Meta and friends – like Mastodon and Vivaldi – form Social Web Foundation.
May I be the first to say:
Fuck the Social Web Foundation.
https://socialwebfoundation.org
I am so fucking sick of this bullshit happening over and over again. I’d say they’re useful idiots but, let’s face it, Mastodon aren’t idiots. Vivaldi aren’t idiots. They’re smart folks. They know full well what Meta is. They clearly just don’t give a shit.

Mozilla decided to invest in AI rather than the #fediverse
Mozilla.social will shut down the Mastodon instance...
Ich möchte gerne einige meiner #Kontakte auf das #Fediverse aufmerksam machen - Kontakte, die das Fediverse wohl (noch) nicht kennen dürften. Kann mir jemand eine Art deutschsprachige #Einführung empfehlen?
Und nein, ich meine auch nicht, dass man erst auf eine Antwort klicken muss, um den kompletten Beitrag zu sehen.
Hat sich da inzwischen was getan?
Hey there 👋
If you have any questions about how to use Mastodon or the rest of the Fediverse, it is totally fine to ask! I'm an actual human being here, and I'll try to help answer any questions if I can!
I didn't set up this account to be one-directional or mass audience, it's meant to be about helping people directly. 🙂
"We want to bring organisations and content creators into the Fediverse, step by step."
Our Foundation co-founder has just published an interesting piece on how we're working to help organisations and content creators find their way to the Fediverse!
For more information on what we plan to do as a charity and how Patchwork, a new service we'll be launching soon, can help 👇

In a Fedicentric world, everything revolves around Mastodon. Mastodon has around 80% of the monthly active users on the Fediverse. Mastodon sets the standard, and is where the action is.Michael Foster (Patchwork Blog)
Improvements for TROM.tf :
Our TROM Social first page (login) is not anymore just an empty page with a simple login, it provides you a peek into the fediverse:
Now you can see what's going on on the network, maybe to convince you to join 😀. It took a lot of CSS and HMTL gymnastics to achieve this. From my tests on desktop with mobile emulators all looks good on mobile, but for some reason when I check it on my phone it does not look as it should....I shall investigate.
Implemented some dark toggles for some of our services, where it was doable, such as Call
Search
Speed
And made our TROM Call, Jitsi Meet, more reliable.
Lastly we spent many days trying to figure out how to make our Peertube Live work better. Hours of tests, lots of logs. Hopefully we can make it more reliable.

@Tio
Youtube knipst euch gerade euer liebstes Spielzeug zum Teilen von Videos aus.
Du bist noch nicht betroffen? Warte noch ein wenig ab. Schon bald ist es soweit und dann wird auch euer Node gesperrt sein.
Wechselt daher jetzt auf die vorhandenen Tools des Fediverse.

wenn der Inhalt indirekt von Youtube kommen soll.
Es ist Zeit sich ein wenig zu bewegen.
Endlich können wir es richtig ankündigen:
Am Samstag den 4. Mai veranstalten wir das erste #Fediverse #Community Meeting #Ruhr in #Bochum.
Mehr Informationen findet ihr dazu auf https://fedimeet.ruhr.social und unter dem Account @fedimeet .
Seid dabei beim #FediMeetRuhr24
Don't be too hasty! That would be unfair. Let's see how well it integrates first. ☝️😌

Thank you so much Eduard for becoming the 77th supporter of TROM! We run a unique fundraiser for TROM in that we need only 200 people to donate 5 Euros a month in order to support us for the long run.
Distributed support so that it won't put a big toll on anyone, and a limited goal so that we do not get rich.
If you appreciate the so many things that we do at TROM (see https://www.tromsite.com) then please consider supporting us.

Mich nervt die ganze Diskussion um Threads.
ActivityPub ist ein offenes Protokoll und jeder kann mitmachen.
Dann sollen die Admins der jeweiligen Instanzen bitte auch die diversen Mailanbieter für die Registrierung neuer Accounts sperren. Ist im Prinzip das gleiche. Große Konzerne die fragwürdig mit den Daten umgehen. Macht aber NIEMAND! Selbst wenn man eigene Mailserver betreibt, käme niemand auf die Idee Gmail zu sperren.....
Gmail
Outlook.com
Yahoo Mail
GMX
WEB.DE
Mail.de
Freenetmail
Telekom Mail
AOL Mail
What we have in the #Fediverse today:
1. Facebook-like (Friendica, Hubzilla, Streams, Social home, Misskey & forks)
2. Twitter-like (Mastodon & forks, Pleroma & forks, Threads)
3. Goodreads-like (BookWyrm)
4. YouTube/Vimeo-like (PeerTube)
5. Reddit/Quora/Stackexchange-like (Lemmy, Kbin, Mbin, Piefed)
6. Podcasting
7. Medium-like (Write freely, Plume)
8. Instagram/Flickr-like (Pixelfed)
9. Audio hosting (Funkwhale)
10. Blogger (WordPress and Drupal via plugin; also GoHugo)
Coming soon!
1. TikTok-like (Loops by Pixelfed)
Someone working on:
* Tumblr-like
Skin-based:
* Forum-like skin that turns a Lemmy instance into a "forums".
What else is the Fediverse network missing?
* An easy way to pull in data from databases like TMDB, and display it like a widget with necessary information visible (instead of a link-type with only a summary of the description).
* A way to show what we are currently listening, watching, and reading, everytime we update our, say, BookWyrm or Goodreads profile. Maybe as an info minibar in our profile.
We can also use LibreFM and LastFM for the listening part.

My tiny #ActivityPub server is now a massive... 64KB.
Yup. Kilobytes.
* It can send posts with attached images & alt text.
* Reply to posts with a proper thread.
* Read replies sent to it.
* Follow #Fediverse accounts and see their posts & edits.
* You can follow it.
* Hell, it even does HTTP Message Signature Verification!
All of this in a single PHP file. No database, no Docker, no dependencies, no AI.

Mastodon.social rolling out the red carpet for Threads is like an independent shop inviting a supermarket to set up next door.
But what’s done is done. And I’ve wasted enough words on this whole sorry affair over the last year.
So this is the last you’ll hear about it from me. When, eventually, you’re writing your “what went wrong?” articles, feel free to look up what I’d written on the issue back when.

The Fediverse is Already Dead
https://nora.codes/post/the-fediverse-is-already-dead/
Despite the grim title, it's a wonderful, thoughtful, hopeful piece by @noracodes on what fedi was and what it has become. And what the future can hold.
Highly recommended. Especially for those of us who are, like me, struggling with what "The Fediverse" is supposed to mean these days.
The Fediverse is Already Dead
The Fediverse is not dying, nor is it crumbling. As an ideoform in the collective consciousness of the 'net, the Fediverse is already dead.Leonora Tindall
I created an account on the Fediverse
*because* it is not Facebook,
*because* it is different,
*because* it is better,
*because* it doesn’t have ads,
*because* it is more respectful of its users,
*because* it doesn’t have an algorithm deciding what I see,
and *because* is has much better ethics and moderation.
I really hope it stays that way
We want to clarify some recent allegations regarding Threads hiding posts containing "pixelfed"
Several users pointed out they were unable to reproduce this, leading us to believe it was a glitch.
We're happy to see Threads open up federation, and look forward to working together to build a better fediverse.

Our Frienica instance got updated to the latest stable and all of our custom themes were updated and we added 2 more: Brown and Grey.
Go to Settings - Display to test them out.
They will be shared with the Friendica's developers if they want to include them in the default Friendica's themes or get some ideas about future changes.
Big thanks to these people who create Friendica for being so awesome and for keeping Friendica so useful and feature-rich!
We started this account less than 6 months ago. It's going pretty well – thanks to you: 4.2k followers, lots of interactions, questions, and comments. 🎉
A couple of weeks ago, the European Broadcasting Union (#EBU) asked us to write a guest article about our experience with #Mastodon / the #Fediverse, explain the basics, and point out the advantages.
Challenge accepted. 👍
So here's the finished post by @lxplm, hot off the #blog press. ⌨️

In this guest post, Alexander Plaum, Innovation Manager at Deutsche Welle (DW), writes about his team's exceptionally positive experience with microblogging in the Fediverse.www.ebu.ch
We provide Mastodon/Peertube/Nextcloud/Friendica and more, as a service. For a cost. Just order and have your own instance, no headaches.
I always do trade-free stuff, but since I am trapped in this trade-system and I do not get enough financial support via the projects that I do, I have to also trade a bit.
WebApe https://webape.site/ is what I do to trade. Basically we create websites, install Mastodon/Friendica instances, Peertube, Nextcloud, etc.. We setup, manage, update, customize.
We try to do something decent and make some money with that, to then support our free projects.
So if you want a Mastodon instance for example, or any other website/service, please see https://webape.site/. I have lowered the prices now, so a Mastodon instance starts at 30 Euros per month.
We will take a limited amount of websites so to not overwhelm ourselves.
Please share if you think others might be interested. In a way, we can make the fediverse more known and accessible via the WebServices that we provide.

Ich habe gesehen das @Stephanie Henkel 😛d: :af: bei den Chemnitzer Linuxtagen jetzt am Wochenende ist und einen Vortrag zum Fediverse hält. Es werden doch bestimmt noch ein paar andere Menschen aus dem Fediverse da sein oder?
Was haltet ihr von einem kurzen Feditreff als spontanes Addon beim CLT?
Etwas vom Dümmsten, was ich schon gelesen habe: Leider kann ich deinen Post nicht weiter teilen, da kein Alt-Text enthalten ist. Als ob ich an einer Weiterverbreitung interessiert wäre. Tsss. 🙄

Fediverse Spam - Ideen
What we can learn from the Fediverse spam for Codeberg — Codeberg News
At Codeberg, we want to join the Fediverse, the ActivityPub-powered world...blog.codeberg.org
@grin Ahh! It is Instagram's answer to X/Twitter.
Threads is currently testing ActivityPub/Fediverse support. Many if their devs, and some personalities like @timothyjchambers ( @tchambers ) already have it activated.
As per Instagram's CEO, the Fediverse feature will be opt-in for Threads accounts. We'll probably see less than half of Threads community in the #fediverse.
