Re: Solutions to help organisations mirror their antisocial media posts to mastodon?
Dear Yuchen, One theory I read on this matter (possibly from FSF itself, I'm not sure) is an organization valuing its freedom should publish only to services that respect freedom. Instead of publishing directly to the antisocial disservices, an organization with self respect should rely on others to publish to the antisocial media. As long as people are used by these antisocial media, there should be people who is willing to copy the publication from the freedom-respecting service to their dis-services of choice.

Reminds me of a podcast ep I listened to recently, where one of the hosts talked about hacking the activity pub api so that his blog could appear as a mastodon account, and blogposts would appear in full in the mastodon posts, and (the most interesting part IMO) replies will appear as comments on the blogpost webpage: --8<---cut here---start->8--- Linux Matters: Blogging to the Fediverse Episode webpage: https://linuxmatters.sh/16/ Media file: https://traffic.libsyn.com/latenightlinux/LMP16.mp3 --8<---cut here---end--->8--- > [... 34 lines elided] Best, Yuchen -- Dr Yuchen Pei | https://ypei.org | Timezone: UTC+11 PGP Key: 47F9 D050 1E11 8879 9040 4941 2126 7E93 EF86 DFD0 https://ypei.org/assets/ypei-pubkey.txt ___ libreplanet-discuss mailing list libreplanet-discuss@libreplanet.org https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss
Re: Solutions to help organisations mirror their antisocial media posts to mastodon?
One of the nice things about posting to Mastodon is the fact people interact and comment on posts. This is a two way process. If you sell a product or offer a service and I ask about this on Facebook then surely someone would reply, as a Mastodon user I would expect the same or similar level of interaction with posts, and yes,l this does require someone to be there to answer questions or comments on posts Or in some cases if a user posted an offensive comment have this removed I think this is one of the reasons people on Mastodon prefer this over mainstream social media, quality of social interaction rather than quantity too Paul On 22/11/2023 01:22, Ron Nazarov via libreplanet-discuss wrote: On 20/11/2023 12:55, Yuchen Pei wrote: Hello librenauts, Often when talking to people running organisations, they tend to cite reach when asked why they only post on twitter, fecebook etc. However, if they could automate mirroring their posts to mastodon they wouldn't mind doing that. Some of these orgs even have a mastodon account, but with barely any posts. Some of these people even despise twitter and don't have a twitter account themselves. So I wonder if there is a tool that automates toot for tweet replication? The FSF uses this script: https://vcs.fsf.org/?p=pdt.git;a=summary FSF account names are hard-coded but the README says that a patch that makes them configurable would be accepted. ___ libreplanet-discuss mailing list libreplanet-discuss@libreplanet.org https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss ___ libreplanet-discuss mailing list libreplanet-discuss@libreplanet.org https://lists.libreplanet.org/mailman/listinfo/libreplanet-discuss
