Dear Fedi friends,
I'm really proud to share with you a video I made: "Introducing the Fediverse: a New Era of Social Media" news.elenarossini.com/fedivers…
In this 4-minute video I explain what the #fediverse is to people not familiar with it, mentioning some of its great features and benefits (interoperability, no ads, no surveillance...) and I set it in contrast to the world of Big Tech social platforms. I argue that, with the rise of Big Tech oligarchs and the current political climate, there has never been a better time to join the fediverse.
I hope you will enjoy this video and that you will find it useful (maybe as a tool to introduce your friends, family, colleagues, school administrators, local government officials to it).
The fediverse has truly changed my life, making me a better, more empowered digital citizen. I am endlessly grateful for it, so this is my contribution to the cause ❤️
I am also incredibly thankful for the work of @samaaberg and @patel.riyen who helped me bring my vision to life with their amazing cinematography skills and their assistance throughout the process, providing brilliant feedback to the script / edits from the POV of fedi newbies.
And I was also moved by the generous help of people of the Fediverse who volunteered to translate the script into many foreign languages: @jan @fritjof @erikkemp @sknob @severin @clabru @tarcisiosurdi @hongminhee @danielcasanueva @ainali @nacly
Lastly, I'm thankful for the opportunity I had to premiere the video last week at #FediForum - thank you @j12t and @anca
The video is up on my self-hosted PeerTube instance (thank you @yunohost) and for now it is unlisted as I have no idea how my VPS will hold up. I also included an alternate location in the blog post.
I hope you'll enjoy it! It's been a real labor of love (a month of full time work on it)... I see it as my love letter to the fediverse 💌

in reply to Elena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂ • •Dear @Elena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂, I would like to thank you for the best #Fediverse commercial so far 😀 It's amazingly well made and not overwhelmingly informative.
While we are at it though, I would like to ask all #Peertube admins and mods around here to mirror the video just like we did on vhsky.cz to lower the load of Elena's server so we could have this video publicly visible 😀
Thanks everyone involved

in reply to Elena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂ • • •Many thanks for this brilliant video! ✨
I’d love to take part and translate the subtitles into Hebrew¹. What’s the procedure for doing that?
I see you have flags for different languages on news.elenarossini.com/fedivers…. This has several downsides, and specifically I’d appreciate it if you don’t put Israel’s flag on the line for Hebrew, as I don’t support genocide, apartheid and occupation.

in reply to Elena Rossini on GoToSocial ⁂ • • •I just want to say that this is by far the clearest and most succinct intro to Fedi that I've seen so far. Well done indeed.
I now have that link bookmarked in the hopes of indoctrinating more of my friends 🙂
