All in all, I prefer the plural noun #Fedizens, but I'll settle for the mass noun #Federati.

Although "Federati" may be a plural noun too, but I've never heard of one Fedizen referred to as a "Fediratus". Perhaps as a name: "Hail, citizen Johannes Fediratus Mastodonus!"

@acor3 or mi sovviene che devo controllare come son #federati i miei blog #WordPress. Sono in un (piccolissimo) network (senza sottodomini) e se non ricordo male faceva un po' di confusione nel trovare il profilo del proprietario πŸ˜… @admin @pfefferle @fediverso @blogverso

Cold take on the social media thing in Brazil right now.

The Federati are understandably disappointed that Brazilians are migrating to BlueSky instead of the Fediverse from the site formerly known as Twitter.

This kind of reminds me of browsers.

It's hard to imagine a framing that would piss off the #federati more than 'Meta federating could maybe empower creators.'

W3C tech in the news: "Making Sense of Meta’s Move to Join the Fediverse" "Threads leverages ActivityPub β€” a decentralized, open social networking protocol built by the World Wide Web Consortium(W3C) – to connect to the fediverse. Meta’s initiative to bring the platform into the fediverse may have a downstream impact on the creator economy, allowing creators greater autonomy over their content and monetization strategies" https://www.pymnts.com/meta/2024/making-sense-of-metas-move-to-join-the-fediverse/

@felwert I believe #Federati is somewhat popular.

@sweetcherry Welcome to the #Fediverse!

You should be aware that there is a strong culture of inclusion among the #Federati, so if you post an image, be sure to include a descriptive #AltText for the benefit of blind and visually impaired users.

If you want to find people to follow, either click on some hashtags you're interested in or check out the Local and Federated timelines and see if anybody there looks cool.

#Federati: Do you think it's acceptable to use #Lemmy given that the developer is a hardcore #tankie?

Both #Bluesky and #Twitter will focus far more on monetisation than on decentralisation. They need confrontation and provocation for that. If we, the #federati, understand that and avoid that black hole, we can build something that lasts. That stays. That grows. That's my sincere hope.
What #Mastodon / #ActivityPub brings back to the internet is the #SharingByDefault attitude. The joy of sharing to people that genuinely value your messages and interact accordingly. This threatens the ad-driven, centralised model. It has the power to break it. So keep on tooting, fellow #federati ;)
And again I will retreat to my collection of duvets and a hot cocoa while reading another SF book before I gently fall asleep. CU tomorrow, dear #federati :)
