That, after a short break.
Welcome back to the show.
Kevin, Casey, and I met three months later, this time in person at the San Francisco New York Times office.
I just have to get individual permission to go to every new website.
Okay, but this has been New York Times approved.
Wait, and who are you following on our... Oh, because it's federated.
Just to step in here to fully explain this, because it's confusing and it's important to understand, on normal social media, if Kevin had logged onto Instagram for the first time, he'd only have seen Instagram posts, nothing from Twitter, nothing from TikTok.
Most social media works like that, and there's a good business reason why.
Instagram wants a monopoly on Instagram content, so the site is closed.
You have to sign up on the platform to follow the people there.
But federated websites aren't designed that way.
They're open.
So Kevin, the very first member of the Forkiverse, could already follow anybody who signed up for an account on any other federated social media platform.
He could follow people on Lemmy, which is like Reddit, people on PixelFed, which is like Instagram.
He could even follow some accounts on Threads, Meta's Twitter clone.
Here on the Forkiverse's very first day, its first user already had a full feed.
We'd reached the Forkiverse.
The logo had a 90s pixel aesthetic, rainbow colors, a soaring fork flying over an under-construction sign.
Other than that, it really did have the familiar look of any feed-based social media platform.
Nobody had arrived yet, but as we joined, Mastodon's protocol was already suggesting accounts to follow on other parts of the Fediverse.
