Fediverse

via Martin Fowler: NEW POST: It’s now been a year since The Muskover, what does my use of social media look like now, both as a reader and a writer?

via Sarah Perez: With Postmarks, social bookmarking is back – but this time it’s built on the fediverse

via Ethan Marcotte: 🦊 Sometimes a thing happens where you can’t spend any more time on the website you spent fifteen literal years on, and maybe that’s okay.

via Will Bishop: 🚀 Stomp is now available 🚀

via Johannes Ernst: I don’t think too many people in the Fediverse know of the groundbreaking, but quite accessible research Elinor Ostrom did on the Commons, which eventually won her the Nobel Price. Commons = a resource shared by a group and that together manages that resource for the good of all. … Can we do better?

via Mac Power Users podcast: 703: The Portable HomePod Mini Lifestyle: If you are a Mastodon user, you have probably come across the issue where you find a link … but it opens on an instance or a server that maybe you weren’t expecting. If you’re like me and run [an instance] just for yourself, then sometimes those URLs can be a bit messy. Homecoming for Mastodon is a Safari extension that basically just adds a button … it will open a page from another instance in your own.

via Daniel Supernault: You gotta watch this and see how easy Sign-in with Mastodon really is!

via Johannes Ernst:

Got asked whether we are going to do another #FediForum #fediverse unconference.

via Boris Mann:

A really great read on the nuanced issues around federating with large instances that the Woof Group server wrote up.

via Charles Roper: I’ve been messing about with the Lemmy 🔁 Mastodon interop today and it has BLOWN MY MIND. 🤯

via i am root: I enjoyed following the #Phish hashtag during a show tonight. Pro-tip for those with single-user instances, or for any Mastodon admins so inclined – you can use the FediBuzz Relay to bring all posts using a specific hashtag from across the Fediverse into your federated feed:

via Fedi.Tips: If you (or your employer) own an official website, you can verify your account on Mastodon as official. You insert some specific HTML code into your own site, which makes your Mastodon profile’s site link turn green.

via narF 🎲: I’m glad to see the different #ActivityPub apps organizing together to build improvements.
