Hi ! I hope you are well ! Here is our weekly thread ๐Ÿ˜Ž

The fediverse is big ! Let's share our small gold nugget found in the fediverse. :)

It could be :

  • A new peertube channel
  • An interesting mastodon account to follow
  • Your new community ! Yes ! Why not ?
  • An cool gallery of picture from pixelfed
  • A playlist from funkwhale
  • A text that moved you

Let's dig together ! ๐Ÿ˜

Bonjour! Starting up a community and keeping it running (mainly through content generation) for any significant amount of time seems hard to do across the Fediverse, but a couple colleagues have done a smash-up job so far with two recent startups:

I'm helping out a bit, but the initiative and bulk of the project is of their doing.

Btw, I'm also trying to revive !outofcontextcomics@lemmy.world lately, and so far it's been going pretty well. @Hofmaimaier@feddit.org has been a big help, recently. Salute to all these folks!


Btw2, I'm not really sure how to access Peertube, Mastodon, Pixelfed and Funkwhale content from my standard FV-browsing experience. If anybobby knows how to do that, feel free...

As your instance is piefed.social:

Mastodon

if you add tags to a post it should be seen on Mastodon too. No way to directly follow Mastodon tags or users AFAIK yet

Peertube

finding stuff your instance already knows about

  1. go to search (the magnifying glass at the top of web UI)
  2. choose "Communities" button
  3. type in the peertube instance you are interested in
    https://piefed.social/communities?search=makertube&language_id=0

subscribing to new stuff

  1. go to channel page https://makertube.net/c/ctrlaltrees/videos (I know this one is already federated, just as example)
  2. click the small copy button next to @handle or copy the URL
  3. go to search -> "add remote community" at the bottom https://piefed.social/community/add_remote
  4. paste in the box, click search, it should appear below in a few seconds

Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome ๐ŸคŸ๐Ÿ˜
