I can already see that if you are on the Fediverse with different account names for each instance how annoying this is when you circulate content from one of your instances to another.

@janettespeyer unfortunately not...
Some people that post from multiple accounts will boost the posts from the other account so they're on the same timeline.

once all servers fully federate, why would people have separate accounts except to either intentionally post different types of content for different audiences or make sure they are speaking personally vs as an employee? this all seems positive imo. I want politicians to post some stuff as a candidate and some as an elected official, for instance.

@wjmaggos @janettespeyer that might be the case here, as she was originally on Flipboard proper, but this is her Flipboard.social mastodon account.βοΈ

@BeAware thatβs what Iβm doing right now. Boosting from one to another. Hopefully not for much longer.
I think in 10 years Iβm going to be looking at this post and laughing just like when I see my first Twitter posts from 2007 -

@janettespeyer I feel the same way.
Ever since I've been here, my dream has been "one account to rule them all" and we seem to be getting closer and closer every day and it's very exciting!

@janettespeyer @wjmaggos ahh...I was probably mistaken.
I was under the impression that your original interactions with Fediverse came through Flipboard.com whenever they started federating.
My mistake!

@janettespeyer @wjmaggos oh okay.
That's where most people start but with all these new platforms starting to integrate, I have a feeling that might change soon enough!
A ton are now getting their first Fediverse taste through Threads and BlueSky which is pretty freakin cool!
I do wish they'd advertise it a bit more and make it more noticeable, but that's probably a far stretch for Meta.

Mike Macgirvin π₯οΈreplied to JanetteSpeyer last edited byThere is fediverse software which does this and we've helped develop standards so other fediverse software can do this also; as well as other important social features like circles and comment controls and conversation containers -- so everybody viewing a thread sees exactly the same conversation. The software you have chosen to use does not provide these abilities.
