When the Open Social Web Hybridizes: Raccoon for Friendica is a new app… Mastodon. And it even has a little Lemmy in it! That’s why the Free Software + Fediverse duo is such a valuable resource. @fediverse Raccoon 1.0 was finally released for Android in recent days, a rather innovative client originally created for #Friendica, but which has now become one of the most innovative apps for the user experience on #Mastodon. The app is available for Android (already on the Play Store and Izzidroid, and will soon be available on F-Droid), but a #Debian package has also been released. An iOS version remains to be seen for its success. The app introduces some very important innovations to the federated app landscape. 1. Navigate the Fediverse from an app, even without creating an account Raccoon is the only app that lets you browse the Fediverse even without an account. When you install it, you can select any Friendica or Mastodon instance and “leverage” its local public and federated timelines. This way, users can explore multiple instances before choosing which one to open an account on. Of course, even after adding an account (the app manages multiple accounts), you can browse the timelines of servers other than the one you signed up to. 2. “Browse through” messages: “swipe” navigation Unlike all other social apps (both those for the Fediverse and those for commercial social networks), #RaccoonForFriendica lets you open a post in your timeline and continue browsing through previous and next posts by simply swiping left and right. This is a truly interesting ergonomic innovation. 3. Finally a formatting bar in social apps Since the app was created for Friendica, it features a built-in formatting toolbar reminiscent of Lemmy clients (in fact, the developer @janTeko first experimented with app development with a Lemmy app). The formatting toolbar can also be used for Mastodon instances running the Glitch-soc fork, such as infosec.exchange, tech.lgbt, and my poliversity.it instance, which was the one the developer experimented with. In addition to being more immediate, writing formatted posts is also made easier by a “preview” function that helps avoid errors in Markdown or BBCode coding. 4. Finally, Mastodon users will be able to enjoy Fediverse groups too. As you may know, Mastodon doesn’t support the display of group posts. Even if you select a group, you’ll still see a single timeline where top posts alternate with replies. Searching for a thread on Mastodon is therefore very complicated, but the #Raccoon developer has found a way to enable “topic” viewing across all accounts that are “activitypub groups,” be they #Lemmy, #NodeBB, Piefed, Mbin, Peertube, Wordpress, Mobilizon, Flipboard, etc. This idea also came about thanks to the fact that the developer had previously tried his hand at developing an app for Lemmy and was able to experiment with the formatting bars and display of Lemmy “communities,” which are nothing other than “#activitypub groups.” 5. Other interesting features Among other features, you can view the HTML code of messages; send scheduled posts; fully configure the interface; support for writing in HTML, useful both for Mastodon Glitch-soc and for writing WordPress posts by integrating the plugin “Activitypub for Wordpress” from @pfefferle and the “Enable Mastodon App” plugin from @alex integrate translation libraries 6. What’s still missing? The app features all the features found in most other Mastodon apps, except one: the correct handling of Mastodon posts that quote other posts. These are still displayed in a fairly primitive way. The developer is trying to decide whether to adapt to Mastodon specifications or reinterpret the feature in a more personalized way. It must be said that, unfortunately, the implementation of quoted messages (already present in Friendica for ages) was implemented by Mastodon very late, only in recent months, and in a very “personal” way that many other software developers did not appreciate. 7. Raccoon is an app that will benefit users who already use Mastodon but also those who have never “tried” the Fediverse This app has been under development for almost two years, and the beta version is just over a year old. However, version 1.0 has resolved all previously encountered issues. Based on user feedback, the developer will evaluate whether to create an iOS version and even a Windows version. Anyone who wishes to allow reporting of application errors can enable anonymous crash reports. 8. Links and Resources This is the developer’s profile: https://androiddev.social/users/janTeko This is the app repository: https://github.com/LiveFastEatTrashRaccoon/RaccoonForFriendica/ This is the Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.livefast.eattrash.raccoonforfriendica This is the link on IzzyDroid (the app will be released on F-Droid soon, but is currently under review): https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.livefast.eattrash.raccoonforfriendica Here is the developer’s blog: https://livefasteattrashraccoon.github.io/blog/ Finally, from here you can download the .apk or .deb package without using the online stores. line: https://github.com/LiveFastEatTrashRaccoon/RaccoonForFriendica/releases/latest/ One last recommendation The public’s response will be important to enable the further development of this app. If you want to test it on Mastodon, I recommend using instances running the glitch-soc fork. Among these, I’d recommend the infosec.exchange instance, which is well managed by @jerry. And of course, but only if you communicate in Italian or Esperanto, I’d be happy to host you on my poliversity.it instance. Regarding Friendica, I recommend two instances: friendica.world, managed by @ruud and featuring a rather lively timeline, and, of course, social.trom.tf, excellently managed by @tio. If you communicate in Italian, I’d be happy to host you on my poliverso.org instance. Greetings to all and let me know if you need further information, if you have tried the app and how you found it. Francesco You can also interact with me through the Mastodon account @informapirata and the Friendica account @notizie
From a purely physical perspective that is probably true, however it’s worth factoring in the mental aspect as well. With the world going to shit in a big way, having a drink on a Sunday afternoon might help take the edge off for some folks. Everything is about moderation, don’t take this as me championing binge drinking or anything like that, just that things that are physically bad for you can absolutely be used in moderation for enjoyment and that’s important too.

One breadfruit tree produces hundreds of pounds of tasty, nutritious fruit within a few years of being planted. Apparently all they need is high temperatures, good soil, and plenty of water. That’s it. No maintenance. Capitalists don’t use them because there’s no way to profit from them. I think I learned about this from a random tiktok video. I remembered Herman Melville’s other book, Typee, a memoir about how he ran away from a ship in the South Pacific and lived among indigenous people for six months or a year or so and had the time of his life. He loved those people, and they lived on breadfruit. All they did (simplifying obviously) was hang out, swim, and eat breadfruit. And meanwhile, we are here breaking our backs and/or brains, paying more for groceries every week while wages stagnate, and none of it has to be like this. Of course people want a little variety in their diets, of course there’s already enough food for everyone, but with breadfruit alone we could provide basic nutrition to everyone for free or next to nothing with no questions asked. Food insecurity, starvation, food deserts, malnutrition, animal suffering, pollution, none of this needs to exist. It’s all there so that the Epsteinists can buy more yachts. I know I’m preaching to the choir here but I was just thinking about this. I’m not even sure I’ve tasted breadfruit.
He’s got chode energy for sure

Out of context, this wouldn’t look good.
Title VII of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) is set to expire at midnight tonight after Congress failed to pass an extension of the controversial spying law. But that doesn’t mean the government’s spying powers will disappear. Surveillance under Section 702 of FISA “operates under yearlong certifications approved by the FISA Court,” the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law explained this week. The current certification will remain in place until March 2027 under the yearlong certification issued by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court on March 17, 2026. “In order to pressure members to accept a bill without meaningful reforms, surveillance hawks are claiming that Section 702 surveillance will ‘go dark’ on June 12 if Congress hasn’t renewed the law,” the Brennan Center said. “Contrary to that claim, Congress planned for potential lapses and made very clear that Section 702 surveillance may continue under existing certifications even if the statute sunsets. Members must not be fearmongered into passing a reauthorization without protecting Americans from warrantless government access to their private communications.”
As AI companies get ready to go public and we get a deeper look at their inner workings, it’s only natural to have questions about their finances, like “Do they make money?” and “How?” Here are a few examples to help the average layperson understand the business side of AI.
While the October 2024 embed was one of the more preposterous embodiments of Western corporate media’s special relationship with Israel, outlets continue to do a fine job of sanitizing Israeli brutality even when their reporters are not physically viewing the region from inside an Israeli armored vehicle. Since March of this year, Israel has killed at least 3,613 people in Lebanon and displaced 1.2 million, obliterating entire villages and otherwise expanding the ecocidal policy honed in the Gaza Strip. There has been no remotely comparable destruction on the Israeli side, and a recent Reuters article (5/31/26) that had attempted to suggest some symmetry now comes with the preface: “This May 31 story has been corrected to remove a reference to tens of thousands of Israelis being displaced by Hezbollah fire, in paragraph 3.” Like in Gaza, where genocide proceeds apace in spite of a declared ceasefire (FAIR.org, 10/21/25), the media tend to report “ceasefires” in Lebanon without caring to highlight the fact that it’s not a ceasefire when Israel is still pummeling the country and massacring people, all the while setting the stage for a massive land grab with its creeping so-called “evacuation orders.” … As Battah remarked to me, the media’s acceptance and deployment of such arbitrary vocabulary creates “artificial structures” and a sense of orderliness, when in reality “there’s no yellow lines, there’s no yellow, there’s no colors—these are just illegal invasions.” And because media are committed to sanitizing Israel’s behavior rather than questioning it, “colonization becomes normalized.” The eagerness of journalists to do Israel’s bidding is all the more confounding given that Israel is currently the No. 1 killer of journalists in the world. A recent Associated Press article (5/29/26), for example, reduced the pulverization of Lebanon to simply “ongoing fighting in southern Lebanon between Israeli troops and Hezbollah fighters.”
Context
Last Monday, California Reps. Judy Chu, Jimmy Gomez, and Pete Aguilar visited Adelanto Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Processing Center as the hunger strike in the immigration jail entered its second week. The Democrats met with three of the hunger strikers, who gave them a petition, signed by some 150 people inside the facility, speaking of inhumane conditions inside the jail and degrading treatment by staff. The Adelanto ICE jail is run by private prison company GEO Group. The next day, GEO Group staff entered a unit “in riot gear holding pepper spray, tear gas canisters and zip ties,” and removed two of the people who had met with congressional staff the day before. And on Wednesday, they removed the third person, according to other detainees.

You’re preaching to PC gamer enthusiasts. The majority of normies see PC as too advanced and complicated. Most go looking for consoles. The console market isn’t going down any times soon and devs can make plenty of money from this huge and very lucrative consumer.

Higher gas prices should promote more conservative driving habits as well, but they don’t. People don’t drive the speed limits now, they won’t slow down to save money, and they make automated enforcement a political liability, ensuring anyone who tries to rein them in gets the boot. Will sure be interesting if they completely run out, but just like the band continued to play while the Titanic went down, it’s going to be business as usual here until reality slaps us in the face.

Haven’t heard of that. Adding to the watchlist thanks. Maybe someone in the credits got that somewhere

As a dad now with a trans son I so get it. I’m blessed in I know who and what I am. I will never “get” what’s going on in his head or understand what trans is or any of that shit. But I love him, I want him happy and I will defend whatever he decides to be until the ends of the world. Note to everyone and self I use he/him because in my simple brain he has a dick he’s a boy. Like me he doesn’t give a shit because we joke about the old meme “I identify as an attack helicopter” and I tell people my pronouns are “dumb/ass” or if I’m being a dick “she/him” Digressions aside. If it doesn’t hurt anyone, and it makes someone happy, just let them be happy.
