Happy Bandi Chhor Divas to all celebrating today! The Sikh holiday is a celebration of the day the Sixth Guru was released from prison, carrying with him 52 Hindu kings. It's a time to celebrate freedom and reflect on the importance of human rights. #BandiChhorDivas https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreibteif4hj5dfbqyxzqcelikhbln7lujlzoo7wgbh6zwujsuughdza

Your profile on the Open Social Web looks the same as your profile on Big Tech social platforms, but there's a big difference. Your profile is no longer a profile on a platform, but an address across a web. That's why we recommend filling out your profile here carefully. #BlueskyTips #SocialMedia https://boletus.us-west.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:vnycpb2e4lh4tc7oyr3n2jvh&cid=bafkreigbr4qnqfc7sllbj63rt44zd5udbmasnae2fhfplfiudvljk7a4ba
"Where the social connection for a Facebook Group is the Meta walled garden, our community apps connect through to the open social web, on the Fediverse, and, across the bridge, Bluesky." - @Michael Foster [www.blog-pat.ch/building-app...](
