I'll be doing a short lil' update on the multi-protocol open social web at #AtmosphereConf this Sunday!

It's a direct follow-up to my talk from last year's conference. I gave that presentation when we'd just started @anewsocial, and it was about the dreams we had about what we *could* build.

Fun fact: we built *all* of it.

Our very own @snarfed.org sat down with @pfefferle to chat about the open social web, interoperability, and building bridges πŸ‘πŸΌ

There Are a Million Fediverses, and They’re All Regulated

We're at a bit of a strange moment in the history of the Internet. Long-standing assumptions about platform freedoms and responsibilities are being tested by a wave of regulation from countries far and wide, including extranational jurisdiction where all of a sudden people are finding themselves subject to laws of countries they've never been to. The age of self-regulation is ending. In 2021 there were three OECD safety regulators. Today, a mere five years later, there are 28. The […]

When we launched Bounce, @[email protected]'s cross-protocol migrator, ppl asked us to add in-protocol migrations. We said no - we think protocol-based services should show what makes them better than closed platforms in their own UX. So happy to see @[email protected] + @[email protected] do exactly that πŸ‘πŸΌ
