       So the one thing on my #BetterInternet wishlist is browser support for better client-side protocols that decouple apps from services.Example in thread... 1/n

       There's a reason this sort of thing hasn't taken off before. The Web 2.0 business model is built around vertical integration between apps + services.The client-side web app is effectively open-source and easy to copy. But you pay for a service to sync data (either directly or via ads).But I was reading @mmasnick's optimistic NY message here: https://www.techdirt.com/2022/12/30/new-years-message-the-opportunity-to-build-a-better-internet-is-here-right-now/And with trends like crypto taking a back seat and federated social media gaining traction, maybe now's the time. 4/4

       @PhilGastwirth Yeah, the Great America theme park in California has a Snoopy section. The park used to be associated with Paramount but I don't Paramount ever owned Peanuts, but there's clearly precedent for this. To say nothing of all the superhero-themed Six Flags rides.
