Well, my post on Threads about Fediverse has almost 10k views now!

Not much interactions but it's a start.

Hopefully they don't go following that fake "Fediverse" account that doesn't even know how federation works.😬

@JonChevreau I don't know much about #bluesky other than it's corporate-backed. Being a corporation, I fully expect #enshittification in a few years. Never bothered with #Threads as I am separating myself from #meta. #Mastodon genuinely seems the healthiest out of the bunch.

If you are staying on a corporate
social media platform because the people you follow are still there, consider others are also staying there because you are still there.

Someone needs to start the move.
Be that person.

Leave X for good.
Leave Facebook forever.
Remember blue skies eventually turn grey.

Embrace the social media that cannot get sold to a billionaire. Embrace the Fediverse 💚

What do all of these have in common?

The Fediverse
Bluesky
Threads
Flipbook
Wordpress
and soon, Tumblr

The reach is growing! 😎👍🏼

The rumors of the site formally known as #Twitter dying might be an exaggeration.

More brands are also returning, & I think it’s because (for better or worse), the center of the political social, tech, finance & sports is on #ElonMusk’s site.

The best alternatives are #Threads & #Flipboard, but neither are tolerant of the vitriol that populates X.

Started seeing more and more Threads posts coming through federated timeline. Searched #Google and found out Threads is a fediverse like #Mastodon? Learned one thing today. I guess I was wrong all this time I thought #Bluesky and #Threads were not a part of #fediverse

I just followed an account from threads.net, but I don't see any posts for that user in the app (Moshidon/Android) but I see lots in the browser. I tried going to a single post in the browser, copying the url, and pasting in into the search in the app. I get...

Could not find anything for these search terms.

Any ideas why that is? Will posts between the instances eventually federate now that we are connected? Thank you!

#mastodon #threads

In the Fediverse, beyond Mastodon and similar platforms, you can also follow users from:

- Bluesky (search users with: bsky.brid.gy)
- Threads (search users with: threads.net)
- X (search users with: bird.makeup)
- Nostr (search users with mostr.pub)

However, these connections are often one-way, and not all users are discoverable due to various limitations.

Many people avoid any contact with these platforms for ideological reasons, and personally, I dislike bird.makeup because it merely provides X feeds. Some Fediverse instances have outright banned all of these services.

Over the years, my faith in interoperability with services not originally built for ActivityPub has diminished - Meta has shown no real progress, and the Bluesky bridge, with its persistent issues, is unlikely to ever work seamlessly.

I believe in the Fediverse and ActivityPub. They are more than sufficient without external integrations.

@Flipboard and Surf.Social are excited to host the first-ever Fediverse House, March 9 & 10, 2025.

Join us while the SXSW conference is going on to learn about the world of decentralized social and why it promises a better way for consumers, creators, brands, and even democracy itself.

Our programming lineup is stacked (and still evolving), but it’s looking like the place to be for anyone interested in the future of the internet.

Planning to leave #X but not sure where to go? #Blusky #Threads and #Mastodon are all options, but what if you could pick any one of these platforms and reach people on all the others? Now you can! Just follow the instructions on this site I made!

This is possible thanks to Threads & Mastodon being part of the fediverse, an interconnected network of social media sites, & by bridgy fed, a tool that connects Blusky to the #fediverse! ( Just in time for #FOSDEM)

“We now have a U.S. administration that is proud of our leading companies, prioritizes American technology winning and that will defend our values and interests abroad,” Zuckerberg said Wednesday. “I am optimistic about the progress and innovation that this can unlock, so this is going to be a big year.”

"This spring, a woman named Jessica Burgess and her daughter will stand trial in Nebraska after being accused of performing an illegal abortion — with a key piece of evidence provided by Meta, the parent company of Facebook."

#Bluesky gehört doch auch zum #Fediverse. Ist damit eine Kommunikation zwischen Bluesky und #Mastodon möglich? Oder was ist mit #Threads ? https://www.heise.de/news/Das-Fediverse-waechst-Nach-Threads-auch-Bluesky-mit-Mastodon-verknuepfbar-9745340.html

Great to see @distrowatch make the leap to the #Fediverse.

Always remember that when you use #Facebook, #Instagram, #Threads or #WhatsApp, you are always at the mercy of #Meta.

You may have built an audience there but they own it.

"I've tried to appeal the ban and was told the next day that Linux-related material is staying on the cybersecurity filter. My Facebook account was also locked for my efforts."

stay classy, meta
