And if it's not "just" about the protocol: Who gets to decide about the definition? The people on #Mastodon? The ones on #Misskey? Or Lemmy? And why not the ones on #Threads, which could be soon the biggest part of it (the protocol, I mean)?

@jill @heiseBotti @fediverse

No, I mean following an account from #Peertube.

@jill @heiseBotti @fediverse

No, it isn't. But that doesn't make something part of the #Fediverse, does it? Try following someone with a Peertube-account for example. I dind't find a way, yet it's still a part of the #Fediverse..

I'd say: Fediverse = "connected via ActivityPub"

@vowe

Nein, das sind unterschiedliche Dinge. Du kannst von deinem Mastodon-Account kein Peertube-Video veröffentlichen, dazu brauchst du den Account. Aber du kannst damit interagieren (linken, in der Timeline gucken, per P2P teilen etc.) und das ist der Vorteil.
Wer vorwiegend Bilder postet, sollte dafür keinen Mastodon-Account nutzen, bei Kurznachrichten dagegen schon. Das Tolle ist, dass alle trotzdem verknüpft sind. Die Softwares sind aber untereinander nicht austauschbar.

@gon

I, for example, also count it as verified if an organization links to their account on their website...

@schnurrito

I know about @heiseonline 😊 That's us.

@vowe

Muss man überhaupt nicht, das ist tatsächlich der große Vorteil. Trotzdem gibt es Argumente dafür, zum Beispiel, weil verschiedene Dienste unterschiedliches ermöglichen: Zum Beispiel die hüpfenden Emojis von @heiseBotti

@MrKaplan

Thanks for the answer and the confirmation.

You're right about it being the default on #Mastodon, but it can be changed now. mastodon.social now sends a simple referrer and where's the harm on a bigger platform with many different users?

Here's a nice explanation for why it could help adoption and help with the visibility of a platform like lemmy.wotld without making users unsafe:

@woelkchen

Honestly, please tell me more about how I can commercialize this posts. This would make it easier for me to justify all I'm doing here out of interest and goodwill towards #Mastodon etc. Mainly in my freetime, if I may add... (I'm using this account, because this is the one for technical stuff and it has greater reach)

I didn't "mindlessly" tag the Lemmy community, but because I knew, that otherwise it would be very difficult to spread over there.

@woelkchen

Isn't this directly about the #Fediverse?

@woelkchen

This is our #instance on #Mastodon, not exactly the same like heise.de. But the same domain, that's right.

I don't argue, that you set your rules. But I still don't see, how this could be considered spam..

@woelkchen

Well, the ad for my employer (as an WP-link) came from you, didn't it?

This is not the first such post: I have a tool, that makes it simple to later visualize from where the reactions came.

I think it's quite interesting to compare the promise of the #Fediverse (reach so many different networks) with the reality (it's mainly #Mastodon). And this is a good way, I think. On the other hand, this posts do show, how far your content can go.

@caos @fediverse

Thx. I have no article planned, but it's good to know this, if something comes up.

Lemmy overtakes Mastodon!

(at least, when I treat Upvotes as Faves and count them directly in #Lemmy, as opposed to via the API from #Mastodon) Quite a lot of ifs, I know. But at least I found an aspect of the interactions with this post, that is not totally dominated by #Mastodon. 😅

See the post on Lemmy:
https://lemmy.world/post/18633925

SocialMedia #RedditAlternative #mbin

@fediverse

Even at the third attempt, it's almost only #Mastodon, from where I see shares. But that again just underscores the dominance of Mastodon. (To be clear, there are others, but I don't see them here)

I think, that's it for me with trying to get a post get a substancial amount of interactions from the rest of the #Fediverse. But that still were some fun little experiments showing the diversity of the software connected in the Fediverse.
Thanks everyone for participating!

@fediverse

@otter
For most parts of the #Fediverse you don't need to do something special. But it helps, i f you don't include special stuff like polls.
In addition, this account is bridged via #BridgyFed to #Bluesky, where one can interact with it, too.

I plan to analyse from which software #Mastodon sees the boosts, but it seems like that will look like:

@fediverse
Favs from #lemmy and #mbin aren't shown here on #Mastodon, right? And I think, it's not customary to boost or share in this RedditAlternatives. That's seems to be, why I still not see much from the activity happening over there. 😕

@otter
What exaclty?

@cron
What happened to feddit.de?
