    Dear Fedi friends,

    Next week I have the honor of doing a presentation advocating for the Fediverse in a really prestigious venue (I can't share more now, but I will after it takes place).

    I'm currently working on slides and I would love to hear testimonies from YOU. Why the Fediverse is so special to you in contrast to Big Tech platforms (bonus points if you speak French & can reply en français).

    I'll share a selection of your testimonies in my slideshow presentation.

    Merci beaucoup ❤️

        @_elena sorry my French is still très nul (working on it), but I would like to say;

        The Fediverse is a special place due to it's decentralized nature, hosted by a kind network of volunteers instead of a centralized big tech company. It brings together a broad range of people that feel safe to post here.

        (I shouldn't type while walking)

            @_elena J'aime le fédiverse parce qu'il ne peut pas être acheté, parce qu'il n'est pas américain, et parce que les gens l'utilisent surtout pour parler de ce qu'ils aiment faire, pas pour partager à outrance de l'outrage issu des news.

                @_elena The Fediverse is a special place where I've been able to meet old and new friends, and where you can follow the most uplifting hashtags while learning how to run your own servers and data 🙂

                    @_elena My take:

                    Community is built by people *for people*, not by companies for profit. The fediverse attracts those who are looking for that sense of community online and many find it in the fediverse.

                    🌈

                          Je suis un vieux bonhomme qui a découvert Internet avec le "mail" et "usenet" à l'époque où l'informatique était totalement libre : il "suffisait" d'acheter un ordinateur et un compilateur. Certes,
                          c'était onéreux. Mais même les produits Microsoft et Apple étaient, de ce point de vue, libres.

                          Je n'ai jamais eu besoin des réseaux propriétaires sur lesquels je n'ai pas de compte.

                          J'utilise un peu - beaucoup trop ? 🤔 - Mastodon et Matrix.

                            Le fediverse est centré sur les gens, pas sur leur réputation ou leur notoriété. On y discute, on y fait pas du marketing.
                            On y rencontre véritablement des etres humains, on n'interargit pas juste avec des community managers.

                              it feels #human scale - from human beings, for human beings.

                                @_elena it just feels...organic and non-toxic. As if it was mostly people interacting non-algorythmically with other people. Humane, is the word, i think. Also, im free to up and leave whenever. Its important to have some doors open, even if one doesnt plan to go through them

                                      Le fediverse est centré sur les gens, pas sur leur réputation ou leur notoriété. On y discute, on y fait pas du marketing.
                                      On y rencontre véritablement des etres humains, on n'interargit pas juste avec des community managers.

                                        Je suis un vieux bonhomme qui a découvert Internet avec le "mail" et "usenet" à l'époque où l'informatique était totalement libre : il "suffisait" d'acheter un ordinateur et un compilateur. Certes,
                                        c'était onéreux. Mais même les produits Microsoft et Apple étaient, de ce point de vue, libres.

                                        Je n'ai jamais eu besoin des réseaux propriétaires sur lesquels je n'ai pas de compte.

                                        J'utilise un peu - beaucoup trop ? 🤔 - Mastodon et Matrix.

                                        Matrix : parce qu'il me permet de retrouver le même type de relations que Usenet : des communautés de passionnés d'un sujet.

                                        Mastodon, à l'origine pour la même raison que Matrix (ce qui est une erreur). À l'usage, cet outil permet des rencontres fortuites. Par exemple vous. Au fil du temps, je suis un petit groupe de personne dont je partage les intérêts. Mais pas toujours les opinions : il s'en suit des débats toujours courtois. Et quand ils ne le sont pas, je masque et j’oublie.

                                          Dear Fedi friends,

                                          Next week I have the honor of doing a presentation advocating for the Fediverse in a really prestigious venue (I can't share more now, but I will after it takes place).

                                          I'm currently working on slides and I would love to hear testimonies from YOU. Why the Fediverse is so special to you in contrast to Big Tech platforms (bonus points if you speak French & can reply en français).

                                          I'll share a selection of your testimonies in my slideshow presentation.

                                          Merci beaucoup ❤️

                                          @_elena J'apprécie de ne pas me faire asséner se publicités à tout bout de champs, et de savoir que l'ordre des publications n'est pas manipulé dans le but de me rendre accro. Dans un climat géopolitique aussi instable qu'il est démoralisant, un réseau social qui n'encourage pas les mini-infos décontextualisées, polarisantes et souvent fausses est une panacée. Je peux décrocher quand je veux.
                                          Y'a pas tout le monde ? C'est plus lent ? Y'a peu de vidéos ? Tant mieux, tant mieux, et tant mieux.
