When seeking support or sharing feedback about software/website, which platform would you prefer to use? Please share your reasons in the replies (if you wish).

Still looking for responses to this one! Also I should've probably included hashtags, however I can't edit the post because that'll reset votes. I don't remember if hashtags work for replies, but probably worth a try: .

Communal Bonfires; creating space for group-scale discourse on top of @matrix

https://blog.erlend.sh/communal-bonfires

Today we're pre-releasing Commune, our first foundational step towards a community platform built specifically for alignment with digital gardens.

Cyber-ecological messaging anyone?!

It's an evolving piece of software serving as the primary bonfire component of the overarching Community OS concept.

Great to see this, and good blog (am still reading).

The marriage of chat + forum on the characteristics you list is an important one.

Once you have 2 separate community channels, say a chat and a forum, you immediately have a problem. The chat is so low-barrier that important info to be kept longer term ends up there and gets lost in the chat flow history. It requires reminding all the time "Please take this to forum".

A good integration can avoid that.

Thinking about Hacker News but sprinkled with

imagine being able to reply and participate to any post from the and with have fediverse comments mingled with native HN activity.

+ and we shift the balance back in the open web.

I could easily do a test with this idea using RSS to autofeed a or forum and then consume the firehose from , just for fun!

The isolated corporate "social" sites we used have competitors here in the but here they all interlock and share communities. A picture to help out our who may not be yet aware of the wider Fediverse of linked platforms and software.

ArtBear,

@73ms @ArtBear @maegul @ArtBear

For the moment, when Lemmy can connect to tens of thousands (MAUs), & Kbin can connect to millions (MAUs). Personally I'm going to go with my Kbin account.

Both platforms need development. Also other forum platforms are taking up ActivityPub so this space on the Fediverse is going to expand & evolve quite a bit.

    Reddit is the only major social app that figured out how to thread the content moderation needle. Moderation is done by unpaid volunteers who also get the blame (this part is key).

    Trust and safety teams then only need to worry about bad communities like coontown/fatpeople hate or escalations.

    @carnage4life tried something different, I'll give them that. The idea of "trust levels" with increasing privileges tied to said levels.

    I believe they got the idea from .

    I don't think it ended up working because the concept of trust levels is rather opaque to the end user, so it's inaccessible for that reason ... But still, props for trying.

    So let me wrap my head around this regarding #ActivityPub...

    • #Tumblr (572M blogs) wants to integrate it
    • #Instagram (2B users) wants to start an app that supports it
    • #Mozilla starts its own #Mastodon instance
    • #Medium started its own Mastodon instance
    • #WordPress now has an official ActivityPub plugin
    • #Flickr (60M users) is considering using the protocol

    🤯

    Am I missing something or does it look like the #Fediverse might actually win the "social media wars" in the end? 🤔

    @yamiyume - has development under way that I am hoping will be available for beta-testing soon, based only on the thread I linked to (I have no insider knowledge).

    “Fostering deliberation would require platforms that encourage long-term and in-depth interaction with arguments and less 'communicative plenty'“

    Fair comment. I do find that conversations on Discourse forums or Loomio groups are more likely to go deep, and lead to covergent outcomes, then even the most constructive chats here. I haven't used Pol.is, but I've read impressive things about its by for vTaiwan.
