Interesting the @openvibe.social / @openvibe@mastodon.social seems to have stopped communicating on masto or bluesky. Disappointing
it's crazy that if you're a cat, your only two life outcomes are eating out of a trash can or getting treated like a little baby

1. Bluesky doesn’t downrank links 2. You can choose your own algorithm from among thousands 3. The whole app is open source This keeps it a free and open platform by design, leading to better click-throughs and traffic to your site. We 💙 the open web.

New blog post! Bridging vs cross-posting. They’re similar, but bridged conversations tend to be more unified across networks, while cross-posting ends up more fragmented. Feedback is welcome! And friendly reminder, if you appreciate what you do here, feel free to check out our Patreon!
The Nazis holocaust took place with no social media, and in a state where the press was tightly controlled. There was no detailed daily feed of the horrors. The entire world can see tens of thousands being shot and blown up while millions are starved in Gaza, yet nothing changes. Naked imperialism
It is fucking insane that we had a decade of people complaining about the dangers of cancel culture, and now literally hundreds of thousands of people are being purged from government jobs for ideological reasons, but that is not cancel culture.
just watched a video on Obsidian that described it as "future-proof," i.e. it uses open file formats so you can easily migrate to a different note-taking app & you're not locked in. could borrow that to explain bluesky decentralized → open → billionaire-proof → future-proof
