Gerade gejubelt: #Prebunking funktioniert!!! 🤩

Hatte die Tage zur #Trump - Kampagne gegen @hateaid gewarnt, dass wir mit #Digitalgewalt gegen die kommende #LandtagswahlBW rechnen müssen. Möchte am 19.1.26 mit Carlo #Masala in #Stuttgart darüber reden. 🇪🇺🇺🇸🤔

Nun jammern nichteurop. X - er, die schon lange gegen demokratische Parteien & Politikerinnen aus #BadenWuerttemberg hetzen, ich würde damit per #Fediverse „Verschwörungserzählungen“ verbreiten. 🤣

new workout.

guys, do you know that the 5th angle is?

it's a saying.
when you try to hide yourself in a dark corner of a hypothetical room but all four corners are already occupied by other hiders.
you are too late.
you know you're failed to hide but keep looking for the 5th one convincing yourself that you can.

but...
nowhere to hide.
only the fight is left.

The UK Online Safety Act does nothing to challenge the dominance of Big Tech.

Government needs to use competition powers so we can choose moderation engines and switch social media provider without losing our networks.

Tomorrow, Day 3, 14:00, I will spontaneously be hosting a session in the @cbase Fediverse Assembly on “Lessons from a Public University: Bringing Institutions into the Fediverse” and sharing my experiences from the step-by-step approach at the University of Innsbruck, where we have a Mastodon Instance on our servers, SSO-connected, based on a general strategic approach towards open plattforms.
Happy to see a lot of Fediverse fighters!

Lighthouse Lore 🌫️
Monday morning.
No one knows the date.
Christmas is behind us,
New Year is waving from the fog.
Between leftovers and resolutions,
the Lighthouse stays lit ,
quietly self-hosted, steadily tended,
for the wanderers and the weary.
Take it slow.
The year will find you soon enough.
For now, breathe.
You’re still on the map.
🕯️🌊

it’s hard to make time for all my #fediverse accounts

@BeAware I think we can use the Fediverse for two-way media. We can contribute to the internet, not just from the media providers themselves. Two-way. You can come back here to the Fediverse if you feel like creating content without the need for elites claiming the data is theirs or their products! 😄☀️

01:33—Good night #Fediverse! 😴💤

Raw numbers are perhaps not enough to get across just how bad the centralisation of the Fediverse by mastodon.social is. I've done a chart to show this visually, hopefully this will make the situation clearer?

Given the circumstances, getting people to join other servers except mastodon.social would greatly help decentralise the Fediverse. It's no longer big vs medium vs small, it's more like supergiant deathstar mastodon.social vs everyone else 😞

#Mastodon #Fediverse #MastodonSocial

Graph showing twelve different Mastodon servers with their percentage of the active Fediverse on the Y axis. Mastodon.social has almost 30% of active Fediverse users while all other servers have about 1% or less. Caption under chart says "Largest Mastodon servers vs % of active Fediverse, 21st November 2025, data from FediDB.com" Another caption next to the bar for mastodon.social says "Percentage occupied by mastodon.social is growing! It used to be less than 15%! JoinMastodon.org and official Mastodon apps are STILL promoting mastodon.social!"

@FediGarden #mastodonSocial seems to have become the #twitter of the #fediverse. If the percentage of #badApples is constant, they obviously have the most. It is obviously against the ideals that created the whole thing. Size breeds power, and power corrupts.
#SupportYourLocalInstance! Local with respect to interests, not necessarily geography.

If you're interested in the Fediverse and self-hosting, you might find Fediwall interesting. It's a "media wall" for showing the latest Mastodon posts with particular tags from particular servers, and works best on laptops, monitors or tablets:

Just a friendly reminder to everyone on the #fediverse that your phone is basically a tiny computer.

Consider turning it off more often, like me. I typically switch mine off for about 1 hour, once to twice a month.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@indivisibleteam/115794805733624670

Any developers in the #fediverse up to creating very artist-friendly FOSS web software, which readily and securely integrates into many common web frameworks and can stand alone, for musicians to sell digital music online directly to individual customers?

Scalable disintermediation of the music market would be a profound feat of #resistance.

Chef de Paw by Lisa S. Baker. With a look of stoic determination and culinary pride, this dapper bulldog dons a classic white chef’s hat and striped bowtie, ready to conquer the kitchen. Dressed in a vintage black-and-cream apron, he clutches his trusted utensils - whisk and spatula at the ready - as he poses against a bold striped backdrop. The charming contrast of his serious expression and playful attire brings this whimsical portrait to life, blending elegance with humor in the most delightful way.

@zuck

oh fuck. that's right. bc #Threads is technically on the #Fediverse, we can talk to you here😁

you're a fascist appeasing piece of shit

you also promote threads coming to #Mastodon while minimizing mastodon going to threads

which makes sense when you are an oligarchic, sociopathic fuckboy who knows he peaked at 20

you might want to think about your legacy soon, because it's heading down the shitter very quickly, you fascist cocksucker

@peertube

i'm so happy to find you have an acct on #mastodon (but of course you do😊)

you wouldn't know this, but i (annoyingly) keep encouraging "liberal" media to start an instance on #PeerTube before the fascists kick them off #youtube. i really want "independent" media to be truly independent

i've also been looking for an instance where i can post my vids of birds, & sometimes a political rant😉, but i'm not sure how to find the right one

i only learned of you when i came to the #fediverse

And now we have a #Fediwall @ the #Fediverse Assembly right now.

See your own post there... 😅

I've been experimenting with lightweight activitypub tools like gotosocial and snac2.

So far snac2 works, but seems incompatible with basically every frontend I've tried.

gotosocial is more compatible, but crashes randomly and won't stay online for 24hrs at a time.

What am I doing wrong here?

Anyone have any tips?

#ActivityPub #Fediverse #gotosocial #snac2

Originally created as a temporary setup to experiment with #snac, I later decided to keep it online. For about a year now, it’s been my most 'private', less technical corner. And I couldn’t be happier: it runs in a #FreeBSD jail, uses almost zero resources, and is always ready to serve me.

Happy birthday, FediHome!

Do I regret turning down VC money? Not for a second.

VC funding is fast growth paid for by betraying your day-one users and abandoning your principles. That's always the trade.

I'll choose failure over selling out every time.

This community actually matters to me, and I mean that.

If I didn't care about you or the fediverse, I would have sold out long ago.

You deserve better. ❤️

#Loops #Pixelfed #Fediverse

Loops could be the most active fediverse platform by the end of 2026.

TikTok is the world's most popular social app, facing a forced sale to Oracle while US politics poison its algorithm. Millions will be looking for alternatives.

We have few real short-video platforms in the fediverse. This is our moment.

▶️ Loops will become the third most-used Fediverse software by MAU by end of 2026, trailing only Mastodon and Pixelfed. The short-form video platform will cross 100,000 monthly active users, with Loops-originated content generating significant federated engagement from non-Loops clients — proving that ActivityPub can power video-centric social experiences.

I'd focus to support small and efficient alternative servers like #snac2 that would really benefit the #fediverse diversity and distribution

What I do love about #Mastodon and the greater #Fediverse, by the way, are the personalities. There *is* a culture here.

Other microblogging sites have a sort of algorithmic supremacy going on where you trade personality for a ticket to the internet celebrity lottery. No individualism. You pick your niche from a set deck and you play the FYP slots.

Meanwhile, everyday I run into someone who's like "hey I'm star-cake. I'm a queer carrot farmer. I collect Soviet-era camera lenses." Amazing.

A new week has begun, and 2025 is getting closer to its end. The question we should all ask ourselves is this: what have we done, and what can we do, to make the Fediverse a better place?

The Fediverse is for everyone. The Fediverse belongs to everyone. We should not wait for someone else to do something. We can start ourselves.

- Follow people who post content that interests you. You do not always have to agree. Constructive disagreement helps us grow.

- Always remain respectful and civil. This is what can make the difference between the Fediverse and social platforms that profit from anger. Let us make it a place we want to go, not a place we feel forced to go just to prove someone wrong.

- Make it a better place for yourself. Our timelines are exactly what we choose them to be. This takes a bit more effort, but the result will be far more satisfying.

- Help administrators identify problems. Pointless criticism is useless. Doing your part, on the other hand, is priceless.

- Boost what you believe is worth boosting. That is how things spread. If quote posts are available, explain why you shared something. You can also share content you disagree with, if you think it may be interesting for the people who follow you.

- Do not approach people coming from other platforms with closure or arrogance. It takes time to understand and adapt. Acting like schoolteachers helps no one.

- The Fediverse belongs to everyone, therefore it belongs to no one. If you run your own personal instance, that is your kingdom, but you could be defederated by everyone and end up alone. If that is your goal, fine. Otherwise, remember that federation is, at the same time, an honor, a responsibility, and a privilege.

- Have fun. Grow. Live. The Fediverse is an extension of your life.

If you have questions, ask. You will find many people who will be more than happy to answer.

And to you, who are reading this, thank you for being here.

@loops Can i block this "service" at all?

The #Fediverse is the #service without any #algorithms you have to struggle with!

Dear Fedi friends,

I'm really proud to share with you a video I made: "Introducing the Fediverse: a New Era of Social Media" https://news.elenarossini.com/fediverse-video/

In this 4-minute video I explain what the #fediverse is to people not familiar with it, mentioning some of its great features and benefits (interoperability, no ads, no surveillance...) and I set it in contrast to the world of Big Tech social platforms. I argue that, with the rise of Big Tech oligarchs and the current political climate, there has never been a better time to join the fediverse.

I hope you will enjoy this video and that you will find it useful (maybe as a tool to introduce your friends, family, colleagues, school administrators, local government officials to it).

The fediverse has truly changed my life, making me a better, more empowered digital citizen. I am endlessly grateful for it, so this is my contribution to the cause ❤️

I am also incredibly thankful for the work of @samaaberg and @patel.riyen who helped me bring my vision to life with their amazing cinematography skills and their assistance throughout the process, providing brilliant feedback to the script / edits from the POV of fedi newbies.

And I was also moved by the generous help of people of the Fediverse who volunteered to translate the script into many foreign languages: @jan @fritjof @erikkemp @sknob @severin @clabru @tarcisiosurdi @hongminhee @danielcasanueva @ainali @nacly

Lastly, I'm thankful for the opportunity I had to premiere the video last week at #FediForum - thank you @j12t and @anca

The video is up on my self-hosted PeerTube instance (thank you @yunohost) and for now it is unlisted as I have no idea how my VPS will hold up. I also included an alternate location in the blog post.

I hope you'll enjoy it! It's been a real labor of love (a month of full time work on it)... I see it as my love letter to the fediverse 💌

#TheFutureIsFederated

Just a little bit frustrating to read people saying "the Fediverse should have starter packs" when I've spent the last four+ years hand-curating recommended accounts to follow on @FediFollows and https://fedi.directory

I'm not the only person doing this kind of initiative, the Trunk directory (https://communitywiki.org/trunk) was the first, and the Fediverse.info directory by @dansup (https://fediverse.info/explore/people) is an automated way for people to add themselves to suggested lists.

We already have these things on the Fedi, people just need to ask around and discover them, and let their friends know about them.
