The United Federation of Instances project already has close to 40 overall contibutors, 13 Merge Requests, 16 topics being disussed, and closed to 50 overall comments on topics.... The #UFoI is really taking off!
Hey @yatil - I came across your #accessibility in the #fediverse post: yatil.net/blog/accessibility-i…
I'm currently working on a #chess game that can be played over Mastodon, and I'm keen for it to be as good an experience as it can be for everyone. I've done some research, have a prototype, and now I feel like I can start talking to users...
Would you be willing to offer your thoughts, and could you recommend a few people I could email or chat to?
Accessibility in the Fediverse (and Mastodon) · Eric Eggert
Many people think about moving or at least establishing a presence in the so-called Fediverse. The Fediverse is (and this is probably a very shortened and incorrect) a collection of distributed web applications that can talk to each other.Eric Eggert

Hey friends! ottawa.place is now open for signups 🎉🇨🇦❤️
@andrew and I built it as a hosted-in-Canada, capital-region-focused (but open to all Canadians) instance.
Please boost so folks can find us! 👀

Do you want to publish long form texts on the Fediverse?
You might want to try @writefreely, a writing platform which focuses entirely on the text and has a minimalist interface to reduce distractions. More info at:

Because it's part of the Fediverse, you can follow Write Freely accounts from Mastodon.
You can also set up your own server to create your own blogging community.

Are those of you here in the #Fediverse aware of the amazing resource that is mynoise.net?
No?
Let me introduce you.
It has a medieval village #background #noise environment with toggles you can use to increase or decrease the blacksmith shop and market and horse clops (among many others).
Oh, you want a coffee shop? Sure thing.
Rain? Thunderstorm? Gotcha.
Generic white noise?
RPG thrills? Of course.
Tame that #tinnitus? Yes!

Have you met Guppe Groups
a.gup.pe/
Groups are different from #hashtags in an important way: you will only see posts with hashtags your instance knows about — it's essentially a search feature. With groups it's different: if a remote account from the other side of the #fediverse posts to a group you follow, you will get it!
Anyone can create a group just by following it.

Snad ten zájem o #opensource a #fediverse vydrží.
Yesterday I deleted whole #FediSearch index and started crawling the #fediverse from scratch.
So many new accounts should be discovereable now.

As more and more people are asking me about Mastodon I felt a need for a picture to point at, showcasing how the software known as Mastodon fits into the much larger concept of the Fediverse.Per Axbom (Axbom • Digital Compassion)
👉 Napište něco o sobě na svůj profil, nemusí to být osobní údaje, ale mělo by to dát lidem vědět, kdo jste a co vás zajímá
👉 Napište veřejný příspěvek
👉 Zapojte se do konverzací, sledujte ostatní lidi a nakonec získáte nějaké zpět.
👉 Na Mastodon se přihlaste přes web, přejděte na Nastavení Navrhnout účet ostatním , zaškrtněte políčko a klikněte na Uložit změny .
A hlavně užívejte na svobodné síti

NPR's "On The Media" has a segment this morning on #Mastodon which is a pretty good introduction to the #fediverse.
They talk specifically about designed non-virality on M*; and the absence of quote-tweets, how this hurts #BlackTwitter #BlackMastodon.

Distributed social media - Mastodon & Fediverse Explained
Mastodon is a "federated" social network that works like Twitter. It puts the control of data into the user's hands, not in a single corporation.Mastodon use...YouTube
Highly recommend all #DisabledSocial and new Mastodon users read the following tips on how to stay safe in the #Fediverse

Staying Safe on Mastodon and the Fediverse | Fedi.Tips – An Unofficial Guide to Mastodon and the Fediverse
An unofficial guide to using Mastodon and the Fediversefedi.tips
A lot of people are moving to @Mastodon, but I also get a lot of misconceptions and questions about how it works, and about this cool giant social network that is the #Fediverse, including @pixelfed or @peertube. So, to answer all these questions, and myabe introduce you to some other parts of the Fediverse, I think it's time for a quickstart guide!
Mastodon, Peertube, Pixelfed: easily replace Twitter, Instagram and YouTube
Make sure your Python applications stay relevant for longer: https://bit.ly/3CyfKnL Grab a brand new laptop or desktop running Linux:https://www.tuxedocomput...YouTube
The 2nd (and by far biggest) wave of new #Mastodon user additions is declining... which isn't a bad thing at all. It gives all the admins some time to relax and to take care of their servers.
And it helps all of us to engage with interesting new accounts to make sure that they'll stay here. The amount of amazing new users, scientists, journalists, creators... this was such an incredible quality-content boost for Mastodon and the #fediverse
Thank you for being part of this. You rock 🤘
And please please please support your admins. Donate or tell them how great they are.
Wait... screw that!
👉 Tell them how great they are AND donate!
These guys are creating the platform we all love. Thank you 🙏
Powstał mały katalog aktywnych użytkowników w (głównie) polskim #fediwersum, który może trochę pomóc odnaleźć się nowym osobom.
Z czasem będzie rozszerzany o filtry tematyczne - na podstawie tagów w biogramie oraz tagów używanych w postach, więc jeszcze raz gorący apel ode mnie - tagumy, tagujmy, tagujmy 🔁
Fedi nie ma takich narzędzi do odkrywania interesujących tematów jak tradycyjne social media, więc trzeba tu trochę własnej inicjatywy.
Lista składa się z osób mających publiczny (api:discoverable) oraz uzupełniony biogram.

Please don't use #Fedified! 🙏
This is what it says about itself:
"(Fedified) is *the* way to make sure that you're following the account managed by the same person you used to follow on Twitter."
It wants to be a central authority. This is dangerous, and opposite to what the #Fediverse stands for.
People become dependent on a central authority, then it gets bought out by billionaires.

Being "inefficient" isn't always a bad thing!
> The incentives are different. […] The inefficiency doesn't matter!
Matt Mullenweg (founder of Wordpress and current owner of Tumblr) wants to know how you want Tumblr integrated into the #fediverse (or #bluesky). Those of you who have Twitter accounts should go voice your ideas directly cause this will probably happen in the not so distant future (they already had a job posting listed last year where they were looking for #ActivityPub people)
❣️ the energy.
If everyone has their own instance/server wouldn't this example require 23k Sidekiq jobs instead of 3k?
Isn't that LESS scalable, for everyone.
You highlight a #fediverse problem to be solved but not sure everyone going DIY is the answer. (If this is the case.)

Zde super článek od @sesivany

Představte si, že jste primárně na Twitteru, protože vám forma microbloggingu vyhovuje, ale chcete sledovat jednoho kamaráda na Instagramu. Sociální síť založená na obrázcích vás jinak nebere a nechcete tam mít účet a sledovat ji, ale rádi byste příspěvky kamaráda sledovali, reagovali na ně, psali komentáře. Kdyby byl Twitter a Instagram ve fediverse, šlo by to.
Fediverse začíná dávat smysl
Myšlenka otevřených navzájem komunikujících sociálních sítí zní pěkně, ale realita je taková, že nejpopulárnější sociální sítě jsou dnes uzavřené zahrady. A i mezi lidmi, kteří jinak prosazují otev…Sesivany's Blog
Fediverse je obří síť služeb sociálních médií.
Existují zde platformy pro mikroblogování, blogování, fotoblogování, videohosting a mnoho dalších a všechny jsou vzájemně propojené nebo federované.
Ke sledování uživatelů na kterékoli z platforem vám tedy stačí jeden účet.
Už se nám naše instance opět trošičku rozrostla. Některé účty znám ještě z dob, kdy jsem začínal s Linuxem. Tak užívejte pohody ve světě #fediverse a #opensource
