Dear Fedi friends,

By now you might have seen the post announcing the release of my promotional video for the Fediverse. But in case you have boosts turned off, here we go: https://news.elenarossini.com/fediverse-video/

I posted about it this morning from my #GoToSocial account because I have a 5000 character limit there. And I had so many people to thank for their help. It really takes a village.

Thank you for all the wonderful feedback so far ❤️

Great work @_elena! A couple of notes.

There's significant work to done to enable the full account portability implied by "you own your own data". That's certainly the future we aspiring to here. But unless you are the admin of your own server, for now it's more accurate to say 'your server admins owns your data'.

Also, there isn't really a full replacement for FarceBook yet. Comparing Friendica to FB sets expectations that often don't match the reality. Which isn't really fair to Friendica.
