tilde.zone is an order of magnitude smaller than indieweb.social (thousands of users vs. tens of thousands), so I plan to make note of how that affects the experience.

Once I've explored enough, I'll pick a place to settle down, so I may be back here!

Next stop on my instance tour, I'll be moving my main posting identity over to https://tilde.zone, where I already have @xian set up and ready to go.

The Tildeverse community is also oriented toward independent creative types, harkening back to the earliest Linux-based web identity model using a ~username after a domain to shortcut to the public user folder of that username.

tilde.zone

mastodon instance of the tildeverse, a collection of small public access *nix systems for collaboration, creativity, and socializing. a proud part of the small internet.

https://indieweb.social is a fantastic place with a really interesting set of local and federated timelines.

I'm a longtime enthusiast of the independent web (going back to my "antiweb" days in the 90s, anti- commercialization, that was) so this a really good fit for me.

However, as I am still new to Mastodon and exploring the dynamics of instance size, after an initial stint on https://mstnd.social and a few great months, here, I am going to try migrating to a somewhat smaller host.

Indieweb.Social

INDIEWEB.SOCIAL is an instance focused on the evolution of #Openweb, #Indieweb, #Fediverse, #Mastodon, #Humanetech and #Calm technologies.

schadenfreude update, day 3
I thought fantasy football would have more dragons and swords.

By the way, the whole McCarthy thing is such a good example of why people who complain about progressive Dems ruining things are so entirely and completely full of shit.

By and large, they don’t. By and large they do exactly what they’re supposed to do, which is push their agenda and then, when their votes are really needed to get important things through, deliver the votes.

Captain John Harriman: No! Ferris, forget it! You're just gonna have to think of somethin' else. I'm puttin' my foot down.

Ferris keeps piloting.

Harriman: How 'bout we get a nice California class? My treat! A nice stretch job with a tv and a bar! How 'bout that?

Ferris: Come on! Live a little!

When I worked at #ICANN years ago there were these great pictures of early networking and Internet typologies on the wall at the main office.

You could no longer get them from the publisher, so I took pictures! [1/2]:
