In the words of an attendee at the last :

"The Fediverse ... it's actually happening!"

Today's evidence: the president of the United States has entered the Fediverse.

Follow him at @potus.

The demo recordings from last week's are now also on .

Check them out here: https://fediforum.org/2024-03/

If anybody ever asks you: why should anybody care about a decentralized Twitter? Point them to these videos, because there's so much innovation there that goes miles beyond just microblogging, and it's still early days.

Thanks to all the innovators out there, and thanks to the developers who came to FediForum to show off their creations in these demos.

Lots and lots of good stuff there. Whether you attended FediForum or not, happy reading!

(The PeerTube version of the demos is still stuck in a moderation queue. Will add links once available.)

New: Last Week in - ep 61

A busy newsweek in the fediverse:

  • Threads has joined the fediverse in an open beta, allowing people from US, Canada and Japan to opt-in to having their Threads post be visible in the fediverse
  • @fediforum happened this week, with a ton of great demos, a large variety of sessions, and multiple calls and initiatives for more collaboration across the fediverse

FediForum has made it into a bunch of publications this week. Most focus on the demo at FediForum where Meta's @pcottle showed off Threads' integration publicly for the first time, but there's lots of good stuff talking about FediForum itself, too.

A 2-day just ended. It was my first and I really enjoyed the demos and discussions during the unconference.

So many talented people building Fediverse solutions and thinking about the decentralised future of public Internet.

Here’s a speed demo of Nootti from the first day

fediforum,
@fediforum@mastodon.social avatar

@FediPact You would be more than welcome. We want FediForum to be a place where a variety of opinions can be (respectully) aired and discussed and mutually understood. Would make a great session.

The list of proposed topics is now current: https://fediforum.org/2024-03/

We could easily fit a week of full-time sessions with all these subjects that attendees are interested in!

We only have two half-days, so it's going to be intense! And fun!!

See you tomorrow: https://fediforum.org

fediforum, to fediverse
@fediforum@mastodon.social avatar

FediForum registrations this time are mostly from Northern America and Western Europe, as expected, but there are also some from Central and South America, Africa, and some brave souls from various places in Asia and New Zealand: it will be in the middle of the night for them.

The is a global phonomenon for sure, and we are glad to bring together such a geographically diverse group.

tickets are as low as $1.99. Other ticket categories subsidize the low-cost option. This enables people who could not otherwise attend FediForum to come and participate on an equal basis. The various ticket categories pay for the exact same access.

Thank you, everybody, who is voluntarily helping out with funding the almost-free tickets, it makes a big difference!

Tickets in all categories are again available. See you tomorrow morning!
