The fediverse has no central authority — which brings both challenges and opportunities for how it's governed. For Dot Social, @mike spoke with @kissane and @darius, two of the smartest people working on this, about the impact of the 2024 U.S. Presidential election on fediverse work, the "Xodus," what needs to be done next, and how to fund and sustain better networks for humans.

Read more about it in this blogpost.

Fediverse governance? Sounds like a whole lot of "we're not worthy" moments! Let's hope this podcast helps us build a better digital town square, like in "The West Wing," but without the drama. 🥂🤓

The Washington Post's non-endorsement in the U.S. election may have led to a mass exodus of subscribers (250,000 according to @npr), but that's been a boon to many other news organizations. Nieman Lab says The Guardian U.S. broke its single-day fundraising record, twice, while the Philadelphia Inquirer had its best ever week for new subscriptions. The Boston Globe says it also had a subscriber bump. Read more here.

It’s legal for prisoners to unionize — and it can be invaluable for incarcerated people who are often laboring in difficult conditions without pay. @TexasObserver’s Michelle Pitcher talked to Texans in and out of prisons who are helping empower prisoners to seek better conditions — including the right to be paid and to refuse work.

What does it mean to federate your Flipboard profile? In the simplest terms, it means that whatever you curate (aka share) on Flipboard will be "syndicated" out to the fediverse with no extra effort. @miaq tests it out and breaks it down.

@Flipboard Do you have "the other" Mike on the radar, @Mike Macgirvin 🖥️?

After all, that guy created over half a dozen federated projects, three of which are still active: Friendica from 2010, before Diaspora* even, Hubzilla which started life in 2012 and the actually nameless code repository commonly referred to as (streams) last year. He is behind three open federation protocols, DFRN, Zot and Nomad. And he invented nomadic identity as early as 2011.

Hi, great news, added to @podverse , I see in the web that the show has transcripts[1], but aren't available in the feed [2].

Does simplecast support the Podcasting 2.0 transcript tag in the feed? so we can have the transcript as subs in the app. That really helps for people that are non native English speakers, and for accessibility.

@Flipboard is there a whitelist on which servers it can login to? I can't get it to use my private instance, it doesn't even try to load the login screen. It just immediately says "We are unable to login to this mastodon instance. Please check that the provided hostname is correct."
