How does one get started with #pixelfed ? I'd like to experiment with using it to post selected photos. I have never warmed up to Instagram. Also need to look at Ello again (a few years later...)

RT @RonKJeffries@twitter.com@mahemoff@twitter.com @f_fz@twitter.com BlueSky & associated #AT protocol may become something or may not catch fire. AT protocol isn't massively different/better compared with the mature #ActivityPub widely used by #mastodon and several other federated social networks.AT difference: use of crypto? @jack@twitter.com @evanpro@twitter.com🐦🔗: https://twitter.com/RonKJeffries/status/1586765600298131457

Retweeting to get more attention. How different/superior(??) is #AT protocol used by @bluesky@twitter.com compared to the mature #ActivityPub used by #mastodon and many other #Fediverse decentralized social networks.Decentralization has potential to avoid many problems w/ e.g. #Twitter

Legal stuff you need to know/do if you run a #mastocom instance in #USA This advice s not optional. It's not very expensive but provides VERY important legal protection.https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1593819064161665024

@wilbr yes but to be fair, running a personal #mastodon instance is a LOT of work and some expense. It's lovely that self-hosted option is available but it is a niche.

@lauren I hate the term "fake news" popularize by T. But, the media handling of this balloon event redefines "fake news" -- it's breathless, not well informed, invites click bait-y content.Gag me.

@reallyflygreg has created a FABULOUS simple (!) Mastodon guide: https://gpommen.caWhat a cool resource! Tell your Twitter friends. I posted a link there but nobody sees my posts. Oh well.

@stux I understand that. However, a very (!!) cool new feature would be to support user created algorithms. Many peopel follow way to many people which produce way too much content to even skim.I'd love a system where as I read things I can easily indicate how interesting the item is to me. This could be data used by machine learning to assist in helping surface the most relevant TO ME items.Naturally this would be a view independent of the default chronological feed.#personal-feed

@evan interesting perspective. Are you following AI safety. AI ethics e.g. Connor Leahy and others who fear we may have already crossed the Rubicon with AI developments?

I have reduced my use of Twitter and post very little there. Now Musk asserts all tweets will be used as data for his large langiage model.No thanks.#llm #ai #musk

@lauren A friend suggest he might be a VP candidate for the former guy. Not a crazy idea. In fact it's brilliant.

@lauren The chaos from Tucker Carlson exit provides a great cover for whatever CNN is doing. Epic move.

@tiago@social.skewed.del @Mastodon it's too soon to declare a bad outcome. I think we can avoid what you fear. Time will tell.

@evan @tchambers @evan do you see some advantages to the Blue Sky AT protocol? I assume we will soon see decent bridges between #activitypub and #at and therefore (maybe...) #mastodon and #bluesky users can communicate.

@mcg @tek can you expand a bit? I have been very interested in Firewalla but have not ordered yet.

Informative article. Mastodon needs to roll out easy account portability soon. Including user data!https://theintercept.com/2023/06/01/bluesky-owner-twitter-elon-musk/
