login persistency(?)


hello !Friendica Support, i am wondering why i have to log in to friendica each and every time i open a browser. is this by design, and/or are there options to change that behaviour? (i can not find anything related to that)

cheers,
felix
in reply to Hypolite Petovan

true. i store my 2fa stuff in a password manager, so there is a layer of security in the form of a long password infront of my 2fa tokens. but that makes it so unpleasant to type the 2fa tokens in more than necessary. i guess there is no right and wrong options here.
in reply to felix b. ohmann

Yes, it's all about tradeoffs between convenience and security. 2FA mostly prevents remote logins with stolen credentials, but your mobile device security is another matter entirely.


installed seafile, deleted dropbox account. one corporation less. feels good.
in reply to felix b. ohmann

Ah. Danke. Möchte auch unbedingt weg von Dropbox. Empfehlungen für meine Zwecke (die Du ja kennst)?


32ch analog mixing console giveaway


hello people of the fediverse! if you are looking for a 32ch analog inline mixing desk, i have 2 of those that i am ready to give away. one tascam m3500 and one tascam m3700 (the same board, just with a small vca automation computer). location is near elmshorn/hamburg, and you have to come with a big car (station wagon / kombi) to pick one up, as they are quite big. this can be reshared to people around hamburg! # # # # #



stable or development?


humans of the abraum, i have a question for you: the initial few weeks i was running the development branch of friendica with little issues. now that we are gathering a small crowd here, i switched to stable at the current release. this puts us 1-3 months behind current developments. what is your opinion about running dev vs. stable? do you/we want to keep it stable, or do we want to accept stuff possibly breaking from time to time in exchange for pulling latest developments faster? or maybe run a second playground instance?
in reply to felix b. ohmann

I'm a BLEEDING EDGE ALL THE WAY kinda guy. Just keep backups of the user db etc in case things go up in flames I guess?
in reply to felix b. ohmann

I don't care about downtime but don't make hosting unnötig nervig for yourself.


toxic waste


woke up very early, spent some time preparing reentry to germany (digitale einreiseanmeldung, smooth process, well done rki). also created a new facebook account 2 days ago to let more people around me know about the fediverse. instant feeling: urgh. the level of toxicity(?) in/under almost all content they show me over there is just astounding. i have not missed that at all during the last few months. bleeeeerrrgh. that monster needs to be taken down.




mobile clients


people on our instance, you can use a number of mobile clients for ios (amaroq or b4x) or android (see faq at https://github.com/friendica/friendica/blob/develop/doc/FAQ.md) to make mobile use more streamlined!
in reply to felix b. ohmann

@Felix Bohmann für iPad (oder eventuell Tablets allgemein, so es Android-Versionen gibt) find ich (natürlich nur ultrakurz geprüft ;) ) Oyakodon und/oder Tootle gut.
Weil: Landscape-Modus
EDIT: Ok, Tootle vielleicht doch nicht, denn damit konnte ich diesen Kommentar nicht absenden :)


building a party


i like how with every single one of my friends taking a look at our little place on the fediverse it feels a little bit less empty. i know it is not exactly empty, but getting friends over feels so good. good night good people of the abraum.


greetings from bergen aan zee again. a few days left before heading home.


hello again


greetings from bergen an zee! refueling after uc11, will be back soon!



packing for # has begun. looking forward to a week of outdoor (tech-)fun with normal people. ;) #


nichts zu sehen


what has happened these days: sold 2 vw t3 busses, workspace cleanup almost done. almost no time spent in the studio, beginning preparations for a 7 day semi-outdoor demoparty. feels good. also feeling tired.

mastodon clients with 2021.06-rc


!Friendica Admins

moin *!

i am experimenting with a friendica instance, right now i am testing the mastodon api with various ios clients, but i cant get past the login. there seems to be issues related to oauth, or authentication in general. i get logs like these:

when trying to accept the useage agreement on mercuro for mastodon after what seems to be a successful login and app connect:

2021-06-16T17:14:16Z index [NOTICE]: Unhandled request field {"parameter":"scope","value":["read","write","follow","push"],"command":"oauth\/token"} - {"file":"BaseApi.php","line":155,"function":"getRequest","uid":"a984fe","process_id":451063}

or with metatext, login is ok, app is connected, but then i get http 401 with this:

[Wed Jun 16 17:21:40.117648 2021] [php7:notice] [pid 450931] [client 62.93.4.179:65179] PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in /var/www/html/friendica/src/Security/BasicAuth.php on line 128

is that something that is just not working/tested yet, or is that some configuration error on my side?
in reply to felix b. ohmann

thanks for the reply, will keep an eye on it. i will also look into my php config.


mobile clients for ios


hello world! i went through the docs of friendica, and it seems i have to update the server a bit in the near future, as there is a release candidate for the beta we are currently running. good thing: since this version, it features a mastodon-style api, so mastodon ios clients should be useable with this instance soon! i will let you know once i have tested this!


it has begun (for me)


oh nice! the first real contact to an outside instance. hello @David ‘Bombe’ Roden

friends, lets get more people to freedom! :)

facebook aftermath


so, a few days ago i decided i could actually reopen my facebook account for a few days to pester my friends with new social locations like this here. turns out i missed the 30 day deadline by a few days, so my facebook account is gone for good now. the first few minutes i did not really know what to think of that, but this weird feeling turned into a slightly less weird kind of relief quite quickly. it is gone, all the data should be gone (or going soon) and that huge backlog only exists as a html archive here at home. feeling good. now: good night.

in reply to felix b. ohmann

this feels a lot better than mastodon. but the testpicture felix is my mastodon test account on mastodon.social, and the federation works nicely.
