Fed up with ads, poor moderation, and billionaire-owned social media? Same here!

Welcome to the Fediverse - where ads don’t exist, billionaires don’t rule, and you’re in control.

  • You own your content
  • Communities actually care
  • Nobody’s trying to mine your data for cash

P.S. Spez sucks

  • John Oliver promoted alternatives to big tech in last night's episode, including Mastodon and Pixelfed

  • Flipboard is making a new app for the fediverse

    Jump

  • It’s a term for insiders. My mother will never talk about “the fediverse.”

    The “Open Social Web” is a much better term. It tells you everything you need to know.

  • This is exactly what we need to get the masses off corporate social media sites.

    An app that shows content from across social services has more appeal than being on just bluesky or insta.

  • Wrapstodon - a new mastodon year end review is here

    Jump

  • It’s only in the nightly builds, so unless you’re on mastodon.social or a server with the latest build you won’t see it yet.

    As for what exactly shows when it’s live, someone posted it was in their notifications.

  • Fundamental problems with privately owned social media platforms

    Jump

  • Very good points! Ultimately, we’ve got to rid ourselves of corporate social media.

    BTW, if you haven’t seen the EFF article on the Fediverse it makes similar arguments.

    Lastly, it’s incumbent on all of us to evangelize the fediverse whenever and wherever we can. Most people aren’t aware of the open social web and its myriad benefits.

  • Once it’s implemented in Mastodon, it should make it easier to request the same feature from the Lemmy devs.

  • Journalists flock to Bluesky as X becomes increasingly 'toxic'

    Jump

  • Using the term “Open Social Web” instead of fediverse or mastodon seems to help a lot. TechCrunch and other news orgs use the term more nowadays and Meta mentions it as well as the about us on Bluesky.

  • Journalists flock to Bluesky as X becomes increasingly 'toxic'

    Jump

  • This is the most common reply to any mention of onboarding newcomers, but it’s not helpful. It’d be much more productive to hear specific criticisms so we can address them.

    • Is clicking the big “Join” (the default server) on joinmastodon.org really that big of a hurdle?
    • Is a firehouse home feed required to engage users from the start?

  • Yeah, that’s on me.

    Normally I’d post the image and copy over the post body, however, this account is too new to upload images, so I’ve been linking directly to mastodon.

  • The rebellion will be federated

    Jump

  • Absolutely agree. Saying we don’t have the user base or growth of commercial sites is a straw man argument. That’s not the goal. Building solid communities of real people is.

  • The rebellion will be federated

    Jump

  • This is the way. We can all do our part to build and evangelize the fediverse.

    And don’t say things like it’s too complicated or nobody will listen to us. That’s objectively not true.

    There are 20 million fediverse users. Stay positive and keep moving forward!

  • Lemmy is a link aggregator as opposed to a microblogging service.

    Rest assured we will be creating content on Lemmy vs Reddit.

  • Thanks for the feedback on categories.

    As for discoverability, posting frequently to your local community can help you reach a wider audience. Additionally, using relevant hashtags can significantly boost your content's visibility, as many people use them to find new content.

  • What's Mastodon precious?

    Jump

  • Seconded, some specific examples would be helpful.

  • That’s the plan!

    We need to go out and engage users and let them know they have choices.
