#introductions Hi Fediverse! I’m a #Texas transplant living in Stavanger, #Norway for the past 10 years. You’ll find me sharing my favorite #Gardening adventures, #vegan recipes (yes, I jumped in with those first!), and life abroad. Keeping up with everything going on back in the States has been challenging—and explaining it to folks here, where I’m often the default #american explainer, is even trickier! So I cast a wide net for input on this- #fediverse let’s see what u got!

“I feel like we're rebooting to the last version of the Internet that I felt uncomplicated joy about.”@Casey, @kevin and @pj on why they set up their Forkiverse fediverse server. https://www.searchengine.show/the-fediverse-experiment/#Fediverse #Federation #ActivityPub #Forkiverse #OpenSocial #OpenSocialWeb #Internet #Technology #Tech
Canadian #Fediverse activists! Listen to and share Senator Paula Simons @Paulatics's excellent CBC interview on the Jan 8, 2026 edition of As it Happens!"Mark Carney is paying me for my Sober Second Thought: So here it is: Why are you giving the imprimatur of your Government to this website?”So many great words said!!Her segment begins at 27:10.https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-2-as-it-happens/clip/16191007-a-minneapolis-protester-dangers-opposing-ice #Fediverse #Mastodon #CBC #Twitter #TwitterMigration #EndMusk #Grok
A Professor at Toronto Metropolitan University:“The Government of Canada could easily decide that it was going to use LinkedIn or Instagram or wherever it posts, and journalists would switch to following them there because they want to access what they’re saying,” he continued. “There was zero audience for Truth Social whenTrump created and started using it, but the audience went to the politician. Carney and his government could take a principled position by leaving X and its horrible spawn, Grok, and his audience of journalists and politicos would go with them.”“Apparently, our political leaders simply choose not to.”YES!! #Fediverse #SocialWeb #Mastodon As always a huge thank you for the Senator's @Paulatics ongoing activism. It WILL happen. (and by it I mean, government going to the social web... Bluesky is just a temporary blip until it too goes fascist or we get some proper digital sovereignty laws in place.)https://mstdn.ca/@Paulatics/115861469408403689
Hey everyone,Gaza Verified is now open again for verification calls in 2026.The new process for signing up for verification calls uses sign in with Mastodon and should remove the last remaining technical hurdle that was giving some of our friends in Gaza a hard time (adding the verification link to your Mastodon account is not intuitive in the current Mastodon interface). With this new flow, you won’t have to, we do it for you.https://gaza-verified.orgAlso, please remember that Israel, USA, and Germany are continuing their genocide of the Palestinian people with the complicity of the UK and almost the entire rest of the EU.And we can help, if only a little. And even if it’s just a drop in the ocean it’s still a meaningful drop for those it helps:https://gaza-verified.org/donate/💕#GazaVerified #Gaza #Palestine #fediverse #mastodon #israel #USA #Germany #UK #EU #genocide #ethnicCleansing #apartheid #settlerColonialism #mutualAid #fediAid #StopIsrael #FreePalestine
Putting this out as I need #Fediverse help.Please boost far and wide. In the 1980s there used to be this paper catalogue sent out. (yep, this is how we used to buy things if local stores didn't have them!)I want to say quarterly but I'm not sure. It let you order things such as band T-shirts, buttons (badges), patches, posters, and other memorabilia. I *think* it was sent out from California. Does anyone know the name of it? I have been racking my brains trying to remember it. I have fond memories of my sister (who's 10 years older than me) and I poring through it to see what we could get.
If you follow me, you have a sense of humour. If you're reading this, you're a reader. I’ve put this story online, free, gratis and for nothing, it's a twelve minute read. If you like it, maybe you’ll be curious enough to risk 99p for one of my short story collections. Maybe you’ll be smart enough to save some money by buying a compilation. Maybe you’ll be brave enough to buy my novel. Whatever happens, I hope you enjoy ‘Vincent'. http://aarondavid.co.uk/Vincent.html #freeread #shortstory #funny #pleaseboost
