Vale no mínimo a reflexão :blobBone_think:

Opiniões??

”Os "jornalistas de tecnologia" podem calar a boca sobre coisas que eles têm um medo irracional de entender como eles funcionam e como #Mastodon é o melhor: reimu_sigh:

O fato de que eu posso citar postar você agora e você não pode fazer nada sobre isso (ao contrário de #Bluesky, onde você pode separar sua postagem de uma citação que você não gosta) já deve dizer a muitos usuários quais #SNS se preocupa em dar aos usuários controle sobre como seus blogs (micro) parecem. O que é algo que o feediverso movido a ActivityPub tem uma e outra vez decepciona esses usuários.
Toda a preocupação com o apoio corporativo do Bluesky (que é uma preocupação válida, mas não é a gravidade "com fim mundial" que as pessoas querem que você pense) é irrelevante pelo PDS (estou em um PDS não-Bluesky desde o primeiro dia de experimentá-lo) e a dissociação de dados do usuário do "app". Claro que não há incentivo agora para criar uma versão "totalmente não comercial" do Bluesky que indexa todas as postagens do Bluesky. Mas uma vez que há e Bluesky se volta contra seus usuários (o que eu acho que é uma possibilidade no futuro), então nenhum dano é feito porque os usuários podem migrar tudo para longe da infraestrutura de Bluesky e fingir que nada aconteceu. Esta não é (ainda) uma possibilidade no #ActivityPub, onde os administradores que fecham suas instâncias pelas razões mais ridículas acontecem de tempos em tempos e causam interrupções muito significativas tanto para os usuários quanto para a rede.

Essencialmente, é [Mastodon] uma comunidade onde os usuários têm o poder

Como eu sugeri antes, não necessariamente. Os administradores detêm o poder. Os usuários também podem "ter o poder" fazendo sua própria instância, mas isso nem sempre é realista (você tem que se preocupar com moderação, mantendo-a atualizada, certifique-se de que está em alta 24 horas por dia, 7 dias por semana, etc., mas a moderação é mais importante). Compare isso com um PDS onde não existe tal coisa como se preocupar em moderar usuários remotos ou colocar medidas anti-spam uma vez configurado. Isso significa que, como usuário do Mastodon, você pode interagir em plataformas [ActivityPub] sem problemas.

Isso é possível em Bluesky e outros aplicativos #ATProto, e não é mais teórico com a chegada de #WhiteWind e #PinkSea que se interpõe significativamente (o equivalente técnico de "federação") com Bluesky. Embora eu geralmente evite a política neste blog, é difícil ignorar os preconceitos políticos que permeiam X e BlueSky. X se desviou fortemente para ideologias de extrema-direita, enquanto o BlueSky é frequentemente associado a comunidades de extrema-esquerda. Essa paisagem polarizada não funciona para aqueles de nós que buscam um espaço neutro para interações significativas.

Uma olhada nas hashtags "Fediblock" e "Fediantisemitism" revelará que tais espaços extremos existem aqui no FEDI também. A estrutura do Mastodon, sem um algoritmo para enviar conteúdo específico, dá aos usuários liberdade para criar um feed que reflita genuinamente seus interesses.

Você pode optar por não ter um algoritmo curando seu feed no Twitter e no Bluesky, e essa insistência de que "todos os algoritmos ruins" também aliena aqueles que acham útil um algoritmo de curadoria.

Can "tech journalists" shut the fuck up about things they have an irrational fear of understanding how they work and how #Mastodon is the best :reimu_sigh:

The fact that I can quote post you right now and you can't do anything about it (unlike in #Bluesky where you can detach your post from a quote you don't like) should already tell a lot of users which #SNS cares about giving users control over how their (micro)blogs look. Which is something the ActivityPub-powered fediverse has time and time again disappoints such users.

All the worry about corporate backing of Bluesky (which is a valid concern, but it is not the "world-ending" severity people want you to think) is made irrelevant by the PDS (I am in a non-Bluesky PDS since day one of trying it) and the decoupling of user data from the "app". Sure there is no incentive right now to create a "fully non-commercial" version of Bluesky which indexes all Bluesky posts. But once there is and Bluesky does turn against its users (which I do think is a possibility in the future), then no harm is done because users can migrate everything away from Bluesky's infrastructure and pretend like nothing happened. This is not (yet) a possibility in #ActivityPub where admins closing down their instances for the most ridiculous reasons happen from time-to-time and cause very significant disruptions for both users and the network.Essentially, it's [Mastodon] a community where the users have the powerAs I've hinted earlier, not necessarily. Admins hold the power. Users can "have the power" too by making their own instance, but this is not always realistic (you have to worry about moderation, keeping it up-to-date, make sure it is up 24/7, etc, but moderation is more important). Compare that to a PDS where there's no such thing as worrying about moderating remote users or putting up anti-spam measures once setup.This means that as a Mastodon user, you can interact across [ActivityPub] platforms seamlesslyThis is possible in Bluesky and other #ATProto apps, and it's no longer theoretical with the arrival of #WhiteWind and #PinkSea which interops meaningfully (the technical equivalent of "federation") with Bluesky.While I generally avoid politics on this blog, it’s hard to ignore the political biases permeating X and BlueSky. X has veered heavily toward far-right ideologies, while BlueSky is often associated with far-left communities. This polarized landscape doesn’t work for those of us seeking a neutral space for meaningful interactions.One look at the "fediblock" and "fediantisemitism" hashtags will reveal that such extreme spaces exist here in fedi too.Mastodon's structure, lacking an algorithm to push specific content, gives users freedom to create a feed that genuinely reflects their interests.You can choose not to have an algorithm curating your feed in both Twitter and Bluesky, and this insistence that "all algorithms bad" also alienates those who do find a curating algorithm useful

I really can't find how it all started that Filipino Twitter users are migrating to The ATmosphere network. While Facebook users are in Threads (and only few actually activates their fediverse settings despite telling them how).

It's something I'm very curious about because the Philippine SNS / social media space is heavily Facebook + Twitter only for the last 20 years. Yet, somehow, in the latter half of 2024, things started to change.

What is going on?! I want to understand what triggered my kababayan to migrate, or at least, take seriously a "new" platform. And this is despite the fact that most of the people they're following are more likely than not still active in those closed-silo platforms.

The migration isn't huge, like Brazil-huge. But still, it's significant. These are not the usual "let's give it a try" crowd and then they'll disappear. They're actually using Bluesky and Threads!

The challenge is, like in Threads where we have to tell them to turn-on their fediverse setting, we have to tell ATmosphere users to follow @ap.brid.gy . 😅

One thing that The #ATmosphere network have that is not in any #SNS (yet): badges / labels.

This is the relationship of the various terminologies ( #SocialWeb #OpenSocialWeb #Fediverse #ATmosphere #NOSTRich ) with each other.

#MycelialWeb #DDFON #TheATmosphere #TheFederation #SNS #SocialMedia

Seriously, stop blaming the network/platform/software/protocol if you are not seeing the content you want to see, or seeing content you don't want to see.

Every #SNS, or #SocialMedia network, is based on (1) who you follow; and (2) who you and the people you follow interact with.

In other words, what you see and don't see was based on your how you're growing your own network. That is your personal "observable network".

It gets worse in platforms with algorithms because they push far more similar content you wouldn't normally see if you don't have any connection path to those (again, who the people you're following are interacting with).

In platforms without an algorithm, like most #Fediverse software, the closest you can get to something similar is your "Instance timeline/feed" and "Fediverse timeline/feed", which are generally 'hidden' behind another tab/section. Not like in, for example, #Threads, "For You" is the default. ("For You" is currently like the "Instance timeline/feed" but with algorithms.)

If you're seeing too much tech mumbo jumbo, you're probably following a couple of tech accounts. Or, maybe, you're just following one techie account but they're far too active in this type of content.

You want to see more art content, you have to find and follow them. Use hashtags and see who else are using it and follow those accounts you like. Or, if you like things being fed to you through an algorithm, you have to keep feeding that algorithm with keywords so it will learn what you want (again, like in Threads).

What you see and don't see is based on how you're growing your network. It's no different from your offline life, you see and hear only the things people that surrounds you are sharing.

It is not the fault of the software/platform/protocol/instance/algorithm (or lack thereof). It's all about #YOU, you are center of your "observable network". Just like how planet Earth is the center of its own "observable universe".

The #SNS the made #SocialMedia fun, #Plurk, is hiring.

I hope this is for implementing #ActivityPub and joining the #Fediverse network.

A bit of history for those not familiar with it, Plurk launched on 2008-05-12; six days before Evan sent the first post in the Fediverse (2008-05-18). Yes, Plurk and the Fediverse network are 16 years old already.

Plurk have these features:

1. Horizontal timeline. You scroll horizontally to see older posts.
2. Karma. The more active you are, the more points you'll get, it unlocks some cool stuff like new emojis; and of course bragging rights.
3. It tracks Profile views, and Friends invited.
4. Separated “Friends” (two-way / mutual) from “Fans” (one-way; you are not following them back).
5. Have various badges that a user earns over time. Because why not? Who doesn't love badges?! I love badges!
6. You can customized your profile. Check my account for example: https://www.plurk.com/Laibcoms That is not the default Plurk profile design.
7. You can give “Plurk Coins” to users (this was recent [by a few years]). You can use it for yourself or reward others for their excellent content.
8. You can post “anonymously” (private or public).
9. Visibility options are: the whole world; custom (list, individuals, friends only); only me.
10. Comment options are: the whole world; friends; myself.
11. Resharing/boosting can be turned-off.
12. An option to mark post as “Adults Only”.
13. And many more…

(Some of the above features are available in some Fediverse software; either in mainline or forks. [And in some cases, a fork removes a feature from mainline.])

I truly want Plurk to join the Fediverse network. They'll show the fediverse community that you can design things differently and add other “cool” features as well. We don't need to stick to the tired design of #Twitter , #Facebook , #Instagram . ^_~

The #SocialWeb is currently buzzing about the #Fediverse ( #ActivityPub ) & #ATmosphere ( #ATproto ). Don't forget about #diaspora and most importantly #IndieWeb .

A common misconception about mycelial networks like the #Fediverse ( #ActivityPub ) and #ATmosphere ( #ATproto ) is that what you see is the entire network.

Highly false!

Who you see is based on the connections you've made which is far from 1% of both these #SNS / #socialmedia networks.

The different #MyceliumNetwork of the #MycelialWeb are:

* The #Fediverse mycelium network — powered by #ActivityPub.
* The #ATmosphere mycelium network — #ATproto.
* The #NOSTRich mycelium network — #NOSTR.
* #Matrix is Matrix
* #XMPP is XMPP
