"In 2024, for the first time, it finally feels like we have a critical mass of people and platforms who are interested in rewilding the internet to bring back what we lost, and create something new. ... There's a palpable feeling that this just might be the year of the open web."

Zappify Mosquito Killer - One user, Sam, from Reddit, couldn't be happier with his Zappify Mosquito Zapper. He shared his experience saying, "I've tried various mosquito zappers in the past, but the Zappify 2.0 is hands down the best one.

@kev I'm a little concerned about the notifications for severed relationships. I don't think it's a bad idea, but I really want it to be obvious why the relationship was severed. If randominstance.social decides to block Fosstodon, we may not have any idea why that happened, and if people on Fosstodon are losing relationships over the block, those people might be rightly coming to us and our team for some WTF conversation. It would be helpful if the notifications point to the actioning instance.
Former CEO of Twitter wanted to build a social protocol no-one can control, like SMTP or HTTP for social media.

A very revealing interview. I now see even more future in W3C’s ActivityPub.
