Not that many people email me, but just to let you all know, I've broken my emails and can't send or reply to any.

I moved to a new provider but during changing settings, I've broken things and now can't send or reply. I have contacted my provider and I am waiting to hear back from them.

admin ?? You got Signal?

IkkleGemzUniverse @admin Yeah I have Signal

admin okay, so weird. @Morpurgo what am i doing wrong

Morpurgo Link werkt gewoon

Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you all have a great day 🙂

Happy Thursday, everyone! I hope you all have a great day 🙂

If I set my Mastodon or Sharkey/Misskey to Limited Federation Mode, can followers see my posts or do I need to add the instance they're on to the allowed list?

Catha I made an account and never bern abke to post, comment, nothing. Staff@mastodon.social is neve rresponding my emails. So i tried deleting my .social account and can't even login on that server ...

admin ow? thats to bad did you tried this https://mastodon.social/auth/password/new

Catha I tried everything. But not even the emails to renew pw reach my mailbox. And i am absolutelly 100% sure i made no mistake there since i copy/paste to avoid typos.

admin Okay. Not good, nice an weird

IkkleGemzUniverse @Catha That instance is very busy and I often hear bad stuff. It's weird that you can't do anything though.

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope you all have a great day 🙂

I love Sharkey and Misskey the most due to their appearance, features and how easy they are to customize (for the most part), but the app I love most is Ivory, which is for Mastodon (which I am having issues trying to get storage working on) 😂. If only there was a version of Ivory for Misskey and Sharkey.

Happy Tuesday, everyone! I hope you all have a great day 🙂

Does anyone know how to set up DigitalOcean Spaces S3 storage on Mastodon? I'm having trouble getting it to work.

admin is, still struggle for me to. sorry

IkkleGemzUniverse @admin I guess I'm glad it's not just me 😂

Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you all have a great day 🙂

I've just read that you can customise the character limit on Misskey. Does anyone know how to do it? I can't find any instructions.

admin If you’re an admin (or running your own instance)
You change it in the server config file.
Typical steps:
Open your Misskey config (usually .config/default.yml or similar)
Look for a setting like:
maxNoteLength: 3000
Change it to whatever you want (e.g. 5000, 10000)
Rebuild/restart Misskey:
npm run build
sudo systemctl restart misskey
⚠️ Notes:
Some older versions had it more “hard-coded,” but newer versions expose it in config.
Federation: other servers may still truncate or reject overly long posts.

IkkleGemzUniverse @admin I managed to do it on Sharkey but not Misskey. I added the setting to the config.
