Sub.club is here to help the fediverse make money.

From @theverge: "The idea is that this will let users on ActivityPub-based platforms like Mastodon easily offer paid subscriptions and premium content while taking a 6 percent cut in addition to payment processing fees. It could solve a big problem with the fediverse right now: it’s not easy to make a living on it unless you direct your followers back to existing platforms like Patreon."

It’s a sad fact that a lot of online content lives and dies by Google’s algorithm. The only problem is, apart from a few vague pointers from Google every now and then, how exactly pages are ranked is actually sort of a mystery.

However, an explosive leak of thousands of pages of internal documents has now lifted the lid on how Search really works, and, as @theverge reports, it seems Google might not have been entirely truthful about it all along. Here’s more.

@TechDesk

The article (quite rightly) doesn't specify the source of the leak, and it also doesn't say how old the documents are. I get the impression that Google tweaks its search algorithm every few days. Could the age of the document explain some of the differences between what Google claims now and what the document says?

ROFL!

That's a good one. I had quite a laugh about it. Thanks.

Why is everyone talking about the fediverse? Mashable's Christianna Silva explains the reason behind Meta's interest, the future of social media and how that will change the way online creators reach their audiences.

@TechDesk it's still grounded in the idea that federation has some metric of "success" it needs to meet, and that this involves pandering to "influencers".

Why are you tracking everyone who reads this article, btw?
