Warum Sharkey?
Ich bin schon seit einigen Jahren im Fediverse unterwegs. Mastodon, Friendica, GoToSocial, Firefish – ich habe sie alle ausprobiert. Jede Instanz war ein neuer Versuch, ein neues Fragment von dem, was ich suche: einen Ort, an dem meine Gedanken nicht nur verhallen, sondern Resonanz finden.
Man muss sich irgendwann die Frage stellen: Was will ich eigentlich mit all dem? Und welche Funktionen braucht es, um das zu ermöglichen?
Sharkey ist ein Fork von Misskey. Und genau hier habe ich gefunden, was ich brauche. MFM, Gruppen, Kanäle, Clips, Seiten – all diese Dinge ermöglichen mir, Inhalte auf eine Weise zu teilen, die zu mir passt. Es geht nicht nur um das Posten, sondern um Austausch und Zusammenarbeit. Um Räume, in denen eine kleine Gemeinschaft wachsen kann, spezifisch und geschützt.
Das Design? Endlich etwas, das nicht aussieht, als wäre es in den frühen 2000ern oder gar 1990ern hängen geblieben. Es ist stimmig, aufgeräumt und modern, ohne dabei kühl zu wirken.
Und obwohl Sharkey viele Funktionen bietet, bleibt es ein Microblog – und das ist gut so. Verständlich, klar strukturiert. Hubzilla mag mächtiger sein, aber darin liegt auch seine Schwäche: es erschlägt, verwirrt, verliert die einfachen Nutzer:innen schnell im Dschungel seiner Möglichkeiten.
Ich hoffe, dass Sharkey bleibt. Dass die Entwickler:innen weiter daran arbeiten, dass es wächst und nicht – wie Calckey oder Firefish – irgendwann einfach verschwindet. Es scheint ein Fluch zu sein, der auf Misskey-Forks liegt. Und doch: vielleicht überlebt Sharkey. Vielleicht bricht es den Zyklus.
Für jetzt jedenfalls bin ich angekommen.
Ich wünsche euch einen ruhigen, erholsamen Sonntag. Wir alle suchen einen Ort, der uns nicht verändert – sondern versteht.

Continuo a pensare che gli #hashtag nel #fediverso, almeno quello italiano, vengano usati pochissimo(soprattutto "in lettura", per scoprire post di altrз) e, a mio parere, è un peccato perchè le TL non rendono molto.
Quella LOCALE, soprattutto in istanze fortemente tematiche, rischia di essere ripetitiva e la FEDERATA è decisamente dispersiva.
Sono dell'idea che l'uso degli hashtag, eventualmente abbinato alla visualizzazione delle TL locali di altre istanze, client permettendo, sia una buona soluzione.
P.S. gli hashtag specifici di istanza sono "simpatici" a volte ma, se non accompagnati da quelli generici, rischiano la ridondanza con la TL locale (soprattutto su istanze medio piccole).

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

#Idea: decentralised #microblogging application where each user has a self-hosted feed, each post is referencable by a permalink, and replies reference the post they are replying to.
And that's it.
You subscribe to the feeds of people you are interested in like you would subscribe to an RSS, Atom, or JSON feed, and your client could automatically load references in the posts in your home feed.

Mood: in awe of a tiny little snail i saw at the park today. Im grateful for my park, grateful at the slow passage of time.

I remember when microblogging was all about the witty 140 characters 🤣. Sharing thoughts and engaging in conversations was so simple then. Now, if it's not a picture-perfect moment, does it even exist? 🤔 I miss the good old days of effortless online banter. #microblogging #nostalgia #instadays
Just replied to #SocialHub discussion to @evanprodromou #FEP on #fediverse support for long-form text.
There's a broader discussion that the #ActivityPub dev community isn't really addressing.
Nowhere in the #W3C specs is defined that #Microblogging is the foundation of #SocialNetworking. And certainly not #Mastodon's app-specific interpretation of this domain.
The entire AS extension mechanism is overlooked, and that leads to a massive ⚒️ Golden Hammer anti-pattern.

PubSub is also a W3C publication standard, it's used by the XMPP-based Movim social and (not just micro)blogging platform, which didn't really take off, because Google and Facebook nerfed XMPP.
Movim's blog is PubSub: https://mov.im/community/pubsub.movim.eu/Movim/

My right hand make me suffer a lot. Enough to not be able to work for a long time. Typing on the keyboard become a pain after 20'.
It's hard to configure jails, using #BSSG, writing a blog post or even #microblogging
In the same time I could have a book or an e-reader
It's time for me to stop those activities.
What happens to the “pocket.co” links that #Pocket used when you shared from within it? They don’t work any more. 😱
My early #microblogging shares are a graveyard of “pocket.co”, “zite.to”, “j.mp” links. 😰
Mise à niveau de #Mastodon vers la v4.3.8, s'est impeccablement bien déroulé 😎
Que demander de plus 😉
Il faut que je pense à leur offrir un ☕

The micro-blogging version of a podcast is — short-form video and short-form audio.
I previously wrote about that here, in the following thread:

Your focus has shifted to #Bluesky for #Microblogging to replace old twitter.
That means more attention freed for #ActivityPub. The future of #social networking is strengthening #human connection online.
Let's lead the way forward in how #technology can serve mankind, instead of mindless digital transformation that only serves #capitalism and the bottom line.
We can envision a #peopleverse together. A place where online and offline are seamlessly connected, not separate worlds.
