Aaron Ross Powell ☸️Protocols, not platforms. That we let ourselves get suckered into platforms over protocols is one of the biggest unforced errors in the history of the net, and if Musk makes that widely obvious, it will be a significant silver lining in his sophomoric conflagration.
10¢@arossp I’m really interested to see what comes of the AT protocol (atproto.com). Hopefully a v1 release isn’t too far away.
@_tenpenny I don't have a strong sense of what AT offers different from ActivityPub. I know identities are cryptographic, instead of being tied to instances, but what else?
