A group to share articles, videos etc by media organizations on the subject of the Fediverse. Not personal blogs or such.

What would be useful: if you think the writer of an article missed something important or got something wrong, say so in the comments?

"I'm sure there'd be a German word for this mood where you're like, this is exciting, but something is deeply wrong here."

Ha, nice.

“Unangenehmungsfreude” was my German friend’s best shot. Translates roughly to “discomfort-joy”.

On the fediverse front, platforms as reasonably well defined spaces seems to me something that is both natural and useful but which is kinda missed or ignored by the ideals of the fediverse, in that they are likely to just happen anyway, and are happening, but kinda run counter to the ideal of everything federating everywhere.
