The bridge has been built and the switch has been turned on! Even though there was a lotof struggle and strife, arguments, and knockdown-drag-outs, @snarfed.org@snarfed.org, AKA Ryan Barrett persevered by taking into account everyone's opinions on what a cross-fediverse bridge between the …Since I would love to have Telegram be a first party “citizen” of the Fediverse, the network of open social media network apps and sites that are connected with ActivityPub, I formally opened a suggestion for it to be added somehow if possible via the Telegram user suggestion portal.
I think it would be great if every Telegram user was able to tie into the #fediverse via making @username@t.me handles and using group chats/channels equate different conversation activities vis-a-vis Lemmy, Flipboard and Discourse.
Promises made, promises kept.

Per this post, I’m testing some ways to embed Bluesky posts into my Wordpress powered site here. As I find other ways, I’ll add them here. Simple Blog Card using a shortcode and plugin: [simpleblogcard url="bsky.app/profile/k…"] Bluesky.lol snippet creation using …Sunday, February 18, 2024
The past few days on the Fediverse have served to remind me a few things: The internet is as smart and as ignorant (and everything in between) as the macrocosm known as "human civilization" reflects upon it. Sometimes the victims will become the victimizers in any given situation, usually without …Saturday, January 13, 2024
This is gonna be a radical and controversial statement but in 2024, anything posted to the internet at-large, should be considered a “social post”. In fact, the same could be said for anything posted on the internet in 1994 too. Only the technology and methodology, and yes, nomenclature along with …Saturday, December 23, 2023
If 2010-2020 was the Great Social Media Consolidation, looks like 2022 and beyond are gonna be the Great Innanet Decentralization, and I’m 1oo% present for it. Thanks to our friends #indieweb and #fediverse, you already know how easy it is to plug into some great communities on the interwebs …Wednesday, December 13, 2023
It has started: Mark Zuckerberg announced social network Threads will be starting its activity pub interoperability testing now. 🔗 I have been saying for a very long while now that ActivityPub as a protocol and within it Mastodon as the flagship app need to separate themselves from the fringe in …Sunday, November 19, 2023
Yikes 😬 My second-most used Mastodon instance is @starrwulfe@vivaldi.net… I hope its scheduled downtime and not a DDOS or worse. The good thing about federation is they're not the only game in town. My main instance is @starrwulfe@starrwulfe.xyz (which is actually a Wordpress powered blog as well). …Sunday, November 12, 2023
At some point yesterday, my Wordpress instance (thus the place where the thing you’re reading right now came from) ran out of memory. 🤔 I suspect it’s because I’m asking it to do too much: Basic Blog stuff Webmention/Indieweb/Microformats stuff ActivityPub/Mastodon stuff And …Monday, November 6, 2023
ICYMI: There’s a way for you to crosspost to BlueSky from your own #indieweb enabled website thanks to Joel’s (@joel@otter.garden) additions to Bridgy (created by Ryan (@snarfed.org@snarfed.org). Also, I’m actually doing it right now and have been for about a week or so. So …Monday, October 23, 2023
My whole presence in the #fediverse is predicated on POSSE (and PESO) principles along with federated posting and SNS. I'm a semi-active part of the Indieweb community where this grassroots methodology sprang forth. It's one of "build your own website and have others comment on it -- that's the …
