One of the many infortunate consequences of the success of GitHub is that lots of developers are now convinced that development has to be a public, social activity.

You do not have to release everything you build. You do not have to accept patches. You do not have to answer to emails or to issues. You do not have to fix bugs or implement features. You do not even have to continue working on your projects.

If any aspect of your public work stresses you, remember that.

Botswana is also the only country in the world with a colour in its flag meant to represent rain (a sort of blue-grey). Not many people know this.

I don't know how we resist the Trojan horse that is #threads, like I don't have all the answers. Digging deeper into what Zuck was doing really just came from a general distrust with every move that company makes (like most people).

But back in December it felt like the best thing we could do is be loud about it. Don't let them dominate the discourse.

When this post made the rounds eight months ago, it was not well received. "Alarmist, conspiratorial" blah blah blah. 😅

Today, it's a bit more obvious what #Meta is doing. So now it's, "of course Meta is pivoting. It's not a big deal."

In eight months from now, when they're migrating the #fediverse to Meta infrastructure, then it will be, "well, nothing we can do about it now."

Mark Zuckerberg's objection to the #KOSA bill is pure political theatre. Once that bill passes, compliance with the new law becomes complicated and pricey. Independent servers will be desperate for help.

And there's only one company positioned to snatch them all up— #Meta.

For all intense and purposes, the #Fediverse will be under Zuck's thumb.

Regulatory capture.

“Economic activity increased—with up to 200,000 visitors per hour—and even the most fiercely opposed merchants have changed their tune.”

When will San Francisco transform merchant corridors (e.g. Valencia, Hayes, Grant, Chestnut, etc.) into economically vibrant ones like this?
