Gentle #reminder fedizens .. ✨
Check out some of these other #delightful experiences that exist all across our small #fedi. Don't restrict yourself to just mastodon and #microblogging.
Like @pixelfed for example. 😃

These are great #ideas, and also typical candidates to file an #ideation issue for at the #fediverse ideas repository, at..
https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fediverse-ideas/issues
As long-time #fedi advocate and #FOSS passionado I've seen countless times #people #come #together on nifty #ActivityPub ideas, only for it to fade out, and be forgotten again, until the next person throws it into ephemeral #microblog timeline voids.

🌻 Before the big social media companies, FidoNet was a network where people talked on simple bulletin boards.
You only saw the messages you chose, and you could download them to read later—no endless scrolling! It was simple, and the people had control.
What if we made the Fediverse work like that?
Here’s why it could work easily:
1️⃣ 📖 Read When You Want: You get the messages and read them later. No need to scroll all day. This keeps your energy right (Coherence).
2️⃣ 🎯 Only See What You Want: You choose the groups you read. No junk or bad vibes you didn't ask for. Clean feed, clean mind.
3️⃣ 🏡 You Own Your Friends: If you move to a new server, your connections move with you. You control your own online home.
This is why #fedi is so special. It puts people first. THIS IS THE WAY.
Thanks to @the_turtle for sharing about #FidoNet!

Watching The Indie Beat TV right now on Owncast!
Not only do they have music videos from folks from around the Fediverse, and they're really good imo, but they also have an animation hour planned! If you have animation you'd like to submit to be on IBTV you can submit your stuff here: https://robertafidora.com/animation-array

Why is #SocialBookmarking mostly always flat lists, persisted as rows in most basic datastores?
Instead why aren't they 😋 juicy metadata-hung 🍒 nuggets, sparkling in rich semantic tapestries, discovered in lush forests of #SocialWeb, where insights and knowledge can be gleaned? Fruits that lure us to explore, be more connected to others.
🍓 Personal #prosperity vaults!
Tech's there..

Helpful #fedi, when a quote toot is shown as needing to be approved, how does the quoted party actually do this approving?

🐘 Who owns your posts? On the #Fediverse, the answer is you.
When you join #Mastodon or any server, think of it as packing your stuff into a great, moveable home. 🏡 Your posts, your connections, everything is inside!
If you decide your server (your home) isn't the right fit, you don't lose your stuff. You can pack up and move to a new server, and your followers come with you! Your content is portable because of the open rules (ActivityPub).
A big company can't delete your home or decide who visits you.
This is the key realisation: If you can move your account whenever you want, then you are the one in charge. No giant company gets to decide the fate of your words or your community.
The #OpenWeb is about power for the people who make the content. What does owning your data mean for your peace of mind?
This is why I love Fedi: genuine ownership. I still use LinkedIn to share these thoughts and invite others here (it's a necessary bridge), but #fedi is where the real connection and control lives.

💕 Kudos for the great work by @melvincarvalho
#SocialDocs is going direction where #ActivityPub desperately waited for us to come :)
🍒 Let tingle bells ring, my fellow #fedi, and aggregate more value to this precious :gem:

Joined #Fedi and Bsky on the same evening. Made basically the same intro post on both.
Woke to 67 followers on #Mastodon, several encouraging responses, and tons of faves/shares on intro post.
Bluesky: 1 follower, 1 reply, 5 faves, zero reposts.
Pretty evident where the real community is, wouldn't you say?
Thank you for the warm welcome! ❤️
