This curated collection of global Fediverse events showcases the rapid expansion and technical diversification of the decentralized social web throughout 2026. Covering a wide range of activities from local meetups in Montreal and Berlin to large-scale international gatherings like DWeb Camp and FediDay, the schedule emphasizes core themes of digital sovereignty, protocol development, and public institution integration. Technical sessions delve into specific frameworks such as ATProto, Bonfire, and Hubzilla, while broader discussions address the evolution of W3C social web standards and the impact of regional regulations like the Digital Services Act. These gatherings facilitate critical knowledge sharing and collaboration for those building the next generation of open, interoperable communication infrastructures.

@paride5745Paride Dan davvero guarda… le famose giornate in cui va (quasi) tutto storto
Hello CoSocial.ca! Just joined this server. I've been on Mastodon since 2017, on different servers. I'm also currently at https://hcommons.social/deck/@chendricks (though I may migrate from there to here soon to transfer followers).
I'm in Vancouver, BC, where I work as a philosophy professor (on leave at the moment). See my bio for stuff I post/boost about and am interested in and passionate about. I also sometimes do #ds106 Daily Creates and (almost) daily photos over on Flickr and sometimes on Pixelfed.

@tomTom Casavant or referencing for example an image-post on a website and clicking on it from the browser so that it promps me to open it on #mastodon or #pixelfed where I am already logged in and from there being able to repost, favorite, etc

"Trans women have no advantage in women's sports, studies confirm this result"
A bunch of weird people: "nuh uh, science says otherwise!"
What do these tools think a "study" is and what do they think "science" is.

Hey Punkstodon.de! Thanks for having me!
I'm a vegan dude that grew up in a hardcore punk scene in the south of Brazil. I'm a visual artist and burned out animator, trying to figure out what my next thing will be (I need to change a few things or I'll spontaneously combust). I'm also a linux and foss nerd.
Here goes a band from around these parts of the world:

I never realised (partly because of their name), but CD Japan cdjapan.co.jp is actually pretty good for physical books in Japanese .
Today I bought three Japanese paperbacks and it came to just over £16, and that's including delivery to the UK! The cheapest and slowest mode of delivery (air mail), but if you're not in a hurry...

Found a gem for YouTube (V3 extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/v3-get-old-youtube-layout/) — which brings the old interface (from the start of XXI century) back. It is more clean, if it is even possible to say "clean" about YouTube interface, and also it is faster as hell than the "modern" one.
On the my box (Thinkpad X220 with i7, 16 Gb of RAM) the usual YouTube lags as hell, even while I'm scrolling. The old interface — works almost instantly, lol.

Why did i forgot #mc ( #midnightcommander )? Such a great Tool if you have to deal with lots of unknown directory structures (aka ThirdParty archives) and need to move or mix and merge arbitrary filebases. Surely didnt used it since 10 Years but my fingers still know all the shortcuts and command keys. Crazy...
