- The Pixelfed Kickstarter smashed its goals, raising over 100k CAD in funding
- Tumblr recommits to connecting to the #fediverse in the future, using the WordPress #ActivityPub plugin
A practical note: the RSS feed is currently offline while I'm working on some new stuff for Fediverse Report, and should be back soon. Thanks to everyone who flagged it, and I appreciate you using RSS!
"using random servers to register on is very dangerous, because not all of them are as dedicated to this as I am, some of them don’t update frequently or handle mod reports as fast as we do.”
@fediversereport @pixelfed oh I didn’t know about tumblr doing that. Thank god. I’ve been thinking about what to do for my blog since Wordpress publicly announced their support for DT. I really liked using the ActivityPub plugin for Wordpress.
@fediversereport @pixelfed oh nevermind, I completely forgot Wordpress bought/owns Tumblr. My brain was still stuck in the Yahoo days.
