@j12t@social.coop“the open source social web (aka the fediverse)”.
Hmm, not sure what to think about that description. I see the appeal but do we want to stretch “open source” all the way to include closed implementations of open protocols?
From a headline in #techcrunch about #flipboard.
@digitalnaiv@mastodon.socialFederating Flipboard Magazines - #Flipboard began to make 1.000 Magazines available to everyone in the #Fediverse, representing another important step in our journey to fully federate Flipboard. When a Flipboard #Magazine

@adam@windbag.orgI really appreciate that Flipboard's ActivityPub implementation turns on full text search by default. It's the right choice for discoverability and user experience.
Now if only Mastodon would do something more to prompt users to consider enabling full text search for their accounts.

@beaware@social.beaware.liveAccording to Flipboard Co-founder and CEO, Mike McCue, Flipboard will allow users to follow ActivityPub accounts in the coming weeks!
Exciting news considering that Flipboard has over 150m members!😁

@beaware@social.beaware.liveI like that bigger platforms like Flipboard are starting to federate. Though, with a supposed 150m accounts, its kinda strange that I don't get much boosted to my timeline....
I guess there isn't much on Flipboard that's within my interests...🤔 🤷♂️

@beaware@social.beaware.liveI feel very seen today. If that makes sense.😂Getting some interaction feels nice. Thank you nice Fedi people. Lots of talented devs and leaders in this space like Flipboard, Mastodon, Threads, and the ActivityPub devs are doing lots of work to start making these platforms interconnected in a way while hopefully letting people feel safe while doing so. (work is being done so that things work more in a way that you would expect them to, blocks and otherwise)
It's very admirable and the future of social media is VERY exciting!

@beaware@social.beaware.liveCan folks on Flipboard.com follow Fedi folks? It's something I always wondered, since they seem to be the biggest platform that has enabled ActivityPub in good faith, unlike Meta😬

@beaware@social.beaware.liveFinally sitting down to watch/listen to the podcast with Mike Mccue, CEO of Flipboard, and Ryan Barrett, creator of BridgyFed.
This should be good!😁
So cool to see the leaders in this space share info and help each other make this the best social media project it could be! 1/?

@beaware@social.beaware.liveIt's such an exciting time for social media.
Fediverse is going near-mainstream due to wide adoption.
Bluesky now "unofficially" federates with the fantastic work of Ryan Barrett's BridgyFed!
Threads has one-way federation and claims to plan to fully federate soon enough.
Flipboard is actively working on Federation, some parts already working!
Nostr is federated using the Momostr Pink bridge which also bridges Threads.
The future of interconnected social media is now. Exciting times, we are in!😁

@beaware@social.beaware.liveThis video is SO good! Anyone who is interested in Fediverse nuances and the issues we've been debating for months now, should definitely watch this video! 4/?

@beaware@social.beaware.liveSo, at the 29 minute mark, Ryan talks about how Mastodon's search discoverability feature is currently opt-in and there's only 5-6% of people currently opting-in. That's a wild statistic!😬 3/?

@beaware@social.beaware.liveRyan made a pretty good point around the 16 minute mark about how Threads wasn't told to make their federation "opt-in" from the Fediverse side and that people feel differently about bridges for some reason.
Even though, they're the same thing, in most ways. 2/?

@beaware@social.beaware.liveQuote Posts, being able to limit them, and possibly being able to limit replies, is coming to Fediverse soon enough.
I am a bit worried about these features for all the same reasons that others are, as well.
However, I have another worry that I haven't seen talked about yet, because it's a limited experience so far.
Threads added the ability to limit Quote Posts yesterday and I've already played around with it to see how it works.
I'm worried about Mastodon using the same kind of way to limit Quote Posts as Threads.
Currently, the way Threads does Quote Posts, is that whenever you post a link to a post, it automatically turns into a quote post. Therefore, when you limit them, nobody can even link your post on the site at all.
That's currently how Threads Quote Post limiting works and that really sucks if that severe limitation would come to the wider Fediverse.
My worries might be unfounded. This might be not at all how Mastodon will be doing it and everything will be fine.
Any opinions on the matter?🤔

@beaware@social.beaware.liveSunday MIGHT be blog day...🤔
I haven't done that in A LONG TIME. However, there's been LOTS happening and I'm very excited for the future of the platform, right now.
I am obviously still a little cynical when it comes to corporations and their intentions with Fedi, though.
If I have time, (and if I feel good enough. Anxiety is a bitch) I'll do a writing session and detail my thoughts, reasonings, and experiences with this social movement so far.
I'll also be detailing the nuances of each cross-platform integration I have firsthand experience with.
Let me know if this is a type of blog post would be interesting or intriguing to you and it might help me with motivation to pull it off. I don't want to "yell into the void". Especially with something I have so much passion for, and will take some time to complete.
