Posting about where the fediverse is and should be going, how we can put people back in the center of their technology. Also wondering where we are taking this planet.

Hey @TechCrunch, re your piece on #activitypub and #threads, my notes from last week’s meeting at #meta answer some of the questions in your article.

The Free Software Foundation Europe set up a website to help move governments from proprietary social media to the #fediverse.

Excellent idea!

About half of the Fediverse addresses typed by FediForum attendees into the session notes are missing the leading "@".

People typed in their very own Fediverse handles. And because they came to FediForum, it's very likely they are very well acquainted with the right syntax.

Pretty strong circumstantial evidence that most people won't be able to distinguish Fediverse handles from e-mail addresses.

I have long believed that they should be the same.

And I thought only the #fediverse can’t keep it’s Like counts and Follower counts and comment threads synchronized across instances.

Earlier today I looked at the “general” Matrix room of the Fediverse Developer Network, and it had just something like 40 people in it. Where did they all go? But all false alarm. Just now, I use the same app to look at the same number, and it’s back at 147, roughly where I thought it was.

Imho none of this is acceptable, never mind technical difficulties.
