The Ghost of the Subway (Le fantôme du métro) (2022) [6 min] by Eliott Meyer, Morgane Ghionga, Alexis Gougeot, Mahery Ramarlah and Waysson Mouret | #France
@tournesol c’eet beaucoup moins léger qu’au départ. Je trouve que y a la fois un côté overkill et un côté limité à la con, genre certaines fonctionnalités ne sont dispo qu’en utilisant des services tiers payants, y a pas de place pour des trucs custom (bon la dernière fois que j’ai regardé le truc en détail date un peu, mais ça m’étonnerait que ça ait beaucoup changé)
#Ghost#ActivityPub#Decentralization#OpenWeb: "They say the best way to predict the future is to create it, so two weeks ago we shared our intention to connect Ghost with the ActivityPub Network to bring back the open web. We were delighted when our ideas managed to spread even further and wider than we'd imagined, and that so many of you signed up to be a part of the journey."
"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."
@molly0xfff In my case, it's not hope but defiance. I don't believe my website counts for much, or that independent operators alone can break the spell of network effects and liberate people who prefer their digital chains, but the power of Satan compels me to press on regardless; every day my website stays up is itself a small victory.
@eribosot@germany@folklore I dunno - "groom" in this tale stands for "caretaker for the horses", and this doesn't strike me as a high-income profession.
@juergen_hubert@germany@folklore Aha, didn't realize that. Still, this person seems to be in a better position than the paupers to get food to them --that's why the "ghost" appeals to him, right?
