It’s interesting, my video feeds on TikTok, instagram, and YouTube shorts have so little resemblance of each other. Totally different kinds of videos, not just topics or creators, but totally different genres. Nothing alike. It’s weird because I know all the videos I see on one are uploaded to the other two. I am not trying to get the algorithms to diverge. I interact in mostly the same way to the same videos on all three but get a really different experience. Given that they are mostly clones of each other this is surprising. Is that the case for anyone else? When I open divine.video I mostly get testing and debug videos. So no comparison yet.

I’m in Dubai for this creators summit and they brought us out in to the desert for an evening activity, which turns out included a neon horse.

There’s a debate raging over in the Bluesky world about whether or not infrastructure providers on ATprotocol should be neutral carriers or if people running things like PDS servers should be able to choose who they host. It’s an interesting read and worth thinking about. From a Nostr perspective it’s like arguing for a custodial system then being upset at the power dynamics that exist because of that. I’m curious what folks think. I think the poster kicked a hornets nest, not understanding how communities of users react to being told what they should or shouldn’t do with their own servers. Thoughts?
