I think I just had THE fediverse moment:
Scrolling through my timeline watching text posts, photos, a peertube video...A short video.

"ah nice MTB video" , I thought. Until I saw the handle: someone@loops. Wait.. I see a loops here. This isn't just a video. This is a video on A DIFFERENT Service. And I can seamlessly interact with it.

A new service just integrated seamlessly into my timeline. No "connect your account", no "extra app", no "extra login", no, it's just there

This is #fediverse

@hikingdude @_elena I was explaining this very thing to a friend who was a fediverse skeptic.

And… he didn't get why this is the best thing, ever for social media.

@WTL @_elena ugh so sad ☹️

I just told my wife "like if you scroll through Instagram and see YouTube there as well".

@hikingdude @_elena I'll wear him down. I am nothing if not relentless. 🤣 The #Fediverse has given me so much - so many wonderful connections all around the world.
