One of the many things that pisses me off about the protocol wars l, which mostly comes from the #ActivityPub side is the way they delegitimise #Blacksky
Content warning:meta
There's a small peanut gallery on ActivityPub driven by a small number of people mad ATProto is taking off. They sound *exactly* like now-forgotten OStatus grognards who were mad about ActivityPub. Their agitating gives a worse impression of inter-community relations if you don't look too close.
When you actually look at the people doing the coolest work on both sides you see everyone's getting along and nerding out about protocols and the future of technology.
The consensus there is pretty much that there's room for different notions and the way forward is collaboration.
#ActivityPub #ATProto #BlueSky
Ran into an odd issue trying to map fields to an ActivityPub activity in the Drupal setup. I can't find a field for body. I want that to be my content but its just not showing up. Weird.
Después de esto, llego incluso a concluir que, si queremos preservar la #Privacidad la industria del dato debe desaparecer.
Dicho esto se discute sobre el modelo descentralizado, hablando de la interoperabilidad, los protocolos abiertos como #ActivityPub y el importantísimo papel del usuario en este cambio de rumbo.
"This statement is a call for cooling the temperature of discussions and a reminder to be respectful of each other and the huge amount of work everyone is putting in to build a better open social web. We do not win by tearing each other down, which only emboldens and empowers those who do not want either protocol to succeed."

The #Bluesky astroturfing is un fucking real. Luckily, there's no actual, genuine engagement. It's shills talking to shills. Hopefully, it will smolder. They are really trying to get people off of #Activitypub, though.
“There is an entire section of the #ActivityPub specification that isn't as well known or widely adopted but which, at a high level, provides fairly similar ideas to those emphasized within the AT Protocol community for separation between data, identity and applications.”

I think this is an excellent statement about the two main open social web protocols
and I have to admit that I didn't know that ActivityPub has a section that deals with "separation between data, identity and applications"

I certainly have my own opinions and feelings about the whole "fediverse vs Bluesky" thing, but this joint statement is a good reminder that fighting on the internet is never a good look.

“We do not win by tearing each other down, which only emboldens and empowers those who do not want either protocol to succeed.” “Arguing between us only emboldens those that seek to derail and destroy efforts to build an open social web.” #activitypub #atproto #atprotocol
