fediverse
#Loops has entered #beta with #ActivityPub support, allowing users to connect with creators across the #fediverse. This means users can follow and interact with creators on platforms like #Mastodon and #Pixelfed, and vice versa. Loops has implemented several technical features to ensure smooth federation, including a shared inbox, HTTP signatures, and smart content representation. https://blog.joinloops.org/loops-joins-the-fediverse/?Fedizen.EU #Fedizen #Fediverse #ActivityPub #News
Imaginez, de manière hypothétique, l'idée de lancer une instance / un serveur pour le continent african (+ diaspora) dans le Fédivers.
Supposons que l'extension TLD ".africa" soit utilisée.
Quel nom donneriez-vous pour que les utilisateur viennent, comprennent de quoi il s'agit, le mémorise, etc.
Merci de partager, pour une visibilité maximum. Merci.

As stated in our bio, we are regularly purging followers from mastodon.social. Today, we purged 7 followers.
If you want to foster the #Fediverse as it is meant to be, please move away from the monstrous instance that tries to funnel each and every new person to their server, by making it look like they were the default, at joinmastodon.org
We condemn this dark pattern.

All https://fedihost.co #Mastodon instances have been updated to v4.4.7
Thank you!
Learn more about this release here:
https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.4.7
Is anyone using https://fedify.dev? Has it been good for you in production? I have a tiny app idea that would be an excellent fit for activitypub, but I also don't want to spend too much time implementing the federation bits.
CrowdBucks update:
The CrowdBucks team is working on adding Euro (€) support.
⁂
CrowdBucks is a open-source, Fediverse-native, self-hostable way to FUND THE FEDIVERSE.
To help support Fediverse server sysops, to support Fediverse developers, to support creators, and more.
⁂
Accepting Euro is relatively easy. But, there is some work to add Euro support to the user-experience.

Are you tired of the games and ads on LinkedIn? If you want to explore an alternative professional social media network on the #fediverse, have a look at #nolto. No clue yet what it is, who built it, who is running it, but it federated nicely with my personal fediverse site and account. No need to login, just federate with it, nice, smooth.
If you have a fediverse account somewhere, like mastodon, misskey, GotoSocial, connect with me at:

Interesting development for #ScholarlyCommunication in the #Fediverse!
I'm testing @encyclia, a tool that connects the Fediverse and #ORCID, making ORCID records followable.
Follow my ORCID @0000-0002-6021-3695 and new publications automatically appear in your timeline.
It's an alpha version with still some hiccups, but this looks cool. Thanks @julian for building this!
You wanted open source and transparency from Loops.
We heard you.
The new Loops app is now developed in the open — follow the progress, clone the repo, or help build it.
It “only” took me a few years to find out that I don’t need to have a PeerTube or Lemmy account to interact with them; I just need to copy/paste the link in Mastodon search and then follow or reply.
Why no one is saying this little detail FIRST to all the n00bs coming from the Horror socials? After this you can explain the fediverse; Now Activity Pub makes so much sense to an atechnical person.

Hey everyone,
Gaza Verified is now open again for verification calls in 2026.
The new process for signing up for verification calls uses sign in with Mastodon and should remove the last remaining technical hurdle that was giving some of our friends in Gaza a hard time (adding the verification link to your Mastodon account is not intuitive in the current Mastodon interface). With this new flow, you won’t have to, we do it for you.
Also, please remember that Israel, USA, and Germany are continuing their genocide of the Palestinian people with the complicity of the UK and almost the entire rest of the EU.
And we can help, if only a little. And even if it’s just a drop in the ocean it’s still a meaningful drop for those it helps:
