"Decentralised social media ecosystems allow independently operated communities to communicate across shared protocols without being controlled by a single corporation.
One such example is the Fediverse, which includes platforms like micro-blogging site Mastodon and video sharing site PeerTube."
Three years ago today, the idea of the Newsmast Foundation was born 🎂
Born from the pieces of what Twitter was, our founders knew that they needed to take action to help online communities come together to inform one another once again.

Vorweg: Wenn im #Fediverse etwas nicht perfekt läuft, sind nie die vielen, meist ehrenamtlichen Admins Schuld.
Ich beobachte gerade, dass meine Instanz, https://muenchen.social, über das Web-Interface schnell ist, über die App #Fedilab aber unbrauchbar lahm. Es dauert Minuten bis nach dem Klick auf einen Tröt der Thread erscheint. Auch der Retröt-Butten reagiert mit brutaler Verzögerung. Kann das jemand erklären?

We are open source, cooperatively-run, community-led and in the process of joining the social web. We're also working collaboratively with others in the space towards different modes of decentralisation, going against enshittification and one-size-fits-all approaches.
If you'd like to support our work and help allocate more resources towards these things, there are several ways to do so at the link below. Thank you! 💪🐦⬛

RE: https://fietkau.software/daily_rucks/ap/activity/2025-11-08
I have added Mastodon-style (FEP-044f) quote post compatibility to my @DailyRucks bot. You can now quote post the daily voice lines as much as you want! 🥳
This would be noteworthy on its own if there weren't already a bunch of non-Mastodon implementations, but I'm actually late to the party. WordPress, Bonfire, micro.blog, dotmakeup, and ActivityBot all got there before I did.
However, I think my approach is novel for being *stateless*. Thread incoming.

Super important to see growing interest in overlapping research and #Fediverse. I just chipped in to @bonfire crowdfunding campaign ✨

The redesigned profile fields are now on mastodon.social.
I wasn't too sure when I first saw the mockups, but I'm starting to like this.
Hello NeoComment! 🎉
The first release of NeoComment (1.0.0-alpha.1) is now available on GitHub.
NeoComment is an Android NeoDB client. You can sign up for an account on a NeoDB instance using your Fediverse account and start writing and reading reviews, as well as rating items such as movies, games, music, podcasts or even performances.
I will publish it soon on F-Droid and IzzyOnDroid.
https://github.com/mohammadrafigh/NeoComment/releases/tag/1.0.0-alpha.1
The continued growth of mastodon.social is putting the #Fediverse in danger (here's why: https://fedi.tips/its-a-really-bad-idea-to-join-a-big-server/).
The quickest, easiest and most effective way to solve this would be if the official apps & website stopped promoting mastodon.social, and instead promoted a rotating selection from a pool of reliable servers with solid track records.
If you're comfortable using Github, please give thumbs up to all these:
- https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon-android/issues/568
- https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon-ios/issues/1023
- https://github.com/mastodon/joinmastodon/issues/1052
Bonfire has just released a new version, which includes initial support for Mastodon API endpoints (interested how this will work, as Bonfire has sooo many more post control options)
And…initial work on an ActivityPub C2S API!
