📣 It's been a while since we've federated a batch of publishers — so to make up for it, here are 250, and they're big ones.

Today, we're bringing names like @abc, @RollingStone, @forbes, @BleacherReport, @NationalGeographic and @newyorktimes to the fediverse. They join the 174 profiles we've already federated, which include everyone from @19thnews to @Vox

Here's a blogpost with more details on this latest batch of publications that cover news, business, cooking, home design, politics, sports, science and more. Follow their Magazine feeds if you're only interested in one topic, or their whole profiles if you want the lot. The spreadsheet below lists out all federated accounts.

Die EU unterstützt Open Source finanziell. Auch viele Fediverse-Projekte wie Mastodon oder PeerTube wurden vom Next Generation Internet-Programm gefördert. Damit könnte bald Schluss sein: Laut dem Entwurf eines Arbeitsprogramms soll es 2025 kein Geld mehr für das Projekt geben. Die Reaktionen sind entgeistert. Mein Artikel für @netzpolitik_feed

Das Next Generation Internet-Programm der EU-Kommission fördert seit Jahren freie, quelloffene Software. Nun scheint aber ein stilles Aus zu drohen. Laut einem internen Dokument könnte die Finanzierung bald enden.

It's important to add ALT text to images in social media posts, otherwise you're excluding 1 in 5 people from your messages. It's super important in election time for politician's to add ALT text to social media, and it's so easy.
