@molly0xfff is one of the most interesting tech critics out there, covering subjects like crypto industry spending in politics, Web3, and the tech industry as a whole with integrity and (sometimes) optimism. She spoke to NiemanLab about her Follow the Crypto site, her love of RSS, migrating from Substack to @ghost, and more. At the second and third links find her DotSocial conversation with @mike and an extract from her Fediverse House presentation at last year's SXSW.

We had #Fedicon because @reiver came to #sxsw to speak, and he left with the conviction that a Fediverse event in Vancouver would work. And he reached out to Canadian Fediverse participants to get a great lineup of speakers. He energized some really talented collaborators like @manlycoffee and @Crissy to make the event actually happen.
