Looking for Fediverse oddities!
I am super late, OVER THE DEADLINE to submit the slides of my talk at SFSCON 2025, but I still want to add a few little things, and I need tips.
My presentation ends by listing a few “crazy but true” things about the Fediverse.
Can you help me find a few more in the next couple hours?
So far I have:
- Truth Social uses Mastodon and it was forced to open-source its code after it was discovered
- Some public institutions host their own Fediverse instances!
- You could host a Fediverse server in your living room
- You can use a car’s on-board computer to power a Fediverse server
- You can synchronize your personal calendar with federated calendars from the Fediverse (using @gancio)
- You can buy indie music by paying an artist directly (using @bandwagon)
- You can do academic peer-reviews via the Fediverse (using @bonfire)
What else??? I only want cool or incredible things.
