#Fedivision2024 is wrapped and done! This instance and https://fedivision.party have been slipped into quiescent mode. We hope you’ve had fun participating this last month. Please continue to follow this account for further #Fedivision events.
fedi.vision closure announcement
This account, and this instance, will be shutting down at the end of August 2025 before the domain expires.
The Fedi software that powers this instance does not have a self-destruct command, so instead we will delete this account, force an unfollow on other admin accounts, and turn off the server. Other servers will (after about a week) stop communicating with it.
Thanks for the memories, everyone. Be excellent to each other.
@FreakyFwoof Hi, here’s the alt text: “Fedivision song contest banner. The V of Fedivision is the Fediverse pentagram logo.”
The server software for fedi.vision isn’t Mastodon, it’s Takahē, and it was a bug in Takahē that stripped the alt text I wrote for the image. I’m not confident that I can edit a post in Takahē without breaking it and requiring the post to be deleted and redrafted. For that I apologize. The good news is that I’ve found out how to avoid the bug happening again.
@amin More later, don’t want to flood people, but if you’re a musician looking to enter, see https://fedivision.party/
@neonbubble Oh god I forgot the hashtag! How embarrassment! Handing in my Fedi Veteran badge now.
@BorrisInABox Apologies for that; the alt text that I included got stripped because of a bug in the Takahē Fedi server software that runs the server. Alt text: “Fedivision Song Contest logo. The V of Fedivision is the Fediverse pentagram logo.”
@AlsoPaisleyCat @sanfierro I don’t know how good Takahē‘s post editing support is. I’m not willing to risk breaking the post and having to delete-and-redraft it. I understand if the bug I hit means you can’t boost that post. I’ll make another post in a few days, avoiding the bug. ^futzle

@sanfierro Thanks, I had triggered a bug in the Takahē Fedi server running this instance that removed alt text from the image (see other replies in the thread). I’ve found a workaround which I can apply to future messages. ^futzle
@slothrop I tried but it didn’t stick; this instance is Takahē not Mastodon and I may have found a bug. ^futzle
The Fedivision song contest is ON!
What is Fedivision? We are a light-hearted musical competition among amateur musicians on the Fediverse. You can submit one original unreleased piece < 4 minutes long in any genre. In May 2024, we will listen to all the entries and the fediverse votes on the best song!
Now in its fourth year, we have a brand new dedicated instance. Please follow this account to be kept informed. PLEASE BOOST this post so that all your musician friends get the word.
