Is the Mozilla organization generally responsive to social media? I have had a hard time trying to figure out where the organization responds to publicly, generally. I would love to have a Mozilla hosted email and calendar service from them

You seem to have some knowledge in this area. I'm curious your thoughts on Enhanced Geothermal? https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/18/fervo-energy-hits-milestone-...

I realize that this article is about Wind + Solar, but given this breakthrough, can anyone who is an authority on the subject explain if EGS is also set to take off? https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/18/fervo-energ

So to me, this sounds more like building a personal knowledge base. Not a dashboard IMO. How does this differ from other note taking apps like Obsidian?

What is the end state here? A way to measure personal life KPIs? Or just building a dak board?

I realize that there's a million obvious answers; but as I type this in the part of the country currently roasting by the heatwave in the United States: will something like this ever happen for climate efforts?

One thing that frustrates me is that Solid relies on Linked Data; and working with Linked Data, at least in my experience, is frustrating.

It's not, though it does get partial funding from the US government. I've been for a few weeks now to try and unpack the ramifications of public funded social media. Blog post here: https://dynamorando.pages.dev/bl

Why isn’t there funding for public social media? Doesn’t Germany and the Netherlands run their own Mastodon instances?

Could someone in Europe educate me as to why it seems (at least to me) that Europe seems to be leading in leveraging the Fediverse, along with data governance policies (the Data Act, GDPR?) versus America? I assume it's because Europe

Thank you for your feedback. A concern that I constantly see brought up is that although administration would be done by semi-public institutions; the First Amendment would require all to post, leaving the option of hate speech and spam flo

Interesting. I personally found the whole defining your schema up front to feeling like trying to construct the universe up front. I’ve been trying to work on an alternative solution to SOLID, but I’m always double checking myself just to m

Does there exist a medium between host moderators and user moderation the makes this work? Wikipedia is self moderated and there are well moderated Reddits. The host of the ActivityPub site doesn’t have to do all the moderation, and there d

I want to acknowledge that feedback, because it’s useful. As a follow question: is this a solvable problem between host moderation and user self moderation? In other words: Let’s pretend NPR hosts a Reddit-like site whose primary objective

I’ve been recently trying to unpack an imperfect idea of trying to publicly fund social media (and how to generally improve the internet).

by dynamorando 3y ago
I have somewhat blogged about this, though I realize the idea may be incomplete. https://dynamorando.pages.dev/blog/the-public-web/ I welcome any tactful feedback. Also I have no idea how to initiate such an idea.

I’m curious - have you used SOLID? Either as a developer or a consumer? I found myself struggling with Linked Data for quite some time now, and I have struggled with the idea that perhaps part of the problem with adoption of Linked Data is

I’m curious - do you see a path forward for “public” social media? I had half an idea yesterday on this from HN: https://dynamorando.pages.dev/blog/the-public-web/

I blogged about this yesterday after seeing a similar post on HN https://dynamorando.pages.dev/blog/the-public-web/ Though I am not sure the political will exists.

Arguable IMO it could be argued for civic engagement and discourse and education. That’s the charter as I understand for NPR, I don’t see why a public social network couldn’t fall under that. Misinformation on social media exists today, I d

Should we start a public petition? EDIT: This is an idea that I’ve recently been advocating for; I just don’t know where to start. We have public parks, why can’t we have public spaces? Offer a contract every few years to be bid by large co
