A decentralized vine (remember vine?) short form video platform, built on Nostr. Kinda early days, but interesting to see another attempt at this type of platform using open social tech.

Missed @ben's keynote at this year's @fediforum? Here's the full transcript. "The opportunity right now isn't to build a better Twitter or to provide a nice place for people who care about Linux to chat: it's to build infrastructure that vulnerable people can actually use to organize, to communicate safely, and to build community. But we can only do that if we're building with those communities from day one, not building for them based on our assumptions about what they need."

FediForum is coming up. It's an unconference, so the agenda is set by the attendees, but we do know that it will be unmissable, featuring a keynote from @ben and sessions from people like @quillmatiq, @j12t, @johannab and more. Here's the schedule, plus some of what's on the cards.

"The days of us being able to walk on [to social media], tweet something, walk away, and get people to come to our website are over…" @404mediaco's Jason Koebler told Nieman Lab's Hanaa' Tameez at the iMEdD International Journalism Forum last week. "We said, if we don’t aggressively move people from social media platforms that we don’t control to platforms that we do control, this business isn’t going to work and we aren’t going to have jobs anymore.” This led the team at 404 to ask readers for email addresses and put older stories behind paywalls, which totally transformed their business. Here's more from NiemanLab on what 404, The Economist and El País have learned about how to attract and retain readers in today's media environment.

The other thing that the #Guppe incident showed us is that the #Fediverse seriously needs the #Nomadic protocol.
Let's say the Fediverse understands the protocol: just move to a new domain, inform all instances "this is the new domain, automatically re-subscribe please", done. Life goes on for regular people.
I am not saying it is that easy or that's how exactly it will work. But it could've been avoided. Right now, entire communities are gone, many who were relying on it are now disconnected. (Then again, I can argue that it's time to clean the membership since many accounts are also stagnant.)
So, when? #ActivityPub2 ?
