The SocialHub was created to support the people building federated apps and to evolve the standards and practices that are foundations of the Fediverse. For many different reasons the SocialHub has now come to a stage where we must decide on its future. Substrate Formation The Fediverse with its many fedizens and independent projects that want to interoperate relies on the ability for the people involved to find each other, discuss how to solve challenge and innovate, and to “get-things-done”. ...

The activity of the SocialHub community, like all other ‘fediverse-substrate’ bodies, has waned. From an active community to just a forum. Now a decision has to be made for the future of SocialHub. The options are stopping, be just a forum, or revitalize a vibrant community. The last option needs people willing and committed to do so. To step up for the sake of Fediverse Futures.

    To my knowledge I’m not a member, but I am interested in a thing like this. I mostly deal in client-server stuff though so my opinion on the actual federation side is largely irrelevant. I suppose this is the only time I’ll concede value in bridging. But on the other hand… Just a collection of communities, one per ecosystem, is probably fine. People will gravitate towards the ones that suit the spaces they exist in. This would be easier with cooperation, eg. every project and instance pointing towards its respective collab space. I say all this but I haven’t paid attention to the matrix room. I set my notifications according to the size of the room, so I pretty much ignore larger rooms. I’d be willing to be involved in the forum if I had a decent client for it; something light that I could leave open on a spare monitor. To my knowledge there are no desktop tapatalk clients, letalone good ones. I’ve been meaning to do that for a while, but well, always more projects… Because, well, without a client: >Powered by Discourse, best viewed with JavaScript enabled
