It's basically a network of connected social media platforms that can all talk to each other. A lot of people explain it like email, so you can send an email from Gmail to a Yahoo account and back again. It's the same idea, you can post here but people on other platforms can see it and interact.

You don’t get rid of all your things when you move house 🏠 So why should you when you move to a new social platform? This is one of the reasons we love the Social Web. You get to control your space and you get to keep your stuff, no matter where you go! If you’re interested, we’re happy to chat 🙂

Hi! Is there a way to include reposts from users on a list? I'm trying to build a Feed of users bridged from the Fediverse but importing them as a List doesn't import their reposts which is essential. Thanks!

Threads API is the big news of the week. But what if Mastodon's fedi:creator footnote tells a bigger story? While the Threads API takes us down a well worn path, re-centring the #Fediverse on blogs, podcasts, forums and curation takes us somewhere new. See you there!

Hi Belen, we understand concerns around Threads. Ideally, we'd get posts in front of Threads users & control what comes back. Hopefully people will start to understand the benefits of the social web & migrate to healthier spaces like this!
