Think of a publisher, and there's a good chance they'll have a Flipboard account. Now, we're in the process of federating them. Publishers — like just about everyone we know — have a hard time getting their heads around the fediverse and what it means to federate your Flipboard account, so @jejord has written this blogpost. In it, she explains the fediverse, what Flipboard federation looks like, the value of our Magazine feeds, and why we think all this is important. "The fediverse is potentially the One Ecosystem to Rule Them All, and is estimated to grow to 170M users by the end of 2024," writes Jessica.
People on ActivityPub-powered platforms like Mastodon, and Bluesky, which uses the AT Protocol, can now follow each other, see posts, like, reply, and repost them, thanks to the work of @snarfed.org@snarfed.org, creator of Bridgy Fed. @Sarahp interviewed him for Tech Crunch about the future of bridging networks, how to bridge your account from the fediverse to Bluesky, and what to expect when you do.
I don't know whether this is good or bad. I'm sure some "simple" people will be vying for your attention because of it. You can still proceed in the Fediverse as before.

🧵 …erst jetzt einen deutschen Artikel zum obigen Thema bezüglich Fediverse gesehen:
»Das Fediverse wächst – Nach Threads auch Bluesky mit Mastodon verknüpfbar:
Erste Threads-Accounts können für Mastodon geöffnet werden, nun geht das – sogar in beide Richtungen – auch mit Bluesky. Das ermöglicht interessante Szenarien.«
@cliffwade Morning sir! I have a few support calls to go to. Hopefully after that it’ll be a chill day. After work it’ll be relaxing and getting ready for my religious convention this weekend.
I should be able to follow #Cara users from my Mastodon account. You can't convince me to make yet another account in a yet another silo, but I'd love to see and share more art in my home feed. Anyone have a connection to their team? Would love to chat about the #fediverse.
Happy Wednesday to all of you around the #Fediverse today!
Let's all discuss what our day has in store for us or what we've already accomplished.
For me, it's back to work after a week of vacation, so the Nova inbox is FILLED UP with about 600 emails. Much lower than I expected, so I'll be working on that for a bit and then a meeting at 2pm EST which will be good.
Tonight is Fortnite with friends possibly and then just resting and relaxing.
Enable Mastodon Apps
= Du bedienst Dein Blog mit jeder Mastodon-App!
Mit drei Plugins wird Dein Blog zur #Fediverse-Instanz, die sich per App bedienen lässt wie Mastodon! Du kannst posten. Du kannst anderen Accounts folgen, hast eine Timeline und Du kannst liken, teilen und kommentieren. Andere können bei Dir kommentieren.
@stefan@jupiter_rowland Hubzilla definitly also supports sharing via URL. I don't have an instance anymore to test, and forgot the exact syntax, but it is probably similar to Friendica.
Edit: Try "/rpost?body=" and "/rpost?f=&url=" (lifted from an old app I made some years ago).
Reminder: #Fediverse#Developer Network meetup in about 12 hours: Wednesday June 5th at 9:00am pacific.
You are all invited, particularly if you are a #developer new to ActivityPub and the #fediverse, or if you have an existing implementation and are interested in the first round of test results from @feditest!

To be honest, my partner would murder me if she heard me doing that shit on repeat for penny donations. It's not worth it, no matter how much the world wants to see me twerk to catchphrases.
