Some of you here, and on other servers, post on particular topics, like Celtic culture, Linux, cardiovascular health. But most microblogging applications, like Mastodon, lack engagement. People who read your posts don’t see follow-up discussions, either because they are unaware there is a discussion, or because, given the nature of the Fediverse, their server doesn’t receive all the related posts.

Imagine if you were able to set up a “digital campfire” as a supplement where you can dive deep into discussions, answer questions, and engage with your readers about your passion and interest, where everyone can see all the interactions.

This is what Fediverse applications like PieFed, Lemmy, and MBIN provide (Reddit alternatives). They allow you to create focused communities dedicated to your passions and interests.

These platforms are also federated, connecting with other Fediverse apps for wider reach.

Ready to create and moderate a digital campfire? You can set up a community on my PieFed server at https://feddit.online or a different server more suited to your liking. You can then invite your readers to join and engage. While there, you might find other communities to join. There are tons of them.
