I ran into this by coincidence and you don’t know me, so ignore at your will. However, my experience in both social networks and currencies suggest that if you try to limit max count, you’re making it more gameable. What might work is “weight”: the more people endorse me, the more my endorsement has value. The more I spread that to others, the less one endorsement means. It’s still very gameable and a market will form, but it balances better than a hard limit. Federated accounting will be a bit of a challenge.

Estonia is correct. The responsibility to keep children safe falls on adults and platform operators, not on the kids. If social media isn't safe for children, it's not safe for adults either, because the safety this is about isn't about the content, but of what the platforms do with our data.

It's true Signal uses APN to wake up the receiver's phone, but it does not pass any message content through Apple's servers. It could not, because Signal itself is unable to read the encrypted message content. The definitive proof of this is in the Signal source code. This is for iPhone, similar implementation for Android in FcmSender.java

As @npub17m8…rsw8 correctly points out, Bluesky has created a conflict of operating both a "neutral" network as well as a "moderated" service, and ends up failing on both objectives.
It's also curious how they now have authenticity verification as DNS links, "decentralized" verification labels, and a self-operated verification, and fail to apply those consistently, too.

Though this goes a bit deep in the networks nerdery, @npub17m8…rsw8 does explain in more detail the mismatch between ATproto and ActivityPub. He's also correct that Mastodon does muddy the waters. Nor would ATproto necessarily have to be this far into individuals-ahead-of-communities, but for the lack of any meaningful other services than Bluesky.

2026-01-24 14:23:36 UTC

It's been clear for a while Bluesky isn't a good actor. Defenses to this are either "no alternative" or "but ATproto". These are both weak arguments.
For alternative: fediverse. And on protocol: Bluesky is so dominant, it effectively is the protocol.
I don't like Mastodon's dominant position on fedi either, but where Bluesky PBC is 99% of AT, mastodon.social is about 30% of active fedi.
Still not de-bridging, though.

Capturing Maduro was not the end of this operation. There are 30,000 Cuban military operators in Venezuela. Either USA committed itself to a large scale ground war against an entrenched force, or they handed reins to another foreign military placed to execute a counter-coup.

I have no idea what the state of play in Venezuela really is, but watch for:
- Cuba, who have been Maduro's source of power and chief beneficiary of Venezuelan oil
- Iran, who are at this very moment trying to repress a civilian uprising
- North Korea, who will want to demonstrate having nukes as a warning against trying this there
- China, who might choose to use a moment of distraction to move against Taiwan
- Chechnya, which although unrelated is facing a post-Kadyrov moment at same time

I'd like to suggest here that a certain amount of porosity is a tool. If I'm opted in, that means I want to be bridged, but also that I want to see interaction to what of my posts is bridged.
If I'm not opted in, but do interact with a bridged post, the previous means a social contract should be held and I shouldn't be surprised it is held. It doesn't mean my *other* posts should be bridged. But any like, boost, reply to a bridged post? Yes.

Related to @npub1fdr…lvhs thread: the largest (by far) not-Bluesky ATproto stack is #BridgyFed. But, because of toxic attitudes on Fedi, Bridgy users are cut off from seeing most Bluesky users, even if those users follow their accounts.

The queen by herself won't have been able to build a very large nest, so the nest being found sort of implies at least some workers were hatched.

The wasps escaped before their nest was found and destroyed. Without knowing the species, it is impossible to tell where the Mutant Queen is brooding her next army.

Many times over a long period, most recently this month. A nuclear weapon isn't technically difficult to build - the only significant hurdle is a stockpile of weapons-grade fissile material.

One million and 340 dead or seriously injured russian casualties. But the instigators of this illegal war are still sitting comfortably at the kremlin while their henchmen have launched over 40 thousand drones at Ukrainian civilians.

Strikes true. Yet at the other end of the same story is that the 1% AT&T research tax came from a hugely inflated monopoly revenue. It is arguable that striking down the monopolies has created more benefits.
The problem today is that the monopolies are returning with no intention of funding any of the research.

Yesterday's bomber strikes probably do not impact RuAF ability to use the planes for strike packages - they don't need many for that. If an A-50 was struck, that will have an impact. The strikes will affect Ru strategic nuclear force projection though. But more than that, the truck inspections security theater which has now begun will crush logistics. Next, SBU should repeat this using rail cargo containers to halt also rail logistics. RT @npub1par…c9c8

Hong Kong flagged Xin Xin Tian 2 was on top of the Estlink 2 cable at the time it was severed for as of yet unidentified reason. The ship had just left St Petersburg destined to Port Said, Egypt.

It does bear to note that Flamanville-3, Hinkley Point C and Olkiluoto 3 are all based on the same EPR design, though strangely one-offs regardless, and that Hinkley Point apparently has benefited none at all despite construction starting 12 years after OL3.

Apps have always been able to do this, right? So it has no bearing on the server setting.

What does this mean for an app user? I haven't gone to check, but presumably this affects the browser behavior of the follower, based on their own server's setting, not the poster or their server. I can't see it changing anything for someone not using the Mastodon web UI, though. Am I wrong?

This is the kind of terror Ukraine is fighting against with one hand tied in their back, due to weak and timid support and lack of permission to strike where it counts.

What was complicated? You need a domain name and access to DNS records. Send a message to the bridge to request your DID, add it to a custom DNS record and send another message to the bridge to tell it the name you chose. Done.
