More progress on the AP implementation on my site. I got HTTP signature verification on Follow activities working and started the groundwork to migrate from my current instance to my website. Some things I want to do before migrating: 1. Export my archive, I'm especially interested in preserving who I'm follows and bookmarks. 1. For bookmarks: Create a page on my site that links to the bookmarks. 1. For follows: Create an OPML file linking to their RSS feeds and add those feeds to my feed reader. One thing I will miss after I retire my instance is the timeline. I always discover interesting posts and people that way. My plan is to follow RSS feeds for tags that I'm interested in. I know it's not as good or spontaneous as the timeline but it's a way to stay engaged in the conversation. Also, my site effectively will work one-way for now. I don't have a way to receive replies or DMs, nor do I have a way of replying to people directly from my site. Maybe that's something I'll add later on but not a priority at the moment. My main priority at the moment is to maintain a presence in the Fediverse without having to maintain my own instance. I know technically I could just join someone else's instance, but I don't want to create yet another account nor become a maintenance burden for someone else. More importantly though, I want my website to be my digital hub, with protocols like ActivityPub, Nostr, and AT Protocol serving as spokes to reach different networks. My content and identity remain on my site, independent of any single platform. If any protocol or network disappears, my content and identity remain intact.

@0xtero thank you for the info! Yes I had seen the non-profit info but not the revenue. Wow.

@_elena no idea if it's right-wing connected (wouldn't surprise me) and I can't be bothered to look further - it already looks like a rich-boy club scheme to make money out of activism. And I guess their headlines from Davos around this social network of theirs were formed similarly. Bleh.

@_elena Had a quick look. Seems the domain is registered by a Swedish company WeDontHaveTime (who seems to run wedonthavetime.org). The company is owned by a foundation, so no idea who the real owner are (the foundation owns US based company of a same name as well). This guy is their CEO https://www.forbes.com/sites/ingmarrentzhog/ - the company has 9 employees and revenue of 15-20 million SEK yearly (loses twice the revenue yearly -17M SEK in 2024).

@dneary there's that bar up on a side street, kind of Art Nouveau/Parisian? We couldn't find a table and had drinks in a more modern place across the street with Ruth and Brian. Ring a bell? We should meet there.
@RuiSeabra it's the bar we had a Fediverse meetup at so long ago.
