I wrote about Alex Winter as a surprising ally in the fight for creative independence. Transparency and courage can be rebellious acts. https://inkican.com/alex-winter-unlikely-mesh-supporter/ #scifi #MastoWriters #BlueSkyBooks #openweb #indieauthor

@Palky55 after looking at the work we have done with #undercurrents #indymedia #ruffcuts #visionontv and now #OMN what would you suggest the path is to reboot this community of action based on #openweb and #affinity paths?

It needs to happen,

Apple is allowing alternative browser engines on iOS in Japan with iOS 26.2, ending the WebKit-only rule in response to antitrust law. 🧭

The change expands browser choice but applies only regionally, with Apple retaining control via entitlements and privacy rules. ⚖️

Will similar openness reach Europe under the DMA? 🇪🇺

Apple Opens iOS to Alternative Browser Engines in Japan via iOS 26.2

Apple is now permitting alternative browser engines on iOS devices in Japan under the Mobile Software Competition Act, starting with iOS 26.2, to boost competition and innovation. This allows browsers like Chrome and Firefox to use non-WebKit engines, enhancing user choice while maintaining security standards. The change sets a precedent for global regulatory shifts.

We fucked up… and that matters because we still have agency

Let’s start with the uncomfortable truth: we fucked up the last 20 years of #openweb tech. Not “they” fucked it up. Not only #BigTech, not only venture capital, not only governments and surveillance states. We did, especially those of us who were closest to the tools, the protocols, the decisions - the geeks, developers, architects, and maintainers who shaped how this stuff actually worked in practice. That matters, because it means we still have direct power over what happens next. […]
