What would it take to get photo journalists and video journalists on the Fediverse?
They can keep using Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etc, too.
But, what would it take to ALSO get them here?

I have been trying to think of ways of making the Fediverse more Friendly and Welcoming.
To people outside the Fediverse.
To people thinking of joining the Fediverse.
To people who recently joined the Fediverse.
And more.
...
What do YOU think could make the Fediverse more Friendly and Welcoming?

Some people want BREAKING NEWS.

At a (non-Fediverse) meetup telling people about Loops 🙂
Something Fediverse related that I am working on —
Toddlerverse
Basically, what I have been thinking about is —
What would take to make areas of the Fediverse geared towards toddlers.
(The document I am writing is still a work in progress.)
(I am a parent of young children, so I have first-hand experience with kids usage of online media, including social-media.)

The WAFRN idea of custom themes is very cool, too.
Decades ago, being able to 'theme' and 'skin' things was common.
I like that WAFRN has this feature.

I would assume that, from an ActivityPub & JSON-LD point-of-view, that these WAFRN "bites" / "pokes" are probably some type of custom Activity type.

It might be fun to make able to use your own custom verbs, too.
For example:
"Joe Blow has throw a water balloon at you."
I think it wouldalso be nice if other Fediverse software supported the displaying of these types of activities (even if they don't support creating them.)

I like the idea of having "fun" things that are part of (at least some of) the Fediverse.
The WAFRN idea of "bites" / "pokes" seems like one of them.
I would assume notifications for it might look something like:
"Joe Blow has bit you."
