What is Hackers' Pub?

Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.

RE: mastodon.social/@dansup/116222

People never understand that activitypub is fundamentally built for public data, any privacy controls have been superglued onto it and basically amount to good will behavior on the part of servers.

There's not actually anything preventing a rogue AP server from boosting private or follower only posts, for example.

Fedi is not the platform for privacy.

@twippedJocelynephiliac :reclaimer: The fediverse has email-level privacy. E2EE would be better. And email-style private messaging is actually the default in AP, the special case is public posts. But it is important to know that email-level is, while not strong enough, stronger than eg what exists in ATProto (which doesn't have direct messaging either)

But it's completely true that like with email, you have to trust your server administrator.

얘기하다보니 인간혐오도짐 섹계도그렇고 디지털쓰레기 생산하는 스팸들이 대부분 봇이라고해도 그 봇을 생산하고 관리하는 인간이 뒤에 있으며 그게 한둘은 아닐거고 그런놈들이 이 블스를 포함해 인터넷 생태계에 똥을 전방위로 뿌려대며 전기 메모리 등등을 잡아먹는다는 생각을 하니 역겨워서못견디겠음 그러고살고싶은건가 진심으로

We've optimized data loading so feels fast and seamless despite running its own server.

What's next:
- Interaction controls (#GoToSocial approach) to manage who can reply/boost/like your posts
- Keywords filtering on the public timeline to reduce noise and show what matters to you
- Community domain blocklist subscriptions with auto-sync

@HolosSocial Question: since you control the client and the server, can you also sand off some long held rough edges of the fedierse? See my list of top issues to fix here and it seems to me you might be able to do some of these more directly in your model than fediverse clients and serers operating separately can...

You already fix server choice, and to some degree discovery.... but what about
item 3 here, remote server interactions...?

RE: hachyderm.io/@pheonix/11622180

it is for your own good - meta engineering probably 😂 from what i hear the IG app no longer shows your videos or pics to your followers. it is all algo driven. so you are not losing much not having that account. just delete the IG and move on with your life. no point fighting corrupt corporation i guess. fyi, mastodon/fedi offers pic and video sharing without stupid alogs.

I pre-ordered the GameSir "Pocket Taco" for use with the Delta Emulator (@delta_emulator). Planning to play Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons on Delta using this controller! They ship on March 15th, so this Sunday :)

RE: mastodon.social/@prietschka/11

It is hard for me to modulate an appropriate level of intensity to respond to stuff like this because the amount of pressure being brought to bear by leaders (both in the business world and in the tech community) is so intense that it’s abusive. And the arguments of public intellectuals attempting to stake out “moderate” positions are absolutely being used as rationalizations for ruining people’s livelihoods and wrecking businesses. Causing measurable harm as well as subjective human misery.
