The fediverse has an intelligent community, built on top of an open and decentralized network that nobody owns. How to join
I have a few social media profiles in the fediverse, one public and the rest are private. Here's my public profile:
@osvaldo@social.osvaldo.pt - Please note that my fediverse public profile only includes my posts. To see my reposts and replies you must follow me first. I also publish stuff that's only viewable by people that already follow me.
To follow me search for @osvaldo@social.osvaldo.pt in your Mastodon, Pixelfed, Friendica or other compatible software and click the appropriate buttons. I'll approve your following in a few hours, if I feel it's genuine, and follow back if I'm interested.
I'm also on Atproto / Bluesky as @osvaldo.pt Search for my username to follow. The Bluesky profile is not a mirror of other accounts and everything is public.
