Not an endorsement. Just something I encountered:
DEMU - an open protocol for royalty payouts and other financial services for the music industry. When app developers build a music streaming platform on top of the protocol, anyone who has a right to royalties from a song will receive an automatic payout to their personal wallet anytime that song is played. This is done through embedding and tracking the song’s metadata.

"I don't think it is an accident that #podcast is producing this flowering of all kinds of different stuff, and that it is fundamentally an #openprotocol — not actually platform dependent or captured.
Really Simple Syndication (#RSS) which was developed 15 years ago, is an open protocol for syndicating stuff, it was sort of backend for blogs. A lot of that has fallen away from the internet, but it is still the protocol podcast work on."

Given the distribution of people on both Fediverse and BlueSky, it looks like for the next few months I'll do my technical posts here and non-technical ones on @michel-slm.name
Bridgy Fed is really neat!
All decentralised social networks in single timeline: #OpenVibe, for open social media.
Currently supported are: #Mastodon, #Bluesky, #Nostr, and #Threads
Truly useful and simply amazing app!

"tech #platforms & proprietary software environments are not ecosystems. Call them built environments, i.e. designed, rules-based systems that explicitly structure interests to secure specific intended outcomes. It does no good to transmit the suggestion that a #walledgarden is the same as a #livingforest. That an app market-place is the same as an #openprotocol. We shut down an essential way to imagine alternatives. So, every time we read #ecosystem, we say #plantation!"

Dear #fedifriends...
Anytime that you click on your browser reader mode you are implicitly admitting, and confirming, that #smolweb and #Gemini is the right way to read internet pages...

I cleaned up this thread about decentralized contact book in a blog post here:
https://blogue.narf.ca/2023/09/federated-contact-book/
I'm very open to receiving feedback. What is preventing this from existing? This is a old problem; why don't we have a solution yet?

And because it would be an open protocol, you could decide who you trust with your personal data. Sure, you could use #Facebook or #Google, but there would be plenty of independent hosts, just like there are thousands of email providers and phone companies!
Or you could #SelfHost it on your own personal website/server if you have one. I can imagine extensions for Wordpress, Squarespace, Linktrees or wherever people host their website these days.
I just learned about #Nostr today. It seems promising and worth trying out.
What Is Nostr? #SocialMedia #OpenProtocol #CensorshipResistant #SocialNetwork

And still, what has #email become but a despairing medium requiring layers of centralized and personally applied #filters, #rules and #algorithms to crudely finesse out 0.1% of “oh I want that” from the continual barrage of the #SpamPhishFraud firehose?
And we open only a fraction of what gets through—an error-prone daily routine.
Yet it’s #OpenProtocol, free, ubiquitous, and easy to use; it will outlive us all.
What lessons should we learn from it?
🦣 Devs Are Excited by ActivityPub, Open Protocol for Mastodon

@tamitha Fascinatingly, the founder of #twitter works on a twitter founded #OpenSource #NotForProfit dedicated to designing an #OpenProtocol for #SocialMedia which sounds astoundingly like #ActivityPub with the intent that twitter moves to it one day.

Some theories abounding that Jack and Elon are working together to tank twitter to advance BlueSky somehow???
