There was an interesting follow up discussion happening around account portability and identity this week: https://j12t.social/@j12t/114705580486516177 . There's some super interesting links on that thread too for you to read more.
If you have thoughts or ideas, go continue the discussion this #FediForumFriday

On this #FediForumFriday, check out the incredible range of topics that have been discussed at #FediForum over 5 events we have run so far. All of the sessions were proposed and hosted by attendees, and we have notes for most of them.
In exciting #FediForumFriday news that technically was last Friday but it was so close to the wire I'm sharing anyway, @fediforum got their keynotes and demos uploaded along with the notes from June's #FediForum so you can go and check out all the amazing things that happened there for free: https://fediforum.org/2025-06/ .
It's #FediForumFriday- your reminder to check in with projects you're excited about, ask for or offer help, or just chat with the folks you met and refresh the joy and motivation you felt at #FediForum.
For those of you who attended @LaurensHof presentation at #FediForum and want to keep up with Fediverse news, it's now called Connected Places, and covers all kinds of decentralized social networks.

Allowing #Bigtech to influence our digital laws which shall ensure consumer + digital rights against commercial profits under the frame of #deregulation is undemocratic as it is against the interests of the 馃嚜馃嚭 people.
Call on your national governments that this is not acceptable 馃敟
One of the discussions at #FediForum was around making it easier for new people to join and @jaz has whipped up a great proof-of-concept provider picker that he wants your thoughts on.
