My thread here yesterday about this cycle between open and closed protocols inspired me to write a longer-form piece on the subject:

I'm curious to know which other parts of the people are exploring besides Mastodon. Who is using , , or others? I'd love to know more and get recommendations on how to approach.

I feel like I haven't fully embraced the full Fediverse yet.

Hmmm… Mastodon makes me think of social media from 10+ years ago. Let’s do #WriterWednesday

Writers I follow who are here, off the top of my head: @JacquiCastle @Ken_McConnell @johngreen @stephenfry @scalzi @kevinhearne @neilhimself

I’m sure I missed people, my apologies. I’ll do better next time. :)

After the dotcom bust 20 years ago, there was a shift away from attempts to turn the Internet into a portal owned by a single company (AOL, Yahoo, etc) using incompatible and proprietary tech, in favor of open standards.

This spawned a heydey for things like self-hosted blogs, RSS and XMPP powered by Linux. People rejected lock-in and embraced the benefits and freedom open standards brought. Even Big Tech embraced these standards.

Can we get eco sister twitter.com/hiitaylorblake on here? Emmanuel the Emu's bird flu recovery is really the only reason I need to check Twitter anymore.

Who keeps you checking Twitter?

When your spouse asks you to pick up a white ceramic whale menorah at Target and you have to actually ask whether it’s for Hanukkah or Twitter social commentary.

But why not both?
