I've spent a lot of time in the Fediverse and I've noticed something important.
Here, people genuinely want to interact. On commercial social media, they’ve become mere spectators, passive to what bots and algorithms impose on them. But here, they come to talk, debate, and engage.
Here, we are human again, with other humans.

Is the world in need of a federated Craigslist/Kleinanzeigen platform? I am currently thinking about a project to dig into #fediverse development and learning #golang or stay with #deno and using #fedify.
EDIT: There is already something like that on the fediverse! It's called Flohmarkt. Thanks for the comments mentioning that!

I always gush about @ZLabe and his account, because for one thing it makes the data he works with more accessible (via #ActivityPub), but secondly because the #infographics he stares are very informative - and consistent.
Are there any other #science, #edutainment and #infographic accounts on the #fediverse that has similar consistent and qualify of posts? Think content that is fairly easily digestible during a scroll.
We're looking for the accounts that #TeachTheFediverse.

Here's to the crazy ones. The digital revolutionaries. The #fediverse builders. The ones who see social media differently.
They're not fond of #BigTech. And they have no respect for the #SurveillanceEconomy.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the people crazy enough to think they can change social media, are the ones who do.
I used to hate seeing this used in #commonlisp but I'm doing the equivalent more and more decoding #fediverse #json in #swiftlang

hello #Fediverse👋🏼I thought 2025 is done w/ me but i'm still here..
In my neighborhood & I guess all over the country, Crime & Bad People are uprising & very alarming. Long story short
My wallet,phone & important stuffs are lost💔😢 I'm beyond devastated. Just wanted to tell y'all too, My Pypal 
is having problem w/ my Address & My ID is not on their list of accepted😢 I FEEL SO DOWN & USELESS.Using my old phone that's barely functioning rn.
I just discovered why some of my followers from larger #Mastodon instances (like mastodon.social) would mysteriously unfollow me after a while!
Turns out Mastodon implements the FEP-8fcf specification (Followers collection synchronization across servers), but it expected all followers to be in a single page collection. When followers were split across multiple pages, it would only see the first page and incorrectly remove all followers from subsequent pages!
This explains so much about the strange behavior I've been seeing with #Hollo and other #Fedify-based servers over the past few months. Some people would follow me from large instances, then mysteriously unfollow later without any action on their part.
Thankfully this fix has been marked for backporting, so it should appear in an upcoming patch release rather than waiting for the next major version. Great news for all of us building on #ActivityPub!
This is why I love open source—we can identify, understand, and fix these kinds of interoperability issues together. 😊

This year, @ProPublica reported on ICE splitting up families, the people behind DOGE and their impact, the backroom dealings of Trump and others in his administration, and more. I'm proud to work with these journalists - and they need your support.
As always, I want to prove that the #fediverse is an important source of support for nonprofits like ours. We're here, we're engaged, and we care.
If you have the means, please consider a donation:

I am looking for experts/#developers who are familiar with #ActivityPub and who might be willing to chat with me.
I have started talking with parts of my network (mainly in D and NL), about how we could make the #Fediverse more interesting for content providers and main stream media. This also means attracting ordinary users to join and to find fair and simple ways to support content providers (without #paywalls).
I have some ideas, but now need more expertise and a deeper look under the hood.

#Eventbrite to be acquired by #BendingSpoons, following their acquisition of #Meetup.com which caused many users to migrate to Eventbrite in the first place. I think at this point it becomes very obvious that the #Fediverse is the best place to coordinate your meetups, and you have many options to choose from: #Mobilizon, #Gancio and even #Wordpress with the #ActivityPub Event Bridge plugin. Everyone knows Bending Spoon's playbook, enshittification is inevitable.
