The #SocialWeb or #OpenSocial will never reach household status until it switches from Platform First to #PeopleFirst; from dev-centric to non-techie.

#Fediverse: move or host your own instance

#ATmosphere: if a service goes down, create your own and read the old lexicon

Martin Fowler, one of the best-known names in software, published his numbers in September: Bluesky and Mastodon send him far less traffic than LinkedIn or X.

He keeps posting there anyway. His reason: a "clear preference for open platforms over the walled gardens."

Folks!!! Not really a webring (yet) but after much suffering on stream, I've made an itty-bitty ATproto "spaces" + "communities" starter, featuring BOTH the spaces lexicons (more or less established), and a stub of the opensocial community lexicons (still WIP).

It's on..... 👀
Screenshot of an unstyled web page titled "ATProto Spaces Demo." It says "Signed in as @essentialrandom.spaces-alpha.bsky.network (did:plc:54drt6ppyrrq6dpiudieyuzk)" above a Logout button. Under the heading "Your metadata Space," the text "Your space exists." is followed by a JSON block. The block shows the URI at://did:plc:54drt6ppyrrq6dpiudieyuzk/space/community.opensocial.temp.about/self, a readPolicy of com.atproto.simplespace.defs#publicPolicy, a writePolicy of com.atproto.simplespace.defs#memberListPolicy, and appAccess set to com.atproto.simplespace.defs#open. Below are two forms, "Create community metadata Space" and "Delete community metadata Space." Each has a "Space type" text field prefilled with "community.opensocial.te" and cut off, plus a button labeled "Create metadata Space" or "Delete metadata Space.

Big win: the EU cracking down on Big Tech's addictive design and monopoly grip is real progress. But fines alone won't be enough. We need to force these platforms to talk to each other, like email does. No more walled gardens. Let people choose where they belong. #wsocial #ATProtocol #OpenSocial

This is great! We don’t have anyone running with @atprotocol.dev since we swapped for the @atmosphere.community, for pure dev centric info.

If you have ideas / would like to work with it, LMK

We made it an OpenSocial group so you could aggregate posts with it cc @brittanyellich.com
