I'm thinking I might stop using the term or when I want to talk about this community of federated social media services.

It's confusing and to be honest sounds way too much like a corporate brand trying to sell something.

I'm thinking I might start using something like "open internet" in general and "open social media" in particular to make the point that fedi isn't some specific thing; it's the default social media for the open internet.

Am I wrong?

@doctormo @smallcircles I have been using “the social Web” to describe this because fediverse has too much metaverse ick sound and people already get the concepts of the Web.

On Nov. 27, 1978, the late Dianne Feinstein, then the 45-year-old president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and two-time failed mayoral candidate called a press conference to announce her retirement.

That afternoon, a supervisor shot Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey White.

Feinstein handled the moment with poise, and went on to serve 9 years as mayor and 3 decades in the U.S. Senate.

@TheConversationUS @histodons @TexasObserver Dianne Feinstein also repeatedly flew a Confederate flag in front of SF City Hall as mayor.

I think I've said this before, and I will say this again: something like TikTok is meant for the Fediverse

@manlycoffee the music licensing tho

Jeremiah,

@manlycoffee A TikTok-like app cannot be built for the fediverse until there is a music licensing model to do so legally.

As an individual, I can buy a song download and sync it to my video, but if I post the video online, I will be sued for illegal distribution by the record label and not having sync rights by the publisher. Every server operator receiving the video would be liable as well.

Ideally, we need a legal framework like what DMCA did for online radio royalties.

NEW: GiveSendGo bills itself as the Christian alternative to GoFundMe — a platform committed to sharing “the Hope of Jesus through crowdfunding.”

But the platform preferred by Trump’s alleged co-conspirators is also a hit with white-supremacists and neo-Nazis. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/christian-crowdfunding-givesendgo-white-power-problem-1234809799/

@RollingStone Payment processor earns 2.9% + 30¢ per donation to a “pro-White” organization that states “White Genocide is happening; Jews are behind it”.

Screenshot of The Aryan Archive Fundraising Campaign on GiveSendGo. Text: Who am I? Hi, I'm Russell James. I'm a long-time Aryan activist, writer, publisher, event organizer, and educator with more than 25 years experience advocating on behalf of our people. In that time, I've written more than 5 million words, in social media posts, books, blog entries, and articles that have been printed in venues as varied as Caste Football and The Occidental Observer; published almost 30 books (by other authors) that are all available for free in both HTML and PDF formats on the Colchester Collection (see below); given speeches and interviews in both mainstream and Aryanist media; organized events, including the Worcester Public Library hearings that established the now commonly used tactic of holding pro-White meetings in public spaces; developed educational curricula; and tirelessly instructed anyone interested in the three most important facts of our time, namely that: White Genocide is happening; Jews are behind it; and we have, not only a right, but an obligation to resist it.

Mr Farouk in Heartstoppers season 2 is a badly written imitation of Roy Kent in Ted Lasso. Sure, Mr Farouk is actually gay, but Roy Kent’s chest hair is the representation in media gays want more.

If you are reading this, you enjoy the openness and decentralisation of Web 3.0.

On , let's fast-forward to the future.

Web 4.0 will blend virtual and real environments while boosting innovation, rich content and industrial applications.

To ensure everyone benefits from it, we will:

  • Shape global standards for open Web 4.0
  • Foster a European Web 4.0 industrial ecosystem
  • Boost access to trusted information
  • Support virtual public services

How? ➡ https://europa.eu/!hJrNc4

@EU_Commission Respectfully, this reads like a comedic parody of government officials not understanding the thing they are regulating.
