What we lost when the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act — and why we need a new one

My talk from last month's @atproto.nyc, on Atmospheric Stacks! How the Atmosphere can compete with incumbents like Substack — not by recreating 'em app for app, but by replacing 'em collectively, as an ecosystem. With @leaflet.pub & @standard.site as case study + expanded with a few *addenda* :)

If there's one person in media not to f* with it's @katie-drummond.bsky.social. If you got an email from @wired.com yesterday, you too will appreciate her badass style defending their MSG reporting.

Big social media platforms control our content & keep us locked in their walled gardens. So why don’t we rebuild it? That’s exactly that @divine.video is doing. @rabble.nz sat down with @louderback.com at @vidcon.bsky.social to dig into social media & what comes next. youtu.be/JWCY5ih25bc
