    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 Le protocole « Activity Pub » permet de dépasser les limites des différents services et plateformes. C'est ce qu'il y a de plus génial dans le Fediverse.

          Car le problème majeur auquel le monde est confronté aujourd'hui réside précisément dans la manière dont les médias — qu'ils soient sociaux ou traditionnels — se mettent désormais au service d'un axe politique alliant ploutocratie et intolérance.

            @_elena and on the puritan tangent - our bodies are not automatically considered offensive, even if there is an agreed upon decorum to use content warnings if you want to display it and I don’t want to be a spectator

              @_elena Fediverse allows me to select/follow/ignore what I want, 24/7. This syncs up with how I navigate the rest of the universe, which is the only algorithm I care about.

                @_elena this instance has been a huge boon to my social and mental health. finding local, niche, topical instances enables busy adults to find friends and socialize in ways that aren't easy on conventional social media

                    @_elena il y a quelques années, j’ai “jeté une bouteille à la mer” pour essayer de trouver une location longue durée de vélo à Paris. Je ne voulais pas utiliser de velib pendant tout mon séjour.

                    Quelqu’un sur le fedi a lu mon message et m’a prêté son vélo pendant tout mon séjour ! C’était super. Ça m’a permis de découvrir un nouveau Paris, de rester en surface, de rencontrer un voisin qui m’ai aidé pour le garer la nuit.

                          @_elena le fédiverse c'est le premier/seul réseau social où j'ai pas honte de poster (enfin juste ce qu'il faut car ça reste un peu exhibitionniste) et aussi on est suffisamment peu nombreux pour pouvoir rencontrer les gens et se faire des nouveaux amis, c'est juste un bonus qui enrichit ma vie sans voler mon attention au détriment de tout le reste, ça me convient parfaitement ! j'aime aussi l'aspect "bulle" / safe space / echo chamber car ça donne de la force pour affronter l'extérieur

                            @_elena there is no better place for DIY ambiance. People don't just cheer good quality work, but the attitude, the wish to make art, fix things or just be a bit more self sufficient. It's optimistic and encouraging!

                                @_elena Ooooh cool!

                                My French is beyond bad so in English:

                                The Fediverse allows me to connect to others how I always wanted to - on my own terms, in chronological order, without A/B testing, algorithms, adverts or biases from unpleasant CEOs being thrust upon me.

                                I have been extremely online since 1998 and have many treasured friends made via the internet from the pre-Big-Tech days, and now I'm able to make friends in the same way again.

                                  @_elena Salut Elena!
                                  J’adore le fediverse parce-que ça ressemble un peu le village mondial parfait. On parle avec tout le 🌍 , de tous les sujets- mais toujours d’une manière amicale et respectueuse.

                                  Je me suis intégré l’année passée, je suis ici presque tous les jours- et je n’ai vu aucun post insultant. Sauf deux occasions, quand les modérateurs les ont publié pour expliquer l’exclusion de l’auteur de Mastodon.

                                  Et presque tout le 🌍 contribue des choses productives - c’est bienfaisant. Thx😉

                                    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 The fediverse is beautiful because unlike its for-profit counterparts, it's not made to maximise profits, nor is it made to maximise engagement, and it's not even made to maximise views. It is made to create communities, and facilitate communication inside and between those communities.

                                      @_elena je peux décider quelles personnes et quels sujets je veux suivre, sans qu'un algorithme décide pour moi et sans contenus sponsorisés. Je ne suis plus dépendant des sautes d'humeur d'un milliardaire, et si jamais un jour l'administrateurice de Framapiaf devait péter les plombs, je pourrais facilement porter mon compte sur une autre instance.

                                        Je ne suis pas une accro des RS et mon principal objectif est d'y trouver une source d'information différente des médias mainstream.
                                        Mais depuis les qq années que je suis sur Mastodon, j'ai appris sur énormément de sujets comme le vege/veganisme, l'identité queer et trans, le validisme, l'anarchisme,... (ça fait cliché mais c'est la réalité. Ceci dit, je ne sais toujours pas ce qu'est un Brompton ^^)
                                        Les questions respectueuses reçoivent quasiment toujours des réponses ou des "boosts", il y a de l'entraide possible.
                                        Et sinon, on peut juste échanger des jolies photos qui font du bien ou des petites vannes rigolotes qui font passer le temps 🤗

                                          I like the freedom & ability to chose a homeserver for a federated platform, also self hosting is 😄 .
