With just 32 hours left to go...I can't believe it...they are less than $500 away from meeting the $55k goal, which will add in-app live streaming capabilities.
Let's make this happen. 💪🏼

I saw a post a few days ago that said “raising that much in that amount of time will take a miracle.” I don’t trust in miracles, but we did it!
Quite amazing what we can do when asked to support a community cause. With just two days left, and over 10k for the next milestone, we surpassed it quickly, and kept going!
There’s a little time left to help complete that progress bar.
🎉

Hello World!
I just spoke with a #US #Senator office about the #fediverse . They're asking for more information to help spread around #Capital #Hill in small bite sized easy to understand pieces. I'm obviously going to give them @elena beautiful #movie on the #fedi (with some light editing which she's agreed to).
I'll of course show them https://fediverse.info/ and https://fedi.tips/ which are great websites. I figured I'd give them examples of amazing #AP projects such as #mastodon , #pixelfed , #peertube , #bandwagon , and #bonfire ; even things like @admin .
I'd love to know from folks any EASY to understand projects that best encompass the Fediverse and explanations of it.
What are some projects you'd hand to your friends and family that would explain and display to them what we are?
I'll say this isn't going to happen over night. There's lot of questions around regulations, trust & safety, etc. But I feel it's pertinent to at least get the conversation going, especially considering the current state of disdain for big social media and the impending legislation around these things.
I'll finally state if there's anyone in this list that does NOT want to be involved with this, that's totally fine and I understand and I can exclude you from the materials I give to them.

I have a strange #PeerTube question. So I don’t really want to host an entire instance of peertube.
But! I wouldn’t mind acting as a peer for specific videos I approve to help offload streaming costs.
Does such a thing exist?
EDIT: Such a thing used to exist, and it kind of does now.

EDIT2: PeerTube is no longer using WebTorrent for Redundancy - see thread below
PeerTube has RSS feeds with WebTorrent links. You can grab those links and seed whatever content you wish using a WebTorrent client without having to install an entire PeerTube instance.
What does this do? It helps alleviate some of the streaming costs of servers and ensures a smoother experience for everyone on the decentralized web.
Yay for open source platforms!

Fediverse.Games is Waiting for You!
Are you looking for a friendly, inclusive fediverse community? Fediverse.Games has a variety of services, and we're taking on new members on all of them!
The Services
Mastodon
Our OG service is Mastodon! We run glitch-soc, which gives you longer posts, markdown formating, and plenty of other fun stuff!
PeerTube
The second (and fastest growing!) service we offer is PeerTube. Our PeerTube allows import from your YouTube channel and 50GB of free video hosting!
WriteFreely
We've recently added WriteFreely to our services! It isn't a perfect service, but it's the best option of those available and we think it's a great addition, and we hope the long-form games writing community will grow with our contribution to it.
The Rules
We wish to run a friendly, kind and inclusive server, and do not have any tolerance for discrimination or bigotry of any kind, including but not limited to racism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia. It can be hard enough for people to be their true selves offline, let's not make it harder online too.
We also have no tolerance for the promotion or nazi, alt-right and ultra-conservative ideologies.
In the pursuit of accessibility, we ask users to add alt-text to their images where they're apply to for the advantage of those using screen readers to interact with us. However, we also do not tolerate abuse toward users who might forget to do so or aren't used to doing it yet.
Legal Status
All of our infrastructure and user data is held in Australia.
Further Reading
We also have a wiki, where you can read our server charter and what we can expect of each other in more detail:
