I have so many follow relationships with so many talented people here!
It's so great to see all of you and your interesting projects and creations across such a variety of hobbies and professions.
It's only going to get better with Threads federation under way! Future of Fedi will sure be interesting and I'm glad to be a part of something that could fundamentally change the way "Internet" is done as a whole.
The future awaits. After years of gaining steam, Fedi has arrived.
Activitypub or Atproto ... one item that both Mastodon have in common with Bluesky is amount of "spam" links and accounts boosting those "spammy" accounts
Several "award winning art / photo" profiles I saw had 5 or more links including their pinned post
Win goes to Bluesky since they seem to have better control of that ... for now
…I noticed that they gave shoutouts to #Mastodon & #WordPress (#Tumblr was strangely ignored) as well as credited #Misskey for their quote implementation (even #Firefish received an honorable mention).
I do wonder how many Threads users have activated ActivityPub on their account‽
What are some well-run, mid-sized mastodon instances that are allowing federation with threads? I assume masto social is, but I'd rather avoid the mothership.
In Sora SNS for Mastodon, Misskey, Bluesky, Pleroma. Version V9:
🪄Similar to this post, which shows other posts with the same topic as the currently viewing one
✨Reply summary
✨Redesigned discovery view, with tag carousels for easy discovery
🕘The iOS version is still in-review. MacOS and VisionOS version have been released already!
Not every fediverse user want to connect to Bluesky but for those that do, you can look into using Friendica. The next release will allow you to use your Bluesky account from within Friendica. Interact with Mastodon / Msskey / Pixelfed etc and Bluesky users together on one platform
Talking about fragmented ecosystems : The χbooru imageboard system which has spawned more forks than #misskey and is curiously close to #mastodon in it's technical aspect ( #ruby, etc).
I recently remembered I had an old Misskey (Foundkey) account on a different Instance with a bunch of lame jokes just posted to it. So, since I don't use it I'm deleting it.
However, I am transferring the lame jokes over to this or my Sharkey account, @mdmrn - so if you see either of us just being the worst, know that I already did it before and I haven't changed.
