@Mike McCue Of course, this means that you will finally have to feature @Mike Macgirvin ?️, probably the Fediverse's biggest pioneer, on DotSocial.
This man has scratch-made two different Fediverse protocols, DFRN in 2010 and Zot in 2011. And by advancing Zot, he created a third protocol named Nomad in 2021. Thus, he is the only one to ever have created three Fediverse protocols.
He also launched more Fediverse server applications than anyone in one gigantic family tree. Four (!) of them survive to this day, namely Friendica (from 2010), Hubzilla (originally from 2012, but became Hubzilla in 2015), the streams repository (from 2021), Forte (from 2024). Mike still maintains the latter two.
Mike's big contribution to communities on the Social Web is the introduction of federated groups to the Fediverse with Mistpark (today Friendica) in 2010. This includes private groups, groups hidden from directories (directories in the Fediverse are something else that he has pioneered) and moderators in groups.
Mike's big contributions to identity on the Social Web are three-fold.
For starters, Friendica and Hubzilla let you create multiple profiles for the same identity and assign them to certain contacts. This way, you can reveal certain sides of your Fediverse identity only to specific contacts and hide them from the general public.
Besides, the Zot protocol and Red (today Hubzilla) introduced the concept of account-independent, even server-independent identity, so-called "nomadic identity" (https://joinfediverse.wiki/Nomadic_identity, https://opennomad.net). It allows your Fediverse identity, basically what amounts to an account almost everywhere else, to reside on multiple independent Fediverse servers simultaneously and identically, not only going beyond moving between servers, but establishing resilience against sudden server shutdowns. Hubzilla has it, (streams) has it, and Forte is the first Fediverse server application to use only ActivityPub for nomadic identity.
Finally, a byproduct of nomadic identity is that you can have multiple identites ("channels") on the same login that are fully independent from one another. It's like having multiple accounts elsewhere, but actually with only one login, and you can switch between these identities without having to log out and back in again. This, too, is available on Hubzilla, (streams) and Forte.

..."#Obama stood firm on the idea that the way to reclaim #democracy is to build #coalitions around taking action on #issues that matter to the #American people without regard to personal #identities or #political affiliations. #Pluralism, Obama said, “is about recognizing that in a democracy, #power comes from forging #alliances, and building coalitions, and making room in those coalitions not only for the woke but also for the waking.”
And that, in many ways,’”...

„Persönlichkeitstests begeistern nicht nur Teenager. Im nerdigen Online-Test #Particle #Identities, welches Elementarteilchen am besten zu einem passt.
Magst du Partys oder bist du lieber für dich allein? Bist du Optimist oder Pessimist? Nach nur drei bis sechs Fragen erfährt man, ob man Elektron, Higgs-Boson oder Neutrino ist.
Ganz nebenbei lernt man dabei auch etwas über #Teilchenphysik“
