When I opened up Lemmy this morning I could not believe my eyes. The top story was a headline from Forbes stating:
« ‘Open Source And Ethical’ TikTok, WhatsApp And Instagram Alternatives Could Transform Social Media ».

The article mostly focused on #Pixelfed and did a fairly good job explaining how #ActivityPub works. But they spelled #Mastodon « Mastadon » over and over again with no links to it. Yikes.

B for the effort, but please editors do better!

Forbes · ‘Open Source And Ethical’ TikTok, WhatsApp And Instagram Alternatives Could Transform Social MediaVon Esat Dedezade

Please join me in a round of applause for @elduvelle who, after reading my toot, reached out to the Forbes journalist, pointing out the "Mastadon" typo.

The typo has been fixed and the article is even linking to joinmastodon.org now 🥳

It just occurred to me that the Forbes article uses a stock photo of a hand holding up a smartphone with a bunch of apps from mainstream, for-profit social media... even if the piece is about the #Fediverse.

So on my to do list for today: recreating a similar photo showing Fediverse software instead. Like, how my actual phone looks like.

As a photographer, I feel it's my duty to do this.

I will give the pic a CC BY-ND license. Thoughts?

And fellow photographers will you join in?

Every day is extra.

@_elena You are completely on the right track, Elena. Also a good time to point out how much I admire your enthusiasm! ❤️

From a recent trip to Germany, I brought home a Fairphone 5. Let me know if I can help out with a photo of Fedi apps on such screen.

@_elena why not create a jpg that looks like a fediverse phone, put it in the phone as wallpaper, then you can set up the phone and photograph it with your camera or another phone without the screen getting dim?

@everydayisextra @_elena How are you liking the Fairphone? I would LOVE one especially if #grapheneos (I know it doesn't) would work on it. We can dream can't we? 🤣

@slax @_elena In a nutshell I’d say it’s the one eyed among the blind. Certainly highly recommended for anyone fixated on Android. I like the concept, and the built quality does not disappoint for the price.
