Good morning Fedi friends! I hope you're having a nice weekend so far.
Yesterday some dear friends got married at city hall... They asked me if I could take a few photos. Certainly!
It was so much fun to get back to my first love: photography. I took 1064 photos... now narrowed down to 53 favorites.
Maybe my 2026 resolution should be to pick up photography work again. I love it so much. Funny how people were profusely thanking me yesterday. I was like, no no no, you're doing ME a favor 😆
@thomasfuchs Apple software engineers - or is that managers? - have a special talent in killing off perfectly working apps: iTunes, Aperture, Final Cut Pro... I'm now afraid for Pixelmator Pro, which was acquired by them 😢
@jan thank you Jan! Have a great day as well

@ilumium @Fairphone @murena whaaaaat? 😱
@leonieke so much food for thought ! And ideas about how to possibly improve outreach for the fediverse.
Now happy to be on my way back to Paris to my family 🤗
@leonieke buongiorno 👋
@jan hard to tell because it was towards the very end of the event and I think people were in a rush to go home. I hope we planted some seeds of curiosity
@NorcalGma2 wow!!!! 🤩
@max awwwwww bellissima analogia 🙌
Quoting @morloi and re-sharing this here (translated) for you my Fedi friends:
“Today I fulfilled a desire. Thanks to @_elena and @niccolove, I brought a little piece of the Fediverse to the stage at Social Media Strategies, perhaps the most important event in Italy dedicated to social media professionals. Surprised faces, a gesture of annoyance, and hopefully a bit of curiosity too….”
Thank you so much Morloi! 💖

@sylvia sounds awesome 😆
@andycarolan a lot more people knew about Bluesky 😥
@nacly me at 4:45pm: I’ll be EXTREMELY diplomatic, I won’t mention politics or tech bros.
Me at 5:15pm on the main stage: I love how much power the fediverse gives its users. Like, you can defederate from instances whose rules or ethos you disagree with. I don’t trust Meta one bit so I personally defederated from Threads
(this after being asked to “say a few things about Threads”)
💀
Everyone was super nice though!
And it’s a wrap for the Social Media Strategies track at #TechWeekBologna 🇮🇹
I’m INCREDIBLY grateful to @morloi for giving us an opportunity to talk about the #fediverse on the main stage.
And it was so cool to finally meet @niccolove IRL. He’s so inspiring!
I hope we piqued the curiosity of people in the audience. About 1 out of 100 people had previously heard about the fediverse!
🌈 viva il #fediverso ✨
@shom thank you! ☺️
