If a VC thinks it's a good idea, it's not a good idea.

Twitter has no real incentive to use ActivityPub

1. They don't control ActivityPub. Anything added/modified to the protocol will be seen as Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

2. No Fediverse instance will federate with them so it won't matter to them. Well, no one with common sense, which I hope covers most sysadmins

3. DRM is coming to a TL near you. Think of HDMI "proto-cables" connecting "producers" and "consumers"

4. Money (See no. 3). Want in? Here's a federation key with your subscription fee

Code paid by the people should be available to the people!

I love capricorns. I happen to be one, but I also like them as a creature concept. A goat, designed for climbing on mountains, and a fish, designed for swimming in the sea. Nearly opposite ends of the earth combined into one. It describes my often conflicting personality perfectly.

I did this sketch for the Canvas Swap Magazine, but fell in love with it so much that I decided to ink it myself using my brush pen. If you were at MFF, you hopefully got a chance to see it in the art show.

The blood of poor Americans is now a leading export, bigger than corn or soy
