I’m doing a training next month on decentralized social media, #fediverse, etc. for a group that isn’t entirely tech-focused. Some tech, some creative, some finance, etc.

What are the best #Mastodon and #ActivityPub explainers or resources you’ve seen on the web?

If you could hand someone a single resource to explain the idea of federation to someone who is not technical and has no prior knowledge, what would it be?

We talk a lot about the federation of Threads but it is incredible what @Flipboard has managed to do. A #fediverse app is literally an Editor’s Choice in the App Store because of the work they are doing.

Did you expect to see a fedi client sitting between Disney+ and Audible two years ago?

I swear these #CSS posts from @belldotbz have become a delight to wake up to in my RSS reader. Great stuff in here on inheritance, maybe the best explainer I’ve seen, but good notes on progressive enhancement and #a11y too! #WebDev https://piccalil.li/blog/css-inheritance/

@ivory what are the odds that we get post scheduling at some point? I feel like I info-dump on here when I check my RSS feeds and I'd love to spread my posts out more.

Seeing creators and artists banned or locked out of the big social networks with no warning or recourse really makes you want to pour effort into the decentralized social web. These are people’s livelihood, just being yanked out from under them. I don’t want to jump into the replies like some jerk and tell them they should have joined #Mastodon but these people deserve an audience that can’t be taken away for no reason with no way to get it back. #ActivityPub #fediverse
