If your instance is blocking an instance with folks you'd like to still read, you can add any Mastodon account to your feed reader (I like NetNewsWire myself) by using the following formula:
#feditips #rss #mastodontips #feeds #fediverse #twittermigration #migration
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.

Tematami są #Mastodon, #fediverse, #activitypub i możliwości, jakie dają osobom niewidomym. Daję link, ale nie wiem, czy polecać. #Tyflopodcast ma strasznie długie audycje i nie każdy przebrnie przez całość. Ale jeżeli jednak, to poproszę o komentarz.

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.
Vielfältig und gemeinschaftsbasiert - so ist das #Fediverse.

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)

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.
You can already verify your account on here without using any centralised lists:

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.)
Is the fediverse about to get Fryed? (Or, “Why every toot is also a potential denial of service attack”)

Is the fediverse about to get Fryed? (Or, “Why every toot is also a potential denial of service attack”)
Every time I post something that gets lots of engagement, I essentially end up carrying out a denial of service attack on myself. What does this say about the design of Mastodon and ActivityPub and the future of the fediverse?Aral Balkan
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
> But, equally, it also makes the case that a system optimised to host hundreds of thousands of people on a single instance is not also somehow magically optimised to host just one person.
IDK; one of the major backends on the #Fediverse is #Pleroma and its cousins, which despite being more efficient (thus scaling better) than #Mastodon, it's largely used for single-instance users.
What happens when you have your own Mastodon instance (just for you) where over 21,000 people follow you and when you’re following over 4,300 people?
You end up paying ~€50/month for Mastodon hosting 👀
It also opens up interesting questions: what happens when a popular account joins your instance (hint: it will probably cost the instance maintainers quite a bit… I don’t envy the mastodon.nu folks right now).
This one is for all the new people on #Mastodon: did you know that the #fediverse has more than just a microblogging replacement? And that they can all interoperate with your Mastodon account?

“Mastodon’s new sign-ups include some Twitter users with big followings, such as actor and comedian @kathygriffin, who joined in early November, and journalist @mollyjongfast, who joined in late October.”
Thanks again to everyone who's contributed to the costs of running this community! You're helping keep this space in the #fediverse independent and sustainable.
If you can afford to help support it, especially as hundreds of new people join, you can donate (and see our finances) here: opencollective.com/writingexch…
Any amount helps, and a recurring monthly or yearly donation is very appreciated!
RSS fans!
You can get RSS feeds of any specific tag in fedi.directory by adding /feed/ to the end of the tag's URL.
For example the tag for "Gardening" is at the URL:
...so if you wanted to use RSS to track all new gardening accounts, the feed would be:
fedi.directory/tag/gardening/f…
When new accounts are added to tags you follow like this, they will appear in your RSS feed.
You may be aware that there is something called the #Fediverse.
But do you know about all the different types of applications that run on the Fediverse?
I made this visual to give myself and others something to point at when explaining "the big picture".
You may be surprised by how many services beyond Mastodon there are to explore.

That post also has links to all the different applications.

The difference between a closed, algorithmically-curated silo like Twitter and the fediverse.
Same post.
Twitter: ~43K “followers”, 8 boosts, 58 likes
Fediverse: ~8.43K followers, 57 boosts, 106 likes
Your thousands of “followers” on Twitter mean nothing because the algorithm (i.e., Twitter, Inc.) decides who gets to hear you.
