To help with the Forkiverse experiment, the Search Engine/Hard Fork teams talked to two experts: @evan.cosocial.ca.ap.brid.gy and @iftas.org's Jaz-Michael King.

And here's the episode of Search Engine where they talk about why the Forkiverse is ending — rising costs, lack of exciting content, and Russian propaganda infiltration.

Last week @brittanyellich.com asked, “What’s the app or experience that you had that made the Atmosphere click for you?” and @pyxorium.com shared this Dot Social episode with @mmccue.bsky.social and @jay.bsky.team.

If you haven’t listened to it yet, it’s a good one.
