    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.

    Hi Spencer, welcome 👋

    If you want an easy-to-understand guide to how this place works, have a look at the website https://fedi.tips (especially the section marked "Quick Start").

    Please feel free to ask if you want help with anything specific, I am trying to provide unofficial tech support on here 🙂

            @spencexyz Tip one: edit your post and make that url clickable, I believe you need https: and two slashes, like: https://www.gobikecamping.com

              @spencexyz bicycles and data go with the fediverse the same way that cheese and crackers go with port, or music goes with dancing. They were made for each other.

                    @spencexyz @clew it seems, there is a federated thing to be the successor of komoot and strava allready in the making. Maybe you can/like/want to contribute to that project?

                    @Reinald @clew I've seen some open source strava clones. Is there a federated one that people are starting to use? I'd love to contribute.

                    Is there a website that shows federated projects that people are building?

                      @NotYours there isn't any data right now for the EU, just because no one has added any.

                      I've been focused on US and Canada right now since that's what I know and have experience with. I hope to expand to the EU as I run out of data to add in the US and start seeking out stuff for the EU.

                                      @clew right now it refers to content you put online, like photos and posts you make about your long distance bicycle adventures.

                                      long term, I'd love to see a federated version of Strava. every year they cut down their api access further and further. but it's our data and we should be able to share with any external apps we want.

                                      I'm trying to figure out how I can use the tools I'm building to expose more cyclists to the fediverse and help fuel that demand.

                                      @spencexyz @clew This sounds related to what https://pixelfed.org/ does

                                      (p.s. Welcome! Delighted to see more bikers on here)

                                        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.
