Him backing it is all the reason I need to never bother with it.

I guess Jack's not done throwing hand grenades at the social compact.

This alternative is interesting because Jack hired a team of experts to review ecosystem of decentralized social media (see https://twitter.com/bluesky/status/1352302821140549632), and then to create a new ActivityPub-like protocol, on which BlueSky itself is based.

I'm not savvy enough to understand this stuff. Is ActivityPub a less-censorable protocol? Is there less chance that it could end up a morass of centralized control like Twitter became?

Mastodon, Lemmy and PeerTube use ActivityPub, you can say it's less-censorable as admin of a server/instance decides what is allowed in their place. There exist uncensored Mastodon instances, though they are small I think.

I see. Mastodon is a great concept, but it's pretty interesting to see how it's turned into these siloed fiefdoms of enforced groupthink.

I’m just dying to give all my information and be censored by another big tech company.
