@rwg @inquiline thanks you both for this work. It is exciting to see fresh conceptual frames arise through study and experience in open social.

One thing the "lossy" concept brought up for me was the anti-lossy character of Bluesky and the crypto socials that use Merkle Trees: https://protocol.ai/blog/transcription-bluesky-blog/ That actually shocked me, that the data structure is built around cryptographic preservation, as I think of social chatter as intuitively lossy.
