A quiet afternoon, then a sudden, beautiful interruption. An unexpected message from a stunning person, a silent force in the fediverse. They've done more for this place and for me than so many of the more vocal accounts - more than I have, even.

This is the very essence of what I adore about this community. It's a place for genuine connection, where real people build real relationships.

To the one who sent that message: Thank you. It arrived exactly when I needed it most.

I perceive 3 fediverses..

fediverse-we-have: Has proven it works, and has delightful #apps to show for it.

fediverse-we-need: The future of #SocialNetworking, where it pervasively serves #people and #society at large.

#fediverse-we-get: Still unknown.

Imho the trajectory of #development of the fediverse-we-have does not lead to fediverse-we-need.

Fediverse-we-get on this path is either a nice #SocialMedia niche for a time, or eventual corporate capture and takeover. A corporate #SocialWeb.

Good day you #beautiful #FediFriends! Just a reminder that tomorrow, May 1st (can't believe it's May already) at 0900 Eastern / UTC -4, we'll be speaking with @ChrisWere !

Just a reminder that Chris is a former #Youtuber, now exclusive to #Peertube and is on shows #Freebooters and #Space #Virgins: First Contact.

Please send me any questions you might have Chris!

Just a reminder to folks that I'm going to be talking with @freebliss tomorrow, July 31st at 1300 Eastern UTC-4.

This certainly isn't because I'm doing my show notes atm and doing research, but Simon's stuff is fantastic and I can't wait to show it off. Not just Simon's #developer #projects, but also Simon's #art.

Very excited to talk to Simon tomorrow! Everyone make sure to let me know any questions you have for Simon and/or stop by the Livestream! Catch the VOD or Fedicast afterwards!
