Such a delight to sit down with the great @a_greenberg for a long engaged convo on surveillance, AI, my wild path through tech, and how by rejecting the toxic norm Signal provides a shining model for better, healthier tech futures♥️
On its 10th anniversary, Signal’s president wants to remind you that the world’s most secure communications platform is a nonprofit. It’s free. It doesn’t track you or serve you ads. It pays its engineers very well. And it’s a go-to app for hundreds of millions of people.
I’ve found the BlueSky team to be very purposeful. It’s not run or owned by Jack, it’s not Jack’s thing, although he is on the board (it’s a Public Benefit Corporation in the US).
Jay Graber is the CEO & founder who fought for it to be independent of Twitter & calling it Jack’s thing erases her. It’s not great.
It’s another open protocol that makes different trade offs than ActivityPub.
I wrote more about the protocol and open source code earlier https://cosocial.ca/@boris/110149727703071833
I have a small number of BlueSky https://blueskyweb.xyz/ invite codes to hand out. It is an implementation of the #AtProtocol https://atproto.com/ for building decentralized social networking. Users own their #DID based accounts and can use their own domain name as a username, just by adding a DNS TXT record. Right now there is a first party iOS and web client, and a bunch of devs have been hacking https://github.com/bluesky-social/atproto-ecosystem DM me here about what domain you’ll use as your name
