I keep getting people trying to register at my #Friendica node. It's really only intended for people I know, because I don't have the resources to run a public server. This is my registration page. I don't know how I can make it any clearer.

I can only assume that anyone I don't recognize who tries to register at this point is a spam bot.

I have remedied the issue going forward, but for those who are interested, those podcasts are:
- @Radio Free Mormon (unofficial) - Radio Free Mormon
- @The Cult Vault (unofficial) - The Cult Vault
I guess with the influx of new users to the Fediverse, we're doing introductions now, so here's mine:
I'm a #FreeSoftware and #OpenCulture enthusiast and developer. I'm also an #ExMormon who's trying to create safe spaces for those who are recovering from high-demand control groups.

Just finished some maintenance on my #Friendica node. I should probably have made a backup first, but everything went smoothly as expected and I apparently like to live dangerousy.

Backing up the raw footage for my #Friendica review video. I still have to edit, caption, and upload, but it should be posted within the next couple days.

So, I accidentally recorded the screen capture at 720p while the footage from the camera was in 1080p. It seems that because of this, the rendering of my video is going at a sluggish 7FPS. My ~15min video is going to take about an hour to render. π
Just set up a bunch of #Twitter accounts I was following to sync with my #Friendica node. Currently, my stream is a firehose of old tweets as everything synchronizes. Many are from the before times and are making me simultaneously nostalgic and depressed.

I mean, I knew it was from before I got married, but that was early 2015. It's shocking how quickly time seems to pass.
Just noticed that you asked me to open an issue as well. I've just done so now.

So this whole #Friendica #SelfHosting experiment has been a smashing success. This will be the last post I boost from my legacy accounts, and I'll be checking them with less frequency. If you've not followed the new account, now would be a good time.
I want to extend a special thanks to opencube and fosstodon for giving me my first taste of the #fediverse.

Since I've opened my #Friendica node up to other people, it was time to include a Terms of Service page.
Decided it was best to keep it short and sweet.

Finally got email functionality working on my #Friendica node. Special thanks to @Hypolite Petovan, who was instrumental in helping to fix the problem.

I prefer to say I was coincidental in helping to fix the problem, Jonathan eventually figured it out on his own, I just gave him red herrings.

What is the canonical way for a user to report spam/abuse on a #Friendica node? I just realized that there doesn't seem to be a button for that.

I just learned that I can use #Friendica as an RSS reader. How did I not know any of this before?

I'd say we're better at protocol syncretism than communication?
