As I've mentioned, I've been working with some people to launch Cosocial.ca, a Canadian #Fediverse instance which is a long-term self-supporting sustainable operation based on the member-owned co-operative model.
There's an online conversation today; invited so far are people who signed up as potential technical contributors, but if you might be interested, drop on by: lu.ma/u4jlxafp
This is an initial tech volunteer kick off for CoSocial. If you're interested in volunteering and/or eventually doing some paid work in supporting independent, co-op owned social media in Canada, please join this first kick off meeting.lu.ma
Co se stane, když si administrátor jedné Mastodon instance řekne, že už toho má tak akorát plné kecky?
Správně. Uživatelé se můžou poměrně jednoduše přesunout na jinou instanci. A vy možná ani nic nepoznáte.
A krásné na tom je, že lidé z okolí vám s tím rádi pomůžou

“The #fediverse is like #email.”
Yes.
Now read this and understand it:
“I have been self-hosting my email since I got my first broadband connection at home in 1999 … But my emails are just not delivered anymore. I might as well not have an email server.
Email is now an oligopoly, a service gatekept by a few big companies which does not follow the principles of net neutrality … I lost. We lost. One cannot reliably deploy independent email servers.“

Many companies have been trying to disrupt email by making it proprietary. So far, they have failed. Email keeps being an open protocol. Hurray? No hurray. Email is not distributed anymore. You just cannot create another first-class node of this necfenollosa.com

Hello #Fediverse! #Pinetta is a decentralized FOSS social pinboard in the style of Pinterest. After a month of planning, we've settled on a basic game plan and are opening up our @Codeberg repo for contributions from devs and designers!
We'll be working on a prototype that uses #Python and #Django to get the basic functionality working. We'll also be hosting weekly sharing sessions on #CommunityBuilding principles to develop our Code of Conduct and a larger framework for community wellness. 🥳
přejeme krásné prožití vánočních svátků a splněných přání.

With their track of incubating #RustLang I'm curious how this pans out.
In early 2023, Mozilla will stand up and test a publicly accessible instance in the Fediverse at Mozilla.Social.Steve Teixeira (The Mozilla Blog)
… Or, in what a previous head of public policy at Mozilla told me while we were chatting before our talks at a data protection conference:
“Aral, we’re just another Silicon Valley tech company, I don’t understand why you’re holding us to a such a higher standard.”
When I finally managed to pick my jaw off the floor the only retort I could manage was: “But that’s not what you tell people.”
3/3
That's fantastic news! Welcome to the Fediverse!
And thank you for making the conscious decision to use the word #Fediverse, instead of the brand of just one particular type of Fediverse server among myriad others.
I've assembled a short list of platforms available to choose from here:
write.as/tallship/making-bette…
Particular favorites for many are those of #Friendica, #Akkoma, #Soapbox, #Hometown and #Calkey.
Don't forget to checkout other Mastodon forks like Glitch-Soc too 🙂

Hello! We are a new instance for #artists and #creators, both amateur and professional. We serve the creative community and want to provide them a place to promote their work and build an audience on #Mastodon and the #Fediverse. Your fans can follow your accounts from other servers, but this is exclusively for artists and creators for now.
We're just starting out, but applications are open for artists and creators, come see us at artistalley.space/about

Weiß jemand was über den Verbleib von #FediverseSpace ?
Ich wollte kürzlich drauf verlinken, aber es zeigt nun 404: fediverse.space/
Das war die Seite, die solche interaktiven Grafiken zeigte:
"Es gibt keine offiziellen und vollständigen Statistiken. Man muss seine eigene Instanz schließlich nirgendwo registrieren. Aber da in „ #Fediverse ” ja das Word „Universe” enthalten ist: ziemlich groß. Tausende von Instanzen sind bekannt, die jeweils einen bis mehrere tausend registrierte Benutzer haben; die Zahl der Nutzer geht also zumindest in die Millionen. Wer sich das Universum gern veranschaulichen möchte, besucht beispielsweise Fediverse.space. Kennt man keine Namen, klickt man einfach die Sterne – und erhält dann Informationen zu der jeweiligen Instanz."

For anyone who doesn't know, @Framasoft support and fund a whole wide range of decentralized, #FOSS, #privacy respecting tools such as #Peertube ( @peertube ), #Mobilizon (think Facebook Groups for the #Fediverse, @mobilizon ) and more!
They do it all on super low funding, so go throw a few or your local currency at them to help grow the #fedi!

@Friendica Support @Friendica Developers
Let me start with a concrete, question: Are there any efforts / plans to support the upload of videos?
And now, since I might have your attention, allow me to broaden the question to:
What is your opinion regarding "what #Friendica is / should be"?
My view / vision is heading slightly in the direction that nowadays image and video content is quite central in social networks and thus a #Fediverse application like friendica should support the multimedia aspect a bit more, if it wants to be attractive for the broad public in terms of being an alternative to commercial social networks.
Most of you might tell: "Yeah, if one prefers media centric Fediverse, then check out #pixelfed ". But I think, pixelfed is yet too much of an Instagram clone, only providing the image / video focus (which bothered me at Instagram from the very beginning not being able to have good commenting / discussion options there).
In my view, Friendica has great potential becoming a great "one fits all" application for the majority of people who like social media and the concept of the Fediverse. It has way more cool functions than #mastodon / pixelfed (which are in my opinion too close copies of Instagram and Twitter, respectively) but much simpler and convenient than Hubzilla (which I think is really great, for a computer science person, but not for the broad non-technical focussed public)
Wrapping it up: I would love to see a Friendica development towards an easier multimedia support. What are your thoughts?
Cheers
Marek
Time for a recurring self-promotion (sorry): I run an invite-only community #PeerTube instance over at spectra.video
It's still a fledgling community, but it's geared towards creators who want to share their stuff with the wider #fediverse. We connect to a lot of great instances, have pretty strong community guidelines, and do our best to counter spam and harassment.
Creators are allotted an unlimited amount of upload space for videos!
If you're looking to join PeerTube and put your stuff out there, please DM me!
Spectra is a special new PeerTube instance dedicated to supporting original content creators, and building the video community within the fediverse!spectra.video

There's a new groups system for the Fediverse called chirp.social. More info at:
➡️ chirp.social
You can join a group by following the group account. You can post to the group by @-ing the group account, which then reposts that to all its other followers
It is similar to the existing a.gup.pe system, but chirp.social allows a group manager to delete posts and ban people from the group.
It works on all Fediverse platforms including Mastodon.
Create groups for Mastodon and other ActivityPub-enabled apps.chirp.social
Why #Mastodon and the #Fediverse are so important:
“Relying on market-based means of communication made it inevitable that sooner or later, the ruling class would get to determine who can speak and how.”

Folks, I want to boost your lovely posts, I really do but I won’t if you don’t write image descriptions (alt text) so people who use screen readers can also experience them.
It doesn’t take long to write one.
And if you’re posting an image of text and you have an iPhone, you can select the text from the image with a long press and copy/paste it.
Even Linux has apps that do this (like Frog: tenderowl.com/work/frog/)

Apologies to people waiting for me to get to their submission. I have an amazing backlog to get through 😅
You might also want to submit your account to:
➡️ communitywiki.org/trunk - The original Fediverse directory
➡️ fediverse.info/explore/people - A cleverly designed hashtag-based directory
Both of these directories welcome general personal accounts.
Whether you are disabled or not, accessibility is really useful for everyone. Accessibility makes social media easier to use and lets your posts reach a wider audience.
You can find out how to make your posts more accessible at:

An unofficial guide to using Mastodon and the Fediversefedi.tips
4 years using and championing the #fediverse full time and I've never written a #introductions toot. Well, or I have and can't find it.
I'm a #blind guy from 🇬🇧 with a passion for #technology and #programming, particularly #lowLevel #systemsProgramming in #C, #C++, #Rust, etc.
I've been a huge #freeSoftware / #openSource advocate for the majority of my life. I run #Linux and I love open, #decentralised technologies like #ActivityPub, #Matrix, #bitTorrent etc.
In my view, technology is built to make our lives easier, and in many ways, it isn't these days. It is truly my opinion that the only way #tech can be sustainable is if it's built using #FOSS, and does not give ultimate control to any 1 entity, individual or corporate. If technology is to help the people, it must be built *for* the people.

#Writers of the #Fediverse! Looking for a writing exercise/writing prompt? Join the #ALT4you and #ALT4me mutual aid effort to provide #ALT descriptive text to images in the #fediverse
ALT descriptive text is used by blind and visually impaired people to understand and process photos and images that they otherwise cannot see. So please add ALT to any images you Toot.
Putting an image into words can be a very creative exercise that forces you to look at images more deeply and then convey their content and meaning in words.
Also follow the #ALT4me hashtag. It's used by blind and visually impaired tooters (is that even a word?) to request mutual aid when they encounter an image that does not have ALT.
Respond to #ALT4me by replying with the ALT text.
Here's a great example of #ALT4me in action:
universeodon.com/@groo79/10945…
The first toot is a request for ALT and the comments provide them.
