The open social web - both #Fediverse and #Blusky /#Atmosphere owe @samir and @FedicaHQ a ton for their forward looking tools embracing the social web.

Excited to see them launch 2.0 and am checking it out.

"The Next Information War Is Already Here" - Check out this article I co-wrote with @WillRobinson...

We work to frame very big changes coming to the political digital landscape faster than most think.

Up for any thoughts, notes, and appreciate all... #AI

@johentsch Thanks!

@pip @jakehamilton @Vivaldi Hmmm. What do you not trust on Chromium browser? Vivaldi has stripped out nuetered any of the Google advertising and surveillance code.

@verge Oops.

@mayly Yes. Here is the full report: https://www.psgconsulting.com/research-publications/potential-risks-of-ideological-skewing

"In research published in February, Dewey found that far-right sites and sites with 'very low' factual integrity had set up their websites to be easily seen by A.I. tools, compared with outlets that were center-left or highly factual." (2 of 3)

@pip @jakehamilton - so for the first two, would @Vivaldi and say Duck Duck Go get you there? Third one is getting more rare still.

My team's work is this article on #AI in the New York Times this morning:

“Disinformation actors are, by definition, early adopters — they will use every technique and every technology they can,” said Tim Chambers, who runs the digital and social media arm of Dewey Square Group...The firm has been helping clients audit their websites to see how accessible they are to chatbot scrapers..."

What an absolute legend, after moving on from @Mastodon, he still spreads awareness and donates stickers!

@andypiper you may have moved on to another role, but your kindness and impact will always be remembered here on the fediverse ❤️

I like this idea. #Collections

Reflect Orbital is going to launch a giant fucking mirror into orbit.

SpaceX has asked to launch a million gigantic fucking orbital data centers, and they've already got 11,000 sats in orbit.

The UN website that allows everyone to see what new satellites have been launched has not been updated since February. https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:vqtp5dj2o6rqnge56sz2db5a/post/3mq7fzllgw22h

And tomorrow, we're going to run out of satellite catalogue numbers, Y2K in orbit: https://celestrak.org/

Time to go for a walk in the woods...

Learn about how hashtags federate...(and how different servers seee this)

@JanMiksovsky @davew Interesting.

@pikesley Huh, sometimes giant slabs of concrete and hoists can functionally act as batteries.

My entire political worldview is: what if you could maintain the optimism and energy of America but add an inclusive culture of support that gives everyone education, healthcare, a real safety net and a springboard for their lives, in a way that builds communities rather than extracts from them?

@dansup Thank you for your service….

“We have traded a free internet for a collection of walled gardens. Today, a handful of digital landlords use algorithms to dictate our reality, while closed AI threatens to change the ways we connect. We are at a breaking point: we can either let gatekeepers continue to consolidate their power, or we can reclaim the open source spirit that built the web in the first place.” https://zeldman.com/2026/07/02/the-human-story-of-the-open-web/

“In this talk, I am going to try and inspire you to make things that would be literally impossible to make on the centralized web. I am going to talk about both the advantages and disadvantages of doing this kind of thing. Expect to hear concrete examples of software that already exists, and also examples of software that could conceivably exist in the very near future.” https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/lets-play-and-win-our-own-game/953
