Some talks I've given on fediverse stuff over the years:

Social Solutions to Social Networking, about cool stuff you can do when you're not scaling a huge platform - videos.theconference.se/darius

Trust is Not Harmful, about what we mean when we talk about trust and "trustless" on fediverse vs web3 - vimeo.com/354276253

Squishy Amoeba-Like Objects, about topology of federated communities - youtube.com/watch?v=qxBu5Tktm1

The first video is probably the most "intro for a general audience" of the three.

😂 a very perfect explanation for a lot of situations:

“Friend Camp as a website lives on a server, it's a computer, which means it's a piece of metal with etchings on it, and you put electrons in it, and electrons all move around, and it's connected to the internet through, you know, the phone, or whatever, I don't know.” —@darius 👏

@darius I’m standing right behind you standing by it, I wish I had said it 🤗!

It’s kind of the antithesis of your talk but, one of my favorite things about my day-job is I make software for 50 coworkers. We’re never going to have thousands of users/coworkers, as the CTO is fond of saying. I can call/walk/fly to help someone having even a small problem. I can do a short binary search through the user base to get a good sense of the feeling about a feature I’m brewing.

There’s a lot of value in not-scaling tech-wise. It’s… fun and I hope more devs get to try it.
