@taschenorakel ich schrieb ja nicht davon, das Mastodon unfrei sei (die Problematik die ich mit Mastodon sehe ist tatsächlich eine andere die ich hier aber gar nicht unbedingt aufmachen möchte). Ich schrieb nur dass Mastodon KEIN Netzwerk ist, ganz egal wie oft dieses Framing aus marketinggründen von Gargon auch an jeder Stelle verbreitet wird. Leider verfängt das sehr, was der Dezentralität des Fediverse entgegen läuft.

Um auf den Punkt zu kommen:
Mastodon ≠ Fediverse das freie Netzwerk ist Das #Fediverse und Masto ist da nur eine der Plattformen, die hier miteinander kommunizieren, auch wenn das aus der Mastodonperspektive leider teilweise gezielt verschleiert wird.

Hello ! Aurions-nous quelque part un panorama du #fediverse qui soit suffisamment didactique ?

Πιο πολύ από ποτέ είναι η ώρα να μιλήσουμε για το #fediverse το #ελεύθερο_λογισμικό το GNU/Linux την #κρυπτογράφηση και τα ζητήματα γύρω από την #ΤΝ ( #AI ).
Και η συζήτηση δεν πρέπει να μείνει στο αφηρημένο καλύτερο/χειρότερο αλλά για τον κεντρικό ρόλο της τεχνολογίας στην ελευθερία και την δημοκρατία.
Για το πως το ποιος την ελέγχει καθορίζει τις ζωές μας.
Το που θα τραβήξει καθένας/καθεμία την γραμμή είναι δική του υπόθεση, αλλά το να οργανωθούμε γύρω από αυτά τα ζητήματα είναι μονόδρομος.

Good morning, friends of the #BSDCafe and the entire #Fediverse,
it's Wednesday, the day of the Sea. Let’s begin this new day by focusing on the beauty of nature, forgetting for a moment the problems of life and the world.

Because we are alive, now.

Finally, after a 42 minute delay, I am on the train to Brussels and moving. Hopefully the rest of the day will move a bit more quickly.

Good morning #fediverse and #tzag to all.

'Decentralized Social Media Is the Only Alternative To the Tech Oligarchy'

#BlueskyATProtocol #UserOwnership #BigTechThreat #Fediverse #BuildAlternatives

https://tech.slashdot.org/story/25/01/21/2252212/decentralized-social-media-is-the-only-alternative-to-the-tech-oligarchy

I've made a final decision on it: I am leaving Facebook and Instagram. I have barely used them for 2.5 years, and they add no value to my life or my relationships. I am working to get a copy of my data and then I will shut them down.

At that point, my devotion to the #fediverse will be almost total. The only social network I will still be on is LinkedIn, if you don't count YouTube (but I run a PeerTube instance, so....)

Hey #Fediverse, is anyone else having trouble getting @bsky.brid.gy to work? Earlier today I followed #Bridgy and it worked fine, however on my new (and permanent) #fosstodon account, following Bridgy does nothing. No follow back, no private mention, no indication of a bridged account existing on Bluesky, no nothing. I don't see any relevant issues on Github, and Bridgy isn't blocked by Fosstodon either. I'm stumped, nothing is happening and no explanation as to why.

I finally got around to financially supporting 404 Media because they are doing great work.

"It is possible to build alternatives to Elon Musk’s X, Mark Zuckerberg’s Instagram, and whatever TikTok will become. It is happening, and it is necessary. A different way is possible, if we build it."

Anyways. #Fediverse.
Very serious offer.
I will trade you all 137 years of my musical experiences, history AND insight as an educated Black Woman with too much historical knowledge of how America was before the nazis took over, and all the fun that comes with it if you just help me get out of Gilead.

Heavy lifting already done. Valid passport for 7 years. Familiar with visas. Willing and able to pull student visas. Need remote employment. If you have any leads or info. Please help. 🙃

Hi to those who use #GhostOrg for your website! Does anyone know of any themes that just make a bunch of #Fediverse (not just #Mastodon) social icons available for the menu, out of the box? #AskMastodon #AskFedi #Ghost

I'm still working on getting local activists to use federated, self-hosted, not-Big-Tech web applications for organizing. It's simply not on most people's radars.

Does anyone have suggestions for how to encourage use of alternatives in our communities?

...huh. I had not heard of #postmarks before, but I _had_ been looking for a #Fediverse alternative to Linktree. Maybe this will do.

I ain't gonna lie when I first joined Mastodon i thought just another app i won't use. But I really like it. So different to all da other socials y'all get different views and y'all can actually talk to folks.
I love it . It's my go to social now.
Shout out the #fediverse

I love you all

Well, it looks like #Bookwyrm works with #bridgyfed just fine!

Does anyone have any experiences with successfully connecting #Fediverse apps with Brid.gy _other_ than #Mastodon and Bookwyrm? I tried but failed to connect my #Pixelfed account earlier, so I am curious about any other possibilities.

I am all for using this possibility, if only to show the fine folks at #Bluesky that we have a rich ecosystem of different apps over here. 😉

So I broke down & joined #bluesky, because that’s where the majority of journos seem to be posting. I don’t get it. You’d think they’d be more interested in the #fediverse. Anyway, if any of my followers did the same I’m @nonilex.bsky.social, though I’m pretty sure whatever I post there I’ll already have posted here.

As we welcome new people to the #fediverse we need to help teach them (and ourselves) that this is a public forum (mostly) and that private conversations are better protected by tools such as #Signal. I'd say this is especially true for people fleeing #Facebook who are used to the illusion of privacy based on the audience controls on that platform.

The infrastructure of New Social ensures that it will never be controlled by dictators.
