Oh.

Oh.
@zachleat ah, a docs PR!
I'm not sure how you like to tackle that stuff, but I've come to discover it's so-o-o much easier to document new features in its own docs PR than co-located with code (Bridgetown’s a monorepo). I used to think I should try to write docs as if it's part of a checklist along with tests and other code-level concerns, and that really gunked up the works.
Anyways…just curious!
@evan @theinternet oh I don't know. It just seems like so much of the history of the web has been defined by "resources" — aka the "document web" —and it's almost by happenstance we managed to get a pretty good "application web" built alongside it. But now that we have the beginnings of a true social web, I can anticipate so many apps and utilities emerging which are only possible once that infrastructure is in place.
I'll need to write down some thoughts over at @theinternet soon about the new Social Web Foundation, because I have a strong feeling we'll look back at this moment as the start of something truly special going forward. Lots of blue-sky explorations possible here…
@tchambers @KamalaHarrisWin @tusk81 I feel like the group isn't boosting today. Technical glitch?
Here we go again…
@jenniferplusplus I don't trust AT protocol, thus I don't trust Bluesky. I think the folks running the org are good people, but I consider it a mistake to label it as part of the "fediverse". To me, fediverse = ActivityPub. Always has been, always will be. If it's not a W3C spec, it's not a component of the open web. That's why I've shut down my account there and don't plan to return.
@zachleat I hope this toot finds you swell.
@sstephenson Welcome to the best instance! @tchambers is a great admin ️
@thisismissem I have no problem with hard forks (heck, I'm literally a maintainer of of a hard-forked project going on 4+ years now!), but I simply can't take anyone calling for a hard fork of Mastodon seriously. A vibrant and active open fediverse is *still* in its infancy, and any perceived good which might result out of such actions would be far outweighed by the bad of splintering the development community. Definitely not something I could support.
