A social space for people researching, working with, or just interested in AI!

FAQ

What is Sigmoid Social?

Sigmoid Social is a Mastodon instance for people researching, working on, or just interested in AI. We went live on 11/04/2022.

Who should join Sigmoid Social?

You should join Sigmoid Social if you would like to be part of a Mastodon community primarily focused on discussing AI. We do not gatekeep who can join; it does not matter whether you are a researcher, engineer, hacker, student, artist, or just curious.

Who runs Sigmoid Social?

Sigmoid Social is administered and maintained by The Gradient. The Gradient is a non-profit and volunteer-run organization with the mission of facilitating discussion within the AI community. We were founded in 2017 by a group of students and researchers at the Stanford AI Lab. Our current projects include The Gradient Magazine, The Gradient Podcast, The Update newsletter, and Sigmoid Social.

Should I only post about AI?

You can feel free to toot about anything at all, as long as it complies with the Code of Conduct. We may however ask you to migrate to a different instance if your focus is not AI at all.

Should I only post in English?

This server supports translation, so it is ok to post in other languages than English. But, as English as the primary language here, that should ideally be the primary language you use. If you do post in other languages, please tag your posts with the appropriate language label.

Will you ban me for X?

We will take appropriate moderation measures against any violations of the Code of Conduct. We also reserve the right to take actions in the best interest of the community in situations we deem harmful but do not clearly violate the Code of Conduct. We will generally lean towards promoting free expression and issuing warning and restrictions rather than bans, but this is absolutely not a free-speech-above-all platform.

How can I help cover costs?

You can support us on Patreon or Kofi!

How can I share suggestions for Sigmoid Social?

You can message The Gradient via Mastodon, email, Twitter, or pigeon.

Where is my data stored?

Sigmoid Social is hosted by MastHost, a fully managed Mastodon hosting service provided by WAP – Web Access Platforms. WAP is a one-person company 100% owned and administrated by Hugo Gameiro. All data storage and processing is done through MastHost.

What happens if The Gradient can no longer maintain Sigmoid Social?

In the case that our current team can no longer run Sigmoid Social, we will attempt to transfer control of it to another non-profit entity within the AI community. If we are unable to do this, we will announce the closure of Sigmoid Social within at least 30 days to allow users to transfer their accounts to other Mastodon instances.

Can you access my private DMs?

The only way we can access private communications from Sigmoid Social is through exporting the database stored by MastoHost. We will do this periodically for the purpose of storing backups, and in case we have to migrate to another hosting solution. We will not inspect the database for any other reasons. Regardless, we recommend not sharing any private or secure information on this platform.

What is your policy in AI Art and NFTs?

This instance is a great fit for anyone who wants to post AI art - we fully support it. We are also OK with NFT promotion, as long as it relates to AI art and is not spammy.

Why does the banner spell out "Sigmioid"

We generated our banner using MidJourney (a text-to-image AI tool), and intentionally picked out an image that contained a typo as a little in-joke about these tools.

Recommended Practices & Mastodon tips

Here are some recommended practices for helping make Sigmoid Social a great place for everyone here:

• Browse the local feed when starting out. Mastodon has three types of feeds: home (people or hashtags you follow), local (all posts from this instance), and federated (all posts from this instance and any users from other instances that are follow by anyone on here). Until you follow some people or hashtags, the local feed is your best bet for discovering content.
• Use hashtags. Mastodon does not have an algorithmic feed, so hashtags are often used for finding content relevant to your interests. So, using hashtags will make it easier for others to find and follow you, and for you to find others as well. We list a set of recommended hashtags below!
• Use the unlisted privacy setting in replies and threads. The default post privacy in Mastodon is 'global', which gets posted to the local timeline, whereas 'unlisted' is only shown when browsing the replies to a given post. Using unlisted for most replies and threads makes the timeline less cleaner and nicer to browse.
• Look into the non-official apps for Mastodon. There are some apps not made by Mastodon that provide an arguably better frontend. Examples include Tusky and Toot!
• Consider using content warnings/content labels. The CW button when writing posts stands for 'content warning', and then you include one in your post only the text for it is shown unless a user presses a button to see the rest of the post. We recommend using it for sensitive content, but you can also use them like a subject line or TLDR as well!
• Explore Mastodon notification options. Mastodon allows you to mute various types of notifications, which can make it easier to focus on just replies and ignore favorites or boosts if you prefer to do so.
• Report any content you think might violate the code of conduct. Moderation on Mastodon primarily relies on the users reporting objectionable content, at which point our mods can take care of it. Reporting bad content will make the experience on Sigmoid Social better for everyone!
• Aim to be generally civil and friendly :)

Hashtags

Code of Conduct

Sigmoid Social is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone.

We want this community to maintain a fun, pleasant, and harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion. In keeping with these aims, we do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. Anyone who violates this code of conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from Sigmoid Social at the discretion of the organizers of the Gradient.

Harassment, including the following activities, will not be tolerated:

• Offensive comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, neuro(a)typicality, physical appearance, body size, age, race, or religion.
• Unwelcome comments regarding a person’s lifestyle choices and practices, including those related to food, health, parenting, drugs, and employment.
• Deliberate misgendering or use of ‘dead’ or rejected names.
• Gratuitous or off-topic sexual images or behaviour in spaces where they’re not appropriate.
• Physical contact and simulated physical contact (eg, textual descriptions like "hug" or “backrub“) without consent or after a request to stop.
• Threats of violence.
• Incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm.
• Deliberate intimidation.
• Stalking or following.
• Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity for harassment purposes.
• Sustained disruption of discussion.
• Unwelcome sexual attention.
• Pattern of inappropriate social contact, such as requesting/assuming inappropriate levels of intimacy with others. Sigmoid Social is intended to be a welcoming platform, so while friendships in support of research are encouraged, note that Sigmoid Social is not a dating platform. Flirting or other unprofessional behavior may make someone uncomfortable. If a member requests another member to stop this type of behavior and it continues, it will be considered harassment.
• Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease.
• Deliberate "outing" of any aspect of a person’s identity without their consent except as necessary to protect vulnerable people from intentional abuse.
• Publication of non-harassing private communication.
• Impersonation with the intent to deceive users (satire is ok).
• Explicitly rude or degrading remarks in general.

Reporting

If you are being harassed by a user of Sigmoid Social, notice that someone else is being harassed, believe confidentiality has been violated, or have any other concerns, please report this via the standard Mastodon tools. We will respond as promptly as we can.

organizers reserve the right to exclude people from Sigmoid Social based on their past behavior, including behavior outside Sigmoid Social.

We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. At our discretion, we may publicly name a person about whom we’ve received harassment complaints, or privately warn third parties about them, if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of the members Sigmoid Social or the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent.

Consequences

Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

If a participant engages in harassing behavior, the organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from Sigmoid Social and identification of the participant as a harasser to other members of Mastodon.

We are a LGBTQIA+ (and allies) social instance of Mastodon. Pretty chill. We love gaming (gayming), tech (mostly), art, and meaningful discussions.

We don't allow bigotry, homophobia, transphobia, or racism and we will block and report those accounts we find.

anti-social.online is managed by volunteers and funded by @GoTakeAKnapp. If you want to support this server, you can donate to https://liberapay.com/GoTakeAKnapp

1. We expect you to be decent to others. You don't have to like other people, but we do not tolerate hate speech, homo/transphobia, fascist rhetoric or anti-science talking points.
2. You can block people. If someone posts something you really don't like, block them. If it is something that goes against the ToS/Rules, report them, then block them.
3. This server permits NSFW. That being said, nothing illegal should be posted, and content should be flagged as sensitive. We do log, and monitor, so if something is posted that shouldn't be, we will pass information to the authorities.

6. Content Warning policy. NSFW and lewd content must be set as unlisted or followers only in addition to proper tagging in the CW.

8. Bots must be approved and must be marked as bots after approval. Failure to do so will result in the account being terminated.
9. Bots must serve a purpose for the people on the instance. Examples of good bots include posting pictures from NASA, and posting news from local sources.

podcasts.social - Mastodon für Podcasts

Bitte sowohl dieses ganze Dokument als auch die Nutzungs- und Datenschutzhinweise lesen, bevor ihr euch einen Account anlegt. / Please read the whole document and the Terms of Service & Data Regulations befor you register for an account. There is also an English version. An wen richtet sich diese Instanz?

• Diese Instanz bietet Podcaster*innen einen Platz für ihre Sendungen im Mastodon-Netzwerk. Die Instanz ist ausdrücklich nicht für persönliche Accounts gedacht, sondern nur für solche, die eine einzelne Sendung repräsentieren. Momentan ist die Registrierung geschlossen.
• Im größten Fall entwickelt sich hier ein Verzeichnis, das einen Überblick über die Podcastwelt im Fediverse bietet. Im kleinsten ist das einfach eine weitere Instanz, auf der die Podcaster*innen, die das möchten, ihre Sendungsaccounts pflegen können.
• Zumindest vorerst bitte wirklich nur für Podcasts Accounts erstellen, die auch euch gehören!
• Und: Die Seite ist - im Sinne des Föderalismus - vor allem für die Podcaster*innen gedacht, die aktuell den Betrieb einer eigenen Instanz NICHT leisten können. Große Institutionen und Verlage möchten wir freundlich darauf hinweisen, dass eine eigene Instanz der grundlegenden Idee des Fediverse zuträglicher wäre, als hier einen Account zu eröffnen.
• Falls ihr ganz neu bei Mastodon seid und euch die Konzepte des Fediverse nicht geläufig sind, gibt es am Ende dieser Seite eine kleine Hilfestellung.

FAQ & Hinweise

Ich möchte hier auch einen Account, geht das?
Man kann die Registrierung ausfüllen und sich damit um einen Account bewerben. Das Moderations-Team schaut sich zeitnah an, ob euer Account alle Bedingungen erfüllt und ob die Instanz gerade ausreichend Ressourcen hat und entscheidet dann darüber.

Falls ihr nicht zugelassen werdet, kann das eine Vielzahl von (technischen, organisatorischen oder inhaltlichen) Gründen haben, bitte seht uns nach, dass wir keine ausführlichen Absagen schreiben. Wir verweisen vorsichtshalber auf Punkt 1 der Nutzungsbedingungen. Hinterlegt in der Bewerbung unbedingt einen Link zu eurem Podcast!

Ihr könnt eurer Sache weiter helfen, in dem ihr in eurer Bewerbung kurz beschreibt, wer ihr seid und was ihr für einen Podcast macht. Falls ihr jemanden kennt, der schon einen Account auf dieser Instanz hat, kann dieser Account gerne eine DM an @cvd schicken und für euch bürgen. Podcasts, die nicht ausschließlich von weißen, alten Männern betrieben werden, werden bevorzugt zugelassen.

Was genau wird von einem Account erwartet?
Vorschrift ist nur, dass euer Account wie euer Podcast heisst. Das heisst bei der Registrierung ist der "Benutzername" der Name eures Podcasts. Als sinnvoll hat sich erwiesen, wenn ihr in eurer Bio nicht nur den Link zu eurer Podcast-Webseite, sondern auch den Link zu dem RSS-Feed eures Podcasts explizit hinterlegt. Für die Bio empfiehlt sich eine Kurzbeschreibung des Podcasts. Juristisch gesehen sollte euer Podcast wahrscheinlich auch ein Link zu einem Impressum enthalten.

Welche Arten von Inhalten erwartet ihr?
Einerseits wollen wir euch das nicht vorschreiben. Andererseits aber ein guter Zeitpunkt in Erinnerung zu rufen, für wen diese Instanz gedacht ist: Für Accounts, die dafür gemacht sind, dass sie von den Hörer*innen eures Podcasts abonniert werden.

Was sind eure offiziellen Kommunikationskanäle?
Wir empfehlen euch den beiden Accounts @cvd (Inhaltliches, Organisatorisches, Moderation) und @engineroom (Infrastruktur, Bugs, Downtimes) zu folgen. Wir empfehlen auch diesen Accounts mit einem Account zu folgen, den ihr regelmäßig lest - das muss nicht unbedingt euer Podcast-Account auf dieser Plattform sein.

Und wie genau bekomme ich jetzt meine Folgen hier in den Account?
Leider gibt es keine uns bekannte gute und komfortable Möglichkeit, das automatisch aus einem RSS-Feed zu befüllen. (Falls ihr eine kennt, sagt uns Bescheid!) Ein erster hilfreicher Schritt ist aber das semiautomatische Tool mastorss von eazy.

Ich habe Folgen-Toots gesehen, die direkt einen Player enthalten, kann ich das auch haben?
Im Prinzip ja, aber wir können da nicht weiterhelfen. Ob der Toot einen Player anzeigt oder nicht, liegt daran auf welcher Plattform ihr euren Podcast hostet. Soweit wir das erkennen können, sind die Toots, die einen Player enthalten alle mit Podlove gehostete Podcasts und haben noch ein extra Social Plugin.

Kann ich einen bestehenden Podcast-Account von einer anderen Instanz hierher umziehen?
Im Prinzip ja, aber das geht nicht komplett. Mastodon erlaubt es einen alten Account auf eine neue Instanz umzuleiten, die Follower*innen dahin zu verschieben und die Folgschaften mitzunehmen. Sämtliche Inhalte gehen aber verloren bzw. verbleiben auf dem alten Account. Wenn das für euch interessant ist, findet ihr hier eine Anleitung. In der Anleitung fehlt, wie man seine Folgschaften per .csv exportiert oder importiert. Falls ihre eine bessere Anleitung kennt, sagt uns gerne Bescheid!

Ich bin Podcast-Hörer*in. Was ist mit mir?
Diese Instanz ist tatsächlich nicht für Hörer*innen-Accounts gedacht, sie ist für Podcast-Accounts gedacht, denen ihr folgen könnt. Die grundlegende Idee ist, dass die Podcaster*innen euch (in ihren Podcasts?) sagen, wo ihr sie findet. Falls ihr nach neuen Podcasts stöbern wollt, könnt ihr hier Accounts entdecken oder hier in aktuellen Posts stöbern.

Warum nehmt ihr denn nicht Castropod oder Funkwhale?
Diese Instanz ist nicht zum förderierten Podcast-Hosting gedacht. Diese Instanz ist für alle gedacht, die ihren Podcast begleitend im Fediverse repräsentieren wollen, ohne ihr bestehendes "normales" Podcast-Setup ändern zu müssen.

Wer pflegt diese Community?

• Die Software, auf der diese Instanz aufbaut, ist open source und wird auf Servern in Fankreich betrieben. Diese Instanz wird von Marcus Richter über masto.host betrieben.

Regeln / Code of Conduct

"Seid vorzüglich zueinander" ist einfacher gesagt als getan und bedeutet für verschiedene Menschen unterschiedliche Dinge. Die folgenden Regeln sind eine (nicht erschöpfende) Liste von Verhaltensweisen, die nach Ermessen der Instanzadministratoren zum Löschen von Toots oder zum Aussetzen von Konten auf dieser Instanz führen können.

Bitte meldet Verhalten, das Euch stört. Wir werden den Bericht vertraulich behandeln.

• Wir tolerieren keine Belästigung, Stalking und Doxxing.
• Wir tolerieren keinen Rassismus, Sexismus, verbalen Missbrauch, Diskriminierung von Geschlecht und sexuellen Minderheiten oder die Unterstützung eines solchen Verhaltens.
• Wir tolerieren keine gewalttätige nationalistische Propaganda, keine Nazi-Symbolik oder die Förderung der Ideologie des Nationalsozialismus.
• Wendet Euch nicht an Accounts, die deutlich gemacht haben, dass sie keinen Kontakt wollen. Dazu gehören auch (Anstiftung und Verabredung zur) massenhaften Interaktion oder Hetze gegen solche Accounts. (Dogpiling/Brigading).
• Beiträge mit nicht jugendfreiem Inhalt müssen markiert werden
• Werbeanzeigen müssen mit dem Hashtag #werbung gekennzeichnet werden und dürfen nicht übermäßig oder automatisiert sein.
• Bots dürfen nur dann mit einem Account interagieren, wenn sie von diesem Benutzer dazu aufgefordert werden.
• Wenn Ihr hier mit hoher Frequenz posten müsst, stellt bitte Eure Beiträge auf nicht gelistet ein, damit die lokale Timeline lesbar bleibt.
• In Diskussionen bitte höflich bleiben, beleidigt keine Leute, mit denen Ihr schreibt. Setzt Ironie, Sarkasmus oder ähnliche Sprachweisen mit Bedacht ein - sie übersetzen oft nicht gut in die geschriebene Sprache und neigen dazu, Diskussionen oder Missverständnisse zu eskalieren.

Erste Schritte

• Mastodon lässt sich im Web-Browser sowohl auf dem Desktop als auch mobil gut nutzen. Es gibt aber auch eine Reihe guter Apps, mit denen man beispielsweise Notifications gesendet bekommt. Die bekanntesten sind hier zu finden: https://joinmastodon.org/apps
• Die grundlegenden Konzepte sind sehr ähnlich zu Twitter. Es gibt aber ein paar markante Unterschiede, die einen zivilisierten Gemeinschaftsdialog fördern sollten. Die Besonderheiten sind hier gut dargestellt: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/07/cage-the-mastodon
• Eine weitere sehr gute Einführung darüber, was Mastodon ist und wie man am besten einstiegen kann, bietet der Artikel "Mastodon statt Twitter? Was Musk-Flüchtige in dem alternativen Sozialen Medium erwartet".
• Es ist zugegebenermaßen wahrscheinlich auch so, dass sich diese Instanz nicht als ersten Schritt ins Fediverse anbietet. Die Empfehlung wäre Erfahrungen mit einem (vielleicht temporären?) persönlichen Account zu sammeln und wenn man ein Gefühl für das Fediverse hat, hier einen Account für den eigenen Podcast zu erstellen. Einen guten Leitfaden für einen Einstieg bietet der Artikel "So klappt der Umzug auf Mastodon".

About podcasts.social

Who is this instance for?

• This instance provides podcasters with a space for their shows on the Mastodon network. The instance is explicitly not intended for personal accounts, only for those representing a single show. Registration is currently closed.
• If grown to its largest, this will become a directory that provides an overview of the podcast world in the Fediverse. At its smallest, this is simply another instance where podcasters who wish to do so can maintain their show accounts.
• At least for now, please only create accounts for podcasts that are yours.
• In the spirit of federalism, this site is primarily intended for podcasters who CANNOT afford to run their own instance. We would like to point out to large institutions and publishers that having their own instance would be more conducive to the idea of the Fediverse.
• If you are new to Mastodon and not familiar with the concepts of the Fediverse, please refer to the tips at the bottom of this page.

FAQ & Advice

How do I open an account on here?
You can fill in the registration form to apply for an account. The moderation team will check if you meet all requirements and if our instance has enough available resources before making a decision.

A refusal can be due to a variety of reasons, technical, organizational or content-related. Unfortunately, we cannot provide a detailed reasoning. Please also refer to section 1 of the Terms of Use. Be sure to include a link to your podcast in your application!

You can help our decision by briefly describing in your application who you are and what type of podcast you make. In case you know someone who already has an account on this instance, that person can send a DM to @cvd and vouch for you. Podcasts that aren't run exclusively by old white men will be given priority for approval.

What exactly is expected of an account?
The only requirement is that your account is named like your podcast: When you register, the "user name" is the name of your podcast. It is useful to include in your bio: the link to your podcast website, the RSS feed and a short description of the show. You might also want to link to a legal notice providing the publisher's details.

What types of content do you expect?
On the one hand, we don't want to impose anything. On the other hand, this is a good time to remember who this instance is for: show accounts wanting to interact with listeners.

What are your official communication channels?
We recommend you follow these two accounts: @cvd (content, organization, moderation) and @engineroom (infrastructure, bugs, downtime). We recommend you follow these accounts from an account you read regularly (it doesn't have to be your podcast account on this instance).

So how exactly do I get my episodes into an account here?
Unfortunately, we know of no good and convenient way to automatically populate it from an RSS feed. (If you do, let us know!) But a first helpful step is the semi-automatic tool mastorss provided by eazy.

I've seen episode toots that include a player, can I have that too?
Basically yes, but we can't help there. Whether a toot shows a player or not depends on the platform you host your podcast on. As far as we can tell, toots show a player when the podcast is hosted by Podlove and uses an additional social plugin

Can I migrate an existing podcast account from another instance?
Essentially yes, but there are some limitations. Mastodon allows you to redirect an existing account to a new instance maintaining followers and followings. However, all content will remain on the old account. If you are interested in moving, see here for instructions.

I am a podcast listener. Can I get an account, too?
This instance is actually NOT for listener accounts, but for show accounts that you can follow. The basic idea is that podcasters will tell you where to find them, e.g. on their podcast. If you want to browse for new podcasts, you can discover accounts here or see what our podcasters are posting about right now here.

Why don't you use Castropod or Funkwhale?
This instance is NOT meant for federated podcast hosting. This instance is meant for anyone who wants to represent their podcast in the Fediverse in an accompanying way, without having to change their existing podcast setup.



Who maintains this community?

• This instances is based on open-source software and hosted in France. This instance is provided by Marcus Richter via masto.host.

Rules / Code of Conduct

""Be excellent to each other" is easier said than done, and means different things to different people. The following rules are a (non-exhaustive) list of behaviour that may result in the deletion of toots or suspension of accounts on this instance at the discretion of the administrators

Please report behavior that bothers you. We will keep reports confidential.

• We do not tolerate harassment, stalking, or doxxing.
• We do not tolerate racism, sexism, verbal abuse, gender and sexual minority discrimination, or the support of such behaviour.
• We do not tolerate violent nationalist propaganda, Nazi symbolism, or the promotion of Nazi ideology.
• Do not contact accounts that have made it clear that they do not want to be contacted. This includes (inciting and conspiring to) mass interaction or incitement against such accounts. (Dogpiling/Brigading).
• Posts with adult content must be flagged.
• Paid advertisement must be marked with #advertising and not be excessive or automated.
• Bots may only interact with an account when prompted by that user.
• If you post here with high frequency, please set your posts to unlisted to keep the local timeline readable.
• Please remain polite in discussions, do not insult people you are chatting with. Use irony, sarcasm, or similar language wisely - it often doesn't translate well into written language and tends to escalate discussions or lead to misunderstandings.

First steps

• Mastodon is easy to use in a web browser on both desktop and mobile. However, there are also a number of good apps that can be used to receive notifications, for example. Some of the most popular ones can be found here.
• The basic concepts of Mastodon are very similar to Twitter. However, there are a few striking differences that ought to encourage a civilized community discourse. The specifics are well laid out here.
• Another very good introduction to what Mastodon is and how best to get started is ["A futuristic Mastodon introduction for 2021".
• Admittedly, this instance might not be a good first step into the Fediverse. It's recommended that you gain experience with a (perhaps temporary?) personal account, and once you have a feel for the Fediverse, create an account for your own podcast here. A good guide for getting started can be found on Fedi.Tips.
