In the age of AI, how can a platform know whether an account belongs to a real human, not a bot or AI agent? Should every platform have to verify this itself, collecting personal data? At #Trefdag26, @robin.berjon.com and I demonstrated a different model that separates the responsibilities:

pdsmoover.comMove your Atmosphere account to Eurosky Social · PDS MOOverEurosky Social is an Atmosphere host with 28,762 accounts. Building open social web infrastructure and apps in Europe. Public interest non-profit, part of… Move your account there with PDS MOOver.

Did you know - you can use @mu.social with your existing Bluesky account, no need to move to Eurosky. All your posts, feeds and accounts will be there. But you’ll be able to edit your posts and have a companion cat, or dog (or fox).

Our apologies for the service interruption this afternoon. This was due to a fault with Hetzner’s DNS service (a sort of GPS for the internet), which is still ongoing. We have put in place mitigation to reduce the risk of this occurring in the future.

blog.aster.placeAnnouncing Aster - a home for researchers on the open web

We're so excited to see the arrival of Aster ID as a home for researchers on the open web and to welcome them to the @modalfoundation.eurosky.social family. Very lucky that we've been able to support their tech stack at Eurosky 💖

Aster ID@aster.id

The modern research ecosystem of online tools and communities is controlled by for-profit companies. But we think that researchers should be the priority - not the product. So, we're announcing Aster ID: not-for-profit Atmosphere account hosting for researchers.

Heads up! Our fu-feed is going down for maintenance for 1h. Sorry for the inconvenience.

There was a short downtime on Eurosky last night caused by a network problem at our Hetzner data centre. Hopefully it wasn’t too inconvenient.

Our friend @gavinkarlmeier.bsky.social asked in his podcast @hakendran.org today for an algorithmic following feed: top-level posts from the last 48h, ranked by engagement, capped at three per account - but ONLY from the people you follow. So we built it -> Following Highlights

This is just one step forward — there's a lot more that can be built. People used to read the news socially and this can happen again. The internet isn't hostile to news at all; it's the corporations that govern it that are. We can fix that.
