We have made huge strides, as #Fediverse, since the times of identi.ca. When identi.ca switched to pumpio (and thus dropped off of the federation), that was a huge blow. This was the biggest server, by far, and it left a gaping hole in the Fediverse.

These days a big server closes, and as sad as it is, people move on, Federation continues.

I now have a #PeerTube account where I will be uploading past music videos from my YT till the end of the month.

On saturday I'll post a premiere of my new video for new #AntigoneChild mini-album. I will be posting old videos, one each day.

You can follow me with a mastodon or any ActivityPub account by adding/searching:

Okay, I just came up with a great hashtag for the fediverse, regarding #FollowFriday, also known as #FF.

🐻 Bear with me, while I explain why it's so good, and why it will stick.

It's been suggested that we need a #fediverse specific ff-hashtag, but nothing interesting ever came out of it.

Today I saw #FFOS (Follow Friday on Saturday), and I was like, what if, instead of forgetting, we could do it every day, and #FFED was born. Follow-Fediverse, and Follow-Friday Every Day, rolled into one.

you know, it doesn't matter if we use #pleroma or #gnusocial or #friendica or #mastodon etc. (are there more we can connect with?). the important thing is that we can communicate with each other. therefore we should rejoice over every additional server that springs into life, no matter what software it runs. whenever the media hypes something that is part of the #fediverse, it's good for all of us. but maybe we need a new name for the whole thing? I feel like "fediverse" doesn't cut it.
