In the words of an attendee at the last #FediForum :
"The Fediverse ... it's actually happening!"
Today's evidence: the president of the United States has entered the Fediverse.

Extra thanks to @deadsuperhero who volunteered to host the #FediForum demos on his #peertube instance and set it up.
The videos from the previous events are now on his instance as well. We also have updated the links on fediforum.org

The demo recordings from last week's #FediForum are now also on #peertube.

If anybody ever asks you: why should anybody care about a decentralized Twitter? Point them to these videos, because there's so much innovation there that goes miles beyond just microblogging, and it's still early days.
Thanks to all the innovators out there, and thanks to the developers who came to FediForum to show off their creations in these demos.
The session notes from the March 2024 #FediForum, and (almost) all demo videos are now on-line.
Lots and lots of good stuff there. Whether you attended FediForum or not, happy reading!
(The PeerTube version of the demos is still stuck in a moderation queue. Will add links once available.)
FediForum has made it into a bunch of publications this week. Most focus on the demo at FediForum where Meta's @pcottle showed off Threads' #Fediverse integration publicly for the first time, but there's lots of good stuff talking about FediForum itself, too.
