Newcomers keep coming here. Welcome everyone!
Don’t forget, a good transition is a soft transition. Habits needs to be planted, and then grow. Here, no company wants you to develop addiction and click on ads, so there is a discovery time you may want to take to build your Fediverse network! Enjoy this time!
Also ask me anything, I am a 7 years old fedi citizen maybe able to help, or find someone who can.

Most Fediverse communities operate on donations, and overall our survey participants are not generating enough money to cover costs.
Very few moderators are receiving any compensation for their labour.
This is your reminder to donate to your admin if you’re able to.
the #pixelfed surge also means a bigger #php footprint in the #fediverse
#Fedify 1.6 is approaching with three major enhancements: RFC 9421 HTTP Message Signatures support with double-knocking for seamless backward compatibility, a new builder pattern for better code organization in large applications, and native #Cloudflare #Workers support for serverless deployments. These additions strengthen Fedify's standards compliance while expanding deployment flexibility across different environments. Stay tuned for the official release! 🚀

Hello #Fediverse! 
I’m here (again) after some time on #Bluesky.
I’ll mainly be over there, but I will poke around here occasionally. 
#Fediverse currently: "Are you a brave dev? Yes, then go for it and hack & slash something together that with luck becomes modestly successful. And enjoy your thing, you lucky bastard" 😅
Fedi must become a heterogeneous interoperable social network where service development is way easier, more inclusive, where services compose / orchestrate / choreograph into solutions that serve people's needs. Add missing social layers full of building blocks, to this technosphere techstack we currently have.

Introducing #BotKit: A #TypeScript framework for creating truly standalone #ActivityPub bots!
Unlike traditional Mastodon bots, BotKit lets you build fully independent #fediverse bots that aren't constrained by platform limits. Create your entire bot in a single TypeScript file using our simple, expressive API.
Currently #Deno-only, with Node.js & Bun support planned. Built on the robust @fedify foundation.

There we go. #Snac2 up and running with the preferred installation process. Added custom styling to boot. One confusion point with styling is that it does NOT affect the root page (greeting.html) only the profile pages. So I thought I had done something wrong, but finally figured it out.

#Mastodon monthly user base has dropped below 1M. Sucks but we didn't need clout chasers who needed an algorithm what to think here anyway. #fediverse #Bluesky has quadrupled since early this year.
Forward-thinking journalists are not letting the “media apocalypse” happen to them. Instead, they’re doing the work that arguably has been most critical all along: building direct connections with their readers. @404mediaco's @jasonkoebler and @ProPublica's @ben join fediverse futurist @mike for a conversation about the discovery and sustainability of quality journalism.
