@DrakkenZero I'm on iOS version of Firefox and it just loops back on itself to the homepage from my end.

@BeAware @DrakkenZero that's just a fediverse user, it's a WordPress Blog I think so it's probably using the AP plugin
that link https://socialwebfoundation.org/@swf is just @swf

@BeAware and here I thought you weren't posting because traversing the highways of the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft history, 2b2t, took a lot of attention :pedro:

@BeAware I don't think our goal is just to make money. I *do* think that having a financially viable Fediverse is important; it's one of our goals. But that can mean a lot of different things: coops, non-profits, grants, or companies.
But the money is a means to an end: having positive, independent social networking software and services.

@tom @BeAware @DrakkenZero @swf that's right. We're using the AP plugin. Great to use!

@evan I just hope there's no major financial influence from the major companies involved like Meta.
I don't want to lose control of my own site because I am not a programmer. I have a bit of control with Mastodon right now. However, there are some gripes everyone has had like lack of moderation features.
I worry a financial influence to change certain things will lessen my control and I'd have to find another software.
My worries always come from a place of passion and concern.
Thanks for your response. I appreciate you.

Good point...but a bit of both tbh. It's quite different here lately.

@TransitBiker so, it's very vague, but it's basically a foundation that's supposed to be the official "decision makers" on AP, the protocol that runs the Fediverse.
The worrying thing, is that their board of advisors are big companies like Meta and Automattic, who both have massive financial incentives to change things for their benefit.
