Really great initiative from @digiges@chaos.social!
EN translation:
Are you an activist on Instagram or TikTok, but your posts get lost among ads and AI-generated junk? Are you critical of our dependence on Big Tech? Worried about the next backlash or account suspension?
Then apply for Digitale Gesellschaft’s open call for a collaborative Fediverse workshop series!
Do you know of any similar initiatives in English or Portuguese? I’d love to see something like this for activists in Brazil and English-speaking activist communities elsewhere.
I’ve discussed this with several Brazilians in my network, but most seemed to prefer Bluesky.
I think it’s important not to leave behind social movements doing valuable work on Big Tech platforms. Rather than expecting them to migrate on their own, we need to show how alternatives like the Fediverse can support their work and help them make that transition.
