I hate calling it all "social media". The problem is corporate platforms with algos they control. Where they abuse us for their profit. This kind of curation should void #Section230 protections the rest of us need.
So I agree but fear a failure to make this distinction, and see a motivation for […]
The problem with political influence campaigns on social media (paid or not) goes away on decentralized networks without ads or algos. They can't do anything to get your attention. You're immune. Unless they tag you but that should be treated like spam.
And for this reason, nobody who wants to […]
unless we do something about it, infinite options thanks to the internet always leads to one gateway service. open protocols alone will not save us. they are required but not sufficient. the interface and search must live in FOSS apps that remain competitive. attention must be democratized. fiat […]
The Three Attention Eras
mass media meant cultural dominance by people who could own a big outlet or pay them for ads.
algo media means the rise of content (and their creators) that appeals to our lizard brain for long enough for the algo to know and then push similar stuff at us and people […]
You know, @periwinkle.social is the StatusNet of the #ATmosphere network.
StatusNet (2008) was the first managed hosting (free & paid) for the #Fediverse network (then called Identiverse).

I mean he's right but can't people see how this will keep people from using fedi? my congressman Casten is probably the most prolific user of fedi in the US government.

Breitbart said "politics is downstream from culture".
Maybe today we should say "civics is downstream from attention". That's the power of Trump and his media CEO sycophants. He says and does crazy shit and they make sure most people are bombarded by coverage of it. They both get paid.
The […]
One's ratio of boosts to posts is a good proxy for their character.

以前から、東アジアにもFediConのようなイベントがあればいいなと言い続けてきました。独自のカンファレンスはまだ難しそうですが、小さな一歩として考えていることがあります。
@COSCUP 2026（台北、8月8日〜9日）がコミュニティトラックの提案を受け付けています。FOSDEMのSocial Web devroomのような感じで、**Social Webトラック** を開けないかなと思っているところです。
まだ構想段階ですが、ActivityPubやフェディバース、ソーシャルウェブ全般に取り組んでいて、発表や共同オーガナイズに興味があるという方がいれば、ぜひ話しかけてください。 […]
東(동)아시아에도 FediCon 같은 行事(행사)가 있으면 좋겠다는 말을 여러 番(번) 해왔는데요. 獨立的(독립적)인 컨퍼런스는 아직 어렵더라도, 작은 첫걸음으로 생각해보고 있는 게 있습니다.
@COSCUP 2026(臺北(타이베이), 8月(월) 8日(일)–9日(일))이 커뮤니티 트랙 提案(제안)을 받고 있어요. FOSDEM의 Social Web devroom 같은 느낌으로, 거기서 **Social Web 트랙** 을 열 수 있지 않을까 하고 構想(구상) 중입니다.
아직 確定(확정)된 건 아무것도 없지만 […]
I've been saying for a while that we need something like FediCon in East Asia. A dedicated conference is still a stretch, but I've been thinking about a smaller step:
@COSCUP 2026 (Taipei, Aug 8–9) is accepting proposals for community tracks. It might be worth trying to open a _Social Web […]

Finally caught back up on triaging issues for #FediReader
I'm now up to 52 open issues
So I should probably get working on those
Thanks to everyone who's submitted TestFlight feedback, mentioned me here, or directly submitted GitHub issues!

dear @guardian steve:
i understood your intent. thanks for the article www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/feb/26/h...
but but but wsocial is _not_ the "promising new contender".
networks have to be somehow decentralised, otherwise they […]
The goal of decentralized social media is not to be another network like the massive ones that already exist, but to replace them all. Really to have them all become part of the universal social network. If you're not afraid of a company somehow becoming the focal point of that enormous thing […]
The idea of a default blocklist for the fedi is not a horrible idea. Harassment (a refusal to police unwanted tagging) and malware are good reasons to not defederate with a server. But "hate speech" is not when it's never forced on you and everybody is allowed to say anything on a blog. And how […]
I'm all for user IDs that don't look like email addresses and that don't change when you switch servers, but AFAIK using a URL doesn't mean that going to that URL will give you their social media account. We need a new convention.

One of the reasons why we are funding Vebinet as an ad-free and free platform is to support the fediverse and guarantee that financing for the platform is stable.
While it's not a call to support Vebinet by donations, I would like to […]
#Flipboard and #Lemmy are the main interaction points for a lot of my use in #FediReader
I do hope to build other adapters too
Like potentially making services like #Pixelfed and #Loops more enjoyable to consume via a #Mastodon account
I'm not entirely sure if these apps will feasibly expand […]
Tomorrow, members of our team will be in Montreal, Canada for FediMTL! 🇨🇦
We're giving a talk on our work and showing off the new app we've built in partnership with Qlub Social!
If you're in the area, we'd love to see you there.

thanks for bridging to the fedi. #SocialWeb
A sleek tablet displayed against a dark gradient background shows a news app in dark mode. On the left side of the screen, a feed features posts from Al Jazeera, including a photo of collapsed buildings with the headline about Pakistan carrying out strikes in Afghanistan, and another post with an image of Donald Trump speaking at a podium about a tariff ruling. On the right side of the app interface, a mostly empty panel reads “Select an Article,” prompting the user to tap a post to read more. The image appears to showcase the app’s split-screen layout and article selection feature, highlighting a clean, modern design built for browsing and deep dives into news stories.
Working on the iPadOS version of #FediReader tonight, coming soon to an iPad near you
