Looks like it’s for feeds and the fediverse
Isn’t this what Friendica/Hubzilla does?
I don’t write you a separate kind of email because you’re on Gmail, right?
Dude gets it.
I also think the term Fediverse is to esoteric and Social web is perfect for the masses.
It’s a term for insiders. My mother will never talk about “the fediverse.”
The “Open Social Web” is a much better term. It tells you everything you need to know.
A little too long and generic. I think Fediverse is fine as long as we treat it as a name and don’t force people to necessarily understand what it means. People understand names, they’re the most human thing there is
Like the Internet.
It just sounds really dumb. The word “federation” was right there.
Oh, man, I hadn’t heard the “it’s like email” nonsense since I stopped daily driving Mastodon. Real nostalgia going on here.
This is exactly what we need to get the masses off corporate social media sites.
An app that shows content from across social services has more appeal than being on just bluesky or insta.
I JUST foung out about this, and was about to post this exact same thing. Except I was debating whether to post the Daily Tech News Show episode with timestamp, or if I should post the Engadget article I found.
AAAHHH!!! IT MAKES ME EXCITED!!!
Please let this come to Android!!! AND!!! The Flipboard company itself is now part of the Fediverse! So this app may end up being the most complete way to browse and experience PeerTube. I’ve tried 3 different times now to browse Peertube, and 3 different times I’ve gotten WILDLY different experiences. Part of the problem is I don’t have a peertube account. I don’t know which instance to sign up on.
But with an app like this, I could sign up somewhere, and just pull all the feeds of my own interest into ME. I could search all the instances for my own interests, instead of searching for instances, and hoping there’s something on that instance that matches my interests.
I’ve been in a tech mood lately. I’ve frankensteined the hell out of my PC.
The same Flipboard that was forced on so many Samsung phone owners? Fuuuck that. I literally rooted my phone to get rid of that shit.
Funny enough, I loved that app, and use it for news rather than Google news
One app to rule them all? Dont we need 1 account to rule them all first?
If this works, and works well, it could be a game changer for decentralized platforms.
Surf app is interesting.
Seems like grayjay but with more variety and based on fediverse
It has Bluesky support. Neat!
Found it mostly shares stories behind a paywall. Pass.
