Oh, it's also #FediforumFriday which reminds me that folks should check out talks from #Fedicon a couple of weekends ago! and also, get tickets for the next #Fediforum coming up in October. https://fediforum.org/news/2025-08-06-fediforum-fall-announced/

Choose Mastodon. Choose the Fediverse.
Choose curiosity over virality. Boost because you care. Follow because you’re interested. Be niche. Be human.
Choose Freedom.

The recordings of the keynotes, and the movie premiere, from FediForum June 2025 are now online.
You can find them from https://fediforum.org/, our PeerTube https://spectra.video/@fediforum and YouTube https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlI78hhgYh_oSg8Wws2m66YuRObWa7lJf channels.
For another #FediforumFriday I want to give a shout-out to a nice tool for creating threads on Mastodon - Splinter https://splinter.hastily.cc/
I used this yesterday for the first time, to post a series of updates about the videos from PublicSpaces last week. Useful stuff, and added to my list of power tools.
Sneaking in a quick #FediforumFriday post! I’m really interested in https://wanderer.to/ which is a trails database / app that federates. Would be great to have them demo at a future #Fediforum 🤞🏻
My #FediforumFriday update this week is that I've been tinkering around at the MVP end of the fediverse, trying out projects like #snac (and also, honk). I really need to write some of these experiences down somewhere! Also, preparing for my talk at #FrOSCON next weekend.
What are you looking at that's interesting and #fediverse-related right now?
What are the most important issues and discussions about the Open Social Web we need to have this late summer and fall?

If you've been to #FediForum, and have something nice to say about how it was, we'd love to hear about it.
We have been redesigning FediForum.org, and one thing people keep telling us is that it needs to show quotes from attendees! Like you!
So send quotes our way! Thank you!!!
