exploring the fediverse

I’m exploring the #fediverse looking for Italian (and/or .EN and/or .FR) #experimentalwriting — and traces of #asemicwriting too.

But it seems that very very few people dealing with that kind of stuff live under the fediverse free flag. (Is there anybody out there?!)

I have (and I like and use a lot) my #mastodon space here: @differx@mastodon.uno, while I get no echoes by my #friendica account https://poliverso.org/profile/differx : friendica is quite the opposite of an artist-overcrowded area. I find there are great political posts by The Globalist and Radio Onda d’Urto, ok —and (for now) that’s all.

Well. I’m slowly scanning the fediverse here and there but I think I’ll never use some of the (undoubtedly interesting and useful) account I set up.
E.g., I see there are very few pieces of asemic stuff in diaspora. I found this one, https://diasp.org/posts/6812084 by Lucinda Sherlock, yes, and it is a gorgeous work, but it has been published seven years ago.

Some zones of the fediverse resemble a desert.

I go on exploring & I’ll tell you if pools of actual water surface…
