Mastodon 继续增长，Medium 的新社区平台也加入了
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
> Mastodon 的又一次胜利！Medium 为其用户推出了一个 Mastodon 实例。
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Mastodon 在最近一段时间的增长是巨大的；越来越多的人正在转向这个 Twitter 的替代品。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你不熟悉 Mastodon，它是目前 [最好的主流社交媒体替代品][2] 之一，有可能成为 Twitter 的替代品，它是 **完全开源和去中心化的**。
|
||||
|
||||
随着 Twitter 的不断发生变化和去年埃隆·马斯克对它的收购，更多的用户开始对 Mastodon 这个平台产生了浓厚的兴趣。
|
||||
|
||||
Vivaldi [最近推出了][3] 其由 Mastodon 驱动的社区，[Mozilla 基金会][4] 也在考虑类似的东西。
|
||||
|
||||
现在，[Medium][5] 已经向前迈出了一步，推出了它们的 Mastodon 实例。
|
||||
|
||||
### Medium 启动了一个由 Mastodon 驱动的社区
|
||||
|
||||
在 [最近的公告][6] 中，Medium 在 [me.dm][7] 推出了其 Mastodon 实例，专注于 “帮助他们的作者、出版物和读者在 <ruby>联盟宇宙<rt>Fediverse</rt></ruby> 中找到一个家”。
|
||||
|
||||
该网站（即 Mastodon 实例）旨在成为 Medium 的用户的专属空间。
|
||||
|
||||
![][8]
|
||||
|
||||
换句话说，它将成为 Medium 用户的专属社交网络平台。
|
||||
|
||||
有了这个网络平台，他们也可以开始进行 500 字以内的短文写作了。
|
||||
|
||||
Medium 的 CEO 提到：
|
||||
|
||||
> 相比之下，Mastodon 主要是为 500 字以内的短文写作服务的。用一个不太双关的说法：今天，我们正在借助 Mastodon 上的实例（me.dm）将我们用于发表长文的 Medium 扩展到短文 medium（小写 m）。除了更简短的形式外，Mastodon 还带来了围绕联盟概念的重要创新。
|
||||
|
||||
因此，看起来 Medium 正在试水和尝试新的东西。
|
||||
|
||||
对于那些喜欢一目了然的内容而不是冗长信息的用户来说，可能是一件好事。
|
||||
|
||||
如果操作得当，这对他们来说会有很好的效果。
|
||||
|
||||
**那么，你怎样才能加入 Medium 的 Mastodon 平台？
|
||||
|
||||
> 💡 你看，最初，**只有选定的作者和出版物** 才能进入这个 Mastodon 实例。现有的 Medium 用户可以尝试发送一个 [注册请求][9]，但要经过他们的批准。
|
||||
|
||||
因此，如果你发送一个注册请求，你得等待批准。
|
||||
|
||||
他们还计划作为付费会员的额外服务来邀请作家和读者。
|
||||
|
||||
他们已经在为他们的 Mastodon 实例开发一个 “用 Medium 注册” 的选项，这应该是为了让你更容易开始使用。
|
||||
|
||||
关于这一点，他们提到：
|
||||
|
||||
> 有这么多的 Mastodon 实例可供选择，我们计划让 me.dm 一开始就有几个重要的好处：可靠的基础设施和审核，一个短域名让你更容易分享你的用户名，为新用户提供更好的入门培训，以及一个有趣的本地信息源。
|
||||
|
||||
### 去中心化和开源平台的步伐加快了
|
||||
|
||||
去中心化的平台正在变得比人们十年前预期的更加流行。
|
||||
|
||||
最大的促成因素是大型科技公司越来越多的不稳定的变化和决定，迫使用户不断调整他们在社交媒体平台上的互动方式和理由。
|
||||
|
||||
有了开源和去中心化的平台，用户得到了透明度，更多的数据控制，以及更多的自由。
|
||||
|
||||
我们可能没有想到，Mastodon 作为一个平台，逐渐成为各种组织的社区建设的一个重要组成部分。因此，我们非常期待在不久的将来看到更多变化。

Mastodon's Growth Continues, Medium Joins in With its New Community Platform
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Another win for Mastodon's adoption! Medium launches an instance for its users.
|
||||
|
||||
![Mastodon's Growth Continues, Medium Joins in With its New Community Platform][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Mastodon's growth in recent times has been massive; more and more people are switching to this Twitter alternative than ever before.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are not familiar with Mastodon, it is one of the [best mainstream social media alternatives][2] out there, potentially as a replacement for Twitter, which is **completely open-source and decentralized**.
|
||||
|
||||
With constant changes to Twitter and last year's takeover by Elon Musk, more users have taken a keen interest in Mastodon as a platform.
|
||||
|
||||
Vivaldi [recently launched][3] its Mastodon-powered community, and [Mozilla Foundation][4] is also considering something similar.
|
||||
|
||||
Now, [**Medium**][5] has taken a step forward by launching a Mastodon instance.
|
||||
|
||||
### Medium Starts a Mastodon-Powered Community
|
||||
|
||||
In a [recent announcement][6], Medium launched its Mastodon instance at [me.dm][7], focusing on “_helping their authors, publications, and readers find a home in the Fediverse_”.
|
||||
|
||||
The website (or Mastodon instance) aims to be a **dedicated space** for the **users of Medium.**
|
||||
|
||||
![mastodon medium instance][8]
|
||||
|
||||
In other words, itwill be an exclusive social network platform for Medium users.
|
||||
|
||||
With the web platform, they are also venturing into short-form writing of 500 characters or less.
|
||||
|
||||
The **CEO of Medium** mentions:
|
||||
|
||||
> By contrast, Mastodon is primarily for short-form writing of 500 characters or less. Not to be overly punny: Today we are extending what we do into the short-form medium (lowercase m) with an instance on Mastodon, me.dm. Aside from being short-form, Mastodon also brings an important innovation around the concept of federation.
|
||||
|
||||
So, it looks like Medium is testing the waters and trying something new.
|
||||
|
||||
Probably a good thing for users who prefer bite-sized content instead of lengthy information.
|
||||
|
||||
It can work out well for them if done correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
**So, how can you join Medium's Mastodon platform?**
|
||||
|
||||
> 💡 You see, initially, **only select authors and publications** will be given access to this Mastodon instance.Existing Medium users can try sending a [sign-up request][9], subject to their approval.
|
||||
|
||||
So, if you send a signup request, you will have to wait for approval.
|
||||
|
||||
They also **plan to invite writers and readers as an additional service****within their paid membership**.
|
||||
|
||||
They are already working on a '**sign-up with Medium**' option for their Mastodon instance, which is supposed to make it easy to get started.
|
||||
|
||||
On this, they mention that:
|
||||
|
||||
> With so many Mastodon instances to choose from, we plan for me.dm to have a few important benefits out of the gate: reliable infrastructure and moderation, a short domain name to make sharing your username easier, better onboarding for new users, and an interesting local feed.

|

### Decentralized and Open-Source Platforms Picking Up Pace
|
||||
|
||||
Decentralized platforms are becoming more popular than one would have expected a decade ago.
|
||||
|
||||
The big contributing factor is the number of volatile changes/decisions taken by big tech companies forcing users to constantly adjust how/why they interact on a social media platform.
|
||||
|
||||
With an open-source and decentralized platform, users get transparency, more data control, and more freedom.
|
||||
|
||||
We may not have expected Mastodon as a platform to gradually become an essential part of community building for various organizations. So, it will be exciting to see what else we have in store for the near future.
