@wjmaggos @mondoweiss Bluesky has some features that I think that Mastodon ought to adopt;- Moderation Services; distributed third parties which receive moderation reports, and can flag posts with labels that any user can subscribe to. Don't like bsky's moderation; build your own!- subscribable mute-lists so communities can do their own moderation without having to host any services- algorithmic feeds; so users can find content they want to engage with and avoid stuff that causes fights

Have you been laid off? Me too. What if instead of just finding another job we all team up and build something together? At least we could act as accountability partners and help each other through this phase in our careers.It doesn't have to be too formal, we could just take turns talking about our next steps and checking in on progress.If you're interested in this reply with the days and times that you would be available for a regularly repeating "standup" video/voice call.#fedihire

I'm serious about this, I see way too many brilliant people losing their jobs right now, and I've been out of work for like two years and it doesn't look like that's going to change any time soon. I want to keep my skills sharp, and the only way for me to stay motivated is to have people to keep me accountable. We can keep the standups brief and self-focused, and have breakout rooms for people who want to team up to work on projects. Low expectations, I just want to build things again!

And if a voice/video call sounds too intense, maybe we could just do it here in toots or something? I don't want to force it or try to be in control of anything. I just have a lot of free time and it seems like some of y'all might too, and I think we could collaborate. Let's hear ideas!

I'm getting some feedback that voice/video might be a tough for some people, and scheduling will probably be too much of a challenge since we're all over the world. One option is a Signal group chat which a lot of people here probably already have.Another is a Matrix/Element chatroom, which is a kind of decentralized Discord/Slack.I've already set up the later so sign up and connect if you can and let's see if it works. https://matrix.to/#/#fedihire-funemployment-club:matrix.org#fedihire #fedihireFunemploymentClub

Also, better ideas for a name are welcome too. I suck at naming things.

@wjmaggos is Mastodon not an "ActivityPub Reader"?

@wjmaggos RSS doesn't really handle content well either; you can embed some HTML formatting in it, but it's kind of hit or miss as to whether that gets escaped or not. Most people want actual page loads on their websites so they just abbreviate content. Readers may follow the links and embed the full page in an iframe. Is that what you'd want?

@wjmaggos I used to subscribe to Twitter RSS feeds back when that was a thing, but short form content, mixed in with blog and news articles was annoying. It goes the same way with long form content mixed in with short toots and headlines. They are pretty different browsing modes. That said, you there are many ActivityPub clients that support long content. https://phanpy.social is a good one because it embeds opensocial cards in the feed like Facebook and Twitter do, allowing for Quote Boosts

#Automattic, owners of #Wordpress and #Tumblr, have decided not to migrate Tumblr to Wordpress meaning that #Fediverse for Tumblr is only going to happen if they implement it in Tumblr itself. https://www.theverge.com/decoder-podcast-with-nilay-patel/693052/automattic-ceo-matt-mullenweg-wordpress-drama-wp-engine-open-source#:~:text=You%20migrated%20the,Tumblr%20code%20base.#socialMedia #blogging #microblog
