FediForum Number 7 Is Happening And It Makes Me Happy The 7th FediForum is happening right now (yesterday, today, and tomorrow). There are two a year and I love going to them. You can follow along using the hashtag #FediForum. Most of the talks are a bit above my pay-grade, but I always learn something or get to try a new open source/open web technology. I also get to see many of my buddies on the open social web (AT Proto/Bluesky and ActivityPub) over video from across the web and engage with them all in real time. The discussions are top notch and there is even a sense of a hallway chat area in the online software Johannes and Anca (the organizers) use. They also use collaborative note taking, so even though the video/recordings are non-existent, there are great notes collaboratively made and later posted on the FediForum.org site after the event. If you get a chance to make a FediForum, you really should attend. The tickets are affordable and the community is so nice! #activitypub #atProtocol #Community #fediforum #fediverse #openSocialWeb #openSource

on the atmosphere, there is an incentive to implement better functionalities because any user can change service at zero cost; on the fediverse i feel like it's the opposite: there is no real incentive in embracing new software because it's more a risk than anything else and it's not like you can bring your own instance data on another software without costs. #fediverse #atmosphere #activitypub #atprotocol

Bridgy Fed is one of the underappreciated but load-bearing parts of the open social web: you don't need to choose any more whether to create an account in the #ActivityPub-based #Fediverse (like #Mastodon) or the #ATProtocol-based #ATmosphere (like #Bluesky).

What does a Discord replacement look like, and how might the open social web play a part? @laurenshof@indieweb.social looks at what needs to happen — different apps built on the same protocols, active collaboration to make sure it all fits together — and how that's already fundamental to the Atmosphere and fediverse. flip.it/QdL.F… #ActivityPub #Mastodon #ATProtocol #Bluesky #Blacksky #Discord #Technology #Tech
