Micro blogging posts

From I ask questions
Jump to: navigation, search

The problem I have so far is: that I have not yet all my contacts from all services at one place, so I want to track down in which service I post more.

Contents

current setting

  • Friendika -> StatusNet: which distributes to: identi.ca + twitter
  • MediaWiki extension Send2StatusNet: which sends wiki edits to any StatusNet site (e.g. identi.ca)
  • direct communication between diaspora + friendika

background

  • actually I prefer(red) StatusNet over Friendika, but due to a problem that I can not run Ostatus, I've switched to Friendika
  • after using Friendika a while was also unhappy there, see here + stopped using it
  • then I discovered that StatusNet is a better "tool" to crosspost via the SubMirror plugin to external services a la twitter or identi.ca
  • an advantage of this current system: StatusNet has mostly just my dents (since in Friendika I add all my contacts), so I can have a smaller DB dump in StatusNet

a chat extract


<Erkan_Yilmaz> well, I am not only using one software
<Erkan_Yilmaz> which is better to judge all efforts on all fronts
...
<Erkan_Yilmaz> but in general: the good thing with diversifying in software is:
<Erkan_Yilmaz> you get to know automatically new people
...
<Erkan_Yilmaz> well, you should not only point to friendica
<Erkan_Yilmaz> it depends
<Erkan_Yilmaz> e.g. I recommend sometimes elgg (which has also microblogging capabilities, e.g. for some teachers )
<Erkan_Yilmaz> and actually:
<Erkan_Yilmaz> with rss feeds
<Erkan_Yilmaz> one can point to any software Smile.gif
<Erkan_Yilmaz> such an old technology, but perfect
...
<Erkan_Yilmaz> well one point one could also look at is: the dependencies needed in the software to install
<Erkan_Yilmaz> and e.g. diaspora I can't install on one of my servers
<Erkan_Yilmaz> also not this one:
<Erkan_Yilmaz> Blog:Observations/What_is_a_federated_wiki
<Erkan_Yilmaz> and that's a bummer
<Erkan_Yilmaz> I'd like if people want to realize their ideas into real world things
<Erkan_Yilmaz> they should first look: who can use it after I've realized it
...
<Erkan_Yilmaz> well, in theory you could also run your own server from your own machine (be it pc or mobile)
<Erkan_Yilmaz> when the FreedomBox comes that may be one thing also
...
<Erkan_Yilmaz> I guess you need more people from you to the next connection
<Erkan_Yilmaz> you could convince some people in your area
<Erkan_Yilmaz> make a freifunk Smile.gif
