One final post about #FediverseHouse before I close out.
Keen observers on mastodon.social may have noticed I jumped around and used different client apps throughout the event.
Special thanks to all the app developers out there making the fediverse fun!

Since it’s basically in my backyard, I’ll be attending the #FediverseHouse put on by @Flipboard and @surf in Austin next weekend.
Who else will be there? Looking forward to it!
@newyorktimes's veteran tech reporter @Markoff interviewed some of #TeamFediverse including @Gargron, @reckless1280 and our CEO @mike for a feature on the rise of decentralized social media. “It goes back to the original principles where the internet started out as decentralized,” Eugen Rochko told Markoff. Here's the full story [may be paywalled].

We’ve got a great conversation lined up for Monday morning at the #FediverseHouse. Mastodon’s @andypiper, Bluesky’s Rose Wang, and The Onion’s Leila Brillson discuss building, growing and sustaining meaningful communities in 2025. (Hint: it involves real human interaction on the social web.) RSVP: https://lu.ma/dvfp9lri #SXSW #sxsw2025 #austin #community

He isn't rooting for Mastodon or Bluesky — he is rooting for Internet users.
Having users accessible to Bluesky users who are not hosted by Bluesky team makes it easier for Bluesky to resist any potential enshittification pressure from Bluesky's investors.
