There are storm clouds in parking, and this could impact the domain industry at large. You might be surprised that I'm discussing domain parking as a big topic in 2024.

Is BlueSky still relevant? Mastodon is my comfort place and I think it's the better platform. ActivityPub is a web standard, ATProtocol is not.

To clarify:
1. Ice Cubes isn't the first to support Bluesky accounts via Skybridge
2. This doesn't enable "cross-posting". Instead, Ice Cubes lets you read, post, and reply to Bluesky content in a Mastodon client, as well as view Custom Feeds.

Remember, the phones that used to be on planes were subsidized by SkyMall. They really expected people to pay $0.69 (nice!) a call to order weird shit on a plane. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airfone
