@sl007 btw there's a fediverse channel on discord, people are interested and curious about ActivityPub, I think you might want to join

@grishka
Yes.
Currently it is very hard for me to focus cause of the Afghanistan Situation.
Maybe you can post the channel on socialhub if it's not already mentioned.

@grishka @sl007 glad you found the channel! I was the one who requested it from the mods. They had set up the discord with ONLY a mastodon channel and no fediverse one...

@liaizon @sl007 LOL. I mean some people think that Smithereen is a reskin of Mastodon... And get very surprised when they learn that it's not. We might need to work on educating people better.

@grishka @sl007 The fact that its 2021 and we still dont really have a nice intro website that describes the fediverse as a whole ecosystem is quite sad

@liaizon @sl007 there were multiple attempts at making one, latest being @dansup's fedidb.org but it's targeted more towards developers than end users. There's also fediverse.party.

@grishka @sl007 @dansup I know all these attempts. Fediverse.party I have helped with a bit here and there. But none of these are very welcoming to people unfamiliar with the space entirely. I guess the closest thing I can think of in this nature is the animated What is Mastodon video from a few years ago that is geared first towards explaining what federation *is*

@liaizon @sl007 @dansup yeah I often find myself sending that video to people who are new to this concept

Yes. See the minutes with the EU Tech Lead with impressions from talks with 6 MEPs before:
“It really seems to be a common misconception that mastodon is an equivalent of ActivityPub and so we should work more towards presenting the whole diversity of ActivityPub software, projects and the spritely future.”
