The Fediverse Files: Making Social Media Fun Again

Social media has become unruly and hard to navigate. (An understatement, we know.) How can the fediverse make social media fun again? Tune in.

In this episode of the Fediverse Files, ‪‪Doc Pop talks with Bart Decrem, the co-creator of Mammoth, an open source Mastodon app for iOS.

Doc and Bart discuss how the walled gardens of modern social media platforms are finally getting some real competition from a better, and more open social web. The rise of the fediverse signals a return to the original promise of the web: that anyone can find a home, their own place on the internet, and connect with whomever they want without getting trapped in a single platform. 

Whether it’s through a newsletter, a podcast, or a publisher’s website, Bart’s goal is to get a million websites and a hundred million people onto the fediverse.
