#Fedle is now in testing!

A daily word guessing game played directly on the #Fediverse, inspired by #Wordle / #Sutom. Guess the word in 6 attempts, challenge with other instances.

Follow the bot to play:

FR: @Fedle_fr
EN: @Fedle_en

More info: https://fedle.fedilab.app

Still in early testing, so feedback and bug reports welcome! Boosts appreciated. Thank you

Explizit ausgenommen sind Accounts die angelegt aber nie oder seit längerer Zeit nicht bespielt werden.

Bzw. würde mich bei allen Optionen eine ausführlichere Meinung freuen :)

Ich bin Lehrerin (BBS), nutze das erste Mal Social Media und bin eigtl. nur und #neuhier, um #Mastodon/das #Fediverse zu entdecken und anderen Lernenden eine Alternative zu den Social-Media-Plattformen der Big-Tech-Konzerne zeigen zu können - ohne personalisierte Werbung und intransparente Algorithmen 🙃 #DIDit

Wenn dabei noch toller Input für den Unterricht abfällt, umso schöner (:

Ich wünsche euch eine fabelhafte Woche.

Have you seen this news?

#Mastodon just got funding to add end to end encryption into their software.

So, some time next year, you’ll be able to send truly private messages to the vast majority of the #Fediverse

Im so excited about this.

Because it’s an open spec, this opens the doors for every Fediverse app to join the party.

Yesterday, this project was a proof of concept. Today, Mastodon has turned it into a stampede.

I'm sympathetic to folks who want better discovery tool on fediverse but I'll never truly understand. I love being in the wild west and hunting for content and collecting follows and content sources. Anything that hands me content I quickly loose interest it.

Tiktok never held my interest even trying to get the algo to give me things I want. It never worked and I gave it several week of trying.

I make a bit of fun of the #Fediverse because it sucks in many interesting ways but don't get me wrong, it's still the best place to be.

Did you know over at #Bluesky you can't even edit your 300 character posts yet, and there are no polls?

RE: https://mastodon.social/@iwritelike/116393843658018750

Which word would you use to refer to yourself? "I", presumably, in the singular. And how about you and a group of people? "We", of course, in the plural.

But how about you and one other person?

In modern English, there is no word for that. You would probably just use "we" or "the two of us".

But more than 1,000 years ago, you would have said: "wit".

This term, once also used affectionately to describe the closeness between two people, is one of many personal pronouns that have been lost or transformed amid huge social and political change over the centuries. The English language has become simplified – but at times this has left gaps, creating confusion.

"Wit" means "we two" in Old English, a Germanic language spoken in England until about the 12th Century, which evolved into the English we speak today. Now completely lost, "wit" was part of an extinct group of pronouns used for exactly two people: the dual form, which also includes "uncer" or "unker" ("our" for two people) and "git" ("you two"). That dual form vanished from the English language around the 13th Century.

Centralized and corporate-owned social media hurts Native communities

Tech billionaires do not care about us; for them, our communities only serve to be exploited for capital gain... They’ve revolutionized the art of cultural appropriation, making algorithms that can steal Native art and use it without consent much faster than was ever before possible.
