Hello everyone!

[183231bcb@transfem.social]

@[email protected] I asked my cat to purr if she created the fediverse and she purred, so I think my cat created the fediverse. I haven't gotten her to explain what the fediverse actually is though.

@[email protected] @[email protected] it's also a common misconception that it's the "Shark" one. It's actually "SharKey", and it's a fediverse software devoted entirely to the critically acclaimed video game, "Baldur's Gate 3".

@cwebber ActivityPub is a unit of measurement for the energy generated by happy hour at the median drinking establishment.

@cwebber @wizard hi, welcome to the fediverse! in case you didn't know, the fediverse is a network of softwares loosely using a spec called activitypub,

@Raccoon @ramsey @mlevison @chawopro @cwebber wait, wait, you have a fediverse explainer available for copy+paste?

@mxjaygrant @cwebber ActivityPub is when there are vastly different definitions of what a Code of Conduct is. Ones "please talk to each other" is the others "hate crime".

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] ah, a type of real world squid game, if you will.

@cwebber activity pub is a thing that gives developers anxiety. Welcome to the tootiverse.

@cwebber Salut et bienvenue, ActivityPub est un protocole utilisé pour interconnecter les outils du Fédiverse, cependant il est très mal documenté et manque cruellement de démonstration. Un jour peut-être il y aura une vraie documentation qui expliquera ce qui est réellement attendu, de quelle manière et surtout quels éléments obligatoires il faut pour que ça fonctionne sans avoir besoin de faire de la retro-ingéniérie dessus !

@fantazo @mxjaygrant I hope I do not commit any crimes, thank you

[trwnh@mastodon.social]

@cwebber @fantazo @mxjaygrant hate crime? i sure do!

[craignicol@glasgow.social]

@cwebber I originally thought the activity pub was the opposite of the Nazi bar, because the only activity they want to engage in is regression.

Although it's apparently so easy to use that even Nazis got the hang of it.

I'm glad someone thought of that and made it easy to block the nazi bars though. to the geniuses who built in protection at the protocol level. Always practice safe sending.

Welcome to TechHub, and the Fediverse network we're part of! Nice to have you here, just be sure to post the link to this on your Twitter so people can follow you here.

I'm one of your local moderators.

Some advice to get you started...

There is no algorithm on this network, so we generate our feeds by following people and hashtags. I recommend you search up a few hashtags and follow them now to get started.

I also recommend you make a post talking about yourself, using the hashtag #introduction, and adding further hashtags for the things you intend to post about. That way, you can find some followers right away.

Happy posting!
