There’s a new movement on the block. I like to call it “open social”. There are competing visions for what “open social” should be like. I think the AT Protocol created by Bluesky is the most convincing take on it so far. It’s not perfect, and it’s a work in progress, but there’s nothing I know quite like it.<br/> <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #atprotocol #bluesky #opensocial #social</p> Wed, 15 Oct 2025 17:16:52 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:37810 atprotocol bluesky opensocial social https://blog.muni.town/personal-data-storage-idea/ Personal Data Storage has long since escaped containment as a concept pertaining to any specific protocol. Some implementations of it will be more mainstream than others, but pragmatic data coops can be protocol-agnostic and storage formats are transmutable. As long as we have sufficient control of our own data there will always be a way to restart our social graph and digital presence elsewhere in the event of platform collapse. Let’s make the web personal again.<br/> <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #atprotocol #data #personal #solid #web #webdev</p> Mon, 06 Oct 2025 22:47:20 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:37788 atprotocol data personal solid web webdev https://dustycloud.org/blog/how-decentralized-is-bluesky/ Bluesky is built by good people who care, and it is providing something that people desperately want and need. If you are looking for a Twitter replacement, you can find it in Bluesky today. However, I stand by my assertions that Bluesky is not meaningfully decentralized and that it is certainly not federated according to any technical definition of federation we have had in a decentralized social network context previously. To claim that Bluesky is decentralized or federated in its current form moves the goalposts of both of those terms, which I find unacceptable. However, "credible exit" is a reasonable term to describe what Bluesky is aiming for. It is Bluesky's term, and I think Bluesky should embrace that term fully in all contexts and work that they can.<br/> <p><strong>Tags:</strong> #activitypub #atprotocol #bluesky #bsky #mastodon #social</p> Fri, 22 Nov 2024 18:51:07 +0000 linkding-ssg:bookmark:29835 activitypub atprotocol bluesky bsky mastodon social
