Even if I were the nicest, wisest benevolent dictator to ever grace the face of the earth (and I can make no guarantees about that), the companies that run social platforms outlast individual leadership. This public square would inevitably be ruined like any other.

The way to build a resilient forum for public conversation that lasts for the long-term is to build it on an open protocol, like the web itself. Services like websites can be built on top, but each can be run differently, and if users can easily move it keeps services accountable to users.

Gave my first in person keynote since 2019, since 2019 I became a new person twice having to kiddos and living in over 20 places. I would say I felt more comfortable and confident than I have ever had doing this talk because I spent the first 10 mins getting to know the audience and listening

I’m starting a blog about my disdain towards headphones. I’m not exaggerating I have 5 pairs of different Bluetooth headphones and 2 pairs of regular headphones and somehow none of them work anywhere. I think maybe headphones are writing a blog about their disdain for me because we just don’t vibe.

this is an attempt at a new way to do social media that is more like an actual commons, rather than a fake commons owned by a corporation. that is the meaningful social innovation.

bluesky is not a cohost or Twitter 2. it is an application running on top of an open, decentralized, authenticated protocol that anyone can extend, use, or interoperate on.

it would be a massive failure for this to become cohost or twitter 2.
