@elgg@indieweb.social Well, we did have @ben@werd.social give a keynote at #FediForum last year! :-) Consider coming to a future FediForum and giving a demo to get more exposure in this community. @silverpill@mitra.social @julian @fedimtl @ozoned @reiver@mastodon.social @johannab@cosocial.ca @paige@masto.canadiancivil.com @mayel

One can learn many things at #FediForum. For example, about Rebollita, a soup from Tuscany, which is apparently @ivan's favorite food. Does that recipe sound about right? https://www.themediterraneandish.com/ribollita-recipe/

I was blown away by the intensity and quality of the follow-up discussion on "Growing the Open Social Web" at a #FediForum session yesterday. And the sheer number of people who showed up! Somehow this must be an important topic to a lot of people!! 😜 We will continue this discussion probably more regularly than twice a year at the regular FediForum. #FediForumFriday

I have a #FediForumFriday follow up question about the demo that EU-Haul demo (I can't remember who did it, sorry!) and Bsky: Can I use my bridged Bsky account (as in the one @anewsocial@mastodon.social creates when you bridge from Mastodon) and move that to an EU based Bsky server, and the bridge still work? If no, is that in the works? #FediForum

Thank you so much again to @j12t@j12t.social @anca@mastodon.xyz for a wonderful Fediforum. I'm putting this in writing. As I said at FediForum, I appreciate y'all so much that if I ever have another child I promise we'll name them after y'all. JohAnca. I expect they'll one day marry John Mastodon and bring about the golden age of the internet. #fediForum #fediforum2026 #john Mastodon #JohAnca

my whiplash/conflicting two big takeaways from #fediForum #1 - SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY but #2 - goddamit, we need to figure out funding these things (possibly including me? at least a bit).

@box464@mastodon.social oooh, that's intriguing. NOstr without knowing it's nostr I mean, though also "vintage vines". Some of the #fediForum stuff that just wrapped was brushing up against the idea that the TECH needs to be a little less visible to the human, so they can roll on in without a barrier. Signin' in!

And this was it for FediForum Day 3, and all of FediForum Spring 2026. Thanks to everybody who came, who demo'd, who presented, and the wonderful, and wonderfully intense and respectful and constructive discussions about all aspects of the Open Social Web that happened over the past three half-days. As usual, there is so much left to discuss! But don't worry, there will be a next #FediForum. If you want to be notified when registration opens, leave your info here: https://apps.fediforum.org/nextcloud/apps/forms/s/ci4R7TZnNEzDiXHDyFPQcM2G

Combining groups and payments into a fedi-forward service for content creators

<p>Unfortunately I was only able to join for the third and last day of FediForum, but the energy was quite strong even then!</p> <p>There were some interesting discussions with <a href="https://btfree.social/pub/actors/ozoned">@<bdi>ozoned@btfree.social</bdi></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/@reiver">@<bdi>reiver@mastodon.social</bdi></a> and others (<a href="https://cosocial.ca/@johannab">@<bdi>johannab@cosocial.ca</bdi></a>, <a href="https://j12t.social/@j12t">@<bdi>j12t@j12t.social</bdi></a>, etc) about fediverse payments and growing the open social web — this spanned two session slots, actually!</p> <p>One thing that came out strongly was the need for content creators to get paid. This <em>directly</em> echoes <a href="https://masto.canadiancivil.com/@paige">@<bdi>paige@masto.canadiancivil.com</bdi></a>'s talk from <a href="https://activitypub.space/category/22/fedimtl">@<bdi>fedimtl</bdi></a> earlier this year.

The other half was reflecting on the lack of appropriate value-adds for donators, such as private groups. We have all of these things, but separately. Perhaps combining them into an easy-to-use service is the secret sauce that will open up the fediverse to content creators.[...] There is work with the Interledger Foundation (@Jeremiah@alpaca.gold) to make the financial side happen. There's ongoing work with CrowdBucks (@reiver@mastodon.social) to connect fediverse accounts with payment gateways. On the threadiverse side, each of us (NodeBB, Lemmy, Piefed) have support for private groups, but not federated private groups. This might be an opportunity for the threadiverse implementors to work together (especially with @mayel@bonfire.cafe and the rest of the SWICG Groups Task Force (@groups)) to bring federate private groups out of the realm of theoretical possibility and into reality.

The hash-tag to talk about Fediverse Payments is: #AssetFlow (It also includes transferring things that are non-money, too. Thus the generic name.) #FediForum #FediForum2026

Want to participate in testing and rolling out Mastodon 5.0? There are some great new features coming, and you can see them and test them out during Mastodon Discovery Week, May 11-15. It's online, and therefore all who can internet may participate. Heard it at #FediForum! https://app.hi.events/event/7599/mastodon-discovery-week-2026

@j12t@j12t.social #Fediforum has become a load bearing part of the developer and open social web community. We are lucky it is hear and you Johaness and all the organizers behind it a big debt. I've been sick with a cold this week, but happy to follow along and boost things virtually!

FediForum Number 7 Is Happening And It Makes Me Happy The 7th FediForum is happening right now (yesterday, today, and tomorrow). There are two a year and I love going to them. You can follow along using the hashtag #FediForum. Most of the talks are a bit above my pay-grade, but I always learn something or get to try a new open source/open web technology. I also get to see many of my buddies on the open social web (AT Proto/Bluesky and ActivityPub) over video from across the web and engage with them all in real time. The discussions are top notch and there is even a sense of a hallway chat area in the online software Johannes and Anca (the organizers) use. They also use collaborative note taking, so even though the video/recordings are non-existent, there are great notes collaboratively made and later posted on the FediForum.org site after the event. If you get a chance to make a FediForum, you really should attend. The tickets are affordable and the community is so nice! #activitypub #atProtocol #Community #fediforum #fediverse #openSocialWeb #openSource

I am having a lot of fun in #FediForum sessions this time. That's because we now have a real community here, built over some years, people who now know each other, have good personal relationships so there is a lot of banter in the middle of all the high-bandwidth, high-competence discussion. It's a great combination.
