At FediCon someone was like "you don't look like your photo". I took off my glasses and then they were like "wow, it is you". Cue my partner saying "he uses tons of filters too" lmao, it be your own people sometimes 😅 Protip: don't tell people your partner uses a filter, or leave the partner at home #filtersDontNeedResponsibleDisclosure

PRISMO dot ZIP Imagine a federated reddit, but with a pretty UI that normal people would actually use @mbajur@mastodon.social has revived his keystone project from 2018. I'd link to the server, but that causes 504 errors. My bad, sorry for the big **** problems 😅

I will post my FediCon slides later this week, but I'm proud that I ignored my partners advice about putting memes into my talk to get laughs. I kept it professional, and used Loops itself to make jokes, nothing gets a crowd more pumped than legal threats and VC jokes! "This room is legally required to cheer for that." Why do you think I was recording? #DanSupsBasilisk

My advice to new activitypub devs: - be bold: ship what big tech won't. - consent first: opt in, never opt out. - keep evolving: your v1 federation code will be wrong, and that's fine. - federate the future: interop over lock in, every time. 8 years in and I still come back to these. #activityPub #fediverse #socialWeb #builders

I can sometimes obsess over the tiniest details, because attention to detail matters. My most recent example: Loops DMs don't need to render the mentions in the message bubble. It just looks better without them. They do provide important context sometimes, so they are available when you need them, with a tooltip popover. No detail is too small when you put the user experience first. 🚀 Before vs After #Loops #LoopsDev #UX

ICYMI: The fediverse has an onboarding tool to help people find the ideal platform. It does need work though, it's powered by FediDB and is open source. Interested in helping?

When I first announced Loops, I never expected 20,000 people to sign up in the first few months. At the same time, Pixelfed doubled from 200,000 users to over 400,000 users in ONE WEEK, mostly on pixelfed.social Combined with the launches of the official Pixelfed Android/iOS app and the launch of our Kickstarter, I had to focus on Pixelfed. Only to get criticized that Loops wasn't open source or federated So I shipped it, and now its federated and open source! https://joinloops.org #Loo...

RE: https://social.treehouse.systems/@ariadne/117061324704076399 I mean, I've been advocating for the fediverse with developers since starting https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks, https://fedidb.com and https://pubkit.net Also co-founding https://litepub.social and inspiring https://fedicon.ca Now with my role in the Sovereign Tech Standards Cohort, I am able to help evolve the ActivityPub standard as an implementor of two popular projects (@pixelfed@mastodon.social and @joinloops@mastodo...

Flagship fediverse servers are fundamental to the growth of our network. They don't shutdown without notice, and generally are more trusted and actively moderated and updated. That being said, as a dev/admin of two flagship servers, it's our responsibility to build and support FULL account migration to other servers, and with LOLA, I'm confident we can do this right. https://swicg.github.io/activitypub-data-portability/lola #Flagship #Loops #Pixelfed #Onboarding #LOLA

I just suggested to the @Mastodon@mastodon.social team to implement Sign in with Apple/Google in their official mobile app. I think it would make a huge difference. Yes, it would centralize the fediverse more, but it would also bring a whole diverse new crowd here, to make a home on the most trusted and stable Mastodon server. Once they discover the fediverse, they could migrate to another server that better suits them. Only a matter of time, mark my words. 🚀 #Loops #Mastodon #SignInWithAp...

In a perfect world, we wouldn't have to rely on Sign in with Apple or Google. Everyone would know about open source, the social web and data privacy. We need to stop dreaming, and leverage the tools available to really make a difference. Data portability via LOLA is crucial as well, enabling people to migrate to other servers after they get comfortable with federation and everything it entails. https://swicg.github.io/activitypub-data-portability/lola

My favourite slide from my FediCon talk about Loops was the very last one I added at 3am the night before my talk. "Someone hears about a thing, they go to sign up, and the first screen asks them to choose a server. And they don't know what a server is. They don't know what any of these words mean, and they've now been asked to make an infrastructure decision before they've seen a single video. Most of them just leave" #Loops #FediCon

RE: https://fosstodon.org/@Gina/117075872258601059 The fediverse is full of so many talented and amazing people, and when we land our dream jobs, it really shows how powerful the fediverse and open social web really is! So proud of @Gina@fosstodon.org! I recently joined @sovtechfund@mastodon.social Standards Cohort, and I must say, I feel really fortunate for their support and the opportunity to improve ActivityPub at the standards level 🚀

Adding MLS/e2ee support to Loops will require some significant client side work, which is fine, but in the short term I will add a warning modal when authoring new Direct Messages or on the first conversation view, warning that communications are not encrypted and not to share any sensitive details through this channel. @ariadne@social.treehouse.systems do you have any short term suggestions on how to improve this before MLS is shipped?
