# summary
Yes, that @oliphant@oliphant.social, now running olifant.social on a droplet.

I sometimes work for the fedi and code stuff. I write about blocklists, and island networks and don't like nazis. I'm unfortunately a US citizen. Vegan for the animals and environment, not to lecture you with.

I stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦 , Palestine 🇵🇸, and Canada 🇨🇦, for the sovereignty of Greenland, for the rights of the trans community :Flag_Trans:, as I stand with any group denied rights or bullied by an aggressor, I oppose and will always oppose all wars of aggression regardless of rationale or excuse; and while my government is overrun with Nazis, I also stand against it.

I'm also a native of Minnesota, and fuck ICE.

Things I've Made/Am Making:

Posty - Mastodon (and Pixelfed) export to static HTML site generator!

Pelago - Community moderation, island management, allowlists, blocklists, and island networks. All the stuff I wish had already existed for managing allowlists and creating easy networks between GTS islands, via the use of a single subscribeable feed. It also integrates with the FIRES protocol.

FediCheck - Subscribeable Fediblockhole that pushes blocks to your Mastodon instance. This one is not open source (at least not yet, but I do have the code and permission to open-source it, so that's coming.) I did some contract work to create this originally for IFTAS, but now I'm trying to find the time to take the code and properly open-source it.

I also host a few things as public services for others. That means you! Use them!

FIRES - Island One - Composeable Moderation for the Fediverse

Blocklists - A mirror site for blocklists, including an "ad hoc" blocklist I have for my own use, stuff from fediblock or the like. The Tier0 unified list is there, too.

Posty - The Live Version - Turns a Mastodon or Pixelfed archive (whatever that looks like today) into a static HTML site.

Pelago - On the Web - Community Moderation, FIRES server, and Island Network manager

Darkwire - E2E encrypted chat in-browser, ephemeral, and everything gets deleted when the last person leaves the room. (I did not make this)

Phanpy - Island One - This is currently pointed at a dev version of Phanpy with local-only post support for GoToSocial.

De-Disinfo - Culture hacking, countering disinfo, cataloging the disappeared

Lingva - Basically a proxy to Google Translate, but without the tracking.

Note: Only Posty, 'Pelago and De-Disinfo are made by me, I can't take credit for the others.
