@Floppy@mastodon.me.uk @evan@photos.cosocial.ca ​don't fall for it! That's two different people! Evan has been abducted or taken over by AI or ABDUCTED BY AI!

Evan succeeds and helps free the world from Bug Tech so the machines send a terminator back in time to impersonate him, but they can't grow hair!

@FediVideo@social.growyourown.services ​that's incredible! Thank you for making the list. :-). <3

@hiphopheaven@mastodon.social @box464@mastodon.social ​I don't really use Mastodon. I've been using GoToSocial. But I really like Bonfire. It has some bugs, but I see it easier to control things for local communities. Happy to answer any questions I can. Also the bonfire devs might be there as well. And then I'll record and upload to TubeFree.org for those to catch later.

@pluralistic@mamot.fr once again gives an AMAZING presentation at #39C3 about how the current US political climate is helping to wake up the rest of the world to what they've lost in tech.

Thanks to Trumps' policies, we could be on the verge of a new age in technology and the internet. Not where who can get there first and lock in their customers, but who can create the BEST PRODUCTS for the consumers around the world.

This was an INCREDIBLE watch. Take 60 minutes and get excited with me!

@JMMaok@mastodon.online ​I've never heard of this. This is fascinating though as I went to All Things Open 2025 and Raleigh had a booth there showing off their smart city tech. I'm attempting to contact them about the Fediverse, including NC having grants to getting citizens online.

This seems interesting though. I'm on Matrix, Signal, Discord, etc if you wanna reach out to me and we can talk about it. I'm personally interested in this, but yeah this seems ilke this would be a bit different than Fedi advocacy.

Reading the article though it definitely seems like there are trade offs. Knowing how that's used is also important. We educate ourselves. Love that. 😄

Having moved all of my Fireside Fedi interviews to Tube Free, @blenderdumbass@mastodon.online has been creating fun clips for me to upload. I've been doing this manually.

#Peertube has recommendations that you would like to see for their upcoming work.

If you want to see clipping built into Peertube, I sure do, you can upvote the idea here:

And of course check out Fireside Fedi at tubefree.org with all the new fun clips!

@JMMaok@mastodon.online ​Right now @eric@mastodon.eom.dev and I are working through the process. We're thinking Sir Walter Coffee. We know Triangle Toot Mastodon had one a few months ago at Tap Yard, so we'll try that if Sir Walter doesn't work out.

And I absolutely agree to being in person. I want something that catches people's attention that might not know about the Fediverse. They're just out and about and see it and it catches their interest. 😄

I agree we need more of this in the Triangle though and I'm going to attempt to participate more this coming year.

Myself and another are planning on hosting a meet up in a public restaurant. The meet up is about the Fediverse of course in downtown #Raleigh. I had thoughts of some kind of display to show off different projects around the Fediverse. Was thinking a projector and have a presentation or something showing off the different platforms. Has anyone done anything similar or have thoughts or suggestions?

@darkuncle@infosec.exchange @keengrasp@layer8.space @ifixcoinops@retro.social @drwho@masto.hackers.town it really whips the lllama's ass.​

Thank you very much to @labr@ravenation.club for their donation to BT Free! The donations help us cover the costs of TubeFree.org our Peertube instance and help us to advocate for the Open Social Web more in the future.

@berlinfediday@berlin.social @defnull@chaos.social @box464@mastodon.social ​thank you!

@berlinfediday@berlin.social @defnull@chaos.social @box464@mastodon.social ​what is Fediverse Assembly?

@defnull@chaos.social @berlinfediday@berlin.social @box464@mastodon.social ​Fediverse Assembly?

@neil@mastodon.neilzone.co.uk @JenJen@mastodon.art @nightjar@twoot.site ​I've never had an Amiga but I know there are a lot of folks that loved theirs.

@JenJen@mastodon.art @nightjar@twoot.site ​trackball. That looks OLD.

@JenJen@mastodon.art ​lol wait you're drunk nerding? I LOVE THIS!

All of those are correct. They're FREE as in cost and FREE as in freedom to use. You can take the software and read it's code and change it for whatever you need.

Same with Owncast, Mastodon, Peertube, Linux, etc.

@matt@writing.exchange @res260@infosec.exchange @Floppy@mastodon.me.uk @paige@masto.canadiancivil.com ​I live in Raleigh NC. I can't make it. But I too hope there's a live stream or recording. Preferably on Peertube. :-). Can we get more info in general really? Is this a new project! I must know more! 😄
