Trying out the fediverse for the first time today.

@evan I saw that in your bio, definitely going to take a look. for the working group, will there be a link to join the call on the site? i saw the github, are there any minutes from previous meetings that I can catch up on?

@spencexyz You can see the calendar here:

There are meeting notes here:

@evan amazing, thank you!

@spencexyz @clew no and no. I came across it the other day and it was still in my tabs. the dev is here though

@spencexyz I suspect you’ve already found him, but if not it looks like @javahippie is the awesomeness behind FitPub.

@kaleb @haraldkliems do you have any recs for good alternatives?

@spencexyz howdy ho and welcome to the fediverse and be sure to follow hashtags to find your tribes

@spencexyz @kaleb I think other people have pointed you to wanderer.to already. But I think a lot of the campground info would be much more useful in @openstreetmap. But maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to do with your platform.

@haraldkliems @kaleb @openstreetmap the platform started out just POIs on a map. I found it hard to use open street maps to view the data I wanted about the campgrounds. In the future, I'd like to have the platform sync with OSM so people can see the data in other places.

right now I'm exploring other functionality for the site similar to things that https://www.crazyguyonabike.com/ has. But modernized with new functionality that I would like to have.

@kaleb @javahippie hey Tim, I'd love to check out your project. I tried to sign up but I need a registration password. Would you be able to DM me one?

@spencexyz A reasonable departure strategy for those still with many followers on X is to copy posts made primarily on preferred platform there, not interact with responses on X, and place ID and preferred platform of interaction onto the X profile to encourage follower migration.

@spencexyz Welcome!
