Working as fediverse ambassador around the world. Doing my best, at least.
I wrote an e-mail to Fovionics, one of blind-dedicated smart glasses companies.
They have a Facebook group to join in, as a community service.
This is the text:

Hello, I joined the list of people interested in Fovionics smart glasses product, as a blind person working in tech environment.
But I must be honest towards you: I don't like the facebook-only approach.
True that Meta sells rayban which are very much used by blind people all over the world. But Facebook, Instagram and similar, are no longer caring about diversity-inclusion policies, their algorithms are promoting mostly far-right oriented contents, if you are a serious company you don't force people to join a third-party social network who decides what and when contents are shown. Even groups, algorithm decides to shadowban some contents.
I don't consider a good customer service when I'm forced to choose which social network to be in.
I'm in the Fediverse, Mastodon. If you run WordPress you even could become an instance yourself... https://jointhefediverse.net
or, better, a forum based on Lemmy which can be accessed via web or followed via fediverse client.
Beyond facebook, there's the world. Goodbye.

I've received a reply where they said Facebook group is optional and they're working to include "more open technologies, including direct e-mail", they created Facebook group as many of their customers are in that platform.
I won't post their reply as I didn't ask for consent. And until someone doesn't explicitly say "share it", I never share others' words. With mine, I do what I want.
I have this goal, to help more blind people join federated platforms and the best way is involving companies who can mention fediverse in their newsletters. We can't rely on sites only, or worse on social networks. Newsletters, podcasts, places people attend. #fediverse #blind -

@filippodb @peertube @morrolinux @fediverso @anaru_sensei su YouTube ho seguito corsi molto interessanti che penso esistano perchè l'autore viene monetizzato per il lavoro fatto. Quello che faccio fatica a capire è quale possa essere un incentivo economico per produrre contenuti di qualità con peertube.

According to @tchambers@indieweb.social's My 2026 Open Social Web Predictions:
Fedify will power the federation layer for at least one mid-sized social platform (500K+ users) that adds ActivityPub support in 2026. The “build vs. buy” calculation for federation shifts decisively toward “just use Fedify.”
We're honored by this recognition and will keep working hard to make #ActivityPub adoption easier for everyone. Thank you, Tim!

Io quando qualcuno manda a fanculo YouTube dopo l’ennesima censura e carica tutto su @peertube e quando dopo l’ennesimo strike assurdo o ban senza spiegazioni dicono “basta” agli algoritmi tossici e scoprono che su PeerTube si può:
✨ pubblicare senza censura arbitraria
✨ non essere trattato come un prodotto
✨ far parte di una community, non di una piattaformaE allora benvenuti @morrolinux e @anaru_sensei!
👉 Benvenuti su @peertube
👉 Benvenuti nel @fediverso.

@nilocram @informapirata @prealpinux @fediverso @opensource però con youtube non sempre funziona, google ci mette del suo per bloccare periodicamente i sistemi di estrazione video.
