I Read My Boyfriend’s ChatGPT and We Broke up. I Don’t Regret It.
This is an as-told-to essay based on a conversation with Lindsey Hall, a writer and public relations consultant…

Is there a common practice for how to automatically detect the social icon of a fediverse site-link when adding it to a ‘personal links’ section like in GitHub? We’re trying to implement this for #weirdone
-
@erlend oh yes! Thank you for reminding me, was planning on making a zine out of it. I'll get on that too.
Great to hear you're using Willow! Their approach to protocol design inspired a lot of the conclusions in the thesis as well ~
Checked out #weirdone last night, will try it out for sure!
Edit: ps, I skimmed the documentation and got the impression you were running over ipfs, did you switch or running a merge somehow? *research curiosity intensifies*

@zelf sounds marvelous. I’m gonna try to make my way through it (we’re using Willow in #weirdone after all) but 90 pages of academic text is admittedly a bit intimidating to me, although what I skimmed so far was quite legible to me 😌
Just to check, I don’t suppose there’s like a ~10 page version of this in the works for laypeople?

First step towards fediverse compatibility in #WeirdOne is complete!
All Weird sites (which can have custom domains like my erlend.sh) now automatically verify against Mastodon & co. ✅

HOLY MOLY – Weird is now publicly available to all!
Our v0.3 mvp is finally done after a year of development and many more spent pondering cozy community design.

Today it's a minimalistic personal site generator. Before long it'll be a social network made of people's personal websites.
Nerdy web weirdos unite ✊❤️🔥

We would like to run an #activitypub instance as part of the #weirdone platform, same as the excellent #omglol by @prami
This instance will be operated as a paid extension of Weird, costing $10/yr ($20/yr after beta).
All member subscriptions will go entirely to the AP instance hosters, which should be a team of at least 2-3 sysadmins & moderators tending to the instance part-time. This is expected to be a fairly low-volume instance since all members are paid (to begin with).

What kind of company does Weird aspire to be?
https://blog.muni.town/weird-inc/
Must we consider ourselves a ‘possible future adversary’ of the open product and ecosystem we’re caringly shaping and seeding as founders?
Abiding by non-extractive practices means doing business on hard mode, but it’s a fun puzzle.
We believe the most realistic and sustainable way of realizing that outcome is with old-fashioned commerce:
1. Make product
2. Sell product
3. Return to step 1 -
Here’s our roadmap for Weird going into 2025!

We already have a proof-of-concept importer for Mastodon as a backup of your posts & connections.

Homeownership on the web is highly analogous to the physical world. Modern homeownership is mostly a story of home-rentership, not real ownership.
Incredibly, this matches the online experience, even though the World Wide Web has an infinite amount of real-estate!
You deserve a home on the web that’s built to keep you safe; a magical place for virtual living that‘s yours for life, existing in a sociable web.
