There are many sides to this experience. It probably doesn't make much sense for me to ask what exactly you mean, because you'll probably be writing a blog post about it soon.
To me, it seemed at times as if the Forkiverse had a degree of internal connection, perhaps even community, that could also be an approach to solving many problems in the Fediverse.
But it's also something else whether a community already exists or whether there is a connection between people of a purely technical nature who don't really have anything in common in terms of their attitudes, beliefs, and concerns, which is roughly what I could see in the Fediverse.
When the Mastodon team was reorganized, the protagonists came up with a strong vision of a community, but unfortunately reduced it to Mastodon, which meant that a lot of good things were lost and the Fediverse remained unseen as a community.

Okay, I'll definitely do that. If I ever come across a project like that, I'll let you know.
Yes, it's all a huge programming effort. I took a look at the code once. I don't find it that difficult to develop my own code, even though it's been years, but I find it really hard to get my head around existing code.

Oh, then I misunderstood something :) Thanks for clarifying!

@npub1zdf…6u9l Hi :) Do you already know when you'll be installing FediAlgo? Please don't feel pressured if you say next year, I'll be just as cool with that as if you say in 3 months :)

I think things will become a little clearer next month when initial activity and introductory posts are no longer included in the statistics.

Ups. I have tested again. It works now, there is no whote area, but the hearts are in "Mastodon (dark)" and the stars are in "Mastodon Bird UI (dark, stars)"

If I use Mastodon (Dark) it is like:

There are currently videos circulating that may disturb some people. Unfortunately, some of them do not come with a warning or find their way onto your timeline in other ways.
You would probably prefer not to see such videos when scrolling through your timeline again. Or other posts, for that matter.
In the attached video, I show you how to hide these posts from your timeline.
First, you need to define a filter that hides something completely.
Then you can go to the post and apply this filter to it. This hides the post without you having to mute or block the sender.
Think about your mental health.

Are you aware that you need to renew the domain theforkiverse.com today? According to the ICann entry, it would expire today.

Yes? The Fediverse is an active community. The key to an active community is lively interaction. This is different from X and Co, where the only thing that matters is having as many registered users as possible for statistical purposes, and that seems to be your goal as well.
Instead of looking to increase the number of active users, you are interested in the number of registered accounts. You have 9,000 users and 6,000 posts on this instance. That means 3,000 users haven't written anything at all and 6,000 have only written an introductory post. That's pretty much the epitome of an inactive community.
If we assume that each of the active members has written 20 posts, you have 300 active members and 8,700 members who show no participation at all. Just take a look at the daily activity in terms of user numbers and post numbers.
Instead of ramping up registrations, you should try to motivate the inactive people to participate actively—97% of your members are inactive.

„the entry of bluesky into the space has slowed everything down“
You can see for yourself that this argument doesn't work if you look at how long Bluesky and how long the Fediverse have been around.
This is one of the many crude theories that attempt to explain something about the Fediverse with something that exists outside the Fediverse.
It's an easy way to avoid dealing with problems in the Fediverse that could potentially lead to "slowdowns."

I consider this idea of not selecting to be a fundamental mistake.

If Bluesky is overwhelmed by the task of monitoring the ICE's public behavior, perhaps they should withdraw from the business altogether.

It's not about comparison.
It's about the development of social media platforms, and Twitter was part of that history, while Mastodon positioned itself as an alternative at the time. In this respect, it's important to understand that Mastodon's apparent limitations were not limitations at the time, but rather extensions.
Not from a Fediverse context, since the projects before Mastodon already knew more characters, but from the explicit application area of being a Twitter alternative.

I think that if you have this concern, you need to find out what the status of the AppView/Application is (AppView was the old term).
As far as I know, Blacksky has its own Application, we will see what Eurosky brings.
But I'm not concerned about Bluesky, I'm concerned about the friend-or-foe mindset that people are developing in the Fediverse with regard to Bluesky, which contradicts any notion of openness.
That's toxic.
But that's not my playground. You can find Twitter people everywhere, very often in the Fediverse.
I wish you a nice day. :mastodance:

I think the question is populistic, because Bluesky as company is not identical to the software, which in turn is not identical to the At Proto protocol.
I don't think this survey comes from someone who really knows the state of affairs regarding AppView/applications, etc.
Populism, simplifications, misinformation, combined with the urge to defend one's own Fediverse, which is usually just an identity issue for the person, are the first steps toward a toxic platform.
Don't be the person who complains about the neighbor's garden gnomes.

Hi folks, I come from another instance where I got to know Bird UI, and what can I say, I was just completely thrilled. I like having a few more characters than are possible with the normal Mastodon installation, and I also found some other things on this instance interesting.
I'm interested in #socialmedia, #society, #data protection, #media development, #decentralized networks, and #religion, among other things. Born in 1977 and a city dweller. I'm interested in ways we can improve #communication between #people. I don't consider #moderation questions irrelevant. #Civil liberties and #privacy.
My normal language is German, but because of the Finnish focus, I wanted to do the introduction in English (maybe Finnish, but then I would be too dependent on IT and couldn't check what it was doing : )
