@jonathan i sort of find the process of adding #hashtags part of my normal composition - as I mention a subject, place or thing etc. What if you could have the option.of viewing posts with the hashtags not displayed within the body but collected and displayed at the bottom? - #Friendica does the second part already in its webapp - perhaps this could.be an option for other UIs such as the native #Lemmy UI, the various flavours of #Racoon or the very good #Fedilab app.

@huppakee @SystemOfAnUp This is interesting as you point out one of the reasons that people use Credit Card Payment networks is the consumer protection that comes from credit contract legislation. That has a cost ( It costs the banks to provide the protection) which os recovered through the payment processing charges paid for by the merchant and I guess also offset by interest charges earned from the card user. But what if the card issuer could offer that protection independlty of the payment network and/or recover the cost some other way (either from the merchant or the card user)

@leraje Yeah I mean ideally it would be open source and self hostable - But lets not get into #PuritySpirals - Lets let a thousand flowers bloom.

@DarkSpectrum @LegoBrickOnFire Oh definintely - There is no way that any organisation is going to abandon everything for just ActivityPub right now. Thats what makes sociamedia management tools so critical to the wider adoption of ActivityPub. There are two main channels for content - Those tools and CMSs - More of both that support ActivityPub are required.

@leraje So the interesting thing straight away is that Fedica seems to allow me to register my Friendica server using the 'Mastodon' channel - I didn't have so much luck with Buffer

@DarkSpectrum Ah sorry man. Hope it doesn't look too bad - Its a while since I used Lemmy directly. Dangers of the fediverse eh?

@leraje Thanks - Didn't know about Fedica. I'll have to add it to the list of supported services (I really need to start a new website) - The freeplan acutally looks quite good.

@LegoBrickOnFire Ok you have really tipped my interest - Where are you located and are you a #nonprofit or a #charity ? - Feel free to DM me details if you don't want to post publically. I think your situation is really very typical - I'm interested in learning about your tech stack and how you approach things - This is a project I've discussed with a few partners already.

@LegoBrickOnFire Well if you are using Buffer then keep using it - that's a start - (you can add a Mastodon channel) - Later social (is that later.com?) - Whats the website ? we can easily check. Honestly until (and yes I know I bang on) brands really learn the value of Owned media (which if you are using your own domain - then ActivityPub stuff is really something you own) - then they won't understand the value of Activitypub. - I cringe everytime I see a brand/organisation Fediverse account not using its own domain. If you want them to not screw up - then I recommend a combination of their own server on their own domain and actually making an effort to engage on the topic area (without being spammy)

@LegoBrickOnFire Ok.. so just guessing that the key thing you might want to sell is the #Sociallistening / #engagement features of a solution alongside the value of #ownedmedia that ActivityPub brings. I think that your company is in a common situation. - Do you run a #CRM system?

@meldrik @LegoBrickOnFire Please tell me you don't get the #ai features if you selfhost :wink:

@meldrik @LegoBrickOnFire What #CMS does your company have? What are you currently using for #Sociallistening / #socialmediamanagement ? Do you manage your own website? - Some background on these would help a heap.

Could simply creating a basic #ActivityPub server using #Wordpress or something else on your domain and then using a #crossposting to echo your #Twitter posts work as a starting point?
