Still, I keep having a recurrent thought that if I don't make videos now, to help promote the Fediverse, I would regret it in the future.

Yes my daily schedule makes it a challenge to do videos. But this is a good challenge, for a GREAT cause.

I'm so frustrated and angry and disgusted by Big Tech barons and their horrid behavior... I need to channel this rage somewhere... into a creative project 🎥

Please be patient with me (making videos is SOOO time consuming). But do know I'm on your side.

Thank you again for your sweet, encouraging messages. I’m typing this as I go pick up my child from daycare.

So yes I will definitely make a video soon. It will take time. Weeks possibly. But on the upside: as soon as I finish the English version, I could get to work on French and Italian ones for maximum impact. One of the perks of being a polyglot ✌️

I’ll be mostly offline for the rest of the day, thanks again ❤️

So it is decided. Yes, I will make promotional videos for the #Fediverse: explaining what it is, how to use various software... and setting it up in contrast to the current horrors of Meta and X.

Anger and frustration have been building up in me since November. This week has been a hell of a ride. I gotta channel all these negative feelings somewhere and turn them into something positive instead. Promoting the Fediverse and resuming making films seem like the perfect match...

I can feel tremendous momentum building for the Fediverse. There has never been a better time to convince people to abandon the closed silos of Big Tech, in favor of something open and ethical.

I spent six months writing articles about the Fediverse (blog.elenarossini.com/tag/the-) and I'm super grateful for the positive responses here. That said, I realize that in our post-literate society, videos may be more effective and persuasive.

So: game on! (just be patient please) 😅

The coming days will be interesting.

I will be spending half the day reading Peppa Pig books to my child, drawing and building DUPLO and LEGO sets with her...

and half the day writing a script that aims to inflict the maximum damage imaginable to the perception of Meta and X. While of course promoting the Fediverse in contrast to the dystopia of Big Tech.

I reckon I need 20 hours to make a first video. Please be patient but know I'm extremely motivated, time constraints and all 🤗

@_elena really excited to see how this initiative evolves. I have been so impressed with your dedication to understanding the fediverse these past 6 months and I can't wait to see what the next 6 bring!
