If you have seen this strange hashtag #forkiverse it’s a bunch of people joining a server run by some big podcasts. It seems to have gotten a lot of activity because they just featured it in a podcast episode. Here’s the link to the episode.

@paco Thank you. I like the name. Was confused what it was.

@Hicsumus @paco The podcasters include @Casey of Platformer fame, and also @kevin who's the NY Times tech reporter.

So very prominent and respected tech journalists.

They've written a lot about the problems with social media over the years.

So as an experiment, they decided to try setting up their own social network using Mastodon, and encouraged their listeners to join.

So far, around 2000 listeners have signed up.

And I personally hope it works 😊
