Anhörung zur Maskenaffäre lässt viele Fragen offen
Eine Befragung der Sonderermittlerin Sudhof sollte Klarheit in die Maskenaffäre um Ex-Gesundheitsminister Spahn bringen. Doch die Opposition ist mit dem Ergebnis unzufrieden - und fordert weiter einen Untersuchungsausschuss.

Back at stretching dyneema rigging
Jane has finished the first 8 chainplate loops in 12mm dyneema for the main mast (we don't need one for the forestay and the inner forestay will be different). Plus she has finished 3.5 of the 4 lower shrouds (also 12mm dyneema). So we are back to stretching them in the garden. This meant I needed to finish the Acetal thimbles that I've been making.

🔥 Bonfire Social 1.0 RC2
We’re pleased to announce Bonfire Social 1.0 Release Candidate 2! This update is all about refining and polishing the experience, fixing bugs, and making Bonfire more enjoyable and reliable for everyone. These improvements come directly from your feedback, bug reports, and real-world testing.
Of course, we couldn’t help ourselves and also snuck in some exciting new features—like long-form article publishing and more feeds customisations, plus plenty of interface refinements for both desktop and mobile.
A huge thank you to everyone who has set up a Bonfire instance, or joined the campground (our local-only testing space) to try out the app. Your suggestions and bug reports have been invaluable as we approach version 1.0. Please keep testing, sharing feedback, and helping us shape the future of federated social spaces!
✨ What’s new and improved?
- Long-form publishing: Going beyond beyond short posts to read and write in-depth articles, ideal for essays, announcements, or detailed content. Article feeds are now available for RSS readers.
- Smarter feeds: New feed options for events, books, and articles help you discover what matters to you most. You can now also filter out your own activities from your feeds when desired.
- Multi-profiles overview: A new navigation menu can display all your profiles with notification indicators, allowing quick profile switching.
- Private by default: New Bonfire instances start as invite-only, giving admins control over membership from day one.
- Interface improvements: We've refined the user experience, enhanced notifications and ensured posts display properly across mobile devices.
- More reliable: Tons of fixes for authentication, media uploads, mentions, moderation, and other core features.
Additional improvements include:
- Better translation and localization workflow
- Smoother OAuth/OpenID login and SSO support
- Updated documentation and guides for admins and contributors
- Enhanced S3 integration for uploads
- Lots of small bug fixes on comment threads, messaging, settings, and more
For a comprehensive list of changes, see the full changelog.
🎪 Community contributions and other initiatives
- We hosted our first install party using coop-cloud, with all participants who followed along successfully deploying their own Bonfire instances.
- Seperately, ozoned from Fireside Fedi livestreamed their installation attempt, surfacing valuable setup challenges. This highlighted the need to simplify Docker deployment and improve documentation. Contributors are welcome to help make this easier!
- Sciety deployed a Bonfire instance as part of their pre-print review project.
- @spark464@spark.box464.social published an article on how to add a weather widget in Bonfire.

🤝 Help needed
As we push toward 1.0, we're facing some specific challenges where community support and contributions would make a real difference:
- DevOps expertise: We need help streamlining the Docker installation process to make Bonfire more accessible to new users. If you have experience with containerisation and deployment workflows, your contributions would be invaluable.
- Elixir developers: Join us in improving Bonfire's stability and performance. We're focused on eliminating bugs and enhancing the core extensions' reliability.
- Financial support: As a small team of two working full-time on Bonfire, we need community support to sustain development. You can contribute through our Open Collective page.
- Federation testing: We're seeking users willing to set up Bonfire instances and try out federation and interoperability with other fediverse platforms. Your real-world testing helps ensure Bonfire works seamlessly across the fediverse.
- Translation: Please join us or share this with your multilingual friends!
These are our most pressing needs as we approach 1.0. If you can help with any of these areas, please get in touch via the fediverse, Matrix chat, or GitHub. Every contribution, big or small, helps make Bonfire better for everyone.
