    @_elena We don't know each other, but I speak french!

    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.

          @_elena I have been in the fediverse for only a few months, and I can tell you, my experience has been way better than in any other social network, there is a feeling of getting connected with real people with real, people who share real and honest opinions, in contrast with the algorithm drive comments/posts from big tech networks, is actually refreshing.

            @_elena J'aime le fediverse parce que, contrairement aux plateformes propriétaires, je peux y parler aussi bien de mon travail que de sujets qui n'ont rien à voir, sans me soucier de ce que pensera l'algorithme. Je peux discuter avec des gens qui ont des centres d'intérêt très différents. 😊
            Si jamais ça t'est utile, j'ai écrit mes ressentis sur mon blog : https://www.aemarielle.com/mastodon-ressenti/

                  Un bel exemple de la convivialité de Mastodon n'est-il pas la belle aventure de Bubulle-Bis ?

                  Je suis de longue date un zélateur des logiciels libres.
                  De plus, même si ce n'est pas un critère premier, la confidentialité de ces réseaux est importante.

                    @_elena oh very very good luck to you! you will ace this. I've seen you present and you're so clear and confident. they are lucky to have you.

                    (in my terrible French my testimony is that aux autres résaux sociaux je lis, je vois des choses, de temps en temps j'écrit. c'est bon mais ce ne change rien dans ma vie. chez mastodon j'APPRENDS. quand je le ferme j'ai appris des novelles choses et vu des liens nouveaux entre les choses que j'ai su.)

                      @_elena @shanselman once written "Own your words!", so I'm owning mine, have my space for social contacts not governed by people doing it for profit at all. That feels great! We have a very nice #Czech community around and that's all I need for now.

                        @_elena I have grown up on the countryside and always felt very isolated. I thought there is nobody else like me out there. Until I have found the Fediverse where I instantly felt home. Finally, I was able to share my interests and felt understood. The Fediverse has helped me to become the person, I am today.

                          I like that, on Fedi, I generally don’t have to worry about being attacked; and I can freely use words like “albeit,” or “clusterfuck.”

                            @_elena Being in the Fediverse has really brought the “social” part of social media back for me. I’m not being gamed for engagement by a corporate company that wants to feed off my emotions, I can just interact with people online again, like how it used to be… like how it should be!

                              @mariafarrell thank you Maria, it means so much coming from you ❤️ and I completely agree with you re: learning here.

                              I once replied to someone (toot gone bc of autodelete sadly): "14 years on Big Tech platforms and I learned nothing. 4 years on the Fediverse and I feel like MacGyver" 😆

                                  @_elena I have grown up on the countryside and always felt very isolated. I thought there is nobody else like me out there. Until I have found the Fediverse where I instantly felt home. Finally, I was able to share my interests and felt understood. The Fediverse has helped me to become the person, I am today.

                                    @_elena Being in the Fediverse has really brought the “social” part of social media back for me. I’m not being gamed for engagement by a corporate company that wants to feed off my emotions, I can just interact with people online again, like how it used to be… like how it should be!

                                        @mariafarrell thank you Maria, it means so much coming from you ❤️ and I completely agree with you re: learning here.

                                        I once replied to someone (toot gone bc of autodelete sadly): "14 years on Big Tech platforms and I learned nothing. 4 years on the Fediverse and I feel like MacGyver" 😆

                                          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 Je suis européenne, et je n'ai aucune intention de créer du contenu ni de contribuer à remplir les poches d'oligarques étrangers qui veulent détruire notre Union. Je suis très reconnaissante envers toutes les personnes qui consacrent souvent du temps, des efforts et de l'argent à titre bénévole pour coder et modérer un réseau social européen. Cela ne devrait pas être un fardeau qu'elles portent seules.
