What's the most intriguing graffiti you've seen? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

I haven't seen very much graffiti because I've lived in mostly rural areas my entire life. However, when I visited relatives in Philadelphia and Baltimore I was blown away and very impressed by all the graffiti that I saw.

Northsky Social Cooperative announces project to build a new ATproto platform for the benefit of marginalized communities that prioritizes the 2SLGBTQIA+ community in c/[email protected]

Thanks for sharing that article. ATproto and ActivityPub are very different indeed. I can understand why someone would be hesitant to join if they preferred the way ActivityPub is structured.

They should just use activity pub.

Well, they've already stated that they are going to be using ATproto.

The worker cooperative states:

We’re excited to announce NorthSky Social Cooperative where we are building a new ATproto platform for the benefit of marginalized communities that prioritizes the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. After increasing hostility toward these communities we are taking action to provide a platform built by and for us.

They go on to say:

A shift towards federation has enabled the survival of marginalized communities and @bsky.app which developed the AT Protocol has created a foundation for us to build Northsky Social on top of. As such we will be fully compatible with @bsky.app where users will be able to communicate across the federated ATproto space.

You are describing how non-brainwashed educated and intelligent people behave. Unfortunately, here in the USA, there are a very large percentage of brainwashed people (that may or may not be educated and intelligent).

I hope whomever is working on Ladybird doesn't fuck it up. It would be great to have real competition in the web browser market.
