This also nicely shows you how resilient the fediverse can be. In my case, if mastodon.social, the largest fediverse server, goes down, I can still interact with 80% of the people I follow and who follow me.

Neat!

Hey #forkiverse people, and everyone else who has joined us recently!

You might be just learning about the thing that makes fediverse special, that it's made up of many communities spread across many servers running different platforms.

Now, I won't bore anyone with how all that works, but here are two cool ways to visualize this.

- https://data.stefanbohacek.com/projects/fediverse lets you see which servers you are connected to (I made this one!)
- https://moderation-explorer.online helps you understand the shared responsibility of fediverse moderators

Hope you'll enjoy!

I ❤️ the fediverse

A few of my contributions:
- Started GNU/Social AP support
- Started Pixelfed
- Inspired gargron to write the "How to implement a basic ActivityPub server"
- Tried to organize the first ActivityPub Conference (https://mastodon.social/@dansup/100286631732546033)
- Started the SocialHub forum (originally socialhub.network)
- Started https://fedidb.org
- Started https://fediverse.info

5 years on, I still feel so lucky to be a part of this.

Long live the #fediverse

The beauty of #ActivityPub

Yes, Loops federates, and admins can enable any remote instance video posts to appear in local follower feeds AND you can even include them in the For You page ✨

Also, shout out to the notable mentions that made waves across the #fediverse in 2025 🚀

#fediverse n00b question: why does the tags/ page on the #forkiverse have less posts than on the mastadon.social instance? Ex:

https://theforkiverse.com/tags/thicktrunkthursday
vs
https://mastodon.social/tags/thicktrunkthursday

Both say "2 posts · 2 participants · 1 post today" but on Forkiverse I only see two posts while on the mastadon.social page I see a bunch of thiccc trunk picccs

Hi! Come be weird with me. 🥰

Welcome to the #fediverse

#forkiverse

Thanks @pj and @Casey for providing the final motivation necessary to start exploring the #fediverse with their latest episode of #searchengine

Please sing out if you have any tips for this burgeoning fedihuman.

Absolutely is this project called
@vernissage is way more stable and ready to use as #SoloPixelfed will ever be. 😉

Here’s a question I ask myself with genuine curiosity and worries about the first impression newbies get of the Fediverse: When people join the pixelfed.social server, they automatically follow @dansup. Am I the only person to find that weird and somehow unprofessional? #pixelfed #fediverse #pixelfedsocial

If @loops supported some kind of crowd-content moderation, with configurable rules, like

Show me all the videos with the #cat tag where at least 3 pepple confirmed is of cats. Then I can configure an account and feed for my kid to spend some screen time. This would be much more advanced moderation/customization than what Instagram and TikTok would be willing to implement.

Is something like that possible?

#Longevity science is doing progress, despite being criminally underfunded. So by 2099 you may be not only brain, but also the rest and well functioning 🫡 Follow @statto for in-depth info, although quite sporadic on #Fediverse... and @elivilongviveco for frequent info in the language #Esperanto.

Also, to help fund longevity research, the simplest thing you can do is to sign the #DublinLongevityDeclaration 👇
