"It would be simple to say that we have built a social media app. We have. But we've also built something more." @Saskia looks at how we define our latest step-forward before the first launch 👀 Check it out 👇 [forbetter.ghost.io/defining-a-n...]( ) #SocialMedia #LocalNews [Defining a new kind of social ...]( )
Community shouldn't be far away. That's why we're helping organisations, activists, and local organisers build their community away from the divisive algorithms of Big Tech. #SocialMedia #CommunityBuilding https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreiemwbz4d2pxxfcjmejs2vx43hoagdxw6txli5zepqfb6c4655kwii
Yesterday, we visited [@thebristolcable.bsky.social]( ) for their AGM to announce our exciting partnership. The Bristol Cable is a co-op, 100% locally-owned publication and we're very proud to be developing new ways to help them connect with their community away from Big Tech. #LocalJournalism https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreidvjyoivfywk6ukqywy6m27rdtbhcxcajw4qlezg4nbhrmhwgyrh4

Your profile on the Open Social Web looks the same as your profile on Big Tech social platforms, but there's a big difference. Your profile is no longer a profile on a platform, but an address across a web. That's why we recommend filling out your profile here carefully. #BlueskyTips #SocialMedia https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreigbr4qnqfc7sllbj63rt44zd5udbmasnae2fhfplfiudvljk7a4ba
"Where the social connection for a Facebook Group is the Meta walled garden, our community apps connect through to the open social web, on the Fediverse, and, across the bridge, Bluesky." - @Michael Foster [www.blog-pat.ch/building-app...]( ) #SocialMedia #SocialWeb #Blog [Building apps for social space...]( )
Joining the Open Social Web is easy, right? Perhaps not. Joining a community is about more than being there, an account doesn't mean participation. We're helping new users participate in on the Open Social Web by introducing them to topical content through our Channels. #SocialMedia [Home | Channel.org]( )
What are you a fan of? 🎸 🏀 Whether it's sports, music, TV, or something else. It's human nature to be a fan. But here on the Social Web, it can sometimes be hard to find fan content, leading to many hanging around platforms like X for their fan content. Let's change that! #Fandom #SocialMedia https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreigtx7bqlvcgeoat5lcvib6iw5qktja7w3ae5oiy2uebk37h65yvie
🍎 The Forbidden Fruit Traditional social media is designed to lock you in. But, you don't have to stay confined within the closed walls any longer. Here on the Open Social Web, there's always an escape. On Bluesky, that's Bounce by [@anew.social]( ) #Bluesky #SocialMedia
We asked if people would go back to X if there was a new owner. Of the 812 people who responded, 67% said no. The Open Social Web is the future of social media, there is no going back 🔐 #SocialMedia #X #Twitter #SocialWeb
