Thanks to the Interledger Foundation for their generous Grant for the Web to the Social Web Foundation. With the help of ILF, we are launching a new program area focused on economic issues on the Social Web. In particular, we’ll be producing three reports: one on sustainability for social web instances; one for the Fediverse and the creator economy; and one for cooperatives on the Social Web. In addition, we’ll be engaging multimedia Fediverse apps for using the Web Monetization standard. You can read more about grant on our shared announcement: Interledger Foundation awards $200,000 to Social Web Foundation to support decentralized social media.

@ricmac

the incentives are to create content for big tech platforms. to work for them. to get promoted by their algos and paid by them. we have a fedi coming together re an fair playing field for discovery, but we all need to come together to make #WebMonetization happen too. #PublicPatron

Holy shit you guys!

Someone at Meta remembered that #OpenGraphProtocol exists.

An update was made in June - https://github.com/facebook/open-graph-protocol/commits/master/

Which adds Payment link metadata - https://ogp.me/#type_payment

Nothing about #WebMonetization, sadly, but good to know the project isn't completely abandoned.
