Some incredible conversations in the @subclub session at #FediForum. The excitement is so energizing!

Thank you to everyone that took part, made my week 🙏🏼

At #FediForum today and will be liveblogging with @hello here: https://wedistribute.org/2024/09/fediforum-september-2024/

So excited to see all the new things being built in the #Fediverse!

I'm not domain hoarding, they're all ✨ concepts of a plan ✨

Me listening to you explain why you still use X

@tchambers As someone who's been lucky enough to work with him - @mike is truly passionate about @Flipboard's mission to federate the right way. Very excited about all the work they're getting done there.

"If you’re going to build something, build it in a way that’s standard and portable across multiple services."

@bart and I chatted with @jaypeters of @theverge about @subclub 🙏🏼

I also talk about how protocol-based networks can drive "one last network effect" and start a flywheel of innovation in social media.

Let's bring the social web back to the users 🌐

Your favorite social network could make decisions that make it impossible to use the service where you live. If that happens, you lose not only access to the site but, more importantly, the community you worked so hard to build.

Use platforms that implement open social web protocols like #ActivityPub so you can lift your network to another platform without missing a beat.

Your network shouldn't be trapped with the whims of a corporation. There's a better way.

@dansup 👋🏼 @subclub @bart

@BeAware Love it! I'm sure you'll gather some subscribers over time 🙏🏼

Some personal news: For the last couple of months, I've been an advisor to @subclub - a new Fediverse platform for paid subscriptions! The team is next-level talented and share my vision for bringing everyone to the open social web.

I'm so excited to be part of this mission to help fund instance owners and also usher in creators from closed platforms to ones where they own their audience and their content, while sharing across numerous platforms.

And this is just the start 👀 (1/3)

I'm also honored to be one of the first people to have a @subclub 🤩! Check out @quillmatiq@sub.club to become a premium subscriber! I'll be sharing projects I'm working on, giving you early access to them, and more.

Absolutely no pressure to subscribe, but your support would be greatly appreciated 🫶🏼 (3/3)

Three neat features of @subclub:

1. You can post to your premium subscribers by DMing your @subclub from your existing Fediverse account 🤌🏼

2. There's already an API, so devs can integrate with the platform on day one 🔌

3. Ice Cubes and Mammoth are the first clients to have a "Subscribe" button for sub.club, and it'll show up on other apps soon 💲

The long-term goal is a standardized "Subscribe" button for *every* premium subscription platform on the Fediverse, not just @subclub 🌐🚀 (2/3)

When someone asks if it's still worth being active on X / Twitter:

For the last few issues of 'Human-Generated Content,' I explored the impact of AI on the human web, so there wasn't enough space to discuss the #Fediverse.

But we are *so* back.

Today, I explore how social media companies are educating the public about the open social web:
- @ThomasFoster & @saskia of @newsmast
- @docpop w/ Wordpress
- @bart of @mammoth
- @mike of @Flipboard
- @triketora of Block Party
- @ghost (@johnonolan)

That, and more, here: https://www.augment.ink/human-generated-content-6

"This interoperability is the future of social media and we’re excited to see how it reshapes our world." - @mike

Couldn't agree more 🌐🚀

@BeAware And with their latest update, you can follow Fediverse users *without* needing to federate - you only need to federate if you want to engage. It's a really cool way to let people dip their toes into this world without needing to fully commit on day one.

@BeAware Not to mention they're doing with an *existing* service, not one from scratch. Kudos to @Flipboard on all of this 👏🏼

I wrote about @Flipboard's next major step in becoming a part of the #Fediverse - letting users follow anyone on Mastodon, PixelFed, or any other federated service (including federated Threads accounts!) *without* needing to federate!

I think this is a really smart way of letting folks dip their toes in the open social web without needing to commit to it 👏🏼

Flipboard is so close 🤏🏼 to fully federating, and I'm so excited!

Apple has decided that it also wants to extort independent creators now.

Very cool to see @ChrisPirillo and @evan sit down to chat about the #Fediverse on @TheNewStack 👀
