Wishing there was a fully supported ATgeo lexicon that most bluesky app views could understand…it would allow us to build location aware posts from location data (think disasters, quakes, flood etc)

Sometimes I’m wondering, what would be the cost of stopping supporting the Mastodon API layer and instead work towards proper implementation of client to servers opening the route for a universal mobile app for #fedify based AP implementation.
For indiekit I used Fedify to bring this very blog into the fediverse but then I wanted to be able to use Phanpy and other mobile app so I built a compatibility api layer that these mobile apps expect to find allowing me to use my own site with any Mastodon mobile app. It works but it’s buggy and I’m subject to API layers change and other future breakage I don’t want to deal with in the long run.
So now I’m wondering, do I drop this API layer and build a universal client?

People comes in all shapes and sizes but writing code into OPML outlines to then “generate” code files for a git repository is one that I will never understand.
No matter how much time I put into it.
It’s like using I a Word document to write Javascript or typescript?
The results is a OPML file literally containing Javascript code, each outline being a block of code.
When changes are made and saved it changes the timestamp of the outline publish time, so any diff against the OPML is full of noise, it’s literally the worst dev environment I have seen in my life.
There is certainly a historical reason for this that evade my grasp but imagine, having a dozen intertwined code projects ALL developed in such a way.
Good luck contributing or sending a PR to repository like that. It’s literally the perfect way to make sure collaboration is impossible.

Just migrated bsky.rss from feedsub to feedsmith, now bsky.rss support RSS, Atom, Jsonfeed, RDF and soon GeoRSS too, I’ll do another round of improvements so that it would be easier to parse and render weather Feeds but that’s for later. Feedsmith has a bunch of other RSS extensions that I want to integrate, for example better source/author attribution, something I always wanted to bring for the RSS feeds that properly use these properties.🔗 https://rmendes.net/notes/2026/08/07/678e3

There is so much happening on the #ATproto Atmosphere that its hard to keep up, I’m not talking about Bluesky the company, I’m talking about this or this or this its really a never-ending exploration no matter where this is going, this being decentralization and building on top of the protocol, it’s good for the web.

When an activist downloads academic papers, the state describes it as wire fraud, computer fraud and reckless damage. When a corporate AI agent escapes containment, steals credentials, moves across systems and compromises another organisation, the event is described as a safety evaluation, an unexpected capability or a research incident.

AI: T1
Human hackers have frequently been prosecuted based on unauthorized access itself, including when their intent was research, activism, curiosity or political protest.
Frontier AI companies are currently receiving a much more lenient, cautious, collaborative and interpretively generous response after their own systems performed technically sophisticated unauthorized intrusions.
Why?
Aaron Swartz was driven to suicide under the pressure of a disproportionate federal prosecution for an act of information liberation that produced no comparable injury to the real-world intrusions now being committed by corporate AI agents.
Swartz’s case demonstrates that computer-crime law has never required catastrophic damage before the state deploys overwhelming punitive force against a human being.
The supposed seriousness often comes from unauthorised access itself, the circumvention of technical restrictions and the prosecutor’s interpretation of the person’s intentions.
AI corporations are receiving the inverse treatment:
technically serious conduct is minimised because the company claims not to have intended the precise outcome; the corporation controls the evidence and publishes its own narrative; the breach is framed as useful scientific discovery; disclosure and remediation are treated as evidence of responsibility; and the organisation retains the commercial benefit of developing the system.
Why is intention interpreted expansively and punitively when the actor is an individual hacker, but narrowly and sympathetically when the actor is a powerful corporation operating an autonomous agent?

RSC (Really Simple Conversations) is a social feed where everything is distributed via RSS: posts, as well as replies, entire conversations, and corrections published afterward. Three independent sites can thus participate in the same feed without a common API, without a shared account, and without having to adopt a new protocol: if your site already publishes a feed, it’s already a node in the network.

Depuis vingt ans, chaque tentative de « réinventer » le web social commence par la même étape : inventer un protocole. XMPP, OStatus, ActivityPub, AT Protocol, Nostr. À chaque fois la promesse est la même, à chaque fois le coût d’entrée est le même :...
