Choose a thousand small communities instead of one loud machine. Choose timelines that listen. Choose to build together. Choose a human web.

@andypiper Something about small admin/mod team, forge/bazaar stuff?
@shalf I was thinking about how to cover some of that...

@andypiper Choose Fediverse.
Choose community over corporations.
Choose decentralized servers that don’t secretly monetize your attention.
Choose admins who are actual humans, not anonymous hotline bots following a script.
Choose feeds without algorithmic force‑feeding, without “We thought you’d like this,” without manipulative infinite scroll. -

Choose content written for people, not for reach.
Choose the luxury of not filling a billionaire’s timeline.
Choose federation, because you want to decide who you follow — and who gets to follow you. -

Choose Mastodon, Misskey, Pixelfed, PeerTube, Friendica, or whatever tomorrow brings.
Choose the option to move at any time without losing your digital life. -
Choose a thousand small communities instead of one loud machine. Choose timelines that listen. Choose to build together. Choose a human web.
Choose places where your words aren’t metrics and your friends aren't a product. Choose open standards. Choose an internet that doesn't depend on one billionaire's mood. Choose moderation with local norms over faceless algorithms.
[apart from open standards, I think these could do with some work]

Choose conversation over conflict.
Choose slow social instead of doomscrolling.
Choose people, not brands.
Choose Fediverse.
Because maybe the internet isn’t broken — maybe it just needs to belong to us again. -

Choose creativity. Choose interoperability instead of being walled in or caged. Choose joy. Choose The Indie Beat!

@andypiper I read this as "choose a thousand small communists..." and yep, it still holds up that way. 👍

@andypiper But why would I want to do a thing like that?

@andypiper I chose not to choose Mastodon. I chose somethin’ else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you’ve got Bluesky?

Choose Mastodon. Choose the Fediverse.
Choose curiosity over virality. Boost because you care. Follow because you’re interested. Be niche. Be human.
Choose Freedom.

Choose clients in a range of fabulous front-ends.

@klara where :O

Ah, yes, the kind of record store with tarot and incense sections.

@molly0xfff This is hilarious, and I am definitely at least partially the target audience (would be 100% if they were crocheted socks lol). I did get some knitting needles a couple months back but haven't given it a go yet 🤷
-
@molly0xfff idk the first thing about #knitting or #crochet, but the people who do these crafts seem very fun-spirited. So, I share this reminder that the U.S. National Park Service has patterns for a goat, a cactus, fish, triops, a beaver, and more. https://www.nps.gov/search/?query=Crochet&sitelimit=&affiliate=nps

@newstik @molly0xfff
I don't recognize him either.

@EugestShirley @molly0xfff Who is the bespectacled guy in the back?

Quando pubblico un video su Mastodon si federa su Pixelfed ma non su Loops. Veramente strano. Vi risulta?
