During Automattic's Radical Speed Month, Matthias and I built Reader Everywhere: a new way to follow Bluesky, Mastodon, and the Fediverse from the WordPress.com Reader. 90-second demo below. :)
Un article pour celles et ceux qui n'ont pas encore rejoint une instance Mastodon. on en parle moins, mais il est toujours possible et intéressant de créer un compte Mastodon en 2026
inspiré par les réseaux sociaux j'ai été tenté d'afficher un bouton j'aime et les partages sur le site mais je préfère ne montrer que les commentaires
Convert microblog posts from Twitter, Mastodon, Threads, and Nostr to AT Protocol Bluesky posts.
A «nivel usuario», entre Mastodón y Bluesky no hay demasiada diferencia. Sin embargo, comunicarse entre ambas redes, aunque posible, viene con una serie de condicionantes que se parecen mucho al desacoplamiento de impedancia entre redes de componentes electrónicos.
Ich habe meine Blog-ID im Fediverse geändert. Ich hoffe, dass das keine Probleme macht. 🙈 Neue ID lautet: @mapf.net@mapf.net
Ich habe vorhin meine unter YunoHost gehostete Mastodon Instanz (zum ersten mal) geupdatet. Ich denke jeder der eine eigene Mastodon Instanz in YunoHost installiert hat wird wissen wie er diese updatet, ich habe im nachhinein allerdings ein paar Änderungen vorgenommen, die für andere vielleicht auch interessant sein könnten. Wir wechseln wir in das Mastodon Verzeichnis....
I've been meaning to write a bit about this for a while, but finally getting into Bluesky last week has given me the push I needed to get to it. Back in November, Christine Lemmer-Webber, one of the original authors of the ActivityPub protocol behind software like Mastodon, wrote an excellently-researched piece called How Decentralized Is Bluesky Really?

The demise of Post, one of the social networks that emerged from the 2022 Twitter exodus, shows how users have come to understand that vibes aren’t everything with social media.
I think Post's greatest miss was not interoperating with complementary products like Flipboard, Artifact, WordPress, Medium, and Ghost to build out a cross-platform network of creators, curators, and consumers.
This is my journey that started as an experiment to see how my Threads feed would look like on Mastodon and ended with me finding experiences that went above and beyond my expectations.
"fun" fact: each Mastodon server gets their own copy of your OG card
A fediverse spam crisis highlights an inherent flaw in the decentralized social networking model: Some people are bad at updating and maintaining their apps.
The “reply guy,” the internet-native take on Florida Man, has started to cause problems in the fediverse, and it comes down to ideology.
