you can't joke about sending #pipe #bombs on #twitter, that's why #mastodon will always be my home #mastodev #foss #libre #federation #federatedsocialmedia #piss

Just tried out #Mammoth, the new client for #Mastodon by @JPEGuin, The UI is sleek and easy to navigate, and it made using #federatedsocialmedia a breeze. Highly recommend giving it a try https://write.as/mammoth #MastodonApp #SocialMediaApp

I am not sure how I feel about this idea but.. for a while at least I am wondering whether #Mastodon instances should append a utm_source=Mastodon or utm_source=ActivityFed to all links posted in #toots to show website owners the traffic coming from #FederatedSocialMedia - Maybe it would prompt a few more to engage with their own instances.

Why #Mastodon and the #Fediverse are so important:

“Relying on market-based means of communication made it inevitable that sooner or later, the ruling class would get to determine who can speak and how.”

Quoting their offical Twitter account:

« Bluesky is building a social protocol. We released “ADX” (the X stood for Experiment) in May. Now that the design is starting to solidify, we’re renaming it to the “Authenticated Transport Protocol” — the “AT Protocol.” »

The Verge: "Twitter’s decentralized, open-source offshoot just released its first code"

Project Bluesky calls it the Authenticated Data Experiment (ADX)
