hell yeah interop is awesome!

soms wel fijn om toch af en toe een klein beetje trots te kunnen zijn op onze overheid

Germany (social.bund.de) and the EU (social.network.europa.eu) already have it. I think it’s very likely that other governments, especially european ones, will start to do this.

With the internet being so dominated by american voices, I dont think a lot of people have fully appreciated the sentiment change in the higher levels of european governments. Sovereign control over their digital spaces is something that is actually mattering on the level of nation states. Its a way of thinking that is kind of new to most people, as we rarely think about the sovereign powers of nation states, and even less so in the context of the internet. But now were starting to do that again, and it actually matters.

I think what we learned with the Silicon Valley Bank disaster is that VCs are absolute lemmings that blindly follow each other in a wild panic. Slashing your valuations by almost 50% surely will lead to the other investors also following. Which most likely will lead to further enshittification for Discord and Reddit as well. Very curious when thats going to start for Discord.
