Hi everyone,

@aseelfromgz, @casey, and I had the honour of meeting three friends* from Gaza via video chat and we’d like to welcome them and their families to Gaza Verified:

• Soboh Ibrahim (@Sobohs)
• Ruaa (@ruaa)
• Mohamed Al qadi (@gazalive123)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and the fediverse, follow their accounts, and, if you can, please help them with their fundraisers and please share this so others might also.

💕

* Our fourth chat, with, @sarada9669 sadly couldn’t go ahead for technical reasons but we’re working on rescheduling it for tomorrow and fitting it in at the end of our regularly-scheduled calls.

Instagram, TikTok, Whatsapp.

Someone had to do it.

Warum #Bluesky vor seiner ultimativen Zerreissprobe steht und aus Angst vor Regulierung komplett eingeknickt ist... also vor der MAGA-Blase.

Das "etwas andere" Netzwerk ist vor allen Dingen eines: eine durch VCs gepushte US-Plattform, auf die ich zu lange reingefallen bin.

Mein oeffentlicher Abschiedsbrief in Richtung der dortigen Community und mein Hallo in Richtung #Mastodon und #Fediverse

Gerne teilen. Danke 🙏

Is it just me or is #mostr down rn? Haven't seen any #nostr posts in my #Fediverse feeds in a minute...

Hallo #fediverse ,

mit sofortiger Wirkung trennen wir uns von unserem langjährigen Lieferanten

#conrad Electronics ,
https://conrad.de

weil das Unternehmen Mitglied in folgenden Lobbyvereinen ist:

#familienunternehmer
https://www.familienunternehmer.eu/

UND

#familienunternehmen
https://www.familienunternehmen.de/

Wir sind der Ansicht, dass die Ziele der beiden Vereine/Institutionen
unseren Zielen entgegenstehen.

Dazu gehört: u.a.
#co2reduktion
#Gleichbehandlung
#Steuergerechtigkeit

Hey everyone,

While @joynewacc’s Internet connection is offline during her move, I was lucky enough to have @aseelfromgz with me today as we carried out today’s verification video calls for Gaza Verified and we’re happy to welcome four new accounts/families to Gaza Verified.

They are:

• Mohamed Hesham – @mohamedhesham
• Naeema family – @naeemafamily
• Hema Alshaer – @hemaalshaer
• Seraj Alnajjar – @serajnjar20

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and the fediverse, follow their accounts, and, if you can, please help them with their fundraisers and please share this so others might also.

Also, please remember that Aseel is in Gaza too and is helping others despite facing the very same challenges herself. You can help her and her family via her:

• PayPal (easier for them to get the funds): https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=7DTFU9TQV44EY
• GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-aseel-and-family-leave-gaza-before-its-too-late/

Today AWS went down and the fediverse was full of jokes and memes. But when the problem is with Hetzner, Netcup, or OVH, large chunks of the fediverse will also go dark.

#AWS #fediverse #AmazonWebServices

One of my favourite features of the #fediverse is seeing people *learning things*. There are so many folks here discovering dying arts and trades. People learning how the things we take for granted work, and endeavouring to implement them themselves!

People getting their #HAMradio licenses, #selfhosting, making clothing, blacksmithing, gardening, repairing their own things, backporting modern software to run on windows 3.11...

Y'all are my people. Never stop learning, and never stop sharing what you've learned.

Today's AWS debacle is the perfect example of the reason why in the last few years I started to be less enthusiastic about Signal, and more oriented to federated or even P2P solutions like XMPP and Jami. I wrote about it already:

https://gagliardoni.net/#im_battle_2025

Signal was down for few hours today, after an aoutage that affected AWS:

https://mastodon.world/@Mer__edith/115405436746725236

Let's ignore for a second the blind reliance on AWS or any other cloud provider. In a decentralized system, this would not have happened, or at least it would have not impacted so many users.

Yes, I am a cryptographer myself, I know that Signal's encryption is the best. But encryption is not everything. Availability issues, geopolitical troubles, risk of enshittification, limitations on users' freedom to use and control the software lead to a lack of trust, even in a supersecure solution. And I say that with honest admiration for the folks at Signal, who are doing a great job.

May they prove me wrong over and over again.

Hey everyone,

I’d like to welcome four more Palestinian friends (and their families) from Gaza to Gaza Verified.

I had the honour of speaking with them during the last hour. Joy’s Internet connection is sadly offline as she’s moving house and so it was just me in the meetings. Thankfully, everyone spoke far better English than I do Arabic and we were able to manage. It never gets easy being shown the scenes of devastation in Gaza. You see it in the news but it hits differently through someone’s mobile phone.

In any case, please give a warm welcome to our newest Gaza Verified members and their families:

• Maisa (@maisakr) – I was lucky enough to also meet Lana, one of her three children :)
• Mohamed Dawed (@Mohamed_Dawed)
• Mohammed Hamada (@mohammedhamada)
• Rawan (@Rawan_kh22)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and the fediverse, follow their accounts, and, if you can, please help them with their fundraisers and please share this so others might also.

💕

Got it. Here’s that sentence rewritten with your clarification, keeping the tone natural and consistent with the rest of the post:

We agreed that while DIY incorporation might save money, it would be too labour intensive and could create problems down the road if we don’t take full advantage of the expert advice available.

Today we held our first Steering Committee meeting, and it gave us something we’ve been working toward for weeks—a clear sense of direction, shared purpose, and a name that truly fits what we’re building.

We’re officially becoming the Federated Video Co-op Initiative (formerly the PeerTube Co-op Initiative). The old name reflected where we started. The new name reflects where we’re going. We’re not tied to one platform—we’re building a co-operative framework for federated video as a whole.

The meeting helped define our path. Creators and viewers will be at the heart of the co-op. We discussed sustainable funding ideas like a Patreon-style model for creators, and explored development options—from partnering with CoSocial as a fiscal host to collectively funding GIA Co-op’s support. We agreed that while DIY incorporation might save money, it would be too labour intensive and could create problems down the road if we don’t take full advantage of the expert advice available.

This co-op will be rooted in Canada, but open to the world. We’re building something grounded, collaborative, and built to last.

Our Steering Committee is now drafting the Founding Framework, a Living Document that defines who we are and what we stand for. Once it’s ready, we’ll invite everyone to read it, comment, and help shape it together. The target date is Friday, October 24.

After CoSocial’s AGM later this month, we’ll meet again to review the framework, vote, and start shaping our bylaws.

Thank you to everyone who’s been following and supporting this effort from the beginning. The federated video future we’ve been talking about is taking shape—and we’re building it together.

Want to get involved?

DM me your email address if you’d like to be part of the co-op or receive updates about the Federated Video Co-op Initiative.

@pfefferle My suggestion is to show a quote post as a highlighted #WordPress comment, along with the quoted section. Some blogs like the @verge highlight comments, although I think those are reserved for admins & users.

Another alternative is to have quoted post highlighted in the comments or a #Fediverse icon put next to the profile picture in the comments (maybe a small square toward the right side or have the #ActivityPub symbol appear next to the profile picture in the comments).
