I'm probably gonna have to be strategic about who I invite and in what order. In order for people to want to contribute to a community, it must feel lively. So, in order to make it feel lively, I'll have to invite people who I know have content to contribute first, and then open it up to others.

I feel like I may be the only person right now that's trying to organize a local community _without_ using Facebook or some other for-profit social media platform. At least the only person after Facebook came to prominence.

Exponential growth. This new community will eclipse Facebook by the end of the month at this rate

I know that bootstrapping the processor is the first step in starting an online community, so at least I have that down

I can confirm that SMTP is probably older than me

This account maintains some good moderation lists to block anyone who is following >10k accounts. I had this happen recently, followed one of those moderation lists, and the follows completely stopped. @automated-lists.bsky.social

How many people are there in the "other" category that would've formerly described themselves as Republicans? Perhaps the R numbers are so high because the group is shrinking?

If our attention stays trapped in 3–5 billionaire-run platforms, democracy suffers. Bluesky is built by all of us—for all of us. It won't happen overnight, but we're building a freer internet where you have a voice and get to choose your experience.

Haha this is pretty cool! I love the throwback to (I think) the classic Apache directory viewer style. Gives me early internet vibes, and I think that generally fits in with AT Protocol as a whole.

I wonder if Dan's screenshot captures content that was planted by an attacker, or if this was complete coincidence

It'd be extremely interesting to see the lessons y'all have learned from this! I'd also personally be interested in knowing if anyone is trying to attack the algorithm to try and boost their own content. I know it's closed source specifically to try prevent this.

I'm paying for a subscription now, but I'm wondering if that is wise when Wired makes such egregious errors.

And when they do mention Sourcegraph, they do not disclose this conflict of interest and instead make it sound like Sourcegraph is not an AI company.

Wired doesn't prominently mention that Yegge works for an AI company that develops a coding agent (Sourcegraph). Seems like a major conflict of interest?
