[Mastodon.social](https://Mastodon.social ) is being DDoS right now. That's bad. It was bad when Bluesky was DDoSed. It's bad when open social platforms are attacked.

I've been talking about this for months with others. SaaS products built around data moats are not a thing in the Atmosphere. The whole point is that users data should not be enclosed. This is a space that requires other types of business models.

But if you _do_ want some AI help, Graze has an LLM you can prompt to build you a feed as well!
Graze's LLM & feed builder also provides some explainability since you can look at the blocks that the LLM generates for you.

Also I love to see more cross protocol work happening. Rising tides can lift all boats.
Folks who want to have protocol wars can wade in and try to hold back the ocean.

Great to see a new author up on the [@[email protected]](https://bsky.brid.gy/ap/did:plc:ewvi7nxzyoun6zhxrhs64oiz ), and @npub1c9d…2llc no less!
It's incredibly exciting to see support for her work in general, and specifically around bringing FedCM and ATProto/ActivityPub closer together.

Laurens is an excellent thinker about open social spaces and the technical fundamentals. We are collectively lucky to have him thinking about the why of it all in a way that is so fundamentally tied to the meaningful details.

There's a much deeper conversation on all the ways in which ATProto can/should be integrated with existing services, but this is wild and very very cool!

Masnick's impossibility theorem is a good reminder for the past few weeks. I don't think it'll change anybody's mind (it is an impossibility theorem after all!), but it's important to understand what the possible outcomes are when we want something to be different.

Low key I'm just looking at European law makers & funders who say they want sovereign tech, but haven't actually done anything to make an open social web more resilient. Like this is literally a space where they could take action and ensure ATProto was more open.
This is going to keep happening.

@npub1x7v…70d5 @npub1fkk…hx34 Hey, FYI, the fact that the PLC is still inside the PBC is an ongoing rhetorical problem. This is a discord message from a project that started two weeks ago.
We can update folks on updates about how ATProto is independent & growing but this will keep happening.

I had sort of ignored Texas HB 1181, since it was so clearly unconstitutional (until today). And some of the provisions in here are craaaazy.

Very much now wondering what BSky is going to do. #Indiesky and non Sky hosting feeling a lot more relevant today!

Very mad that @npub1r89…kwp7 decided to drop these numbers two days AFTER I decided to get into arguments on Mastodon about hosting costs.
Time to gear back up in the asbestos suit. (this is a joke, the conversation has been mostly civil)
