@okpierre I really only know of Mastodon and Pixelfed. Are there others that got any notable traction?

@mpanhans @okpierre I would love to see the fediverse adopt the proposed W3 standard Web Monetization.

Associate a payment pointer with each post. Fediverse clients select the payment pointer of the most focused on post to get paid for the time it is in focus or use the iframe method for multiple concurrent payments.

Seems like a good candidate for a grant from grantfortheweb.org/

@okpierre I know some won't agree, but I think the Fedi needs more monetization. I'm not talking VC funding or anything, but just creative ways for projects to monetize so that they can be sustained. So that developers and maintainers can develop expertise in the technology, and do this as more than a hobby. I mean nothing wrong with people contributing as a hobby. But being able to dedicate more time would allow more great things to be created in the Fediverse.

What is the best Flash-like authoring app for making (I assume) SVG or HTML canvas animations these days?

@okpierre I cannot even get most people I know who care about decentralized tech to care about the fediverse. Not sure it was ever alive.

Help us ban federal use of invasive and harmful face surveillance. Tell your members of congress to co-sponsor the Facial Recognition and Biometric Technology Moratorium Act. eff.org/deeplinks/2020/06/now-

I can’t help but feel Visa acquiring Tink is Visa neutralizing/extinguishing the strongest threat to its business in Europe.

PSD2 enabled bank-to-bank payments to be as easy as credit cards for consumers.

@fribbledom Same. Make a video to show it off! I feel like I've forgotten it.

I am having a good day. I hope yours is too.

Just realized that I have not noticed awful privacy-invading retargeted ads in a long time.

Firefox’s built-in tracker blocking (no additional ad blocker) is working extremely well.

June is bring-your-sexuality-and-gender-identity-to-work month.

I wanted to know which articles on my website received payments from Coil subscribers.

Using @plausible Analytics, I am able to track API events.

I preferred when people blogged instead of email newslettered.

Ransom DDoS attacks were an expensive common problem for even small businesses before Cloudflare and Fastly.

For people advocating for decentralization after : How can a small e-commerce company defend itself from DDoS ransom without big tech?

@rysiek Apple is far from perfect. I criticize it more than I praise, but it is worthy of praise regarding prioritizing privacy into the technical foundation of its product.

No other company is doing better engineering of this kind at Apple's level of reach. Not Google. Not Samsung. Not Microsoft. Not Amazon.

A well designed product must not only give the user a super power, it must also not make the person using it more vulnerable while using it.

I am still impressed by Apple’s engineering privacy into the foundation of so many of its announcements yesterday.

Reminder: Apple prohibits Firefox and other Web browsers from allowing extensions in their iOS apps.

I don't want Universal Control. I don't want to have to own both an iPad and a Mac for creating. I want a macOS device with a touch and pen input.
