My first #FediForum and it’s a pleasure to greet, meet, and discuss with „the federation“, people who build, use and progress what we call the #Fediverse.

First session: EU Policy with @samvie, second session Custom feeds with @mike and of course a keynote of @pluralistic. And so many more great sessions I could not attend (which is a quality sign for barcamps).

Thanks to @j12t and team! A had a great afternoon (Berlin time) and I am looking forward to the next two days.

What if social networks served people in all their diverse complexity — instead of the streamlined simplicity of big platforms?

Bonfire Social is our first app: built for meaningful connection and conversation – community-governed spaces you can make your own.

It’s part of a modular framework that empowers communities to build the tools they need — and shape how they work and feel.

There's more #FediForum demos!

- I missed the one from @newsmast sorry!

- @ivanminutillo presents @bonfire version 1.0. Feature: 'circles' allows fine-grained options to reach lists of follower types e.g. monster-movie fans. He shows options for UI customization without tech knowledge. There's a blog post with more info:

Even moar #Fediforum demos 😍

Davide Eynard shows how to create your own algorithms for your feeds. It is not clear for me how I'd use it, but I'm pretty sure Davide can explain it in more detail. If I remember correctly Davide showed a similar demo @fosdem at the beginning of this year?

- @mike continues the #Fediforum demo round with Surf.social an app to 'surf channels (custom feeds)'. Apparently it is protocol agnostic(?): it works with RSS/BlueSky & ActivityPub. It's also possible to use a TikTok like interface to just 'watch' or use a Listen option to just listen. It looks like a better UI/UX of Mastodon lists to me, if that makes sense.

#Fediforum demos

1. @anewsocial and snarfed.org@snarfed.org showed "Bounce" a tool to migrate between different social apps with different protocols e.g. from Bluesky to Mastondon or vice versa.

2. @benpate shows "Bandwagon" an application for musicians & artists to share their work & get paid using Stripe or other payment providers. He's using "Emissary"(?) to build this. Online payments are indeed important as Ben stated.

Awesome demo's. Very inspiring!
