What is a good microblogging instance I could make an account on if I wanted to try out the non-Mastodon Fediverse? Somewhere others on Mastodon can follow me? It occurs to me that I don’t follow anyone who isn’t using Mastodon. Perhaps I should be a little bit of the change I want to see in the world.
likewise, I think I got to chapter 2 at most. The example of lines in the talk reminded me of the book. I keep meaning to go back but have been distracted with other books.
I can relate. I’ve been quite excited lately by codeforge mirroring; codeberg, tildegit, etc. But all that does is bring us back to the web 1.0 days of websites that were thin veneers for large lists of ftp mirrors. Federation would augment that read-only interface with writes, the ability to contribute back.
I wonder how integrated it will be.. The idea of opening and closing issues, commenting on pull requests, etc from mastodon is really interesting to me.
This is depressing af. I am particularly ashamed of the role of computers in this trend of exploitation.
Reading this ancient blog post has me excited about trying these options (particularly the lesser known, more minimalist ones) in this day and age.

I like friendica personally. But that’s not “an instance”, but another suite. Personally, libranet.de is a good one :)
there’s myriad more, even the tildeverse has a pleroma instance :)
Have you read Gödel, Escher, Bach? (I haven’t yet)
Yes, but it was long ago. I was just mentioning it to someone. Perhaps I should reread it..
Oh, I probably didn’t finish. I remember I attempted it several times. I think I got almost all the way through the last time.

Yamauchi No.10 Family Office site is amazing :)
What about that https://codersblock.com! That is some good dialogue.
“crazier than a coconut” :)
I’m legit so excited about this! I cannot WAIT to log-in to any gitea instance using my tildegit credentials ^_^
This might mean I don’t have to like, uh, install cgit on my server ^_^

100%, it would bring gitea/gogs/etc. on-par with github, and honestly i’d quit using it /at all/ for anything but forks.

oh shit i didn’t even think about that.
of course, other activitypub things aren’t all super-integrated with say, mastodon, which is too bad imo. or maybe i’m just kinda dumb about it….
