Hi @freemo, questions about dealing with federation from more commercial entities:

█Can it be possible to continue as it is now and then opt-in from preferences? To switch on per user each as the main thing to do with federating with BlueSky and Thread.net.
Perhaps more will come but these 2 for now since they are especially commercial / less like Mastodon.

An all or nothing switch, started "off" first to continue without being embedded / scraped, and then each user decides to change, not not.

So before more happens with more commercial versions of Mastodon etc (essentially making for hybrid Fediverse perhaps), I would le want to see if those 2 things were possible?

█Threads (social network)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threads_(social_network)

Who owns Google or YouTube?....
Can you name anyone related to Google or YouTube?.......
Anybody at all?

Did you ever think why you don't know anything about that?...

So I think it's interesting to reflect that. AND a big blind spot of people (especially if you are pro or against google).

Bashing Mark Zuckerberg for Facebook is one thing but somehow Google got away with things...

I'll mention some info as potential answers below of those related, not as hate but just being aware who's behind most of it.

Larry Page... CEO before 2015
Sundar Pichai... CEO of 2015+

Sundar Pichai also became the CEO of Alphabet (parent company) 2019+

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google

So not having the same attention for Google is something to check in ourselves if we have feeling either way.

#Fediverse vs Google / YouTube #Capitalism

(my response to "I'm busy" or other reasons not sure working with strangers / the world)

It's amazing how fast a person is online when it's something I or others are doing for you!

This comment is not made negatively - I'm glad for very real reasons but most is laziness or excuses for not wanting to explore the unknown. I measure this by how fast people are (sorry you can't hide this!) and how online and not really busy they are even with concessions about that!)
This is just to show, similar to picture, that actually you do have time, you do squeeze things in and you do see the point... once you have the will or incentive carrot. But sometimes more logic and love needs to be used... almost for halloing worldwide peace to happen (as general as that sounds it comes from smaller working together).

So dear friend or potential friends...

Let all that jazz about being busy be seen as simply a carrot thing... and it's not that I knock that for yourself but the bar can be a bit too low where ONLY you do things for carrots and not when I or others ask for something and just generally giving freely to the universe is not seen as credible or why as reason (which I hope I provide now).

The picture is not to insult you but to say that if you act like an animal (only via carrot) then that is what we become.

Somewhat in crapitalism we have to train ourselves out of capitalism and into the Fediverse as real alternative! for everything!

(The Fediverse ways of sharin, ethics and communication basically)

Don't let anything get in the way of progress (increment please) and rather than blocking just start / continue in small amounts...

Often people assume they have to do all of it now or do the same like me. Noooo.... Just starting is good enough and believing in people and then measuring on what really happens rather than aesthtics.

Thanks overall

Isn't it about being more real and getting better / balancing everyone?

A Fediverse game-changer I believe. Fediver$e (or Fediverse) ?

#FEDIVERSE #TIP = INSTANT NOTIFICATIONS *PER USER*

█HOW TO TEST IT? ENABLE / DISABLE?
👤 On user profile page: 👤
click follow :follow
(or you already follow) and
🔔 then click bell 🔔 button which appears only after follow is accepted.

█Instant notifications means posts are not piled up so much or lost in 100's of other follows- buried in the timeline... they are more of a priority or valued seeing the pop up and disappear quite discreetly and without interaction needed with popup.

█Then when bored go to browse timeline for the other people you probably have forgotten or don't have time for!

█So this way you read 1 by 1 as it pops up for a few seconds on screen, and ignore or reply. This helps considering replying in the now sense and not later.

█No need catch up later so much, read now and while people need each other / don't want to forget !

If online is all you have, then make more relative contact with people.

Find things relative to you and them that really are mutual and healthy for thinking / doing.

Talk to people... Find a way...
Serve and Allow people in.
Offer more and Ask more from people.

❤️ 💗 Love is a protocol! 💗 ❤️

Fediverse is networking our love and passion - mostly for peace work! People like me are woeking on it! 🚀 🎈

See Example: My definition of love using a vocabulary of other words for you / family / parter(s) to think about and work on!

https://qoto.org/@freeschool/110949550185613050

Can you imagine how powerful and even good it might feel to have so much power at your finger tips...

Like Icarus- are tech people trying to touch the clouds in the same way?.... to feel that warm glow?

Must be similar - having a mass of electrically-charged information-processing stuff at your finger-tips that can do almost anything - lights blinking like crazy... like an extension of your own being!

Touching and even Owning the clouds... Icarus style: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icarus

Obviously can be too much for one person to "fly too close to the sun", but perhaps many will try and industry knows it too.

In the right hands, it might just win it for us as a more responsible version of the status-quo... called Fediverse but ultimately something will cut somewhere...

So I wouldn't encourage anyone to try to touch the cloud or indeed think it can be all done remotely without A LOT of conscious humanity involved almost before or in between all that industrial BIGTech...

Something more like this for real happiness:
😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃
😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃

😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃
😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃

P.S The image is a modification. It shows Icarus flying into a walled garden 😉

If you can't follow someone due to incompatible instance / block servers (other instance may have blocked due to a few users or politically) - you can still follow users using this way...

Add those people to a list (Subscribe via RSS)... I think this is the way or simplest how to say it

(someone please check me if I'm correct if they use it daily that this works as I've said)

Tony Heller also explains CENSORSHIP AND PROPAGANDA BEHIND GOOGLE / YOUTUBE ...

#AI #Artificial #Intelligence #Capitalism #Fediverse #FreeSchool#FreeSchool #Tech #Technology

"Use your intelligence. Not AI"...

Otherwise one day they will switch it off / rug-pull once they you get hooked or dependant on it (I.T.)....."

First it's optional then mandatory
(so many things seen this way)

AI... CONTROLLERS BEHIND A SCREEN...

tHINK "wIZARD OF oZ"

and best way to get consent when majority of ignorance over time and happy AI images forces your vote to be insignificant about it's dangers, #privacy, #infosec ETC!

Like money and all these devices they actually give, then take away more over time than give... (%'s / inflation / controls / legalities / renaming and repositioning goal posts, rug-pulling carpets, rebranding things at their will etc)

Judging People like 'Judging a Book by their cover... [Podcast Introduction]

Optional reading....

Looking at the phenomenon of not replying in a lot more depth, similar to emails people don't answer consciously and deliberately for many nuanced reasons. Is this eventually crucial to humanity (?)
and as basic communication something to improve(?)...

******************************
MORE DEPTH FOLLOWS
OPTIONAL READING
*****************************
OK... in /some/ way external ignorance and judging people is a normal everyday thing, but not cool in my book and gone too far now where it renders things fake or useless.
People "Judging a book by their cover" more often... which isn't ok after a while and probably under the radar now... or has plenty of room for improvement.

Because actually we and our communication skills are seemingly dying. (no drama intended just dying)

And we need better communication - in everything now. Even more when we rely on just text... (which is why I'm going for audio heavily now as you can feel people better without knowing anything about them, and see / hear they care about topic)... no flags etc...

---------------------------------------
Extra / for those that want...
---------------------------------------

Looking at the phenomenon of not replying is genuine here because constantly I find (after asking / talking to many) that they are the best / genuine / dedicated people but need help gently in their ways... as we all do.

Analysis also provided about the nuanced set of 'I'm too busy' and 'I haven't got time' variations which are really cover-up and cloaked:

ignorance,
disgust,
distance,
judgement,
hypocrisy,

deception (of self or not facing self, deception of others)

non-player attitude,

force - from enforcing silence / being silent

disconnection - ('attachment theory' from human need to communicate

existing structures - who don't solve things and like bad parent, just hard relationships / abusive / isolating / false)

If interested in the key words above, follow.
-----------------------------
Also just say hi or yes to what is interesting and I'll focus on that in the next audio.
-----------------------------
All the above represents what 'looks like' people are interested (usually in other people) but sometimes people only want to extract and not accept the human things or what more baggage they bring them (which in overall sense we can all help with solving or understanding and by not doing create / allow more sterile and cold places and even enable cultures like fascism from the lack of input from the many who say little).

So achieving something but not really is what happens often. And doing it in a way that is detrimental over time if it's less human along the way.

Also when it's not in your interest or their interest to trying to find a way, it is twice as bad because you're not even giving a chance to solving it (again along the way).

We know copying / following the structure(s) we're in doesn't work.

People still don't know about much and don't want to hear about it either!
(look at your parents as a quick test) ...which is ok until really it's not and society becomes one big cold ignorant mass.

It's actually doing the opposite from then on and that list above (which I consider as true / evident) starts to happen if you're not incorporating and incrementing those things wanted into you life personally at some level or all levels.

If interested follow / add comments.

---------------------------------------
Other stuff I should cut off but you made it this far...
---------------------------------------

I aim to speak for those unspoken people and unspoken feelings.
Might be left and right a bit, but you're here to balance also.

To say more unsaid things mostly because I calculate that protecting ourselves is of no benefit any more and just covering up into a turtle.

Your image or job etc is simply less worthy of time as time goes and being lost to the opposite things (i.e. not together <-- which is what we need more often).

So together, with people, something better will come, working on those human internal things more than externalised projects which forget the internal purification. Ultimately by-design just another money thing or less-human project is not going to work.

We are trying to get to a better alignment, and people need to be their own justice... and speak up for themself.

If that is not a different or real thing - let me know also.

With Thanks.

I think we all need people's love...
which this audio portrays for me and hope you agree!

☼ Forever like the love samples which stand test of time... 💗 ⏲️

☼ I love making small videos, occasionally cropped of the visuals or other elements. Do you?

☺ I would like to do this more often and for a 'higher' purpose which people get from music 🎵 - please ask + give me reasons to make things!
