Samma år som Mastodon lanserades skapade också den högerextrema sajten Gab som en reaktion mot modereringen på stora sociala medier som Facebook och Twitter. Sajten växte snabbt och 2019 gick de över till att använda en klon av Mastodon.

Högerextremister och Fediversum. Fediversum är social media där högerextremister inte gynnas av algoritmerna och där många aktivt agerar för att stänga ute högerextremister. En del programvaror får inte fritt användas av högerextremister och de instanser som tillåter högerextremism blockeras/avfedereras på de flesta instanser. Instanser som inte […]

#Brighteon is quite the eye bulger, isn't it? I never fully understood why #countersocial got defederated, but in the #Brighteon case, well...

@wjmaggos It would be pretty funny if you think #NAS is more toxic now than it used to be just because they support #RFK and oppose gender ideology and #trans activism lol

#NAS used to be way worse during the era of #Trump. #Quodverum and #Brighteon’s prevalence at the time probably didn’t help things but I remember all three instances being DEEP into the #Qanon rabbit hole, until #AlexJones disavowed it

The #Fediverse (#ActivityPub) has surpassed 12 million users!

All ActivityPub-connected #SocialMedia are at 12,608,877 users (5.6m active six months, 2.1m monthly active). Thanks to #Mastodon 8.2m users, #Lemmy 1.5m, #Misskey 1.4m, #PeerTube 317k, #Pixelfed 182k, #brighteon 151k, #microdotblog 114k, #Pleroma 107k, #WriteFreely 96k, #kbin 54k, #simplesocialnetwork 35k, #Plume 23k, #immersspace 23k, #juick 18k, #Mobilizon 17k, #bookwyrm 16k #Friendica 15k etc.

@nick @tchambers I kept #CounterSocial in the list as they were apart of the #Fediverse before being added to #Fediblock lists by numerous instances. I suspect something similar happened to #Brighteon as well.

#TruthSocial ignored the Fediverse from the beginning.

I would not be surprised if these sites rejoined the Fediverse in the near future (by reactivating #ActivityPub) now that #Instagram’s new social network (called #Threads) is entering the Fediverse.

A

@tchambers Fair point. However, I would not be surprised if #Mastodon variant sites like #Brighteon & #CounterSocial embrace the #Fediverse, albeit as a premium option.

I believe #TruthSocial’s future is chained to #Trump winning the 2024 election against #Biden.

If #DonaldTrump loses the #GOP primary or loses to #JoeBiden in the general election, then the site will shut down as they were allegedly not paying their server bill last year: https://mashable.com/article/truth-social-unpaid-bills

@tchambers Federation from #TruthSocial was removed, but the site is still heavily based upon #Mastodon. I can even login via the official Mastodon app.

Same for #Brighteon & #CounterSocial as well.

Does #Brighteon actually do hate speech and harassment? I remember them posting fake news when they first popped on the scene, but that was it.

Granted, that was years ago, and that I know of their userbase has dwindled significantly since its launch.

The #Fediverse (#ActivityPub) has surpassed 10 million users!

ところで、 #Brighteon ってなんすか？

@johndolph
Thanks for the heads up, John.

Awful. We'll be on the lookout for a version of this article that is not served with Amazon and Cloudflare trackers/malware.

Thanks again.

I will stop sharing stuff from #YouTube, #Twitter and #Facebook -- because videos always seem to go missing, so it's a complete waste of time. Now I will upload to Minds directly, or link to https://banned.video, #Brighteon or another alternative news platform.
