🔥 Consent-based quoting has arrived in Bonfire! The latest Bonfire Social release implements Mastodon's FEP-044f, enabling you to: ✨ Use boundaries to define who can quote your post, who must request first, or who cannot request at all. ✨ Quote — or request consent to quote — someone else’s post. ✨ Give or withdraw consent at any time. A first step toward making quoting work smoothly and respectfully across the fediverse. Read more about 1.0 RC3:

🔥 Bonfire now supports post imports when migrating instances You can bring your posts (+ optionally replies) with you when moving to a Bonfire instance from another instance or platform. Imported posts keep their original dates and URIs. Threads are preserved, as are like/boost counts. It works by "boosting" all your old posts (without flooding others' feeds with old activities).

#openscience We're starting to experiment with generating DOIs for articles in Bonfire. We're considering using @npub1fp32...3wzf as the initial provider, but we'd love to hear your thoughts: is Crossref the right place to start, or would you recommend a different service? @npub1q585...yvq0

Bonfire x Newsmast We’re excited to share that Bonfire and @npub1dadl...y568 are working together. We’re collaborating across several key areas: 🔎 Enhancing discoverability for Channels on Bonfire 🧭 Improving interoperability between the Channels mobile app and Bonfire 🌌 Partnering to offer services for organisations around Bonfire’s Mosaic initiative #Bonfire #Newsmast #Fediverse #SocialWeb #TechNews #FediNews

Two new profile widgets coming in the next #OpenScience flavour release: 📄 Most Recent Publication: showcase your latest work ⭐ Most Cited Publication: highlight your most cited publication 🔧 Quantitative metrics now hidden by default while we consider removing them entirely ( discussion here:

As we integrate #OpenAlex data into the #Bonfire #OpenScience flavor, we're displaying familiar metrics: works count, citations, h-index, research topics, institutional affiliations... These might be exactly what you need, or perhaps just a starting point. What additional information would help you find collaborators or understand someone's work better? We're opening this design process to the open science community. Share what works, what doesn't, what's missing. [@open_science](

🌊 Exciting news! Crowdinblue - a mission-led initiative bridging water solutions with funding - has chosen #Bonfire to build their federated community space! Together, we're designing custom extensions to connect water projects with impact investors and crowdfunding opportunities. All in a federated environment that puts communities and projects first. Welcome to the Bonfire ecosystem, crowdinblue! 💚 Read more about the project: https://crowdinblue.org #CommonsEconomy #WaterJustice #Fediverse

We're experimenting with federated geosocial features in Bonfire, free from surveillance capitalism. Check into your local community garden. Add location to mutual aid requests. Find tools nearby. Imagine your local fablab or community center sharing check-ins, calendars, events, opening hours - all federated. A living hub for what's happening there. 🔧

Taking a quick detour from our 1.0rc3 milestone work! 🛤️ This morning we added a small but meaningful feature: 🔗 Link previews now display the author's fediverse account when available. ➡️ Next up: Author attribution controls in Bonfire's verification settings, so writers can decide exactly how they're credited when their articles travel across the fediverse. ✍️ It will be available in next release to test it out!
