Updating Mastodon Presentation
Intro
I last updated my Mastodon Presentation in 2020, I have been working on a new version using Overleaf and the LaTeX typesetting system.
I have tried to make sure it is clear what both the Fediverse is, what Mastodon is and how Mastodon fits within the Fediverse.
The old version , written in LibreOffice Inpress is here.
The new version is here
New version uses
Overleaf Online editor
LaTex + Beamer
External assets e.g graphics
main.tex
You can clone this in the usual way
git clone https://salsa.debian.org/zleap-guest/mastodonpresentation2024
I am still not very good at using git, and there is little in the way of support within Torbay at the moment.

Academics on Mastodon
Anyone now claiming that no one uses the Fediverse, clearly has no clue as to what they are talking about.
There is a large academic presence on Mastodon alone, and Mastodon is just part of the wider Fediverse. The first list below [1] is an excellent resource there is also Trunk, which also lists by interest / topic.

Fediverse Getting Started – May 2023
I decided to re-write and republish this, so the post can focus on the wider picture of what the Fediverse is.
This has been undertaken following comments / conversations on # Mastodon about people not actually referring to the # Fediverse directly, of which # Mastodon is one of many services. A different video is presented below, along with an infographic and # Hastags to the services listed This list has also been added to the # index page.

Twitter API changes
Sharing as this will affect a lot of people.
Never fear as there are plenty of FREE, Open Source, and Paid for Mastodon Apps available for anyone who wants to jump over to the Fediverse.

The Linux Experiment: How to use Mastodon
I have scheduled this post to tie in nicely with my previous post which explains why I feel it is good that I left Twitter.
Another really useful guide on how to use Mastodon which is part of the Fediverse, social network of decentralised services.
Unless you have been living in a cave, you should have heard of this by now.
