Once upon a time, I was very active on MySpace and then Facebook. Then things got really shitty, so I quit and joined BlueSky.
I felt horrible, like the smallest bit of the code, unrecognized, shouting into the void for robots and scammers. But it a good place, right? And then they banned trans people while bringing in the authoritarians.So, I thought all social media is bad, and I should try and get a website going where I could shout at the void on my own space.
I came across @_elena and started playing around with PeerTube. I saw @firesidefedi talking about exciting things, connecting with real people, and rebuilding that good time I used to have being online.
It was exciting, but I wasn't sure. And then @TIBtv came on, and I was blown away. My people! There they are!
I hope other people like me quit lurking quietly and join in. It's fantastic here on the #fediverse

@darkwolf@hear-me.social as soon as I saw your stuff on Peertube I meant to tell you to reach out to @limebar@mastodon.social about getting it on @TIBtv@tv.theindiebeat.fm . It's great stuff.
And @_elena@mastodon.social is the best of us. <3

@darkwolf @_elena @firesidefedi @TIBtv My children were on my space. They’re in their 40s now. I left Facebook around 2015 and Twitter the day it was purchased for propaganda. I love it here, welcome.

@darkwolf @_elena @firesidefedi @TIBtv
Bluesky isn't terrible if you find your "tribe" with the starter packs stuff and it's a particularly active and welcoming one. But you're right with all those crazy bots and scammers on it. It does give me twitter lite vibes and I feel it's only a matter of when than when they put ads in it... Yuck. The fact that it's a US company also gives me pause especially watching how the government is going on a rampage in collecting anyone and everyone's data. -

@darkwolf welcome.
Take a seat, there is drinks and cookies over there.
Watch out for the cables.
And the squirrels.

@darkwolf been here a few weeks. Just changed instances. I like it here. Welcome

@firesidefedi I immediately reached out to @limebar as soon as I could, and I'm so glad I did. Me rushing to get an account for chat and to submit something is the whole reason why I'm on here. 👍😁

@julian Ahh, thanks Julian! That makes sense. That’s pretty much the same guidance I got from Claude and ChatGPT too. If I go for Apple at some point, I won’t be able to just wrap the site and call it a day. I’d need to build out more native functionality, and I’m not going to pretend I fully understand that path yet haha.
-
@revstanton@mastodon.social not sure, but happy to be proven wrong.
PWAs are welcome on the fediverse (I don't think anyone can stop you lol)
I think Play Store there's a way in, but Apple is famously against it.
In fact, your push notifications are probably using the web push API. Guess who single handedly held back adoption? Apple.
They only allowed it in 2023.
-
@julian Also I didn't answer the question fully. I'm doing this in phases. I started with PWA as this is all still very early, and I am trying to prove people want to use the app. I don't have the full plan mapped out but know I would need to make changes for the Apple review if I go that route.
-
@julian PWA's aren't allowed in the fediverse or the app store? This is news to me but that isn't surprising. I asked Claude options for getting to the app store and it recommended PWA.
-
@revstanton@mastodon.social what's the plan to get it in the app store?
Thought PWAs were famously not allowed.
-
When not in Denver, improve mobile UI/UX?
Southwest canceled my flight so I made Inkwell work on mobile. PWA with push notifications. App stores coming eventually.…
