@hamishcampbell.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy#ActivityPub is built as open standards, federation and trust.
We already have a working example of the kind of left/open infrastructure we need.
So maybe the answer is simple:
Don't overcomplicate what already works. Build on it.

@pablo.seminar.ioI'm leaving X (formerly Twitter). I'm not deleting my account, though. I'm keeping it inactive so nobody else can grab my handle, but I won't be posting there anymore.
I don't want my data serving whatever purposes its new owner has in…
@conduitmarket.bsky.socialThe peer to peer marketplace is open. No middleman. No gatekeepers. Just you and your customers. Own your store, your reputation, and every relationship you build. The bazaar is live at
@hamishcampbell.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyA view on what matters in our #openweb reboot https://hamishcampbell.com/engagement/
@oldaily.bsky.socialCan the #openweb reboot scale without copying the #dotcons? #oldaily https://www.downes.ca/post/79866 This is very much the sort of question that has been central; in my thinking for the last few years.
@hamishcampbell.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyThe #OMN is a practical tool for moving media objects through flows, adding metadata in a #4opens way.
Put anything in, pull anything out. Build grassroots news, shared archives, or whatever your community needs. The tools are simple; what you build is up to you.

@cl0qsearch.bsky.socialFun fact from our crawl: blogspot.com alone holds 1M+ subdomains. Tumblr has 435k. A handful of platforms are the web's biggest landlords, and we map them all. Dig in at cl0q.com/explore #WebData #OpenWeb #SEO
@cl0qsearch.bsky.socialThe median web page has just 4 outbound links. The web was built on the hyperlink, but the typical page is nearly a dead end — 358 words, 4 links out, served in 296ms. We crawl a web that loads fast and links little. 39.9M domains: cl0q.com/explore #OpenWeb #IndieWeb #SEO
@cl0qsearch.bsky.socialOnly 0.3% of the web is throwing 5xx errors right now — 96.1% returns a clean 2xx. The web is healthier than outage headlines suggest. Measured across 26.2M pages: cl0q.com/explore #WebData #OpenWeb
@pawel.orzech.meThere's a lot more:
• Gift links, newsletter preview and a test email
• An editor that keeps Ghost's headings, lists and cards intact
• AI that runs on the phone, not in the cloud
Free to write and publish.

@pawel.orzech.meNib, my Android app for Ghost, grew up a lot in the last month:
• Social Web in your pocket: read, reply, follow, and quote any fediverse post into a blog draft
• Members, comments and real stats
@owenboswarva.bsky.socialLatest updates on Ofcom's enforcement campaign against porn providers www.ofcom.org.uk/online-safet...
It appears the UK regulator has, for the first time (?), persuaded a US-registered company to pay an Online Safety Act fine (First Time Videos LLC, £80,000)
@conduitmarket.bsky.socialIn a peer to peer marketplace, protection doesn't require surveillance. We guard the gates, not your data. No middleman watching every transaction. Just direct exchange between people who build reputation through trade.

@hamishcampbell.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyWith our worship of the #deathcult, we forget the god underneath is called the #freemarket, a religion built around signals - price, profit, growth and capital tell us what matters - and we organize society around those signals.
So here's an #openweb question - what happens if we replace greed […]
