联邦宇宙是一个庞大的社交媒体服务网络。 它包含用于微博客、博客、图片博客、视频托管等多种平台,并且它们都是互联或“联邦化”的。 因此,你只需要一个账户就可以关注任意平台上的用户。
想象
想象一下,如果 Twitter、Facebook、Instagram 等都是一个庞大网络的一部分。这基本上就是联邦宇宙,只不过这些部分不那么知名,是自由软件和它们的联邦化替代品。
在联邦宇宙中,你可以使用“Twitter”账户与“Facebook”用户互动,分享“Instagram”帖子,在“YouTube”视频下评论,听“Bandcamp”音乐,关注“Blogger”博客,参与“Reddit”讨论等等。
与传统社交媒体相比如何?
功能
联邦宇宙及其项目让你可以将自己的社交媒体融入更大的网络。
与 Twitter 和 Instagram 等传统社交媒体相比,它有许多优势。由于其去中心化的特性,可以创建更多小型社交媒体圈子,让用户聚在一起。托管自己的实例可以让你制定自己的规则。大多数实例所有者出于拥有自己平台的目的,用自己的钱维护实例,而不是通过向你展示广告来赚钱。
联邦宇宙在以往成功的基础上进行创新,并添加了许多新功能。一个常见的功能是自定义表情符号。类似于 Discord,它允许管理员添加自己的(甚至是动画的)表情符号。联邦宇宙还让你决定谁可以看到你的帖子:通过所谓的范围,你可以决定是只有你提到的用户、你的关注者还是公众能够看到它们。
道德
传统社交媒体既不社交也不是媒体。它不是为你而设计,而是为了剥削你,并且充满了误导性广告和假新闻。
这是因为传统社交媒体的目的是赚很多钱。
联邦宇宙的目的是造福人们。
传统社交媒体的目的是控制和引导用户。
联邦宇宙的目的是赋予用户控制联邦宇宙的权力。
缺点
与传统社交媒体相比,也有一些缺点:
联邦宇宙的用户基础比其他平台小得多,所以如果你主要是为了寻找广泛的观众,那么它可能不适合你。 并不是所有联邦宇宙项目都处于同一开发阶段,有些项目具备的重要功能,其他项目可能仍然缺失。 联邦宇宙项目和实例由志愿者运行,背后没有很多资金。最坏的情况是:一个项目可能不再维护,或者一个实例可能关闭。 有些实例允许仇恨言论、假新闻或更糟糕的内容。确保你不会进入这些实例之一。
警告
The internet doesn't forget, but compared to central social media, ❗️the Fediverse can't forget❗️. On a central platform it is generally possible to delete a post or media file, but on decentral social media you can only delete stuff on one server. Some other servers will delete it as well, but it is possible that some servers don't delete it. You should be aware of this before posting anything that could be problematic.
Terminology
- Your account or identity has a unique address called a handle and is hosted on one of the many servers, also called instances.
- An instance is basically a small social network hosted on one server. Each instance can have its own set of rules as for what content is allowed. You can also host your own instance. Each instance runs one software.
- The software used on an instance is essential for the user experience and possibilities.
- Many software projects use the same protocol which enables instances to communicate with each other. Most software projects use Activity Pub. Some projects might not have full federation with other projects yet.
- The Fediverse (federated universe) is the sum of all accounts, on all instances using any software, communicating with any protocol.
The Fediverse includes more than just social media projects. Any software that federates using one of the protocols is part of the Fediverse. - @PaulaToThePeople@ClimateJustice.social is an example for a handle. ClimateJustice.social is the instance the account is on. The software it uses is Mastodon. Thanks to the ActivityPub protocol it can follow accounts on other instances that use e.g. Mastodon, GNU Social or Pixelfed software.
How do I get an account?

If you just want to get to know the Fediverse experience you can start by creating a profile on mastodon.social or mastodon.online.
You can later move instances or create accounts on different instances and projects.
