Edit: ok, in my circle, people have problems to understand federation and what’s actually the merits of it in a practical sense. If you only know people that understand it quickly anyways, don’t send it to them
“You can always hear the talk of birds in other nests” is a bit misleading, if technically true. You can’t hear it from every nest, only by flying around, and that’s intentional.
For programmers — even if you’re not planning on working on Fediverse code yourself — I’d suggest actually reading the ActivityPub protocol. This will give you a better idea of what the technology is actually about.
Seems like it adds almost as many confusing things as it takes away. Maybe with some work it might potentially be helpful, but as it stands now I don't think this'll help most people understand the fediverse. IMO
Thanks! I did that also because sometimes these technicalities change (at least the not underlying ones). For example in many graphics you have still Twitter but its now X.
Yes absolutely, but the soon to be user reading this will just go to Mastodon and completely ignore everything else for at least the time they are not told of other platforms. Just leave the platforms out of context. Let them google fediverse and explore
My bad, that’s a bit inconsistent. Actually I think it should be a graphic for mastodon - the talking bird analogy just makes the most sense there. Although it kind of works for the other too …
Not to me it wasn’t, my experience has been better wih lemmy. And it still is. I think you should just leave the opportunity open for them to actually search for the feediverse and not specifically Mastodon.
I updated it, I didn’t include jointhefediverse.net because it seems to be run by only one person and it doesn’t include lemmy :( People sending this image can also send it with a link to some point in the fediverse they like
