Instead of focusing on fediblock stuff you could subscribe and read my writing. It's ok, I can say that because I created fediblock

This is tragic, the fall of Bitwarden: https://blog.ppb1701.com/the-quiet-renovation-at-bitwarden
@sundogplanets As a resident of the NWT who is displaced for at least half of the year by mass tourism seeking the Aurora Borealis, it is astounding that northern governments are not speaking out against all the junk in the sky.
@miki_lou No joke, I'm on a panel for the Canadian Senate about it tomorrow. I don't know if they'll actually do anything, but they are going to have to listen to me for a while, at least!

As part of the festivities for International Goth Day, I'm taking part in a Twitch raid train: https://raidrunner.net/events/gotgothinternational-world-goth-day ... but that doesn't mean the Fediverse can't celebrate its inner darkness with me.
And I'm not even a true Goth! Watch me try to hide my natural bubbly personality and obnoxiously day-glo attire?
Beats, chats, and messing about.
@stefan like on a technical sense i dont see a difference, and i think you could make a good case that 'owning all your data' is even easier to do on atproto than it is on activitypub.
but culturally there seems to be a huge difference, people who value 'owning all your data' seem to gravitate quite strongly to the fediverse over the atmosphere
@laurenshof "owning all your data' is even easier to do on atproto"
Yes! I've said on a few occasions that I absolutely love the concept of a PDS. Unified core API for all ATProto apps, free database for your own app, if you're a developer. Love it.
Now, as a user, yes, I could host my own PDS.
But the data still flows through Bluesky the company's infrastructure. (Unless you use something like https://reddwarf.app.)
Now, you say, easy fix, pick any of the many community-hosted services. There are so many now!
And yes, but here's the rub.
And this is not to disparage all of the ATProto community, but I personally, and I suspect others feel this way as well, find portions of it, well, let's say it's not my crowd.

Today is L0pht Day. In 1998 7 hackers in suits told the US Senate the internet was a house of cards. We said we could take it down in 30 minutes. They looked at us like we'd landed from another planet.
28 yrs later, the gap between what the security community knows and what decision-makers act on remains a fundamental problem.
Miss you, Peter Neumann. He testified that day too, with decades of hard-earned wisdom. We owe him.
The work isn't done. It never was.

A protest organized by displaced families from Al-Bureij camp in front of the International Kitchen in Deir al-Balah due to the suspension of food supplies to the camps.💔😔

I think part of the reason is that the Fediverse makes it much more visible what instance you're on.
I don't know how I'd tell on BSky if you were on BSky, EuroSky, or something else.
There's also lots of "we'll host it for you" offerings here. I've not seen any for AT.
@las_lallero mah, a questo punto spero di non rivederlo per taaaanto tempo :(

È quello lo spirito! 
Wow, the "see what's new" wizard is also broken. Their developers were already nearly as bad as LLM agents and now they clearly have these same incompetents slopcoding.
AI isn't causing everything to go to shit. It's just serving preexisting demand to turn everything to shit.
