I love a these angry anti-AI responses here, as if being vehemently against AI is the "default" or logical leftist position, and if you think otherwise, we you are not a real leftist.

Congress to vote on Trump’s war powers in aftermath of Iran strikes in c/politics@lemmy.world

Democratic leadership is in the pocket of Israel, so that's not actually that surprising. They are not just complicit, they are actively enabling this illegal war. It's the Iraq war all over again.

Idea to integrate the indieweb more closely with the fediverse. (piefed.social)

I have been exploring ways to increase connectivity and overall audience for the fediverse, and one way I have been considering is developing ways of linking fediverse accounts to the indieweb.

The way I am picturing this would work would require an identity layer that creates an umbrella identity for fediverse accounts, and links them to an indieweb url as a user's primary identity. This could be done using a DID system that has a series of methods that links these accounts to the site as the overarching identity. This could facilitate the development of new platforms that serve as a "universal translator" across fediverse accounts, bluesky accounts, etc, while also pointing to a users website as their primary profile, which could serve as everything from personal Myspace style websites to band/artist/business websites/portfolios. This could be a way for users to seamlessly browse between the indieweb and the fediverse, and could allow for easy syndication of content across platforms, in a more comprehensive way than current tools allow.

Could this work, and what sorts of issues might it present in terms of presenting a coherent link between platforms?

Idea : a sync app for our fediverse accounts in c/fediverse@piefed.social

I am working on this. I have a local post archive that syncs with bluesky accounts. I am using DIDs as the primary identifier, and hope to incorporate activitypub and rss soon under the same identifier. I have also created a social graph importer for walled garden sites, such as facebook/instagram, so folks have an escape hatch for all their legacy social media history, and a way to manage exported files in a nice file browser format. I will have something to share in the near future, but suffice it to say, I think storing your data locally is an idea very worth pursuing.
