boosts disappear in Tusky" fix) that interrupted timelines.

                        I've just published version 2.79 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

                        Added a server-wide Webmention hook; this way, if somebody out there (that supports Webmention) links to a user or post in this instance, a notification is sent (this is the complementary of what was implemented in version 2.76).

                        Fixed regression while sending email via pipe on OpenBSD.

                        Fixed Markdown parsing when the URL has parenthesis.

                        Always show the 'pending follow confirmations' section if there are any (even if the toggle is off).

                        If a metadata value is an account handler, it's also tried to be validated (rel="me" links).

                        Another search by URL tweak (this time for Pixelfed links).

                        Mastodon API: fixed a bug that made some boosts disappear after being shown in apps like Tusky, added followed hashtags maintenance, other minor changes.

                        Renamed command-line actions create_list to list_create and delete_list to list_remove.

                        The default favicon URL can be changed from the server configuration.

                        New command-line option export_posts, to export all posts by a user in a JSON format compatible with the one generated by Mastodon.

                        The command-line options to send notes also allow an optional -r argument, to set the URL of a Fediverse post this note is a reply to.

                          OK. What is going on here?

                          A bunch of people can see the posts sent out by @colours - but lots of people can't.

                          As far as I can see, Mastodon.social isn't sending me back an HTTP response when I send to a shared inbox. But other Mastodon-based servers happily accept it.

                              That should be paginated followers, but I can't see the followers in any Mastodon client.

                                  ✅ Esse negócio de entrar num perfil e não ver os posts é muito comum aqui.

                                  ✅ Esse amadorismo dos administradores de instâncias acontece muito aqui no Brasil também.

                                  ✅ Falta de caixa de entrada para mensagens é mesmo um problema.

                                  ✅ A migração é realmente limitada. Também acho que deveria trazer o conteúdo.

                                              I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.78 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

                                              Hashtag following also allow URLs to RSS feeds of ActivityPub objects (like e.g. https://mastodon.social/tags/ThankYouTuesday).

                                              Users can now configure a webhook to receive an HTTP POST for every notification. This can be useful for implementing bots that react to activities, like autorepliers, chatbots or interactive textual games (see snac(1) for more information).

                                              The number of pending follow confirmations is shown next to the "people" link.

                                              Faster performance metrics (contributed by dandelions).

                                              Improved lowercasing in hashtags (contributed by postscriptum).

                                              A search-by-url tweak for implementations that return 200 for invalid webfinger queries (e.g. piefed).

                                              Mastodon API: added follow confirmation endpoints, fixed collisions in attachment file names.

                                              Fixed potential crashes in attachment uploads.
