Eurosky dawns: Building Infrastructure for Sovereign Social Media – Open Future

Not sure how to take this: Mastodon already exists, it’s a European project and it’s struggling to take off.

I don’t think that the problem with Mastodon’s lack of adoption is the ActivityPub protocol. What advantages does the ATProtocol have that will lead to wider adoption?

developing alternative social media infrastructure that is not controlled by Big Tech or venture capital-backed US corporations, anchored within EU jurisdiction, and designed to foster a more pluralistic information ecosystem.

@stefano In my mind the competition is with the big global centralized platforms… and so any decentralized systems are welcome! Different communities will form on different platforms. And if this brings some of the enthusiasm from BlueSky and gets people using decentralized systems (assuming they do make it more decentralized), then in the big picture, I think that is good.
