Hello, I'm an open source software engineer in my late 30s living in #Seoul, #Korea, and an avid advocate of #FLOSS and the #fediverse.
I'm the creator of @fedify, an #ActivityPub server framework in #TypeScript, and @hollo, a fediverse microblog for single users.
I'm also very interested in East Asian languages (so-called #CJK) and #Unicode. Feel free to talk to me in #English, #Korean (#한국어), or #Japanese (#日本語), or even in Literary Chinese (#文言文/#漢文)!
For us, 2024 was a year of building on the social web.
✔️ Expanded federation in the U.S., Brazil, Canada, Germany, and the U.K.
✔️ Enabled following accounts from the social web in the Flipboard app.
✔️ Announced @surf, a new browser for the social web.
✔️ Produced new episodes of Dot Social, the fediverse podcast hosted by @mike
Thanks for being on this journey with us! 🚀
Did you do cool stuff in the fediverse this year? Tell us all about it in the comments, where we'll also link to the Dot Social PeerTube account and our Surf signup page.

Hey #Fediverse, do you love #TV? I've launched a new app to track your tv in a single user app with #activitypub support!
After you watch give my github repo a ⭐ ! https://github.com/stefanhayden/tvmarks
There's a lot of new #fediverse stickers! We should create a little directory page with them all!
New ones to include:
Antifacist Fediverse by @tommi
Just announced ones by @raphael
Space themed for Hubzilla, Friendica, Pixelfed etc from @digitalcourage
Hexigon stickers for a ton of fediverse platforms from @nlnet
Friendly @Mastodon official ones
FediverseForFreedem stickers by @andypiper
What am I forgetting?!
Has anyone put together a curated list of #fediverse servers (preferably open source or at least with a public API) that:
- want to be found by the general public (I’m looking for a source of recommendations for a server picker in a client app)
- meet at least some reasonable minimum moderation/reliability standards?
I know #mastodon has joinmastodon.org/servers and pixelfed also has their own curated server list, but is there anything that isn’t software-specific?
📢 Diese Woche haben wir einige spannende Persönlichkeiten, Initiativen und Museen aus der Mastodon-Community auf Flipboard vorgestellt!
Falls du es verpasst hast: Du kannst jetzt allen aus dem Fediverse in der Flipboard-App folgen. Wir freuen uns, wichtige Stimmen aus den Bereichen Wissenschaft, Politik, Journalismus, Klima, Kultur und Geschichte dabei zu haben, darunter @dieKadda, @nicholaspotter, @ueckueck, @pneutig, @digiges, @NatureMC, @lenaschimmel, @DerLeiermann, @pfefferle, @histmus und @nszwangsarbeit.
Lade die App herunter, besuche den Fediverse-Tab unter Entdecken und folge diesen Accounts. Ihre Beiträge findest du im neuen Fediverse-Aktivität-Karussell im „Für dich“-Feed.

You don't have to speak English on here. There are lots of servers listed which use other languages:
https://fedi.garden/fediverse-servers-sorted-by-language
If your language isn't listed, let me know and I can try to look for servers to list that match your language.
2 questions for the #PeerTube experts out there,
1. Is there a way I can migrate my account? I think my server disabled downloading videos but this is also causing issues for the people that follow me in their podcast apps.
2. What good PeerTube instances exist that are not tied to Crypto, AI, any right wing thing?
My channel is at https://spectra.video/c/robertkingett/videos #Fediverse @FediGarden
If you're interested in building your own #ActivityPub server but don't know where to start, I recommend checking out #Fedify's #tutorial Creating your own federated microblog. It provides a comprehensive, step-by-step guide that walks you through building a fully functional federated application. Perfect for developers who want to dive into the #fediverse!
So this is apparently NOT enough for mastodon.social to defederate Threads.
What a complete and utter betrayal.

Man, yesterday was a doozy. We can’t agree with every platform’s decisions, but we can vote with our feet.
Surf wants to free our social connections from being locked up in separate self-serving networks. It’s a no-nonsense browser for the open social web that lets you easily create and surf custom feeds that organize people, videos, articles and podcasts around the things you care about.

So... Has anyone on here actually talked with the people from the #SocialWebFoundation?
I can tell the #Mastodon Organization has, but #Threads is also listed there, while I don't see any other names that aren't some corporate entity. I'm all for groups that want to expand the #Fediverse, even for-profit ones, but it's a red flag when an organization that purports to be for a general movement doesn't have an open line of communication with rank-and-file server-runners and volunteers...
Edit:
I just realized that it was founded by @evan who is actually very active in mainstream Fedi, and one of the maintainers of the actual protocol. While that doesn't elaborate on actual intentions, it is good to know that at least it's someone who is directly involved, and not some random corporation. #EvanProdromou
Hola a todes les que somos mutuals!!
Quería avisar que en breve haré un poco de limpieza en mi lista de gente a la que sigo. Me he dado cuenta de que sigo a muchísima gente con la que apenas interactúo e interactúan conmigo y me gustaría dar espacio a nuevas conexiones o centrarme en las que ya tengo que son más activas y significativas para mí.
Mi idea es que mi feed sea un lugar donde pueda ver e interactuar más fácilmente con gente con la que comparto aficiones (Linux, retro, Barbies, etc...) o que simplemente charlamos a menudo
Si notas que te dejo de seguir y quieres que sigamos conectades, por favor, mándame un DM. Esto es solo para intentar que mi experiencia en Mastodon sea mejor y no por nada específico con nadie.
Pixey.org is a general purpose Pixelfed server operating since 2021, run by the same people as mstdn.social
You can find out more at https://pixey.org or contact the admin @stux
Snac2 is an excellent software solution for accessing the Fediverse. It is lightweight, very easy to compile and install, has minimal dependencies, and the development is progressing along a clear, clean, and logical path - thank you, @grunfink
Since last December, BSD Cafe has had, among its services, a snac instance - https://snac.bsd.cafe - which has been used sparingly, mainly by some for testing purposes. I’ve kept it as a 'testing' option.
In light of the interest it is generating (we now have stable users) and given that development is evolving to allow for both inbound and outbound movement, I have decided to designate it as a stable solution for accessing the Fediverse and to consider it a primary service of the BSD Cafe.
It has always received the utmost attention, I have consistently updated it promptly, and it has always been accessible, but I have also modified all the descriptions to clarify that it is a stable and definitive solution.
For more information, there is always a dedicated page on our wiki: https://wiki.bsd.cafe/snac.bsd.cafe
Stay Tuned!

Wie können sich Serverbetreibende im #Fediverse miteinander vernetzen?
Darum geht es in meinem neuesten Artikel für @gnulinux, in dem ich näher auf die Projekte #FediverseModerationsTreff und #Fedimins eingehe.

Grüße und ein großes Danke für eure Arbeit an dieser Stelle auch an @ebinger, @lukas und @Tealk <3

Because of X and Meta fucking things up once again, people are talking about abandoning social media, because there are no corporate free alternatives. Right.
Bluesky founder and CEO @jay.bsky.team says social media is stagnating because "we're in this trap where users are locked in and developers are locked out." She talked to @mike for the Dot Social podcast about building a healthier internet, how Elon impacted Bluesky's trajectory, innovating on social identity, and how different protocols can come together.

I’m proud to have once again played a small role in pushing  #Mastodon and the #Fediverse forward. Today’s announcement is an important step in bringing greater community ownership and governance to @Mastodon
RE: https://hannahaubry.online/on-community-governance-for-mastodon
Hi everyone,
I just migrated to this instance from elsewhere in space and time, so I'm feeling kind of woozy, but please give me a chance and I will be a great Follow.
Thanks to those who got migrated over with me; hello to new folks on here; can I get a WOOT?.
I hope I mostly did it right.
I will spend the next week looking over new Follows and such. Please no DMs.
