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:

The whole internet and all of social media has an editing function, except Bluesky because apparently it will destroy society.

Love the @bsky.app team but I think they really got their knickers in a twist as we say here about adding an edit button. Really really not as complicated as some people seem to think it is - literally everywhere else on the internet has it.

I'm not a celebrity gossip person but Macklemore continues to step up for everyone and Ed Sheeran just showed his ass with the "I don't use my platform for politics as my audience includes young people and children" statement when Macklemore got cut for saying "Every child deserves to live"

If you’re trying to be the one app that dominates you’re playing the wrong game. People want more choice, more control and new experiences. Let a 1,000 apps bloom.

We want to free the cats so they can come with across other apps. And maybe you can send them on little quests. Also other things. Wdyt

Little-known fact: if you get verified by all 27 EU countries, you automatically become President of the European Commission. It’s in the Treaties, look it up.

Printers consistently offer the worst, most infuriating user experience. All the big names are terrible and I wish they all get bought by private equity and run to the ground so we can start again.

*not really because these are people’s jobs, but every single one of these printer manufacturers is abusing its position and their buyers.
