VIVERSE Joins the Fediverse: Cross-Platform Connection Made Possible (www.news.viverse.com)

Looks like it's so far just surface-level integration with Mastodon friends/DMs. But it's still nice seeing the fediverse embraced and integrated at all by what was once a walled garden.

Bluesky Is Building The Decentralized Social Media Jack Dorsey Wants, Even If He Doesn’t Realize It (www.techdirt.com)

There was a bit of news in the world of decentralized social media over the past few weeks. It kicked off with the announcement that Jack Dorsey had left the board of Bluesky. This was followed by an interview Jack gave to Mike Solana where he explained his thinking on all of this. There was also a flurry of talk claiming (misleadingly) that Jack had endorsed ExTwitter.

Why this community exists? (self.fediverse)
submitted 4 months ago by BrikoX to c/fediverse
1 comments fedilink
 
 

There are 2 popular communities dedicated to Fediverse topic, [email protected] and [email protected], so why create another one?

It's mostly for me, so that I have somewhere to post where instance admins or community moderators personal beliefs doesn't prevent honest discussions.

I have no expectations of this community growing, but people are welcome to post and comment and if someone wants to help it grow, message me.
