Trying out the fediverse for the first time today. I've been reading a lot about it, now it's time to figure out how it works and build an internet home here.
My goal is to figure out how I can bring https://gobikecamping.com/ into the fediverse and help people who love bike touring own their data and escape the metaverse.
#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz Sounds like you might like #BikeNite (and you can follow hashtags, if you didn't already know that)

#NewHere #introductionWelcome aboard, @FediTips and fedi.garden are great resources here

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz Yes--Hashtags are essential for finding the content and people you want in the Fediverse. And I thought @smellsofbikes might have noticed this thread by now, but I guess not so I'll tag him. This is right up his alley. -

#NewHere #introductionI still tent camp, but I'm too old to do it on a bike. I will happily follow your account and enjoy bike camping vicariously.

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz I would love to try this. Seeing nothing in my home state, yet.

@StaceyCornelius I hadn't seen these! thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
@spencexyz @StaceyCornelius #bikenite runs every Friday from 7-8pm (eastern time) though a lot of the folks are based in CA (4-5pm their time)
@ascentale hosts, and gives 8 prompts each week that you can respond to in real time, or any time at your convenience
Sometimes it gets super-geeky, and sometimes it’s light-hearted, but your content would be very welcome! -

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz aloha and welcome! 🌺
I bet you can find other bike enthusiasts under #biking or #bikes or something similar.

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz Welcome! My best advice is to follow hashtags and to follow liberally. You can always unfollow if someone isn’t a good fit. Quality conversations are the goal, not the number of followers or mentions.
Welcome!

Tits or gtfoKidding! I just thought I'd make you feel at home as you move from the wider web. Welcome, hashtag the fuck out of everything, follow widely, cats and lichen, and don't let anybody tell you you're doing it wrong.

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz Welcome. Map looks good but also looks like it covers USA only? Good to see another bike person, you're gonna find a lot of people alike on fedi 👍

@claralistensprechen3rd @spencexyz I've seen other people on here who have rolled their own persona versions of Strava, but I haven't previously seen anyone doing a bike equivalent of open street maps. It'd sure be nice.

@clew right now it refers to content you put online, like photos and posts you make about your long distance bicycle adventures.
long term, I'd love to see a federated version of Strava. every year they cut down their api access further and further. but it's our data and we should be able to share with any external apps we want.
I'm trying to figure out how I can use the tools I'm building to expose more cyclists to the fediverse and help fuel that demand.

#NewHere #introduction@spencexyz hello and welcome!
If your website is using WordPress, you can look into the ActivityPub plugin so that it can federate too.

hey @Bonfire ! i saw this thread and thought you might be interested. there are currently solutions like OpenTracks for tracking physical activity statistics, but none have direct integration with ActivityPub for social sharing. A bonfire extension to integrate with an existing activity tracker could help many cyclists, hikers, runners, and more activity clubs migrate from Strava to communities on the fediverse

#NewHere #introductionHi and welcome!
I'm mostly aware of the German bike fraction, but I'm sure there's plenty of people here posting in English.
It's probably been said to you before, but the best way to find people is using hashtags.
Also, you can set up an RSS feed on your website, and people can subscribe to it through the fediverse.
Wishing you all the best, and safe riding!

@lutindiscret @spencexyz oh oui, une alternative à Strava fédérée, ça serait tellement bien !
En tout cas il y a du monde au croisement du libre et du cyclotourisme / cyclisme qui pourrait peut-être aider !
Je relaie 😉
And welcome @spencexyz, curious to follow what happens next! -

Women Wage Peace (WWP), in Israele per la pace

Donne per la pace in Israele
Women Wage Peace (WWP) è stato fondato nel 2014 da un gruppo di donne israeliane, tra cui spiccano Vivian Silver, attivista pacifista canadese-israeliana tragicamente uccisa nell'attacco di Hamas del 7 ottobre 2023, e Yael Admi.
Yael Admi, riconosciuta da Time tra le donne dell'anno nel 2024, è un'altra leader fondatrice, attiva nei legami con partner palestinesi come Women of the Sun.

@hongminhee@hollo.social thanks, good answer :smile:
I would wonder then that maybe you might end up sounding like an LLM, then. Best interject some of your own style later on :wink:

@phnt@fluffytail.org Multilingual posting is something I've actually been thinking about and experimenting with already. I'm building a fediverse platform for software developers called Hackers' Pub, where I've been prototyping exactly this kind of feature. My other project, @hollo@hollo.social, is where I post from right now, and I'd like to bring something similar there eventually—the main obstacle is that most fediverse platforms don't properly render multilingual posts even when they receive them—the protocol already supports it via contentMap, but implementations like Mastodon tend to pick one language arbitrarily rather than presenting all of them.
Outside the fediverse, my blog already works this way: each post is written in multiple languages (Korean, Japanese, and English), not as translations filed separately but as the same post published in all three. It's a pattern I find natural given how I actually think and write across languages.
On Google Translate: I stopped using it for Korean–English a long time ago, for the same reasons you'd expect. These days I mostly use Kagi Translate, which is LLM-based and noticeably better for distant language pairs. The gap between that and older MT is stark enough that I think "machine translation" has started to mean two quite different things depending on which generation of tools you're talking about.
