We shouldn't be let down if an open social platform doesn't attract billions of users. If you need to reach more than a million then you might qualify as Big Tech yourself. Let me clarify, I'd love for billions to be in the fediverse, but in a much more distributed way. That's the whole point to me. Capable of reaching most but not wanting Mass Media or Big Tech reach. And I think those ideas will (I hope) permeate more than Open Social, but future business and ownership of all kinds.

Happy Holidays Dave! Need to do lunch in 2025!

Even if news organizations fixed their reporting, they are still some of the worst participants in the surveillance economy. So unless you are ProPublica or some of the various independent local news orgs, you can't even cover a critical topic like privacy in good faith. This will be the last straw, as the organizations won't be able to adapt to the privacy demands headed toward them. (I know, I know, nothing new here)

And that's if you can realistically get those speeds even if you pay for them. Probably not out of the box or when using wifi

It's perfectly okay to admit "I don't know" in any circumstance in life where it is true

I'm not religious about it .For example, say you want to make JSON version of this available, the URL wouldn't change (the resource part of REST), you'd just send a different content-type in the header. REST really shines in cases like APIs where the URL `/subscriber` e.g. can use the HTTP verbs GET POST DELETE along with a path or param like `/subscriber/123` to indicate the specific subscriber. It helps developer consumers, but may or may not make a difference in many cases

restful way would (for your URL structure) `/blog?sort=trending&range=month&limit=100`

Or `/trending/daily` `/trending/weekly` `/trending/monthly`

Ever find any new info about this? I'm creating my follower endpoint now and curious if I need to do something undocumented

Interesting analogy. Or it will be like mold spores. Present everywhere and safe . . . until it suddenly is not and you need to tear it all down and start over

I think you are 100% right that cross-posting is a requirement right now.
In an ideal world wouldn't cross-subscribe be the better goal?
In other words, I wouldn't need to follow Dave on Mastodon even if I only use Mastodon. I'd just subscribe to Scripting News from wherever I choose to read.
No need to duplicate content we want to syndicate.

Was thinking of what a native open social full featured CMS would look like from the ground up

Some people never stop to think, "Maybe I'm wrong." That's the biggest problem with both the internet and American culture. And it fuels Both the left and right insanity that pervades discourse

But we began calling this Hackfest in Germany "Hacktoberfest" as the it was happening and the beer flowed. For all I know it wasn't the first usage but I noticed it cropping up soon after https://wiki.mozilla.org/OpenNews/2011_Archive/hackfest/berlin

I'm somewhat confident I coined the term Hacktoberfest
