the internet starting to re-fragment into having Actual Websites again as centralized social media self-destructs is unironically one of the absolute best, most positive things happening rn

Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Blue checks are coming to Bluesky!

It's an interesting hybrid model that combines centralized verification (Bluesky says you're legit) with decentralized verification (an outside org says you're legit).
link to blogpost is dated april 21st, so monday. can't wait for my bluecheck 😊

this is why we are building passivhaus social housing in seattle

the airtightness and 3pane/triple sealed windows, plus heat recovery ventilation work to protect residents from wildfire smoke.

it's even possible w/ centralized or semi-centralized systems to prefilter smoke
Wildfire smoke from a trifecta of catastrophic wildfires will roll in Tuesday and could cause the air quality to be unhealthy and reduce visibility.
Wildfire smoke from Spokane could be unhealthy in Seattle and reduce visibility

The US constitution was built to avoid centralized power and tyranny.

It is not the constitution that is failing us.

It is the partisans who have promised to uphold the constitution that are failing us.

Your Vanguard accounts get folded into a centralized Congressional equivalent that's run by a division of the SSA.

IQuick Thread: I really love people who work to take care of the spaces we share online. Because Bluesky is less centralized, more of that work falls to us.

As in all things…look for the helpers.

This isn’t just about surveillance. It’s about control. A centralized system tied to your identity paves the way for blacklists, digital profiling, and political repression.

Odd how all the crime seems to be centralized in federal buildings tho

Trump says he’s designating “antifa” a terrorist group and launching a probe into finding of antifa activities. The FBI has long said antifa doesn’t really have a centralized structure or leadership.

“The platforms were no longer social, in any meaningful sense of the word, but rather centralized and exercising constant (algorithmic) editorial discretion.”

Thought this piece was quite astute 👇
Since the early 2010s, social media has been identified with protesters. In the early days, social media was an effective tool for activists to organize and communicate with one another and directly with the public, providing counternarratives to the ones laid out in popular coverage.

traditionally the New York Times prefers a centralized network of influencers, such as the New York Times
"Mr. Mamdani is a master of new media... But as mayor, he has also been able to use taxpayer funds to create a sprawling network of hundreds of friendly influencers to boost his priorities, provide positive depictions of his administration and enhance his popularity."
Inside Mamdani’s Private Army of Public Influencers (Gift Article)
Zohran Mamdani is seen as a social media wizard. Some of his popularity stems from an influencer operation run by the mayor’s office.

People: Oh good bluesky is decentralized so we can never have a repeat of what happened to twitter

Bluesky: we only have one centralized server, DMs only work cause they're centralized, and we're going to add centralized verification

People: *applauding, for some fucking reason*

Orbán "consolidated media control through centralized propaganda, market pressure and loyal billionaires."
We're in the Orbanization of our media system now. It's happening.

CNN's Brian Stelter drew this assessment from Gábor Scheiring, "who experienced Viktor Orbán's autocratic power plays in Hungary firsthand as a member of the Hungarian parliament." view.newsletters.cnn.com/messages/175...

Centralized networks and media are weakness for our community

Decentralization is our survival
Under mounting pressure from lawmakers and amidst a moral panic about young people’s social media use, Meta introduced a new set of “sensitive content” restrictions which led to the downranking and hiding of LGBTQ content.
Instagram blocked teens from searching LGBTQ-related content for months
Posts with LGBTQ+ hashtags were hidden under Meta's “sensitive content” policy which restricts "sexually suggestive content"

Stalin represents a failure state for communism: capture by a bad actor. The lesson we should take from him is not "we need Good authoritarianism", it's "power should be centralized enough to make quick decisions, but not so centralized that individuals can order death squads around"

i think people are missing the forest for the trees with this one. RFK Jr wants complete centralized knowledge of every American's health in order to exact control on what medications are allowed and in order to fabricate "evidence" for each and all of his nonsense theories.
Gun registry? No. Autism registry? Yes?

Fuck ALL the way off.

january 6th was a mob of people attacking a single, lightly defended location in order to stop a centralized process of vote counting. for a midterm election, the comparable thing would be about 150,000 january 6ths across the entire united states.

To Ted Cruz, yes America, as any centralized government that steals power and land of the people, is illegitimate.
