The #fediverse, a collection of #decentralised web products, aims to provide a viable #open web alternative to corporate #socialmedia.

While it has a #passionate user base, it remains a #niche platform.

At #FediForum, new apps like #Bounce, #Surf, and #Bandwagon were showcased, demonstrating progress in social graph migration, feed management, and monetisation for creators.

"No Musk can shut us down." As I said to Henrik, the @SafeguardingResearch project demonstrates the power and resilience of #decentralised action.

#Distributed and #decentralised #computing networks aren’t left-wing. They are right-wing technologies which aim to escape from being controlled by a central authority.

They aren’t democratic either. Democracy requires a central authorative force which can apply the collective will even to parties resisting it.

We are being sold a right-wing package wearing hippy left-wing tie-dye. That’s why it’s so conflicting.

A large number of the issues we face today come down to large platforms being under the control of a handful of billionaires who are all currently sucking up to Donald Trump.

We have to break up the monopolies and build reliable, easy to use #decentralised social media.

What is one thing you’d change about the Fediverse if you could?

The day has come, Mattrbld 1.0 is out. And that means that not only has it left beta status, it’s now also fully open-source.

Read the blog post for some more insights and check out the changelog to see what’s new in this release.

Guess who snagged the name dweb for his first #Rust library crate on crates.io.

It also includes my first Trait and templated type, making it easy to create and manage a history of any data type saved to #p2p storage.

So it doesn't just support versioned #decentralised websites, or file trees, but versioned #decentralized anything.

t00t!

"Decentralised social media is more than just a technical shift; it's a step toward restoring autonomy and trust in our digital lives, empowering individuals and communities to connect without compromising their values or privacy."

A study by the Oxford Martin School at the University of Oxford finds that decentralised social media leads to citizen empowerment.
