What i mean is that I want to have a big account where i repost what i want to from my others account and THAT account would be accessible from thread and bluesky but... I don't know what to use 🤔 🤔
This noob is testing the interconnectivity of the #Fediverse:
The word out there on the Fediverse make it seem as if all the different tools (Mastdn/P-tube/Lemmy/etc.) can interact with one another. But this is not the case, as some work both ways, whilst others only one way, or at all.
a) Using #Bridgyfed, to test between AT ( #BlueSky ) & AP protocols (Mastodon, etc.)
b) Meta's #Threads for testing with Mastodon.
c) Starting to test #Nostr with its peer-to-peer network.
TL;DR:
The #Fediverse holds a lot of promise, but it the ideal level of interconnectivity isn't there yet. (And yes, not all of them need to be able to connect and interact on the same level of details as with the others, as they are different tools.)
@PlasticParagraph How great to read this post here by accident! I've only been in contact with Fediverse for 3 weeks and I'm obsessed LOL I'm a little lost, but I'm researching, reading and favorite a lot. I'm Brazilian, I live in Rio de Janeiro, we can exchange ideas, perhaps, without disturbing you, you can help me understand something! The tutorial videos on YouTube are too weak! I am at your disposal. Who knows, maybe we also have similar tastes? I hope to contact you! ✌ (I haave to improve my English, need to use tradutor, but, its ok. take a look in my desktop.!
Die Erklärungen sind ja alle schön und gut. Aber die ganzen verschiedenen Einstellungen und Vorgehensweisen sind dann doch verwirrend. Dazu noch die verschiedenen Apps mit unterschiedlichem Vorgehen!
man man man ist das Anstrengend mit jemanden aus dem "Mastodon-Netzerk" zu diskutieren, der davon überzeugt ist, das mastodon die besseren Features hat als alle anderen Fediverse Dienste.
Ich frage mich nur, was soll das sein?
Die Software, die die BenutzerInnen am meisten einschränkt, soll also die bessere sein?
@2ndStar Mastodon ist schon OK, es ist nur nicht der Stein der Weisen.
Für 80% aller möglichen Szenarien, reicht es ja auch aus und man kann sich auch mit ein paar zusätzlichen Affengriffen, weiterhelfen @BrauchC
I'm writing you because I came across your blog site and thought you may be able to leverage the Fediverse in conjunction with your WordPress site's publishing horsepower.
As a #FOSS advocate with great enthusiasm for mass #Fediverse adoption, I'd like to suggest a couple of things for you to consider, and the following treatment can also benefit others who also have bridged over to the Fediverse that already have a WordPress installation, or have been looking to deploy one.
First, that you think about establishing a Fediverse account other than that of a stock Mastodon instance. Sure, keep your @Teri_Kanefield@mastodon.social account, just create another account for yourself on a platform that will afford you more options that can facilitate your creative freedom (let's not dissect that word, lolz) to publish posts that are in excess of a paltry 500 characters, along with things like Markup capabilities, Etc. Just a thought. ...
This leads into the next suggestion, ...
Second, why not make that account your existing WordPress blog, where you already have a permanent, branded presence and readership? Let's supercharge your WordPress site by making it a full and complete publishing platform completely integrated with the Fediverse.
There's a couple of methodologies, but generally speaking, once you install the ActivityPub plugin any future blog posts are on the Fediverse as well as any other distribution channels you may already have (say, by virtue of having installed the JetPack Social plugin that propagates into the deprecated silo networks).
One method I can recommend is to follow this basic procedure to popularize your blog posts and gain followers - just like you probably have been with the mastodon.social account you already have:
) If you've already created a new account on a more feature complete platform that's better suited for long form posting, inline images, Etc., like #Friendica, #Socialhome, any #Misskey or #Pleroma family fork platform, #Hubzilla, or #Mitra (They all have excellent Markdown support too); simply follow your #WordPress user account @<username>@terikanefield.com. If not, then simply follow your WordPress Fediverse user account from your existing masto account - which you should do anyway since I gather you have some respectable measure of followers.
2.) Everytime you publish a new news article / blog post on your WordPress site, you'll see it in your stream on your fediverse accounts.
3.) Boost each article from those accounts, your followers will see what you boost in their streams.
4.) encourage them to boost as well and/or comment - you'll see those comments in the reply section of each article on your WordPress site - Awesome!
5.) Now that you have followers of your WordPress user's Fediverse account you should be able to garner more direct interaction on your WordPress site, instead of having to post links to those posts from your mastodon.social account.
) From your @<username>@terikanefield.com account at your WordPress site, you can now directly interact with your followers, even those who post replies/comments to your articles, whether or not they are a follower of yours.
I'm taking the time to write because I see that you have a relatively decent circulation and engagement between readers and your blog articles, and the more people that see you engaging with others in the Fediverse directly from your WordPress site, the more people are encouraged to Join the Fediverse.
I am, as stated in my profile and also leading in to this, a FOSS and Privacy Advocate.
So here's a couple of links, one to the plugin itself - it's easy to install and deploy. Another older one that's still relevant that shows you how to do the install, and I think that's about it. We'll see ;)
HowTo with Video - Really simple, easy install, right from your WordPress admin panel
JetPac Social - I'm definitely not a fan of this kind of engagement (with the privacy mining, deprecated, monolithic silo networks), but you do you - it can afford you with even greater reach through syndication, and if you write about the Fediverse, well, ... So much the better!
You should also consider following the magnanimous @pfefferle - one of the primary authors of the #ActivityPub_Plugin.
Yesterday I did a quick test drive of a #Hubzilla instance. It was a somewhat mindtwisting experience for me as a Mastodon user, in a similar way to how Mastodon/Twitter was mind-twisting for me coming from a Livejournal/Dreamwidth/Facebook background.
But it has some really nice features and might be exactly the thing that some folks are looking for.
I'd been under the impression that Hubzilla runs on ActivityPub, but evidently that isn't quite correct. As I understand it, Hubzilla runs on a protocol called Zot.
If you want to federate with accounts on ActivityPub, you need to install the ActivityPub app on your Hubzilla account.
This was fairly straightforward to do, but realizing that this was necessary was not straightforward.
When I say that the organization of comments on Hubzilla feels "bloggy", what I mean is that it's structured for all comments to be replies to the top-level post.
There doesn't seem to be an interface for replying to other people's comments, so I think there's no capacity for nested threading. I was able to use Mastodon to reply to comments, but on Hubzilla these just showed up as more recent comments.
Mike Macgirvin, the long-time developer that brought us #Friendica, #Hubzilla, #Streams, and the #Zot protocol, is bringing his most powerful concept to the rest of the #Fediverse: Nomadic Identity.

No reason, not all are automatic registration so you may have to fill a form in to request to register. Policies etc are normally under About I think - I've been on a long time so have not visited the policy pages in years.
