I've been using fediverse stuff (Mastodon and, most recently, Calckey—I'm just going to use "Mastodon" as shorthand here; purists can bite me) for over a year now and have been doing so full time for about six months, following Elon Musk buying Twitter (since on principle, I decline to give Elon Musk money or attention).

ActivityPods is a wild project that’s bringing the architecture and data capabilities of Tim Berners-Lee’s Solid Protocol to the Fediverse. We dig in to what it is, how it works, and what’s currently possible with the framework.
As Bluesky begins to open up more and more, it’s felt more pertinent to try to wrap my head around it. To help in this, I decided to write out my rough understanding of it from its documentation, in the hopes that it may help others and myself with any corrections from misunderstandings....

I also may be diving too deep too early with this. Appreciate any feedback...
Hello everyone! I’ve pushed out a public alpha build to beta.pangora.social for people to start giving feedback on the design before it becomes more fleshed out...
