**Bỏ lại Big Tech để tìm tự do số!**
Bẫy "chi phí chìm" đang giữ nhiều người gắn bó với các nền tảng lớn như Facebook. Thay đổi ngay khi ngành công nghệ chuẩn bị bước vào giai đoạn suy thoái! Ưu tiên: mạng xã hội phân cấp, thiết bị bảo mật, hệ điều hành mã nguồn mở, quyền sửa chữa… Cần xây dựng cộng đồng chào đón để hỗ trợ người mới bắt đầu trên Mastodon/Pixelfed. Liệu bạn có muốn gia nhập lực lượng hướng dẫn họ?

Uploaded my first @loops video by @dansup today. App keeps getting better (via Test Flight). Kudos!

Cons today: No edit ability after post to add tags or correct spelling and I also get booted out of leaving comments by the app every time the video loops/starts over. I have to compose my comments on short vida in a new window and cut-paste.

@Colarusso then maybe you can spread the word about https://fed.brid.gy/ on the other side as well?

I really appreciate that I can follow, e.g. @tedunderwood.me and @elotroalex.bsky.social here on mastodon, too, even though they focus their activities on bluesky.

I am not sure about how far bridging is adopted on the mastodon side, but I frequently look up bluesky accounts only to find that they are not bridged to mastodon.

Bridgy Fed

Bridgy Fed is a bridge between decentralized social networks like the fediverse, Bluesky, and web sites and blogs.

"In #federatedsocialmedia, localisation allows users to engage with people who share common regional experiences and concerns. This alignment supports better contextual understanding of speech norms, and the amplification of #localvoices often overlooked on global platforms.
#Regionalservers can also serve as hubs for civic discourse, activism, and community support, making them vital for democratic engagement and #culturalpreservation."
