"The third-party app store known as #AltStore, one of the first companies to offer an alternative app #marketplace in the European Union, is preparing to connect its platform with the open social web known as #thefediverse.
The move would connect users on other open social apps, like Mastodon or Meta’s Threads, with updates from their favorite apps in a new way."

#theFediverse : "Some might say that #decentralisation without a unifying centre will weaken our collective voice. But history shows that #movements thrive when they are many-voiced. A network of independent spaces, each with its own #governance and #culture, is harder to silence, co-opt, or corrupt than any single global fediverse could ever be."

"In #federatedsocialmedia, localisation allows users to engage with people who share common regional experiences and concerns. This alignment supports better contextual understanding of speech norms, and the amplification of #localvoices often overlooked on global platforms.
#Regionalservers can also serve as hubs for civic discourse, activism, and community support, making them vital for democratic engagement and #culturalpreservation."

#Automattic has #halted plans to move #Tumblr’s backend to #WordPress, prioritising user-facing improvements: While the move may be revisited, it currently impacts Tumblr’s potential #integration with #thefediverse. https://www.theverge.com/news/695124/tumblr-wordpress-automattic-fediverse-integration-on-hold-decoder?Fedizen.EU #Fedizen #Fediverse #ActivityPub #News
"…many #publicinstitutions want to move away from Facebook and Twitter, but feel locked in. They know those platforms are toxic, yet all the people are there. But what if we stopped treating #theFediverse like a chaotic free-for-all and started showing how it can also work for structured, “responsible” #publishing? #WordPress already has millions of users. The #ActivityPubplugin is mature, maintained, and already working. All it takes is will, and a little guidance."

Der har været lidt stille hos Instagrams søsterplatform Threads i forhold til deres Fedivers-fremstød. Men mediet har på sin blog løftet sløret for en række nye funktioner. Og nu kommer det kedelige så, for godt nok er funktionerne tilgængelige globalt, men ikke for folk i den europæiske union!?
Svaret fandt jeg måske i et gammelt nyhedsopslag – men først lige en hurtig […]

Great!
#TheFediverse is an example of #MarkFisher's #postcapitalistisland.

"Let me be crystal clear before we begin: I say all of the below with love for #thefediverse.. Deep, stubborn, open-source-loving, billionaire-eschewing love. I want the #OpenSocialWeb to win. But wanting it isn’t enough. If we want this thing to thrive we have to face the #userexperience sins head-on—and maybe even laugh at them a little along the way."

"At the heart of these alternative apps lies #theFediverse platform — a portmanteau of "federated" and "universe" that represents a radical reimagining of how social media can work. Unlike traditional platforms where users are locked into isolated ecosystems, the Fediverse operates as an interconnected network of independent servers that communicate with each other through a standard protocol called #ActivityPub."
FediDB, der før primært var et statistiksite over Fediversets servere, har fået sig en vild opgradering. Nu kan du også finde interessante profiler, der kan bruges som en “starter pack” til Fediverset – og tilmed har sitet fået sig en imponerende emneopdelt oversigt over apps.
Sitet er absolut et must blandt dine bogmærker, hvis du vil holde dig ajour med Fediverset.

"Rossini’s video followed a keynote presentation on day 2 of #FediForum by Christine Lemmer-Webber... She made the point that the apps that came to dominate in the Web 2.0 era (such as Twitter and Meta’s Facebook) were centralized, and that #theFediverse aims to return to the peer-to-peer internet that preceded Web 2.0.
#LemmerWebber also noted that “we can’t succeed without #joy.” In other words, the web should be fun, as it was when it started in the 1990s."

"This new #payment system allows for ways to financially support artists on #theFediverse, and the levels of support resemble a hybrid of what both #Bandcamp and #Patreon offer. Not only does this feature include line items for digital media, but a new mechanism for access and distribution. Additionally, the flagship instance of Bandwagon.fm will be taking 0% of any money #musicians make."
"Federating #Ghost means publishers no longer have to choose between owning their work and reaching an audience. You post once, on your own domain, and it travels everywhere.
While centralized networks are coming apart as battles rage between the most powerful people on earth who own them, #thefediverse represents an #alternative path.
It's an answer to the question: What if nobody owned this? The same question that #TimBernersLee posed to the world, 35 years ago."
“Giv mig 4 minutter, og jeg vil ændre dit syn på social media for evigt”.
Den italienske filmskaber, fotograf og aktivist Elena Rossini har produceret en flot videopræsentation omhandlende “The Fediverse”.

It is fair.. no friends / peers, no #socialnetwork.
But if #theFediverse is "the future of some of the most interesting parts of the web", maybe it deserve some hard work.
Without the algo, you have to weave your own network, and by now you must be the pioneer amidst your peers, don't give up.
#Hashtags and #lists are my main tools to explore and annotate the findings, try it out.
And good luck!!
