The Fediverse has empowered me to take back control from Big Tech. Now I want to help others do the same. - Elena Rossini (blog.elenarossini.com)

Its interesting, theres a lot of links she references that I was not aware of in the fediverse (and otherwise).

https://calckey.world/ looks like a microblogging platform.
https://www.deepl.com/en/translator translation service.
https://loops.video - still not sure 100%. Ticktock fedi? Is it any good?
https://clubb.cymru/2024/04/25/linux-mobile-safer-phone-for-childern/ - I want this really bad. A linux phone that doesn't suck would be nice.

Thank you for your comment – OP here (of the blog post).

**Calckey.world **is a Sharkey instance (a fork of MissKey). I LOVE IT SO MUCH, it's my favorite Fediverse software so far... I'm planning to write about it soon for my blog.

Yeah DeepL is NOT part of the Fediverse - I used it to translate a comment from Portuguese to English. Still my favorite online translator but my husband also uses ChatGPT for those purposes and I've been really impressed by its quality, too.

Loops.video just launched - it's the Fediverse's answer to TikTok by the creator of Pixelfed, FediDB, etc. It's not active yet, for now you can register your username, but Dan has yet to onboard users. I believe he said he needs to upgrade to a new server because of all the sign-ups.

Linux phone: yeah, I cannot wait to build one. Definitely my goal for next year - as well as a Linux computer :)
