The Trouble with Forking Mastodon (wedistribute.org)
A lot of people have talked about the possibility of forking Mastodon to get the many improvements their communities need. Making such an effort successful is another discussion entirely.
dansup: "I don't want to run FediDB, Loops, Sup, Pixelfed,…" - Mastodon (mastodon.social)
I don’t want to run FediDB, Loops, Sup, Pixelfed, PubKit myself long term, my goal is to establish a solid foundation for these projects and find the right home to allow them to thrive....
Someone should really revamp email
Email is already nicely federated, but I think it’s time for a change. Services like protonmail claim to offer encryption between users, but you can’t host your own instance. It would be awesome if there was a spec somewhere for a federated email service that defines...

New piefed feature , anyone can subscribe to any post or comment (piefed is a reddit and lemmy alternative) (codeberg.org)

Is there a good Lemmy community for comparing amps, headphones, speakers, complaining about Audacity, etcetera?

JustinH, "We Need To Rewild The Internet"
An absolutely excellent read (and great analogy) by @mariafarrell and @robin Probably the best piece I've read all year.I often struggle to think of a term for "appearing messy from a distance is often, on a human scale, healthy actually." Comparing the social web to an ecosystem is exactly it.
Last Week in Fediverse – ep 66 (fediversereport.com)
The EU pilot for the fediverse comes to an end, but the European Commission will stay on the fediverse; Ghost announces that they will support ActivityPub and build a fediverse news reading client, and Mastodon creates a U.S.-based non-profit.
Poast owner was bragging about poisoning the results Cloutier of Bird.Makeup gets from their server, if you use that service we need an alternative lol. Currently I use my friend's small Nitter.
From looking at their posts they were able to get enough performance to start caching popular tweets, that doesn’t sound that expensive to me. Might get into hosting that soon but putting this out there in the hopes someone else does, I’m happy with my secluded option....

A Mobilizon instance for the Americans among us (birchtree.events)
