This is what the Fediverse Report ( @fediversereport ) looks like from nostr.

Connected via a fediverse-to-nostr bridge.

That which is accessible to screen-readers is also accessible to those who want to "feed" the AI.

Is the world a better place and the people in it better of by having more people on decentralized social networks (rather than centralized ones)?

(Regardless of whether that decentralized social network is the Fediverse, bluesky, nostr, farcaster, lens, etc.)

We on the Fediverse have more in common with those on other decentralized social networks than the centralized ones.

I am talking at bluesky, nostr, farcaster, lens, and others.

I don't think we are enemies.
I think we are fellow-travelers.

We are all reacting to the same problems (with the Internet, the Web, and social-media) in a similar way — we are just choosing different technologies.

In a lot of ways, they are our friends.

There is a saying:

“The perfect is the enemy of the good (enough).”

There are things that you (and others) could do now to make the world a little less worse, and maybe even a little better.

Sure, things won't be ‘perfect’ after doing those things, and you don't get everything you want.

But, you and others are better off.

Isn't that a desirable outcome?

When someone says the word "AI", what do you imagine?

(Explain in reply. Include examples if you can.)

Is the Fediverse for everyone?

reiver,
@reiver@mastodon.social avatar

More than 83% of people feel the Fediverse is for everyone.

And less than 17% don't feel that the Fediverse is for everyone.

(Assuming this poll is representative.)

Does anyone have a good post for generating a post bot? All I keep finding never really seems to make a lot of sense.

@CWSmith

What do you want the bot to do?

reiver,
@reiver@mastodon.social avatar

@CWSmith

Which Fediverse software do you want the bot to post to?

Mastodon?

reiver,
@reiver@mastodon.social avatar

@CWSmith

How familiar are you with using HTTP based APIs?

https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/statuses/#create

Are you familiar with how to do an HTTP POST on a URL, using whatever programming language you are using?

reiver,
@reiver@mastodon.social avatar

@CWSmith

Do you have any programming experience?

reiver,
@reiver@mastodon.social avatar

@CWSmith

If your intent is to program the bot yourself, then —

I would recommend first learning how to program BEFORE you try to create the bot.

...

There is a good book meant to teach programming to those who have no programming experience. It is called:

"Learn Python The Hard Way"

If you read that, and do all the exercises in the book, you should be able to do basic programming.

Let's talk about

Akomma is Fediverse software — like Mastodon, Misskey, Lemmy, PeerTube, Pixelfed, and many others.

is a fork

But —

What is an "akkoma"‽
Where did that name come from‽

Why is the tag-line for Akkoma:
"magically expressive social media"‽

And what is the meaning behind the Akkoma logo‽

@kariboka

Yes.

This is post №3:
