Hi there, I’m Maddy.
I’m an American/German creator based in southern France. I’ve been over on Youtube for the past year, but hope contributing with content over here will help introduce more people to the #Fediverse and a different kind of social media experience.
I talk about:
#DumbPhone
#DigitalMinimalism
#BoardGames
#CD
#Thrifting
#Analog
#LowTech
#Books
#Library
#Hobbies📞💿📚🎲
Big thanks to @andypiper and @_elena for introducing me to this world.
@maddyteichmann @andypiper @_elena Welcome, looking at those talking points, I have the feeling you'll fit right in... Even the technologists here have a very strong "not like this" attitude.

Welcome to Fediverse, probably the best place to be in the internet.

Welcome, hey.

@maddyteichmann MakerTube is an instance of PeerTube. It is a server called MakerTube running the PeerTube software. It will all be part of PeerTube, yes.
@fluffgar Got it, thanks for the info. Any benefit to posting on one versus the other?

@maddyteichmann Watches and likes will almost definitely be slower to accumulate on PeerTube.
It's maybe best to treat it almost like and archive at first. Let your audience elsewhere know it's there regulary.
The Fediverse is a slow grower at times.
@FediTips will probably have some good advice.

I've done a guide to all the different ways you can get more visibility for your PeerTube videos: https://fedi.tips/how-to-promote-your-peertube-videos-account-and-channels
If you're wanting general tips on how to publish on PeerTube there's also a guide at https://fedi.tips/how-to-publish-videos-and-audio-on-peertube
Generally YouTube is more algorithm-driven and out of your control, whereas on PeerTube it's more manual and in your control.

@julian you've been doing great work.
I don't think @liaizon meant the original post to be a bummer for the Fediverse, but a wake-up call for engaging developers.
I agree that client-first development in ATProto is extremely exciting. We need to do better on the Fediverse side. Fortunately, our social API is great; we just need to start implementing it and using it.
-
@evan@cosocial.ca wait no, I have a better answer.
I must be on one of the other million fediverses @jaz@toot.wales talked about where nothing of note happens!
-
@evan@cosocial.ca maybe there just hasn't been a lot of true R&D coming from me then 😩
-
@julian @silverpill Are you guys even on the same Fediverse as I am?
- Dozens of FEPs under development
- 10+ task forces in the CG
- New work like quote posts from Mastodon
- Ghost.org went live in 2025
- E2EE from Emissary and Bonfire this year
- New Working Group to revise ActivityPubThere is a tonne going on. We just had a FOSDEM Social Web Devroom with 20+ presenters. FediMTL.ca is next week. Fediforum is the week after that.
-
@silverpill@mitra.social I'm sorry you feel that way. I agree that I suppose there hasn't been a lot of true R&D lately, though a lot of that could be we're just shipping with little fanfare.
-
In previous years, I published two "fediverse tech roadmap" posts:
- Fediverse tech roadmap 2024
- Fediverse tech roadmap 2025However, I didn't publish such post this year because not much has happened in 2025. Many problems I talked about require complex solutions, but unfortunately proposed solutions are often very limited or lead to centralization. Or worse, there is no solution but only an imitation of work. I don't want to write about that.
I saw a thread today where ATProto ecosystem was compared to #ActivityPub. Things are happening in the Atmosphere, but not in Fediverse. MAU graphs are flat. What's going on?
There are multiple factors at play, but I think fake activity may be the biggest contributor. Trivial developments presented as breakthroughs. Features that already exist somewhere in Fediverse presented as new inventions. Vaporware. Specs written by people who have no idea how to implement them. Working groups that do nothing but meetings.
Real work is ignored, competent developers see that and quit.
We need to fix this.
For my part, I will continue to document #Fediverse development at @weekinfediverse. But this newsletter doesn't have much impact.

@iDGS SUPERB advice David 🙌 @maddyteichmann @andypiper @FediTips @FediFollows

@maddyteichmann @andypiper @_elena 👋 (waves hello) FYI, In addition to @FediTips , @FediFollows is another good account to follow. And it looks like you already know that #Hashtags are a big thing hereabouts. I hear using #CamelCase (sic.) helps many folks, and so does including #ALTtext describing every image. (Plus, there’s sometimes bonus info therein!)
