Feature request: please provide affordances for academic citations

Feature request: capitalist social media have deliberately done everything they could to degrade hyperlinks in favor of their built-in sharing mechanisms, and I think it's very important to provide affordances not only to link to things that were written after the 80s but also to insert academic references, which may be, for example, written during the antiquity (I'm thinking about Lahire's references to Aristotle's "L'éthique de Nicomaque" in "L'homme pluriel").

More to the point, I think that in order to build as anti-authoritarian a social network as possible, it's important to foster cultural diversity and for example on Twitter the ratio of your followings in their unique followings (ratio of your 1st-degree relationships in your...

Hi gangsters, the Phishing URL Blocklist used by uBlock Origin seems to block our media cache server. You need to disable this block list temporarily in the uBlock Origin settings to be able to view images.

Go sack them at gitlab.com/malware-filter/ph...

(PSA, it's a joke, we're all in the same boat and sometimes automated filters have false positive, you don't collect 55,653 malicious domains by hand. These brave people are doing the State's job for free, something quite unusual in tech ˀ!)

Océane: Adding an image deletes all preexisting image captions. I need to add both images, then add the image captions 🤞 #bonfire_feedback

Hmm, and so, there are two stacked toast messages that won't go by themselves #bonfire_feedback

Excuse me, I've read in the local TL that there was a words limit on Bonfire now, but what are you trying to achieve exactly?

The Fediverse is confronted to all kinds of abuse and the only time post length has been a problem it's been fixed forever by the "show more" button. If you want to prevent the circular consumption of low-quality posts (which is something that I want too!) well… a meta discussion/feditips extension would feel more appropriate, for example as a sort of built-in, decentralized wiki that the microblogging composer would link to on first login

Jeff: @ivan Appreciate the well thought out answer, and I'm glad to know I was on the right track with the concepts for the most part.
Agreed, family safety covers children and teenagers in much the same way. The level of monitoring has to be refined as children grow older (less monitoring, more trust) and as parents get older (less trust, more monitoring).
With elder parents, there is more of a risk of bad actors doing really scammy things, unfortunately.

@ivan Here's some #bonfire_feedback if you haven't thought about this already. Have some pre-packaged sets of audience configurations - "Community Clubs", "Local Crises Support", "Family with Children", "Family with Teens", "Family Elder Care"
Also - how are you writing longer posts than I can? I keep running out of space. 😊

This may be a bit of a different perspective on the Circles, Boundaries and Roles concepts. I have a parent with #Dimentia that loves social media.

Would it be possible to setup an account so that they can ONLY interact with users within specific circles and boundaries? And even further - limit that user's response types (like, retweet only)?

Océane: I'd like to make a joke about the FSF making a browser preventing you from collaborating loading non-free Javascript but it wouldn't be funny because it's true

#bonfire_feedback ^ no strikethrough?
