🌐 The #Fediverse, a digital ecosystem based on the #ActivityPub protocol, offers an alternative to traditional #socialnetworks by allowing users greater freedom and control.

🤝 This #decentralised system, exemplified by platforms like #Mastodon, aims to create a more authentic and less exploitative experience.

🔥 However, the involvement of #mainstream #tech companies like #Meta, with its controversial history, raises concerns.

The #fediverse, a collection of #decentralised web products, aims to provide a viable #open web alternative to corporate #socialmedia.

💗 While it has a #passionate user base, it remains a #niche platform.

📲 At #FediForum, new apps like #Bounce, #Surf, and #Bandwagon were showcased, demonstrating progress in social graph migration, feed management, and monetisation for creators.
