    Trying out the fediverse for the first time today. I've been reading a lot about it, now it's time to figure out how it works and build an internet home here.

    My goal is to figure out how I can bring https://gobikecamping.com/ into the fediverse and help people who love bike touring own their data and escape the metaverse.

      @spencexyz I recommend following the hashtag #BikeTooter for more bike-minded friends

              @spencexyz Looks like you have a good amount of resources shared in the comments already.
              I might add to check your local library for a copy of this book. If not, ask them to acquire it!

                  @spencexyz there are a ton of biking tooters here! I hope you make a good place for yourself!

                  Remember, block liberally, alt-text your photos, and there's no algorithm (besides "reverse-chronogical"), so you gotta chase your own engagement. Let it grow slowly, post regularly, your network will grow nice.

                  Cheers!

                      @spencexyz Sounds like you might like #BikeNite (and you can follow hashtags, if you didn't already know that)

                          @spencexyz Yes--Hashtags are essential for finding the content and people you want in the Fediverse. And I thought @smellsofbikes might have noticed this thread by now, but I guess not so I'll tag him. This is right up his alley.

                            @spencexyz @StaceyCornelius #bikenite runs every Friday from 7-8pm (eastern time) though a lot of the folks are based in CA (4-5pm their time)

                            @ascentale hosts, and gives 8 prompts each week that you can respond to in real time, or any time at your convenience

                            Sometimes it gets super-geeky, and sometimes it’s light-hearted, but your content would be very welcome!

                              I bet you can find other bike enthusiasts under #biking or #bikes or something similar.

                                @spencexyz Welcome! My best advice is to follow hashtags and to follow liberally. You can always unfollow if someone isn’t a good fit. Quality conversations are the goal, not the number of followers or mentions.

                                Welcome!

                                        Trying out the fediverse for the first time today. I've been reading a lot about it, now it's time to figure out how it works and build an internet home here.

                                        My goal is to figure out how I can bring https://gobikecamping.com/ into the fediverse and help people who love bike touring own their data and escape the metaverse.

                                        @spencexyz Welcome. Map looks good but also looks like it covers USA only? Good to see another bike person, you're gonna find a lot of people alike on fedi 👍

                                          @spencexyz Yes--Hashtags are essential for finding the content and people you want in the Fediverse. And I thought @smellsofbikes might have noticed this thread by now, but I guess not so I'll tag him. This is right up his alley.

                                          @claralistensprechen3rd @spencexyz I've seen other people on here who have rolled their own persona versions of Strava, but I haven't previously seen anyone doing a bike equivalent of open street maps. It'd sure be nice.
