We need git-ssb

Yes, and it only supports storing one's data in one place. If we use local-first as our measuring stick for a decentralized system then ATProto fails since we can't store the msgs anywhere -- such as on the nodes of my friends. Prior art such as secure-scuttlebot had this figured out, and thus no one ever complained about ssb being centralized.

It is not common, but it is becoming more common: https://arewedecentralizedyet.online/

Twitter Bootstrap 2 was the height of web design. If we can go back and stay there forever why should anyone fault our society.

ATProto would need to use signing key cryptography and content addressable storage to be distributed. If we can't store our data with third parties or create an offline-first system then it's not a decentralized social network.

Codex-cli / OpenClaw. If you need a browser use Playwright-mcp.

I can't see why I'd want an agent to click around Gnome or Ubuntu desktop but maybe that's just me?

I use it. I think everyone should try the original version out before it gets too muddled so they get the spirit of the thing even if it doesn't end up being the thing -- in a safe space where you know what data you're allowing it to claw thru.

This is why I'm hoping fiatjaf has a recommendation here. I have a feeling he might have a proposal that solves this. But doesn't solve all of it, just some of it.

What's stopping us from doing both?

If multiple personal data servers (pdses) share the same set of posts how would we guarantee that they are tamper resistant to third parties?

Do you have ideas about how Bluesky could decentralize?

How does Anthropic detect that a person is using OpenClaw vs using Claude Code?

Forgive me if someone asked this already and I can't find it in the comments.

I received the error, but then my account reflected that I had been credited the $20 eventually but still showed that I could claim it.

As an early Deno purist I must invoke the 10 Mistakes talk that Ryan gave when he launched Deno: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=M3BM9TB-8yA&t=11s&pp=ygUScnlhb...

Agreed about the article tone. I'm a Deno lifer over here, and will definitely not try to cover up the mistakes they've made along the way or the trouble their deploy product has had over the past few months. Ryan Dahl is obviously polarizing as a personality for many people, always has been since he decided to "hate almost all software" or even before that when he created Node.js.

I don't use Fresh. Serverless is kind of a weird offering that forces developers to do a lot of work to adjust their programs to running all over the place. I even wish Deno had never supported NPM because that ruined their differentiator.

I'm going to keep using Deno and I hope they use this opportunity to refocus on their core product offering so that I can move back to using it from this VPS that is hosting all of my Deno servers right now.

This obviously needs some iteration on the protocol design as other commenters have mentioned, but I'd still be up for partnering up over here at https://anproto.com/

It can be both.
