Bonfire Social 1.0 is live! A federated, community‑first social network built on the modular Bonfire toolkit, and it’s only the beginning. It's time to go beyond microblogging and build apps for community organising, open science, mutual aid, and collective decision‑making. Let's take back the internet with open protocols, consent‑based governance, and portability by design. Back the “last migration” from closed platforms to open networks: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/bonfire/community?refcode=FVxjqI1kLUOhHXxqyrS6-g 1/2

    @bonfire@indieweb.social I'm watching the suggested features for migrating from other fedi software like mastodon or especially misskey and it's various forks.

    @bonfire@indieweb.social Is the screen printed art piece already gone? I don't see it in the list of campaign rewards, but with an edition of 250 it seems like there should still be some left, right? 🤔

    @bonfire@indieweb.social how is this different to mastodon and is there no way to get an account without hosting an instance?

    @bonfire@indieweb.social First I've heard of this project, and I hope you don't mind if I ask a few (really basic) questions about it to see if it's right for me. Is this based on ActivityPub? Does it incorporate existing applications as a sort of aggregator, or it is a new and separate platform?

    Open ##2862111

  • @zzt@mas.to 2025-11-20 17:27

    @bonfire@indieweb.social your Elixir ActivityPub library has been on my radar for a while, but unfortunately pulling it in would involve having developers who solicit donations for slop code: https://github.com/bonfire-networks/bonfire-app/blob/main/AGENTS.md in my dependency graph, and I can’t justify that for software that’s meant to serve the marginalized communities currently being harmed by LLMs like the ones you’re using.

    @bonfire@indieweb.social Could you tell what exactly this is and how it’s different from using Mastodon or so? I don’t mean a/the pitch-story for investors (I could read the lengthy campaign then) but simple facts?
