New to the Fediverse?

Here’s a quick tip:

Home Timeline → Posts from people you follow
Local Timeline → Posts from your server
Federated Timeline → Posts from other connected servers

It’s one of the things that makes the Fediverse feel like a huge interconnected community.

Hello World 🌍

10 years ago today the very first post on Mastodon was made by @Gargron

What started as a small project has grown into something much bigger than anyone expected. Today the Fediverse is home to communities, creators, developers, and millions of people who believe in a more open social web.

We are glad to be here 10 years later seeing how big the Fediverse as a whole has grown. Here's to the next 10 years.

Looking for a Sharkey app? Try Aria.

Aria is an open-source client that supports most Sharkey features, including the BETA chat system. It’s also available on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and Linux, so you can use it on almost any device.

The app already works well feature-wise, though the visual design could use some improvements in the future. It also supports push notifications, which you can enable using a small code provided by your Sharkey instance. A tutorial for this may come later.

Want to contact the admin of a Fediverse instance? Here’s a quick way to find them.

Most servers publish their admin contact details on the /about page of their domain.

For example:
https://mastodon.social/about

There you can usually find the admin’s email address and Fediverse handle.

You can also see the details for our Fedicate Social instance here:
https://social.fedicate.org/about
(Even though it's a Sharkey instance, the page works the same way.)

There are 80+ new and updated files that power the new #Loops Starter Kits feature!

From exploration to curation, I've built a highly polished experience that is open, accessible and federated.

Admins will love the powerful management, that also includes audit logs.

Can't wait to ship this later this week!

🚀 The Fedicate Fund is NOW OPEN!

This monthly fund helps keep https://social.fedicate.org online for March.

Our main goal is £25 per month, which covers most of the server costs for hosting the instance and storing uploaded media.

💡 If you're a Fedicate Social user, you can include your username when supporting.
As a thank you, we'll give you 1 month of expanded Fedicate Drive storage, one of the small perks we can offer right now.

🎯 Stretch Goals

£125 total
(+£100 beyond the main goal)

This helps us print physical Fediverse flyers that @sam has been designing so we can promote the Fediverse offline.

£175 total
(+£50 beyond the previous goal)

This allows us to create a short educational Fediverse video, explaining parts of the Fediverse and helping new people understand how it works.
It also gives us a small budget for resources, locations, and sets.

Thank you for supporting independent social platforms ❤️
Every contribution helps keep Fedicate running.
