"At FediCon, as much happened in the cafes, bars and lobbies around the conference hall as during the talks. Lots of servers in the Fediverse are patches, or Third Spaces. They’re communities."

Energised by FediCon, @michael has put his pen to paper to explore how we can grow the Fediverse by thinking outside of the current space.

Registered for the next @fediforum online UNConference in October! Hope to see you there.

Also just reviewed @cyberlyra 's talk from #fedicon #fedicon2025 last week - I highly recommend this one. It's not a product or demo talk or a how-to, it's a great WHY to on the topic of getting ourselves un-captured from corporate technopolies. August is #chuckZuck month, for those trying to exit the Meta properties.

Give it a listen.

If you are interested in how the Fediverse really works and some of the key people making it happen, sit down with a coffee and check out one (or all!) of the presentations from #fedicon.

Mine was about my journey finding the Fediverse and eventually teaming up with folks to create socialbc.ca and what I learned along the way.

And yes, I am pretty sure we are in a Stanley Kubrick movie.

Just an FYI: If you missed #FediCon, or just want to see the talks, they are being edited and uploaded to #PeerTube. There’s only three talks up so far, but I am helping @reiver to add more of them, and ensure that there are accurate captions and nice little thumbnails.

You can see a playlist of all #FediCon2025 talks, sorted in order, here: https://spectra.video/w/p/52g7HzMoUCxEm9nU339mPf

Final thoughts re: FediCon 2025

As I write this, I'm sitting on an airplane flying over the Canadian prairies on my way home from Vancouver, BC.

What an amazing group of individuals, who took the time out of their extraordinarily busy lives to see, hear, and learn about the fediverse! The connections made and ideas discussed were so important, and you could feel the energy in the air.

You'd think after a solid six hours a day in a lecture hall would be enough, but at every opportunity in between, there were lively discussions about ActivityPub and the fediverse. It turns out when you get all of us in a group together we can talk and continue to talk about the open social web for ages.

I now have a to-do list about a kilometer long, they all need to get done ASAP!

Thank you to @reiver@mastodon.social for organizing this conference, all of those who helped out and participated, and all those who attended.

From now on, whenever someone points a camera to me, I'll picture @jaz@toot.wales saying "say FEEEEEEDIVERSE".
