Here's the next version of my Bluesky/ATProto network map, now including feeds! Specifically, all feeds that Bluesky suggests to my empty dev account, which is the top 131 feeds. I don't have a data source for all 40,000 yet.
Also, labeler and feed node sizes are now logarithmic by likes.

My team working on Servo, the experimental web browser engine, just landed a huge milestone and turned on Flexbox by default. It's exciting to watch the evolution of a new browser engine.

If there are going to be climate-justified subsidies for owning electric cars, there should be subsidies for not owning cars at all.

Apparently there is some new deck-style webapp client that can let you use #Bluesky and #Mastodon together with timelines side by side and cross-posting to both at the same time… 👀👀 (looks kinda ugly though tbh :p)

If we lose the internet archive we are in serious trouble. They are the only public repository of most digital media (and some physical through scans) - like @frankcifaldi.bsky.social says, 89% of all video games are not currently available to purchase.
