Not surprised at all. The whole de-centralised concept is a misnomer. https://www.epj.org/epjb-news/1510-epjb-highlight-is-the-bitcoin-network-an-oligarchyYuri Volkov likes this.

Pumpiverse community update
Christopher Allan Webber at 2015-09-22T19:11:04Z
We just had a mini-meeting in #pump.io on irc.freenode.net... here is a quick update. @Evan Prodromou kindly joined us, and quite a few other community members, and everyone seems interested in making Pump.IO more of a community project. Here are roughly the future steps from this meeting:
- Find a community-stewardship home for pump.io. We will apply to become a Conservancy member project (@Bradley M. Kuhn is interested in Pump becoming a member project, but he is not the only one involved in that decision), though other places may also be explored (but Conservancy is currently target #1)
- We will be expanding the number of people committing to and contributing to the project. To start with, Evan has extended commit and admin rights to @jpope and myself. We will also be looking to make this more of a community structure; @Laura Arjona and I are volunteering to help with this transition. Laura also started this community document!
- E14N is looking for new homes for E14N hosted nodes on the pumpiverse. Are you interested, and a responsible person with strong interest in the health and future of the pumpiverse? We could use your help!
- We will probably need to raise funds for some of the hosting costs. How that will be done is yet to be determined.
- Since @Evan Prodromou, @Tsyesika and I are all working on the ActivityPump spec, of course we want Pump.IO to begin adoption of this standard, and will be looking towards that over the next few months. We'd like to also see GNU Social and Pump.IO talking together; ideally this would happen via both of them adopting the new standard, but probably Pump.IO needs to lead the way here and product a reference implementation to test against.
I'm looking forward to a more community-driven future of Pump.IO. Long live the pumpiverse!

Show all 13 repliesMaybe! I kind of consider this mostly about the pumpio transition, though maybe it makes sense? What do you think, @Laura Arjona
I think we need a section with the people involved in the non-core code/services. I'll try to add/reorganize tomorrow; feel free to be faster than me, or just add yourself and later I'll reorganize.
Thanks for caring!

“What's involved in adopting the E14N nodes? If the cost isn't something crazy, I can probably adopt one. in order of preference: microca.st (bencook, already claimed), fmrl.me, pumpbuddy.us.
I see urmf.net in the list -- what is that one? I don't think I have seen it before.”
urmf.net ('you are my friend') was a pump.io node from the beginning, like microca.st>> Laura Arjona:

Actually, it's more than that! It has the honor, along with identi.ca, of being a StatusNet-server-migrated-to-Pump ;)
It was migrated before identi.ca, in fact! And it's been in the "tryit" list ever since.

@sazius@pump.saz.im I saw your messages, but in AndStatus they don't look different from any other messages in a Timeline.
I really need to add to AndStatus analysis of _all_ recipients in order to search for my account in the list.
BTW, I have full logging turned on now, so I will be able to play with these messages, use them in tests...Yuri Volkov likes this.

... the point being that there are two ways of seeing this. Replying is a relation to another message - addressing is a relation to another user.
In the Pumpa client it tries to reply only to the main post since otherwise the web client will not show it, but it uses the To field to address the person directly.

Pursuant to the plan, I just pushed version 0.3.0 of pump.io to the npm registry, and started version 0.4.0. I also started the process of converting the codebase from JavaScript to CoffeeScript(an automated process).rozzin, Yuri Volkov, ostfriesenmärz, Susan Pinochet and 10 others likes this.

This phrase is so awesome to so many levels...
«The utopia is similar to the horizon. When we walk towards it, it moves away from us. When we keep walking, it moves away more than before. The utopia is like this: we will never reach it. And if it’s so, what’s it for? To make us walk.» (Eduardo Galeano)
Loved it! Thanks Laura!Yuri Volkov, Tobias Diekershoff, Krugor, Benjamin and 8 others likes this.

Friends
You can reach my personal feeds on pump.io, Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, and other places. Usually stuff starts on pump.io, and gets pushed out other places, but occasionally I originate stuff on those other networks.
It's not OK to me for you to ask tech-support questions in the comments on my personal stuff. Ideally, send tech support stuff to admin@e14n.com. If you don't know how email works, or whatever, feel free to send me a direct message via pump.io or one of those other platforms.
Tacking requests as comments onto my personal pictures is rude. You're changing the subject in a conversation in a pretty demanding way.
It also puts me into an uncomfortable situation. Either I go along with you changing the subject ("What's the problem? How can I help?") ignoring everyone else in the conversation, or I have to ignore you or try to contact you out of band.
I'm pretty easy to reach directly.Yuri Volkov, Greg Grossmeier, ostfriesenmärz, jrobb@microca.st and 12 others likes this.

Show all 12 repliesEvan, you've made me feel happy that I don't seem to have this problem (hardly at all).
Instead, I just get people emailing bug requests and support questions to my personal email address rather than filing bugs and posting questions places that the whole community can aswer (and learn from the answers).
Just wish I was better about always responding to those and getting them straightened out and posting to the right place but instead I vacillate between a) being a sucker and giving this intrusion main-inbox-crash-priority b) mailbox zero filng it away in some folder I'll get to in 2018 and c) pressing D.I agree—people should not be asking for support requests on your personal accounts!
But having to resort to e-mail on a message-based social network seems a bit silly… what about bringing back https://identi.ca/support? Wasn't there talk of volunteer sysadmins a while ago too?For some reason this makes me really badly need to post a tech support request in reply to this very note, but I can't think of one right now. Shoot.@evan@e14n.com I would suggest you try using different identities (user accounts) for different purposes. E.g. suppose you're browsing your personal timeline (or even direct messages) and notice a message (note, dent, tweet whatever) that is related to YouAsPumpioAdmin. Reply to this message as another, proper identity. This way the conversation is automatically been moved to that YouAsPumpioAdmin timeline and may be easily discovered and followed up by anyone interested in that your admin identity. BTW, @andstatus client has this "Act as..." feature so you may try ;-)Evan Prodromou at 2013-11-06T17:08:21Z
