"No foul play suspected" what the fuck, what the fuck

shit's fucked

Despite everything that has happened since, I still think the two blogposts I wrote about Bluesky/ATProto and decentralization have held up quite well. The big difference is that some other participants in the ecosystem are coming online, which is good (Blacksky's efforts in particular). I do think that we *are* seeing the beginnings of some of the technical concerns laid out in my posts, but maybe it's best to let things just play out more so the problems can better highlight themselves

things are going much better now than before and that's thanks to the people who are in my life being really good actually

You don't have to listen to me, but: Just a reminder that on the fediverse and on the ATmosphere to be careful about public comments that could be interpreted as a call to violence. Especially given recent events. Particularly on ATProto, which is designed to be fully public and indexed and certainly is, but also on the fediverse, which is mostly public enough in general too.

Oh is this the new scam Are we gonna see a million of these a day now Obviously, this is a phishing attack, but well, maybe it's less obvious to some. If you see a post like this, it's phishing. I have to say that icon for the "mastodon support desk headset" is kinda funny tho

I'm handing

ActivityPub Rocks!

over to the community! And I wrote a post about it

Handing off activitypub.rocks to the ActivityPub community -- ActivityPub Rocks!

I did the original design of activitypub.rocks 9 years ago and I haven't done much to keep it up to date. So the W3C SocialWG is taking over instead! As a nice sendoff, the blogpost also includes some fun AP history, which I detail a bit in this thread too 🧵
