FediForum is one of the supporters of the European Social Stack declaration that was published today.

in the cooperative spirit of FediForum, we are glad that so many -- often competing -- organizations are coming together to the common cause ...
Just launched at Public Spaces in Amsterdam, The European Social Stack Open Declaration!

A set of common principles agreed by complementary technology leaders 🫶

Read the declaration, add your signature, and share: european.social

Today at #FediForum, we launched a feature we sneak-peeked at #AtmosphereConf last month!

You can now migrate from Mastodon to *any* PDS in the Atmosphere, as long as you have access to it 🤩

Protocol convergence — I really need to record the talk I prepared after FediForum last year.

Essentially AT Protocol will probably end up borrowing ideas from ActivityPub, and ActivityPub will borrow ideas from AT Protocol.
The problem with using ActivityPub for Twitter-like social apps is that message passing does not scale well.

But message passing is very well suited to lower scale social apps like DMs, group DMs, and anything with < ~1,000 recipients.

AT protocol PDS-to-PDS message passing would be really cool.
IMHO fully featured DMs for AT / Bluesky isn't very complex if you accept that email-level security (TLS) is sufficient.

The complexity comes from insisting on Signal-like E2EE.

All we actually need is AT protocol-based PDS-to-PDS email as a core feature.

Would unlock tons of apps beyond DMs too.
