@ericbuijs We have to be very careful about setting privacy expectations: there is no #privacy in the #ActivityPub protocol/#mastodon/the #fediverse.

Dear #TwitterMigration folks, an important tip on #privacy on the fediverse: There is none. This is a public medium; please treat it as such.Aral’s Mastodon
And here we have someone calling for kids to give up (the sense of) #privacy for global age verification... Look, kids are curious and need social status, hence they will get on #socialmedia sooner or later, so will age requirements make them understand what they're getting into? But I do agree on building a platform better suited for kids... Maybe have supervised clubs at schools running #ActivityPub instances in closed federations (connecting nearby schools)?

Changing a law to raise the age requirement for social media use could empower parents.Yuval Levin (The New York Times)
Microblog.pub is a lightweight self-hosted single user Fediverse server which can be followed from Mastodon etc.
You can find out more info at:
The official account disappeared for a while but it's now back at:
@dev
As the account notes, it's just been rewritten with version 2.0 of the software, so you may need to unfollow and then refollow.
(Having said that, I haven't been able to actually follow the account, it seems to work at first but then gives a "follow request" message? Have you managed to get this to work?)
And of course I have to learn of #ForgeFed @forgefed today. 😅 An extension to #ActivityPub. Capturing the collaborative nature of source forges.
The reason #github has kept its mountain 🗻 market share is its social network. The only true way to fight centralization is by joining our abilities as a collective. Through choice and breadth of interconnected forges we hold strength. An actual #DVCS.
reminder et al.
#ActivityPub (already ActivityStreams core) has support for **multiple** languages:

Building a European Cultural Backbone: ActivityPub
This presentation of the ActivityPub protocol was given in Linz, Austria, for the “Building a European Cultural Backbone ” convention.Benjamin Bellamy (Castopod Blog)
One week ago I launched fediverse.info
Since then, 515 people registered and have been added to 1800+ topics!
Discovery is important, and while we strive to fill this void, our ultimate goal is to help standardize discovery across the fediverse.
Every #fedi project should have this directory! #activitypub #fediverse #fediverseInfo
✨ HELLO FEDIVERSE ✨
I'm working on an introductory #book about #decentralisation protocols. 🦄
It serves as a taster for different technologies, and provides you with a path forward to deepen your studies if you're so inclined.
I'll cover #ActivityPub, #Hyper, #IPFS, and #SSB. Each chapter is a brief intro and a hands-on project using #JavaScript.
The book will be CC licensed. If that sounded interesting, add yourself to the interested readers list at:

Four Decentralisation Protocols
Join me in an exciting journey to learn about peer-to-peer technologies by building four small decentralisation projects using JavaScript.leanpub.com
"#Epicyon is an AGPL licensed #ActivityPub protocol compliant federated social network server suitable for hosting a small number of accounts on low power systems requiring minimal maintenance, such as single board computers. It's the ActivityPub equivalent of an email server, storing posts as human readable JSON on file, rather than in a database. It also uses only a small amount of RAM. "

We redesigned our Discover feature because discovery is more than just a list of popular posts or hashtags.
We added several new ways to explore content and creators, the screenshot only shows a third of them.
Shipping Soon! #pixelfed #discover #activityPub
The Fediverse has a podcasting platform called @Castopod which has accounts that can be followed from Mastodon etc. People can also comment, like or share individual episodes. More info at:
It has just moved out of alpha testing into beta testing, with a new interface and lots of new features.
Podcasts can also (of course!) be followed through RSS instead, if you prefer.
