Was ich nicht so verstehen kann und will, das man in den grossen Medien, das #Fediverse links liegen lĂ€sst. Heute mittag auf DeutschlandFunk Kultur, sprach man ĂŒber Bluesky und Co. Und auch ĂŒber Alternativen zu X, aber von unserem #fediverse kein Ton ? WARUM ?

Ist es, weil es von "normalen" Menschen gefĂŒhrt wird und nicht von einer grossen Firma ?

Vielleicht sollte man doch ein wenig die Strategie in der Werbung Àndern ;D

"Open social media offers a chance to escape the cycle of good product turns bad product and wiping the slate clean to start again. Instead, open social media offers the chance to build in a space where you can easily hop-skip-jump to the next best platform without losing your community."

ah, no! It’s still my major network where I target much more users than here and have also the possibility to convince beginners and new users to #opensource solutions and especially #FreeBSD at a time where they’re mostly not even aware of the Fediverse. They should come to the #Fediverse by their own will - if not, they go to #Threads or #Bsky - with a bad fragmentation.


From all I’ve read over the last few days, the consensus seems to be:

- #Bluesky have got a lot of the UX right, but there are still a lot to do on the infrastructure side to create a truly decentralized social media.
- #Mastodon / #Fediverse have come further in terms of building the underlying, decentralized infra, but are lagging behind when it comes to UX.

From what I’ve learned over the years, neither UX or infra are easy to fix down the road. But infra somewhat harder than UX.

Aujourd'hui, ça fait donc 2 ans que je me suis installĂ©e sur le #fediverse ! 🎉

J'y ai rencontré des gens formidables, dont certains sont devenus des amis IRL.
MĂȘme si les rĂ©seaux sont avant tout un outil de travail pour moi, je viens ici avec joie pour discuter de tout et de rien.
Merci Ă  Piaille.fr de m'avoir accueillie et Ă  vous tous.tes pour nos discussions ❀

C'est reparti pour une nouvelle année !

Fedi feature request
I want to be able to block hashtags as easily as follow them. Click a tag. Under follow button is a mute button. Simple.

I don't want to take the time to set a filter for every forking sports hashtag but every time I see one I want to mute it!

#fediverse




Also—and I really don’t want to sound like a BlueskyBro here—is there any software that implements custom timelines in the Fediverse, such as the super cool ones Bluesky has?

It would be super cool if lists could be made not only of profiles, but also of hashtags and keywords, ideally even having custom algorithms, too!

@FediTips @mastodonmigration @fedilove @fediverse


I had dozens of accounts with notifications activated, and it was definitely becoming too much, so I am starting to use lists, finally!

I see that there are not many resources about this feature around the web, though


Any suggestions/tips/useful links?

Verkar som om tillvÀxten för Bluesky (20 miljoner konton nu) gör det svÄrt för bryggan (#Bridgy) mellan #Mastodon och Bluesky att hÀnga med. Lagg pÄ flera timmar just nu, men det löser sig sÀkert nÀr det börjar stabilisera sig lite. BÀst vore om #Bluesky integrerar funktionaliteten helt och federerar som en av alla servrar i #Fediverse, men det kanske Àr att hoppas pÄ för mycket?



How much does Meta, X, Google, etc make from an average, non-paying user each month?

I’m considering donating the same amount to the development of #fediverse in one way or another.


loops.video has 10K+ users đŸ„ł 🚀

@Aral Balkan Does it only work with local content on instances with the Mastodon API?

If so, that excludes any and all content from Fediverse instances without the Mastodon API, e.g. Hubzilla, (streams), Forte.

:blobcatreading: I see so many posts lamenting the fact that people are moving from Twitter to Bluesky instead of Mastodon, but I think that’s a fundamental misunderstanding of the Fediverse and what it stands for.

People who want ‘just another platform’ will not find what they’re looking for here because Mastodon is not one.

By comparing Mastodon to other platforms specifically competing for Twitter’s user-base, we are trying to make Mastodon something it’s not; a stage where people shout at the world.

That concept is so fundamentally opposed to the philosophy of Mastodon and the greater Fediverse that I struggle to even make the comparison.

Mastodon is a tool to form communities where genuine conversations are actually given a chance and where small corners of the internet can blossom into something truly wonderful.

I think that is something worth holding on to, even if it means some people decide to join Bluesky instead. :blobcatheart:

I just discovered the #degrowth hashtag through the previously shared post, and it resonates deeply with my views on social media and the reflections I shared a few days ago:
social.vivaldi.net/@everton137


It also aligns with my ongoing discomfort about the relentless focus on profit-driven thinking. This mindset ultimately led me to found @okbr, the Brazilian chapter of the nonprofit organization @okfn, which started 13 years ago.

That decision was shaped by my earlier experiences working for a company that exploited its employees with unpaid overtime, including countless holidays and weekends.

The shortcomings of traditional centralized social media platforms run by big tech companies have raised awareness among a growing number of people - but it’s still far from reaching the critical mass needed for real change.

Speaking of #MastoAdmin duties that I'm working on right now, I'm also setting up regular cleanup for my instance.

@Linkshaender @makeratschool @crossgolf_rebel @jakob Nur so am Rande, fĂŒr Neunutzer*innen kommt das #Fediverse nicht nur in Form toller Möglichkeiten daher, sondern stark auch in Form von herablassenden Belehrungen, und zwar oft exakt dann, wenn sich Leute fĂŒr das Ganze öffnen. Wer Neugierde auf das Fediverse und die Nutzung des Begriffs steigern will, dem empfehle ich den genannten „freundlichen Austausch“.


This is a powerful statement from UK journalists and we agree.

X is no longer neutral and no longer a home for journalists.

We are ready to support any and all journalists who make the move to open social networks, now and in the New Social future.

Please, feel free to send journalists or publications our way if they have any questions. Or, if you're a journalist yourself, feel free to reach out.

SelbstverstĂ€ndlich gibts zum GlĂŒck viele, die das #Fediverse begriffen haben. Aber leider zu viele sogenannte Spezialisten, die offenbar keine Ahnung haben und den selben Unsinn seit Jahren verbreiten. @christianschwaegerl @riffreporter @crossgolf_rebel @jakob


Mastodon ist keine Netzwerk. Mastodon ist eine Software, die den Microblogging-Dienst im Netzwerk #Fediverse anbietet. Neben Mastodon gibts viele weitere Programme - Pleroma, Akkoma, Friendica, Sharkey, Misskey, Hubzilla ua. Dann gibt es Dienste fĂŒr Bilder, fĂŒr Audio fĂŒr Video, fĂŒr Blogs.
Diese alle sind ein Teil des Netzwerks #Fediverse.
@riffreporter @crossgolf_rebel @jakob


Es gibt nur ein Netzwerk, das ist das #Fediverse. Die einzelnen Servern sind so Teil des Ganzen, sind aber keine eigene Netzwerke - alle sind Instanzen sind miteinander verbunden - siehe das Bild doch an, was ich vorhin gepostet habe. Das ist ĂŒbrigens in Wikipedia. Vielleicht wĂŒrde es helfen diesen Artikel dort man zu lesen.

#Mastodon got a lift in sign ups also.

"Month over month, signups were also up by 27% with 90,000 newly registered accounts in November."

This account is one in those 90,000.

A downside of fediverse (at the moment) is the wrongly displayed amount of likes/shares (boosts) of a post.

When you want to double check it, click the three dots underneath the post and select 'open in original page'.

It can result in a post showing for example '3 boosts' on your instance into '280 boosts' on the original page.

#fediverse #mastodon #fedimanual


Sorry, aber ich finde weder friendica, peertube oder sonstige Instanzen zum anmelden, deutschsprachige schon gar nicht. Habe das mehrfach versucht.
Mastodon war easy zu finden.
Außerdem habe ich eine Diaspora Instanz gefunden die eben selbiges ist - Leere.

Einen Server selbst zu betreiben, fehlt mir die Zeit, Muße und auch die Kompetenz dazu (soll ja auch sicher sein). Da bin ich sicher nicht alleine.

TIL that some Mastodon servers require authentication even to get a public post by API.

Oh well, more error checking code it is, then :)

#fediverse #mastodon #API #public



Coming soon
 Streamiverse.

A curated streaming fediverse post API compatible with the Mastodon API for use in teaching, demos, presenting, etc. Basically, if you were using the Mastodon public timeline API for these use cases before it started to require authentication, this will be a good alternative :)

If you have suggestions for the curated feed, reply to this with links to posts.
