And how would you like to see those rules enforced?”

Apps like Bluesky and Mastodon promise more control, like custom feeds, algorithms, and even subscribing to others’ moderation rules.

But as @noupside.bsky.social tells @rabble.nz, most people want “stupid simple” with familiar feeds and centralized moderation like X.

Full episode out.

New Sunday Times profile in which I succeed, like a fencer in a 2hr marathon match, in fending off Qs abt my personal life & consistently turning focus back to my work & ideas.

(Contra the interviewer's claim, many ppl do know me! They're called friends, & you know who you are ❤️)

there's an episode of The Simpsons where Marge tries to get a violent cartoon pulled from the airwaves, only to discover that the people backing her aren't going to stop at just the art that *she* doesn't like, and that supporting artistic freedom means accepting discomfort.

It aired in 1990.

I was invited on @davidbollier.bsky.social's podcast to talk about social media, and social media protocols as a commons. I think it's a conversation which will interest anybody who cares about the future of Bluesky.
