Yeah that’s wrong, twitter posts don’t show up in Bluesky at all. Completely separate network

I think the idea is that the NSFW servers also federate with nonNSFW. So I guess it solves the problem of seeing posts about the news when you want to browse porn?

488k is the number of posts, they have 19k followers. Pretty great news still tho

Welcome to the club! I did an audible ‘oooooh’ the first time ActivityPub really clicked with me lol.

gods tagging someone’s masto directly from lemmy, and them being able to directly respond via masto is just so fucking nice

Also, you might want to take a look at https://zdf.social/@ZDF and https://ard.social/

ZDF and ARD are the two biggest broadcasters in Germany, and they both have their own ActivityPub (Mastodon) server.

In case you needed some extra convincing that other large mainstream news organisations also have realised that this is actually a good idea that makes sense ;)

A big news org from France is also on Mastodon with like 50k followers, but I cannot remember the name right now

Evan Prodromou (@evan@cosocial.ca) , one of the co-authors of ActivityPub is super interest in getting Canadian news organisations on board the fediverse. He gave a talk about that last night actually: https://cosocial.ca/@evan/110809723914430376

If you’re serious about this, you could totally reach out to him, I’m sure he would love to hear from people in CBC

Oh this is great to hear, I love Ruin and Time, and havent read Memory yet. So if thats even better, woah

Yeah I really love the Children Of series. I just realised that part 3 is finally out, so now I know what I’ll be reading next!

Love Chamber’s works so much. Its such a warm bath of comfort.

I just finished The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz. Its so fucking good, amazing worldbuilding, story and message. It really explores all the potential interesting ways that you can envision different future worlds in ways that other SciFi often doesnt. I’ve never read anything like this before.

Yes! One of the main reasons lots of people use Beeper

As a side note, Ian betteridge, who has the law named after him for the phenomenon you reference, is quite active on the fediverse

The core premise of federation is that people have the right of association. It’s people core right to say ‘no we don’t want to federate with you’. The microblogging side of fedi has figured this mostly out at this point. Not sure why this is a big deal
