Yup

Thanks. It was due to me using a wrong port. Its working now.

Sorry for the inconvinience

Yes, also occures without the header. But I think I know the problem now: I tried to use the certificate of my host provider, which seems not to work for federation

Ok, yeah, I’m using a certiciate of my domain provider. Maybe that’s the problem … thanks! I will try to do it with letsencrypt/acme

Or do you know a similar post maybe?

You are right, it could be read that way from the title. But from the content it becomes pretty clear that the section of the universe called the “Open Web” was deserted in this world decades ago and no one is there.

Ok, I see. To be honest, I didn’t put as much thought in this than in the last stories. Maybe it would have worked if it was longer … I will think about it! Thanks anyway for the feedback.

And it isn’t very Solarpunkish 😉

the use of “open web” etc makes it too up front as well

That’s true. But otherwise, I don’t think the idea would have come across

Well yes, but Solarpunk also supported dezentrality 😇

the use of “open web” etc makes it too up front as well

Its meant in the sense: better build communities in the fediverse rather than on Mars. Its a pun on “Colonize Mars”

Ja stimmt, Novelle trifft es eher. Die einzelnen Teile sind aber einigermaßen abgeschlossen. Man kann es also in Häppchen lesen.

Hab noch nicht für mehr als den Anfang Zeit gehabt, der klingt interessant.

Danke :)

I used to hunt mushrooms with my grandparents as a kid. Got some good memories there. I’m also watched one or the other fungi docu on Netflix. Fascinating stuff.

I can dig up some good podcasts. If you search your favorite podcast service for queer mycology you can learn some interesting things about fungi in a couple of hours :)

Ha ha. It’s such a niche topic but I’m increasingly fascinated by it. Will definitely check out such a podcast :)

Wow. Mycology what a awesome name! :D

I would suggest a series of short stories if you like the setting and are enjoying writing it.

I was thinking about that too. Could be cool to experiment with different characters, factions, etc.

I think something more relatable might get the solar punk message across. I only dipped into the short story you posted and it felt more fantasy than near future sci-fi.

Its just that with the mention of actual federated social media, many people seem to immediatly recoil. And then if you introduce some metaphor for the Fediverse like the Fungiverse, then you also have to incorporate it in a world that really embraces the concept.

And tbh, I opened it more because I’m a mushroom and sci-fi/fantasy nerd and saw your post in the sci-fi sub.

Ah, I see. Maybe I do need to edit the story again so it fits more the primary genre … let’s see. Thanks for the feedback ;)

Got it. I will edit it

Yeah, probably. So you like the story in general its just too much going on?

Ok, I wrote most of it myself, for parts 2-5 I used some generated stuff as well. I think its fine to use AI as help for inspiration and to get a start. But the first part (Spring) I wrote completely myself. Its actually a few years old by now.

Its fine. Honest feedback is always good. Have to see what I can do about the format

I’ll be honest, I only made it halfway into the first paragraph. Such as they are, the thin paragraphs coupled with multiple-screens-no-formatting length makes it impossible to follow the text

That’s unfortunate. I will try to fix it. The WriteFreely-Server I used keeps crashing so I switched to Wordpress …

plus at least from the first paragraph it reads like generated AI nonsense.

I wrote it myself :D But its fine. I hoped it would be fun to read.

Is that the point, though? As in, is this my wooooosh-moment? Is this supposed to say that the Fediverse is too difficult to consume and makes no sense at first?

No, it shouldn’t :( It should just be fantasy/magic realism

@hazeebabee@slrpnk.net New version of Lamella on My Mind, if you are still interested.

1. Every social network is it’s own universe. So basically if you speak about the multiverse of social networks universe sounds pretty sealed.
2. Fair enough, I’m just not sure it’s THE defining feature of the social web that I have in mind. For me it’s more the dezentral aspect and that’s for me best represented with fungi
