#decentalized — Public Fediverse posts

After the recent Discord incident, I was thinking, why decentralised alternatives aren't more popular? What did Discord do that Matrix, for example, couldn't?

Looks fab!

Concerned #accessibility comes after all being worked on now.

I ❤️ #monetization options are planned. Concerned "ad free" options imply ads are planned as part of the roadmap?

Absence of #AI is refreshing!

Is #UnifiedPush part of "push notifications", or just feeding everything via #Google / #Apple? (cue usual: "They're encrypted. Don't ask whether metasdata / future decryption / #MobileLinux matter" discussion)

Project Moebius (#decentalized?), better editing & live streaming look super cool! ❤️

Finally, a regular reminder to please avoid creating a digital 1% elite by focusing "For you" on relevance not rolling-snowball-boosting of already popular accounts/content.

Thanks for all your amazing hard work! 💕 You ROCK!

In one media article after another we read about how Threads and Bluesky are "decentralized social media platforms." Guess what, you are not "decentralized" if you only have one "centralized" server.

Can we please stop giving #Bluesky and #Threads #Meta credit for being #decentalized platforms when all they have done is announce the intention to actually someday be decentralized. Both are currently entirely #centralized corporate platforms.

Lots of exciting developments happening @ fleek.xyz! They are moving their #IPFS storage from #AWS/#DigitalOcean to #Filecoin/#ARWeave! So apps hosted on #Fleek are truly #decentalized!

IMO the greatest barrier to all of the #decentalized platforms I use is discovery. #mastodon Lbry.tv matrix.org rss etc etc. How do I find new people to follow or new content I might like. As a #ML engineer by day I feel like I need to pick up the fight on creating #FOSS sdks for recommendations and curation that also keep all data client side or do distributed learning on users local data. Should I do a full blog post to flush out this idea more?

#JayGraber wrote a good introductory post to some of the challenges of building #decentalized #SocialMedia apps, and how these differ between federated and P2P projects:
