Sounds like this is part of their business plan. Make hosting it so onerous, you're better-off using their servers, or paying them to do it for you.
Just use croc to share files. Then size doesn't matter.
I guess the easy solution here to to make it use oauth2 authentication. Then you can just authenticate using one account elsewhere. If fediverse services also at some point become oauth2 providers, then even better.
Revolt != Matrix
I haven't seen anything like that. What steam news specifically are you referring to?
What the absolute fuck? itch.io is fucking massive, how did the registar just treat them like this? goddamn!
I joke about firing people sometimes, but I am not a manager and never want to be managing anyone. I only say it to people who know that I have no power over them which is the only time this joke is OK.
Digg still exists. Death of websites is rarely a complete shutter, but usually more of a steady decline into obscurity
Fediseer is still a bit of a PITA to use as it requires you use a clunk API interface or API commands. Fortunately @xtremeownage@lemmyonline.com has stepped up to start developing a nicer frontend to use for doing standard operations such as guarantees and endorsements.
The GUI is still basic but functional and it's improving daily.
New feature has been deployed on the Fediseer where it can autogenerate special .svg badges for your Fediverse domain which you can embed directly.
The images have an embedded link to the endpoints proving this, but that doesn't work in markdown, so when embedding in markdown, you need to put the link manually.
Guarantees
https://fediseer.com/api/v1/badges/guarantees/%7Bdomain%7D.svg
This badge will display which other fediverse domain guaranteed that your domain is not spam. Remember each instance can only have 1 guarantor due to the chain of trust.
Example: 
[](https://fediseer.com/api/v1/whitelist/lemmy.dbzer0.com)`
Endorsements
https://fediseer.com/api/v1/badges/endorsements/%7Bdomain%7D.svg
This badge will provide a count of how many other fediverse domains endorsed for yours. An instance can guarantee another instance for any reason.
Example: 
[](https://fediseer.com/api/v1/endorsements/lemmy.dbzer0.com)`
Display
You can place these anywhere you want on your site, but obvious suggestion is on the main sidebar. This will work for any domain known by the Fediseer. If your domain is not known, simply claim it and then find someone to guarantee for you.
What this means is that Friendica admins will now get PMs on guarantees etc.
Note that while every software can be added, guaranteed, only the supported software get PMs.
- If you've claimed your instance, you can now search for it via your API key. This should be useful for GUI developers.
- You can see how many admins have claimed an instance
update_blacklist.pyhas been updated whenRequireApplicationis switched on in 0.18- The sus list has been updated to take into account and report users per active user
Also, @xtremeownage@lemmyonline.com has started working on a new UI, so hopefully soon it'll be much easier to claim and guarantee your instances!
If you have claimed your instance and you'd like someone to guarantee that you're not spam, please use this page
If you want to see who needs a guarantee and help them out, please visit this page. First check that the instance is not obvious spam of course ;)
if you think the idea of the Fediseer is a good one, we could use your help!
If you have an instance, make sure you've claimed it. To claim it, you can use this curl command
DOMAIN=lemmy.dbzer0.com
ADMIN=db0
curl -X 'PUT' \
'https://fediseer.com/api/v1/whitelist/$%7BDOMAIN%7D' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'Client-Agent: unknown:0:unknown' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"admin": "${ADMIN}"
}'
In the above bash script, simple replace your DOMAIN and ADMIN with your own. If you're on windows, you can use git bash to run it.
Now you simply need to wait for someone to guarantee your instance. You can ask in this thread, or just look for other guaranteed instances which share your values and ask them. In fact if you pass a "guarantor": "domain.tld" key/value to the payload above, the admins of that instance will get a PM to guarantee for you!
Once you get your API key with a PM, you can then help us add more instance. If you know of any instances that are definitelly not spam, simply use the nelow curl call to guarantee for them as your own instance. They don't have to be claimed yet.
APIKEY="abcdefsawadf"
DOMAIN="notspam.domain.tld"
curl -X 'PUT' \
'https://fediseer.com/api/v1/guarantees/$%7BDOMAIN%7D' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'apikey: ${APIKEY}'
Alternatively you can use the API directly so you don't have to edit curl commands.
I hope soon we'll have a working GUI which will make this very painless.
That software can be added to the Fediseer and guaranteed or endorsed by other instances, but cannot be claimed by its admins. This is because I have not figured out how to retrieve the admin list and/or private message people there.
Currently only Mastodon and Lemmy are supported for claiming.
VCs gotta make back that ROI...
