This is such an awesome feed by @stephenrobles. It&#39;s a great example of how a creator on Mastodon can pull together their social posts, podcast, newsletter and YouTube channel in a single place for everyone to discover. Can&#39;t do anything like this in the walled gardens! Everything Beardfm https://surf.social/feed/surf%2Fcustom%2F01kncvbv58t90604zpw2m8v6ym #SurfFeeds

There are so many great apps and services in the fediverse. To gain a better understanding of these I spoke with @atomicpoet for the latest episode of DotSocial. As many of you already know, Chris is a long time fediverse enthusiast with a lot of insight into the past, present and future of the social web. We had a really fun discussion. Check it out on our PeerTube instance or wherever you get your podcasts. https://flipboard.video/w/ajzcg7wtH4pDxsvB3oCoVs

Gotta love how the fediverse is actively banning nazis while Elon is actively unbanning them and Substack does nothing.

Huge shoutout to @reckless and @davidpierce who have been relentlessly evangelizing the social web since Elon took over twitter. Now they’re not just evangelizing, they’re shipping. Verge.surf.social is sooo good. Like looking at The Verge through the other end of the telescope.

This open social website by @taylorlorenz is an example of the future of the web: https://poweruser.surf.social Here Taylor is continually curating the people, podcasts and sources she trusts into a single destination that anyone can engage with regardless of whether they&#39;re on Mastodon or Bluesky. More importantly, people who aren&#39;t yet on the social web can easily join her community--not because they want to join the social web but because they want to join Taylor&#39;s co...

@David@setouchi.social @greg@flipboard.social @surf@flipboard.social FWIW every mastodon client has this issue, you just rarely notice it. ActivityPub posts require federation to happen via follows which means that sometimes you'll miss replies from people that are not yet federated with your instance. All that said, we will be able to get Surf working at the same level as all the other clients out there. Stay tuned.

@David@setouchi.social @surf@flipboard.social @greg@flipboard.social Fair question. Our focus so far has been to get the custom feeds experience to be great across platforms. We also wanted to enable new users to the social web to be able to easily sign up and create an account that could seamlessly work across protocols. As a result, the following feed experience has been a lower priority because we know there are plenty of other apps out there that do a great job at this for Mastodon users....

What&#39;s one big thing we could do to make it easy for new users to follow others and engage more in the Fediverse while encouraging a diversity of instances? Eliminate the flow below and make it seamless to follow and engage with posts across instances.

Flying back from #SxSW where I evangelized #ActivtyPub, #Mastodon and the #Fediverse. It’s crazy how few people have even heard of this movement and all anyone could talk about was #GenerativeAI. I felt like an eccentric prophet holding a sign with scrawled writing “The end of the walled gardens is nigh” But as many of you on Mastodon already know, the dawn of the open social web is here now and next SXSW is likely to be very different.

Killer interview by @reckless1280 with CEO of Superhuman on today's Decoder. [Insert emotional or stakes based words here that underscore why "attribution" of bad advice hallucinated from a good creator is a terrible idea] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5eC5wdQPZs
