This interview with @rileytestut by @imdavidpierce is SO good. Super exciting vision of an App Store powered by developers who are supported with Patreon or similar. This is a really big idea. Also love that Riley has been active in the fediverse since 2018!

Got my first white supremacist reply from the fediverse after posting an article about Elon from Flipboard.

I reported and blocked the account & instance whose admin is also clearly KKK. That instance will now be blocked on flipboard.com and flipboard.social. It will also be shared with other instance admins for them to take action if they deem appropriate. Took 2 mins to help make the fediverse a bit better tonight.

The cool thing is that anyone can do this too. Decentralized moderation FTW.

Ryan ignited a firestorm of excitement and criticism with his latest project, BridgyFed which connects Mastodon and Bluesky, two communities that share a passion for the open social web but are powered by two different protocols.
