I agree with statement about statistics. But I disagree that if I'm fixing an old linux computer, and someone posts a meme, it's not what I wanted. What I personally want on the Fediverse, is human connection and interaction. So I think that's a wholly valid post. I'd like the answer, but I'm here to build bonds. I've met so many people I've talked with on the Fediverse, because I don't just want the answer. I want REAL conversation.

I agree if you're looking at health of a SERVER, MAU counts. But let's just take Lemmy. If we just look at lemmy.ml MAU doesn't begin to tell the whole picture of "LEMMY" and not "lemmy".

I was just talking with someone that compared it to pamphlet bombings. You have NO CLUE how many see it. It's more about how many SHOW UP. And I'd argue that "showing up" would look completely different even on Lemmy vs Mastodon vs Pixelfed vs anything else. So it seems like an INSANELY complex idea.

I want folks to feel GOOD about the future of the Fediverse. And these posts about "MAU" distract from the real point. I can't do anything about someone posting, I greatly appreciate the work, but I'd like to have a discussion about how we turn this value that has ZERO real world use on the Fediverse, and help pivot to how we can actually help grow our own communities in our own ways. :D

So I guess maybe the real problem is I just don't want to admit that MAU fluctuating might truly indicate the "health". But I love it no matter what. :)

Sorry, I'm an idealist and a romantic for the Fediverse. :D

AWESOME! Please don't hesitate to ping me! I'd love to share it when you're ready. <3 :)

" the amount of time" so is this by the minute? That's really gross imo and makes me want to stay off there even more. Thank you Fedica! :D

This is legally a comment. :-)

Federated calendar app. I use gancio for freestreamers.btfree.org but you can follow either through your Fediverse account or you can have the calendars follow each other.

Decentralized calendar event sharing.

ozoned @piefed.social 6d ago

Shared it. That's a lot of fun! :D Thank you!

This is going to federate via ActivityPub. My understanding if you'll have a centralized repo under someone or some business. But you could have your own account and fork their repo to your federated server. You can work there, push changes and it goes up.

Being AP you can follow changes, get alerts on releases, etc.

"What about forge federation?

Federation is under active development, and is considered experimental. This is because many required features−notably moderation and access control−have not yet been developed.

The Forgejo project reserves the right to make breaking changes to its federation components with no prior warning. Such changes may be “backwards incompatible” and could result in the (sub-)domain used for your Forgejo instance to be “burned”. This means that the domain will no longer be usable for ActivityPub-based federation in the future, no matter whether you set up Forgejo from scratch or choose to use other software that uses ActivityPub.

For more information on implemented features and future federation-related plans, check out the federation roadmap.

If you are interested in working on federation-related code, consider joining our federation-focused Matrix room: #forgejo-federation:matrix.org (web link)"

Correct. YET! Coming SOON! And powered by ActivityPub! It's a super hero!

Digital sovereignty. Codeberg is funding development of forgejo. Forgejo will federate to other instances. So you can have your own repo and someone on another forgejo can interact remotely. So no need for centralized platforms anymore. Power of the Fediverse! :-)

Never heard of or, but love trying new things. I could even stream it.

Comic artist that draws incredible art. Also NSFW sometimes, so heads up. And she streams on Owncast.

I've been playing with Emissary and having exactly the thought about that as GeoCities. No official instance or anything yet, but it seems to allow you to do just that. Has a WYSIWYG builder or HTML and CSS or markdown. Ben Pate, creator of Emissary, created bandwagon.FM with it.

I find this part just jaw dropping. Absolute corruption in plain sight

"The Justice Department dropped its investigation into Polymarket. Donald Trump Jr., the president's son, became an adviser to the company and his venture capital firm, 1789 Capital, invested millions into Polymarket. Trump's regulators approved a deal allowing a separate version of Polymarket to re-enter the U.S. Administration officials invited Coplan to the White House for a roundtable on cryptocurrency."

Awesome! Thank you for sharing. :-)
