Despite what you think about BlueSky, can we just celebrate the exodus from X/Twitter?

Society has woken up from it's walled garden induced slumber.

The fact that Facebook has implemented ActivityPub would have been unfathomable just a few years ago.

We're not only on the winning side, but we did so independently and to such a successful degree that the biggest social media company came to us.

Don't forget that.

They came to us.

We are the future.

#spreadTheWord #youAreMakingHistory

for activitypub to succeed, it needs platforms that non-nerds would use

nobody cares about the backend lang lol, focus on what matters

it's all about photo and video 😎

Good Afternoon fediverse!

We're at over 2k sign-ups on https://loops.video on the first day!

Working to resolve issues and send out the remaining onboarding emails today.

#loops

All that being said, I look forward to resolving these issues with Meta through the Social Web Foundation.

I'd like to believe I'm wrong about my concerns, and they really could be a bunch of coincidences, at their scale, I wouldn't doubt it.

I'm driven to complete my goals of building an open source/federated FB/Meta empire with Pixelfed, Groups, Loops, Sup and a few others.

I can't be bought, but I will accept small donations and continue building for the people ❤️

Some people complain, some people ship change.

If a high school drop-out like me can learn how to code, what is stopping you?

Seriously though, I'm living proof that a gay, indigenous, high school dropout from redneck Alberta can defy all odds and practice to become the developer he always dreamed of.

Never stop believing in yourself ❤️

"Everyone is allowed to implement ActivityPub."

There is a reason you need to take a driving test before being issued a license.

That's what incumbents would say, I say hell yes, ignore those "in cum" "bents".

ActivityPub just like the fediverse, belongs to everyone.

🚀

I'm debating releasing the client and server code for Loops when the public beta is ready or holding off until v1.

Unlike the nostr:npub120zh308gs69j3vwgvvrzgglv58vsk3q0vef43uajyu0lc3mtldsq2p33r2 app, Loops is a lot simpler and won't take as long to reach v1.

I want to release it early, but at the same time, I don't want to deal with support from people who are running it in production.

The public beta should be ready in the next week, and I'll be inviting a few people to the TestFlight (iOS only for now).

🤔

I'm so done with Matrix, we can't even remove spam in the pixelfed matrix, so I'm moving all pixelfed operations to Discord.

nostr:npub145d5fhs0sn0rgaqnqrcc3ucvmy9djsqcwa8kx773a8qk8fcjhqzsp9fdl3 Nope!

nostr:npub1gk426s3gq4gqhvd5ex09y8a6mgyqlf8gs2xxxw8num8rw9cwgxysppxfs8 yes, they are lyrics

Hey

I'm kinda glad you didn't pick up

I kinda just called to hear your voice, so

Your voice recording was enough

I've been thinking about you, and I miss you

I hope, and I wish that you're doing okay

I want us to go back to the old days

Because I miss you

And I just thought of you, so I thought I'd call you to tell you

That you crossed my mind and I took that as a sign that

I should call and say hi

So that's all, hi

But the idea of you listening to this

The thought of you on the other side of the line

I can't hang up

I don't want this to end

The Fediverse:

This vast, cosmic orchestra where every little bit, born from the heart of a star, showcases the united spirit and creative genius of our community, and pulses through every part of this digital cosmos, declaring that this magnificent symphony belongs to everyone.

Seriously though, the mobile app is in "feature freeze" mode, meaning that we're not working on any new features!
