Ok so are all you @neilhimself fans about ready for what I have coming online in the next week or so? Monies raised as always will go to non referral foodbanks and wholly volunteer led charities GET READY it’s coming …
@fediverse Let's face it. When talking about the Fediverse, it is very hard to sell interoperability between different types of instances as a major advantage.
@RookieNerd I think most instances have there place when it comes to what users may want there user experience to be like;
Mastodon - a more Twitter / X like experience where you can microblog
PixelFed - a more Instagram like experience where you can share Images without the META data collection
Lemmy - more towards a Reddit like experience
ext.
The good part of the Fediverse is that we can join together through different parts and interact from our own instances (including ones we run ourselves). The main reasons people seem to not want to move over is because they are used to the social media they are already one, the main people they follow don't want to move across and Instances are somewhat confusing at first.
My thoughts are that if META does actually make Threads federate then it will not only open people's mind a bit more when it comes to the Fediverse but maybe other social media's will follow including METAs Instagram and Facebook making it so you no longer have to worry if you are on 'X' website / app instead you just ask for there username and you can chat and see there posts.
There are almost as many clients for each of #Pixelfeed, #Mastedon, #PeerTube, and the rest of the #Fediverse, for a single platform.
Switch platforms, and discover a plethora of other clients.
@AlexSanterne@StayGrounded_net Congratulations! I made the same decision 5 years ago, after returning to Germany from the US. Feels good, doesn't it? Even if it's sometimes annoying and complicated to get places, I've found that one always gets there, somehow.
Things October 31 is besides #Halloween: #Reformation Day, celebrating the date in 1517 when Martin #Luther nailed his 95 theses to a church door in Wittenberg--or did he?
Modern scholarship long tended to dismiss the episode as fictional, citing lack of contemporary evidence. 1/n
Things October 31 is besides #Halloween: #Reformation Day, celebrating the date in 1517 when Martin #Luther nailed his 95 theses to a church door in Wittenberg--or did he?
In 2018, 2 historians from the historical Luther sites set forth the case for the authenticity of the tradition that he nailed the 95 theses to the church door OTD 1517:

Book historian Andrew Pettegree, who accepts the tradition, makes the key points in Brand Luther (2017):
Even Luther did not see the Theses as extraordinary
HAPPY HALLOWEEN... AND (AUDIO)BOOK BIRTHDAY TO #CHAMELEONMOON!
Narrated by the incredible Kyle Rocco East (and me!) and containing two fully produced original songs, my first published book is now my first published #audiobook!
I can't even tell you how happy and excited (and tired) I am, but it's here! You can listen to all its entire-cast-of-queer-superheroes-surviving-fiery-dystopia-through-rebellious-hope-love-and-rock'nroll right now, with your ears!
To my incredible Kickstarter backers, and everyone here, thank you so, so much for following me on this incredible journey!
(Indie Creator Note: I am going to be QUITE shameless about promoting this for the next few days, and would ask very humbly that if you're reading this, Mega Please, Boost! No algorithm here, so we gotta be it for each other! <3)
I’m pretty well-versed in Star Trek lore, but it’s always nice to get another perspective. After reading the article I had a brain storm. Lucile Ball was [amazingly enough] a big wheel at Desilu and pushed for the second pilot. She must have liked the first one because it dared to have a smart woman in a position of power. I’m sure many other people have had that notion, and I think it’s funny that it took me so long to see the obvious.
Could someone please help me get a safe home?🏳️⚧️🤞🏼
Please friends, I need everyone's help to be able to get a new safe home. I have been outside for many days, I am in danger of being beaten again and I have not been able to eat well for days. The little I have received is to be able to sleep in a hotel. Please, if you have something extra don't hesitate to donate🙏🏼💔 #MutualAid#TransCrowdfund#trans@mutualaid
