@aaronpk speaking of indieauth, something that i mentioned to @DickHardt over IIW was that I really really really want to make my handle be @sgo.to.

Can't we come up with some form of convention that when you run into a @domain.example we do the indieauth thingy?

Ironically, the ActivityPub spec itself works just fine with plain domain usernames, nothing about it requires WebFinger or username based IDs. That was something I pushed hard for when we were working on the spec. But sadly Mastodon requires the @-@ syntax and WebFinger.

Each new generation on the web needs to learn that there’s no such thing as a permanent web identity on a commercial web service.
The only long-term solution to maintain your identity is:
1. your own domain name
2. Your own website/blog
3. Several backups
Everything else is temporary. Your accounts on myspace, facebook, medium, twitter, google plus, youtube, tiktok, mastodon will one day disappear or become useless.
You don’t have a "community" on those websites. Only ephemeral discussions.

I later rebuilt an PHP ActivityPub implementation as a separate service, API only. But I only use it for bots. I've been meaning to rip out my internal mess and switch over to that but I'm not excited about that project.

There's a lot of things. Posts from everyone I follow. Replies and likes of those posts. If you delete a post it sends a Delete activity. There's also a *ton* of redundant account Delete activities sent for some reason too.

There was no vision shared with us. No 5 year plan like at Tesla. Nothing more than what anyone can see on Twitter. It allegedly is coming for those who stayed but the ask was blind faith and required signing away the severance offer before seeing it. Pure loyalty test.

Now Musk says the top priority for the company this weekend is ensuring Twitter does an awesome job to support the World Cup, according to an all staff email.

This event has required a ton of work over the years from engineers and has prompted widespread outages.

Everyone's talking about revealing their Twitter crushes. TBH if I follow you, I'd probably date you, and might already have a mild crush on you, so, uh. DM me while you can, especially if you're in Portland. Let's hangout!

Ok we actually should hang out again tho since we're both in Portland instead of waiting to randomly bump in to each other in Lisbon like before 😅

ohh I just realized that the reason I was in Lisbon was because I was at one of the W3C meetings of the Social Web Working Group, working on the IndieWeb/ActivityPub specs! How poetic. 😇

@aaronpk We just had our house remodeled and they installed another breaker panel that doubled the number of circuits. Some Saturday I need to map out a good listing of everything.

Yes please definitely map those out, preferably before everything is finished 😅

Do NOT “just have a quick look” at your #homeassistant app while on holiday and accidentally turn on all the lights at 2am, terrifying your apartment-sitter and leading her to believe in poltergeists.

Oops yeah those buttons are a little bit too easy to click

My #FollowFriday is @EposVox. Or as you may know him, "The Stream Professor".

Generous with his time and thoughts, he has a far more open mind about what the future of platforms, content, and what ownership over all of it means than the run of the mill content creator.

I've watched his videos for some time, and it's been great to connect with him on the #Fediverse.

Whenever I open twitter now, the home timeline has like 2 new tweets. I'm not sure if this is because the twitter infrastructure is failing, or because actually there was one person individually responsible for creating your home timeline and they were fired last week
