#openecosystem — Public Fediverse posts

Bluesky, the self-proclaimed savior of open ecosystems, just trademarked AT Protocol to ensure it can be used "widely"—which naturally means locking it up tighter than Fort Knox. 🏰🔒 Because nothing says "open ecosystem" like slapping a #trademark on every possible variant of your precious protocol. 🤦‍♂️📜

"... the philosophy of Google+ was wildly different than ... Buzz. We took a lot of the same technology that had been built for Buzz and ported that over. But the approach was basically another Walled Garden.

There's a lot to the "Ecosystem of Open". #OpenEcosystem
From F/LOSS, #OpenData, and #OpenBadges to #OpenScience, #OpenGovernment, and #OERs, let's work through a whole system of complex interrelations. Yes, that includes activities @weareopencoop & @openedtech.social. Also, #InfoPros (librarians et al.).
#LOUDGLAM is a neat example: Linked Open Usable Data in Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums.
