Kind: Notes

Really good #redecentralize meetup on Thursday.

My personal takeaways were:

– the BBC R&D team are looking into things like decentralisation and personal data stores
– I should start using my Scuttlebutt account
– Holochain sounds like it has its politics in the right place and I’d like to understand it better

The Onion nails it ?

I switched to youtube-nocookie for youtube embeds and it’s gotten rid doubleclick tracking cookies from my site. Good riddance!

On the wires of our nerves

Solarpunk is all fun and games until you get hayfever. #dystopia

So on fediverse at the moment I guess we have multiple identities, multiple services + data stores.

One step could be one consolidated identity using multiple services and data stores.

Personally I like the sound of a generic AP server + data store, e.g. CommonsPub, to which other services authenticate as clients, and all my data is in one place.

You could host your own data store, or still have it live on a shared instance. It would be simple to migrate it elsewhere if instance goes kaput.

Just created my first homebrew website club event, woo!
