Hello fediverse!
I need your help to feature all of the amazing services that are part of the #ActivityPub realm.
What are some of your favorite ActivityPub handles to follow on #Funkwhale, #Peertube, #Pixelfed, #Bookwyrm, #Wordpress, #Truefans, #Castopod, #Akkoma, #Friendica, #Lemmy and others?
Your replies will be categorized by @jejord, @AileenLalor, @miaq and @marci so that we can feature these accounts to our Flipboard users and work to ensure they render properly on Flipboard.
I'm excited to help evangelize the many great projects here and advocate for their adoption and funding.

Lemmy is somewhat different, in that you follow topics and people who post "comments" to those topics show up as boosts. I follow:

in reply to Mike McCue • • •On Mastodon we get to follow hashtags, an idea that has been kicked around is the ability to federate posts to all instances that have people following any of the hashtags included in the post.
So, basically, treat a hashtag as an actor so a post with #startrek on instance A will federate to instance B if someone there follows #startrek
That would be a huge game changer.

in reply to Mike McCue • • •You should check out the @mastercrasher PeerTube channel created by @harrybo. He’s got some great Rally Showcase videos where he talks about his favourite rally cars and then test drives them in the EA WRC game.
Here’s one of the videos. It’s VERY good.

in reply to Mike McCue • • •Checking subject-specific server directories (like med-mastodon.com, social.coop, fediscience.org, newsie.social, among so many others) would be a good idea too.

in reply to Blort™ 🐀Ⓥ🥋☣️ • • •I'd love to see an official *Desktop* Peertube app, with video viewing, commenting and uploading functionality, but also with a single configuration click that let people automatically seed Peertube videos from their desktop.
It could be taken one step further afterwards, by letting instances upload directly to the shared community storage rather than needing their own. You'd see an explosion of content, which would bring more viewers.

in reply to Blort™ 🐀Ⓥ🥋☣️ • • •You may need to provide a benefit to bandwidth providers if the network started getting saturated though. Non financial/vanity, so it didn't encourage fraud, but maybe something like badges when commenting, based on what percentile they were in for providing community bandwidth.
Down the line it would also be great to see Podcasting 2.0 style streaming sats for viewed minutes, but that's probably better off offloaded to a Peertube plugin.

in reply to Mike McCue • • •It's a set of extensions for RSS. Some of them add features like transcripts, subtitles, livestreaming, episode comments and my personal fave, the ability for listeners/viewers to stream Sats (ie millionths of a Bitcoin) to content creators based on how long a listener/viewer listens/watches.
It's reinvigorated some podcasting substantially, and there's potential to do the same for visual media like Peertube too. I'm curious if it could be extended to a more eco friendly alt coin.

Of course I like, that we can federate also our own channels:
@bonndigital@bonn.video (our Peertube channel)
@JottEmm (Blog of @Johannes)
@bonnjetzt, our local calendar and @bonndigital@bundescast.de
But we have plenty more channels connected with the Fediverse!
