Ruszyła kolejna fala migracji z X/Twittera, więc dziś w #OkoPress przyglądam się alternatywom:
https://oko.press/ucieczka-z-twittera-przyszlosc-mediow-spolecznosciowych

Co ciekawe, wszystkie – Fediverse, Bluesky, Threads – przynajmniej w jakimś stopniu twierdzą, że są zdecentralizowane. Mówię więc "sprawdzam", razem z @cwebber , @blaine i @ben .

Nie będzie dla nikogo zaskoczeniem, że #Bluesky i Threads mocno naciągają to "zdecentralizowanie." Ale sam fakt, że wszystkie realne alternatywy dla Twittera promują się decentralizacją jest znaczący!


#Bluesky kapcsán annyit, hogy el kell fogadni, hogy twitteren is felnőtt a szüleink FB generációja, ami már nem akar újat tanulni, legyen minden gomb ugyanott, tegyen le mindent eléjük s ennyi.


If you are a Bluesky user, read @Sarah Perez 's excellent article, published on TechChrunch.

I just want to point out that among the "apps" with which you can use #Bluesky there is also #Friendica which currently allows you to publish hypertext references


La guida di Informapirata a Friendica, dedicata a tutti coloro che dal Fediverso vogliono ottenere tutto il possibile.

Un Mastodon con gli steroidi e attualmente l’unica alternativa a Facebook di tutto il Fediverso. Con mille pregi e, soprattutto, mille difetti. E mai nessuno che ci spieghi come utilizzarlo.
Almeno finora…

Can I follow friends on #BlueSky from #Friendica (and specifically from Libranet)? I haven't managed so far. I tried searching for their profile URL with /rss at the end, but nothing is found. I've seen some conversations about this, but couldn't find a way to make it work.

Thanks!


Another week, another increase for @heiseonline

#Mastodon keeps growing (the last time, we got this much #traffic, was at the beginning of the year), #Bluesky, too. No big jumps, but we'll see, where it leads.
#Threads still brings very little, #Twitter stays weak.

As always, this is the traffic to heise.de via the different social media platforms.

Edit: In the graph, Mastodon, Bluesky and Threads are stacked together (as they are they biggest Twitter-alternatives).

2nd Edit: Graph added.

Graph showing traffic to heise.de via different micro blogging platforms, Mastodon with a little increase.
Another graph, showing all the sources of traffic individually.

@helpers Has anyone ever successfully added a rss feed from a bluesky account to their friendica account? What does it look like? I tried to do with a friendica account, but it broke all the timelines. I can't read any posts from anyone I follow now on friendica. #Friendica#Bluesky#NewHere#Friendica#Bluesky#NewHere

The diversity of network and UX types across the fediverse/social web that my little Friendica server sees is astounding. This is just Diaspora and ActivityPub federated content since Bluesky is integrated through a client API not AT. #fediverse #SocialWeb #ActivityPub #diaspora #Bluesky #friendica

On the question of “What’s the plan to make money?”, #bluesky CEO Jay Graeber says:

“We’ve been building marketplaces within the app, essentially. So, we’ve got information marketplaces, moderation marketplaces..”

How can that produce enough revenue to make the VCs happy? Just what kind of information marketplaces might she be thinking of that can produce those results?

I'd like to remind that when you publish a post on Mastodon, it will not only be federated to other Mastodon instances or to the ActivityPub-verse - it will also be accessible and possibly boosted to other networks through Friendica and Hubzilla and both have predated the release of Mastodon #BridgyFed #BlueSky #Mastodon #GDPR #privacy #bridge #proxy #mirror #consent #federation https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy-fed/issues/835

Opt-out is a terrible default and should be reconsidered



Just login and see for yourself how bad the content is. This is Instagram only with more words.

This is yet another social network for content and not for discussion.

Mark Zuckerberg ist unable to re invent Social Media!

But it is able to kill #Twitter and #bluesky ...


Sneak peek at the overhauled Agora client that will support logging in with either your #Mastodon, #Nostr, or #BlueSky account and seeing posts from the other two protocols!

Super awesome to see what’s possible thanks to amazing bridges by @alex and @snarfed.org and @cheeaun for the awesome Phanpy base to build off of


Constantly hearing ”got tired of Mastodon’s technicalities, Bluesky is simple and amazing”.

How we could design Mastodon to be more simple and have less technical-feel to it? UI is one thing, but that will not cut it all. I have probably said this before, but I am starting to believe no matter what we do we can’t ”win”. The narrative might need to change. 🤷‍♂️

A simple #ActivityPub <-> #Bluesky interop MVP I don’t see mentioned a lot is the ability to fully oEmbed an apub/atproto post on its opposite platform. This would allow for a kind of quote-posting across networks.

If that could somehow be combined with a WebMention to inform me that my apub post has been shared elsewhere and vice versa, we’d have significantly greater cross-border connectivity than the status quo.

A Bluesky dev has responded with interest:

#Friendica und #bluesky, hallo @Michael Vogel du schriebst was von bluesky in friendica, ich finde es nur nicht mehr.

Gesehen habe ich, dass ich bluesky einbinden könnte.

Wenn ich den Feed einbette ist er mit in meiner timeline, wie die Nachrichten von allen anderen Instanzen auch?

So wie ich es verstehe, könnte ich von friendica aus, zu bluesky posten, aber das wären dann alle Beiträge?

Danke vorab, für eine Antwort, sonnige Grüße in den Norden 😀

Hey, Fedi peeps!

I'm working on an opinion piece on what the #Fediverse, #BlueSky, and #Nostr can all learn from each other, in terms of features and capabilities.

What would you say is a strength of the Fediverse? What would you say is a weakness / could be better? 🤔


@Jonathan Lamothe There's already a connector addon for #Bluesky contributed by @Michael Vogel that will be released this September.


This cartoon has prophetic characteristics:

The "left" / "liberal " users of #Twitter will fatten #Mastodon user numbers, whereas the the burning bird on the right might yet rise again like the #Phoenix out of the #Birdsite ashes as #Twitter2.0 (aka #Bluesky.)

Thus it is envisaged by #Elmo and his #PayPal, not-my-friend, @ Jack after #Twitters final demise.

Purefied by fire, only right-wing users and easily gullible #ElmoFanboys will remain on #Bluesky.

O #Bluesky trancou a porteira e não vai mais deixar ninguém se cadastrar enquanto resolvem os problemas de desempenho devido ao êxodo de refugiados do #Twitter.

Agora mesmo tendo #convite não vai ser possível criar uma nova conta.

From a preliminary ~12h sample of #bluesky / #atprotocol , a small number of accounts receive most interactions. This is an obvious byproduct of the way the default algorithmic feed prioritizes posts.

- 5% of accounts received 72% of likes, 1% of accounts received 41%
- The top 5% of accounts make 48% of posts
- 37% of accounts receive no interaction
- The median account received 1 like.

Just a quick, incomplete look, but ya looks like an engagement farm
Line graph showing the cumulative sum of likes on the y axis vs. accounts on the x axis. Vertical lines indicate different quantiles of likes per account (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 0.9, 0.95, and 0.99)

The line hovers near zero for the first two-thirds of the graph, but starts to increase around the 0.75 quantile. at 0.9 it is at ~100,000, and then the line rises sharply to its maximum at ~450000 through the 0.95 and 0.99 quantiles. 

If the network was "flat" where everyone received the same amount of interaction, the line would be a straight, diagonal line. The amount of convexity in the line indicates the degree to which the network's interactions are concentrated on the top accounts.


#Bluesky / #ATProtocol is an extremely funny protocol that is explicitly designed to ensure that there are still powerful entities that own your attention. Sure! you can host your own personal data store, but everyone else will be getting your posts through a Big Graph Service that necessarily crawl all posts on the network, so it's actually mostly irrelevant.

https://blueskyweb.xyz/blog/5-5-2023-federation-architecture

Individual users interact with personal data stores (PDS). Those PDS are crawled by Big Graph Services (BGS). BGS then feeds posts to AppViews and other feed generation services. Those feed generation services feed other posts back to your personal data store.


lmao taking a look at #ATProtocol / #Bluesky's implementation of #DID, and I think they missed the "decentralized" part in their "placeholder" DID method.

Your domain's DNS entries just contain a (truncated) hash that then has to be resolved at plc.directory

recall that the DID method (plc) is part of the DID, so a different method (eg. web) is a different DID. to switch, you'd need to set an alsoKnownAs entry. plc only supports AT handles for alsoKnownAs.

https://github.com/bluesky-social/did-method-plc#did-resolution
DID Resolution

PLC DIDs are resolved to a DID document (JSON) by making simple HTTP GET request to the PLC server. The resolution endpoint is: https://plc.directory/:did

The PLC-specific state data (based on the most recent operation) can be fetched as a JSON object at: https://plc.directory/:did/data


checked #bluesky and the mood is almost the same as here, half of the people have no other topic than their sexuality and comments about different others.... 🤷
