“However, I think that possibly going forward, we might rework the onboarding user experience into **presenting a default option as well as an advanced option, where all that stuff with choosing a server would basically be hidden away from the people who get intimidated by choice**.”
“Among the unexpected sources of support for the magazine was the #fediverse—the collection of decentralized Mastodon servers that soared in popularity following Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter. Many comments on the GoFundMe page mention that the donors learned about the Observer through #Mastodon—where the Texas Observer was one of the first journalistic outlets to set up its own server, @jamescanup said.”
The HUGE influx of #mainstreaming people are going to be bringing a lot of what for us #openweb natives is easy to see as prat'ish behaver to the #Fediverse. Let's keep this polite and try hand holding before biting 😀
If you want people's advice about any topic, type your question and tag it with #AskFedi, which is kind of like a bat signal for advice on the Fediverse 🦇
If you want a post to be shared, try adding "Boosts appreciated!". Some servers may even have an emoji for this such as
By the way, remember that if you want your post shared publicly you have to give it a Public or Unlisted visibility setting. (More info about post visibility settings here: fedi.tips/who-can-see-my-posts…)
#fediforum We need to think about damage and good netiquette, all #Fediverse codebases are open-source.
People using and bring in codebases that are #closedsource are not "native" to the #fedivers. There will be STRONG social backlash about people who bring in closed source into the #openweb path.
NOTE am not pushing this problem, It's what is here in the space, have a blog on this subject hamishcampbell.com
The Fediverse is probably the most critical infrastructure to save democracy. ActivityPub is the world’s leading federated social web standard. A large community had given their last shirts to make it happen. It feels like a locomotive which is pulled by sewing thread. Co-organised some Confs redaktor.me/#home The next Community meeting is Mar 29 virtually.
#SocialHub is a community-driven space that seeks to promote #activertypub, working with new models of governance and organization that empower communities. It is part of the larger #fediverse, which is a network of decentralized social media platforms that do not conform to traditional hierarchies and power structures.

that's true, mastodon is feudalism and has its own robes and crown. The #Fediverse needs to pull it into the more democratic fold, this is done by doing better on our part, the king of mastodon is very unlike to move without a bit of carrot and stick on the rest of the codebase. This is exactly the problem we are solving with #OMN projects, have been dealing with this mess for a long time 😀
Well I would say we need a unified communication network base on #4opens, and surprisingly we already have this, the #fediverse so #nothingnew comes to mind agen, I only half joke.
Yes, the #dotcons mad a mess over the last 20 years, and nobody who was in their right minds would not push the word together and add the hash ;)
The current lack of grounded thinking about BLOCKING and control is such an ant-social process, when we start to think about groups and trust this can take us back to the more “native” #openweb path.
This survey is part of a #research project led by @__nate__ and me and it is aimed at understanding the reasons that motivated people to using Mastodon, their expectations in doing so and their current experience using it.
The developer of #owncast (@gabek) is starting a project to document how all software in the #fediverse actually federates with each other. Check it out at fedidocs.org/about/
This should make it easier to understand how every software project actually interoperates!
Watching @tchambers (and team) doing some super interesting and informative work on the growth of the #Fediverse and #Mastodon - this looks extremely interesting, and looks to become a quarterly update 👀 (also, if you're interested in this space, follow him!) indieweb.social/@tchambers/109…
This is our first quarterly update analyzing which platforms are growing - esp #mastodon & #postnews. Includes new data on users posting, app downloads & more.
Working on a draft #4opens review of the proposed video conf app, it's not "native". Of course not policing what people use rather outlining good/traditional practice unite.openworlds.info/Open-Med… My thinking you would be better off using #BBB as this is a gold #4opens app and a good tradition of organizing events for the #Fediverse using this tools so win/win 😀
#4opens review of https://qiqochat.com
The #4opens (Open Source, Open Data, Open process, Open “industrial” standards ) are a key part of this approach, providing a framework for building transparent, accountable, and inclusive systems that are ac…
Rozenshtein proposes a solution (of sorts) to the Moderator's Trilemma: federation. De-siloing social media, breaking it out of centralized walled gardens and recomposing it as a bunch of small servers run by a diversity of operators with a diversity of #ContentModeration approaches. The #Fediverse, in other words.
The #OGB project, stands for Open Governance Body. It is an initiative to create a governance body for the #fediverse, a network of decentralized social platforms that use the ActivityPub protocol.
In the #Fediverse we have a good history of using #BBBbigbluebutton.org/ as it is native, not alien to WHY and HOW we do things. Can understand coming in from the #fahernista and #NGO agenda is a learning curve, good to try to be native to the space you would like to be a part of. Welcome.

Anfragen an das Bundessozialgericht über Mastodon werden nicht beantwortet.
I’m lucky in my work to see firsthand the impact of what we do on systems and the people that run them.
We’re supporting @Mastodon through #FastForward because @Gargron, @renchap, and the entire #Mastodon team are doing important work and we want to help them scale it with integrity.
Well and it’s pretty neat to have a front-row seat (walk-on part?) to the revolution 😎 #TheFutureIsFederated
Twitter is in turmoil and the scholarly community on the platform is once again starting to migrate. As with the early internet, scholarly organizations are at the forefront of developing and implementing a decentralized alternative to Twitter, Masto…
#DecentSocial my prospective. decentsocial.net/ this #openweb event, the feeling that 90% of the talking was about things that had been talked about way too much before and obviously did not matter for what needs to be #fediverse focus/done now. So strong noise to signal at this event.
This is kinda normal, obviously need good faith to mediate.
Outlining this #openweb #fediverse native #OGB project people have been working on for the last few years.
It's reached programming stage, we have one dev and two experienced mentors, looking for a few committed #openweb coders of any skill level to build this not for profit project.
#DecentSocial happy to run a session about this project visionon.tv/w/jqTdss1qrdk4yEZi… The is a lot of renewed interest recently after the aborted tech dev and rollout due to covid last year. This is a historically working grassroots "news" project that is native to the #fediverse and #openweb
We are a wide affinity group working to reboot the global indymedia network using modern federated protocols such as #activitypub. This reboot will be based on the OMN project code. What is the OMN (Open Media Network): The project is to shift p...
Nice to see replies, we really need to celebrate that a group of grassroots #4opens activist got the #EU to use #fediverse #openweb apps. This shows where the value comes from, good to link to this thanks
The @EU_Commission has 71k followers on #mastodon. They have 1.7 million followers on Twitter.
The same post got: 363 boosts on Mastodon 110 retweets on Twitter
So the same message got 3 times as many engagements on the #openweb

So the exact same message got 3 times as many engagement on mastodon, in absolute numbers. And that happened with only 4% of the follower count on Twitter!
Ya'll reaaaally love trains over here 🚆
Thanks for being here EC, and please give us more trains!

#DecentSocialTopics If you are not focusing on worked though projects, then happy to talk about #openweb governance, media, news, archiving, EU outreach and #4opens approaches to the #fediverse and wider #openweb world.
Outlining this #openweb #fediverse native #OGB project people have been working on for the last few years.
It's reached programming stage, we have one dev and two experienced mentors, looking for a few committed #openweb coders of any skill level to build this not for profit project.
