Hi everyone, today we’d like to welcome two new members to Gaza Verified after @aseelfromgz, @casey, and I had the honour of talking to them over video chat.
They are:
• Samar and her family (@Samar_2025). We spoke with her children, Qais and Mohammed.
• Maram and her family (@maram4). Maram’s account is mainly run by Weaam, her daughter, who we spoke to.
Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and the fediverse, follow their accounts, and, if you can, please help them with their fundraisers and please share this so others might also.
💕

The risk to local publications grows by the day.
We don't believe any local community should have to survive without reliable local news. That's why we're hoping to work with more local news groups and help them set up their own online space, including an app.
If you know of a local publication which might be interested, please tell them to reach out to us.

TIL that the president of Signal believes that people who run Mastodon and/or Matrix servers do so "in most cases" on hyperscaler* infrastructure.
This is my Mastodon server. And its UPS. And its networked KVM for when things get really hairy.
It's also my Matrix server. And Nextcloud. And Git. And Home-Assistant. And Jellyfin. And SearXNG. And Peertube.
When people objected to her claims, she doubled down and proclaimed condescendingly that we "don't have a clear understanding of this space".
TIL that I don't feel confident in recommending people to use Signal. Something's very off here.
*) "hyperscaler" basically means the big cloud infra providers with provisioning APIs that allow you to scale your resources up/down automatically with usage

Hi everyone,
Due to a combination of Internet issues and personal issues we were only able to hold a verification call with one person from Gaza today.
Please give Lubna (@Lubnaaj5), who is a mother of three and an engineer, a warm welcome to Mastodon and the fediverse (and please follow her, donate to her fundraiser if you can, and share this so others might do also).
https://gaza-verified.org/people/@Lubnaaj5@mastodon.social/
This is her fundraiser:

Thank you.
💕

The delete all dead jobs from the SideKiq morgue is missing in v4.5-beta.2 Mastodon. Anyone know how to tweak it and get that link back? #MastoAdmin I'm gonna poke around and see if it is a custom webUI change. Curious if there was a reason to remove it, also. #Mastodon

I hate to glaze anything too much... but Fosstodon is pretty cool, I'd say. If you moved instances during the troubles you should really consider making your way back home! Miss u <3
