Dear Fedi friends,

By now you might have seen the post announcing the release of my promotional video for the Fediverse. But in case you have boosts turned off, here we go: https://news.elenarossini.com/fediverse-video/

I posted about it this morning from my #GoToSocial account because I have a 5000 character limit there. And I had so many people to thank for their help. It really takes a village.

Thank you for all the wonderful feedback so far ❤️

A 4 minute video that aims to introduce the Fediverse to people not familiar with it

@_elena What a fantastic video! Loved it. I would also really welcome similar revolution on hardware/software platforms. Apple and Google are both in the business of making money (which is understood and mostly accepted) but what options do we have if we want to ‘de-centralise’ our gear?

Google are harvesting data and content for their Ai, and Apple have connections with mining in the DRC, and labour practices that would certainly not be acceptable in the western markets they thrive in. Ideas?
