Mastodon, we wrote this because we love you and care about you. People have been saying a lot of things, and we need to get the facts right.

Hi! I’m Ryan. I’ve been building social network bridges and related tools for over 12 years, including Bridgy, which connects personal web sites and blogs to centralized social networks…

The original mastodon thread with some conversation on the replies.

Summary written with claude.ai:

The article argues that as social media platforms like Mastodon grow, they will face two major challenges:

• Scale has social effects - As more people join, behaviors change. People act differently if they think they might encounter their boss, mother, neighbors etc. on the platform. This reduces the initial social homogeneity of early adopters.
• Founding filters fall away - Early adopters tend to have similar backgrounds/cultures. But as the platform grows, it includes more diverse users with different norms. This leads to more conflict - the article gives the example of English-speaking vs Russian-speaking communities on LiveJournal having very different cultures and priorities.

The article warns against complacency - assuming problems are solved just because they haven't arisen yet on a small platform. More rigor, curiosity and learning from past mistakes is needed.

It advocates consciously "engineering" online societies, drawing on expertise like social sciences. Users should engage thoughtfully, asking questions rather than just demanding solutions. The goal should be spurring interest in the engineering of social spaces, not just implementing quick fixes.

I've noticed that a lot of people on the #fediverse aren't particularly welcoming to those who don't initially get it or have trouble with it. You'd think that if multiple people say they have trouble picking an instance, it might be a genuine barrier to entry that we need to consider when introducing them to the fediverse. But no, instead of suggesting an instance to get rid of that barrier everyone gives unhelpful advice like "just pick one" or "it's not that hard." We'd have a much easier time getting people on the fediverse if there weren't so many people with this attitude of "the fediverse is simple, and the people who don't get it are lazy and should try harder."

It's #givingtuesday, so we're giving you PeerTube v6 today! PeerTube is the software we develop for creators, media, institutions, educators... to manage their own video platform, as an alternative to YouTube and Twitch. 🦆 VS 😈: Let's take back some ground from the tech giants! Thanks to your donations to our not-for-profit, Framasoft is taking...

Social magazine app Flipboard had already committed to joining the "fediverse" -- the decentralized social web, which includes apps like Mastodon. Now, it’s doubling down on those ambitions with an announcement that it will stop tweeting while also launching a new podcast devoted to exploring the topic of decentralized social media.

[Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada, Nov 20, 2023] – Pixelfed.social, a leading player in the image sharing and social media sphere, is excited to announce a significant update that marks a new era for digital creativity and user experience. Effective immediately, Pixelfed.social has removed all storage limits on user accounts, allowing our community to upload and share their content without constraints.

Framasoft starts talking about the upcoming features for PeerTube, as well as next year's plans. German newspaper Zeit interviews Eugen Rochko. Fediverse safety.

A lot of artists, etc. are reluctant to leave corporate social media like Twitter, due to fears over the Fediverse (usually spread by other people, that think Fediverse = Gab + some cryprobros + maybe Pawoo), or not willing to understand it.

I think I'll try to explain the working of the Fediverse in simple drawings, add a few instances recommended for certain types of creators, and make a page long FAQ section with stuff like about GDPR requests, etc.

One of the extremely useful things about reddit was that content was somewhat organized by URL. Each post was created in a subreddit. So you could do websearch like keyword site:reddit.com/r/subreddit

This is more difficult/impossible on the threadiverse.

I am not sure to what extent it is configurable on either platform, but quickly looking I see URLs like this:

• lemmy: https://lemmyinstance.tld/post/0000000; no community/magazine context is present

• kbin: https://kbininstance.tld/m/magazinename/t/00000/the-title-of-the-post-is-optionally-included

I like the kbin way of doing this because it provides the possibility of searching as with reddit.

Are there any potential solutions to this problem? I haven't even mentioned various other hurdles inherent to the distributed nature of the fediverse content. So feel free to enumerate those.

I'm sure I'm not the only one to want this feature. What is the status of it?

performance issues on the *keys seemingly never stop

Pebble, a startup that took on Twitter and failed, has returned from the dead -- as a Mastodon instance, it seems. The company announced last month that

A lot of musicians are looking for better, more resilient platforms for selling and distributing their work. Faircamp may be a good solution.

My name is Veronica and I don't know how to use kbin. :P

Has anyone written up an explainer for kbin for folks who never really understood Reddit?

Also, can I comment on a PeerTube video from here? I tried it on one of mine and it didn't seem to work.

Anyway, I'm new. Hi!

Somebody who was previously active on the kbin codeberg repo has left that to make a fork of kbin called mbin.

repo: https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin

In the readme it says:

Important: Mbin is focused on what the community wants, pull requests can be merged by any repo member. Discussions take place on Matrix then consensus has to be reached by the community. If approved by the community, no additional reviews are required on the PR. It's built entirely on trust.

As a person who hangs around in repos but isn't a developer that sounds totally insane. Couldn't someone easily slip malicious, or just bad, code in? Like you could just describe one cool feature but make a PR of something totally different. Obviously that could happen to any project at any time but my understanding of "code review" is to at least have some due diligence.

I don't think I would want to use any kind of software with a dev structure like this. Is it a normal way of doing stuff?

Is there something I'm missing that explains how this is not wildly irresponsible?

As for "consensus" every generation must read the classic The Tyranny of Stuctureless. Written about the feminist movement but its wisdom applies to all movements with libertarian (in the positive sense) tendencies. Those who do not are condemned to a life of drama, not liberation.
