I agree with this take on proposals to block #Meta's rumoured #ActivityPub-based service. We should encourage adoption of this defederated approach, even if there is a risk that Meta will try #enshittify it.Not That Kind of ‘Open’https://daringfireball.net/linked/2023/06/19/not-that-kind-of-open

@kjr This is a term that @doctorow coined. He's outlined what this involves a couple times. Here's one post he describes the process in: https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/

@paul Hi Paul, I have another question related to it. In my case, more than defeferate the option will be just to delete my acounts in the Fediverse. I just need a little time until next werk to organize the way out of kbin, since I have a couple of responsabilities there.I have already altetnative places, but I was curious about Nostr. I have seen your account there and I wanted to know about your opinion about it, comminities that use it, etc.

@kjr hey. I haven't actually used Nostr (as far as I recall). I probably signed up out of curiosity. I still maintain the hope that Mastodon has a future for me (or something pretty close to this).

@kjr oh, I'm actually pretty interested to see what the service looks like, how it will work, and whether it can take the Fediverse mainstream.Sure, it's difficult to trust Meta. At the same time, this could be a tipping point for distributed social because it could make it more accessible and intelligible to "normies".

@paul I am in the opposite position. I afraid the consequences of the integration of data graphs (something in which I have experience). After the federation, it will be possible during data retrieval integrate networks of people present in both platforms, match accounts, even with different names but which belongs to the same person (it is one of my professional activities, but I do only with data of dead people). That means, it gives possibilities to enrich a lot the knowledge about each individual.

@kjr that's interesting, I didn't think about that. That's a good point. 🤔
