   Life in Weeks is a cool idea, but here's why I'm not going to share mine with you. https://werd.io/2025/life-in-weeks

     @ben would you share this with friends? Friends of friends?

     @ben this feels like an important Social Web use case.

     @evan I would! Friends and family would be neat. I don't have a great way to do that on my website though.

     @copiesofcopies @ben Great, but we can make sure that Ben's updates are distributed only to friends using ActivityPub, too.

     @ben @evan have you been following @cwebber’s work on @spritely? I’m certain it’s the future of decentralized trust networks.

     @evan Trustworthy access permissions are a big deal. Particularly given our current context.

     @philip @copiesofcopies @ben do you ever do followers-only distribution on Mastodon? Like that.

     @evan I don’t doubt that you’re right, do you have an example to point to? It’s not obvious to me how. Sorry if that’s daft. @copiesofcopies @ben

     @evan Right, that makes sense. Sorry for the stupid question.

     I guess in the back of my mind I was assuming you were referring to some of the E2EE work, or something else new.

     @philip @copiesofcopies @ben I don't think any of the long-form text services right now support followers-only posts, though. So it's a valid question!
