That is for services rendered, not for a public good. Not saying we should defund NPR but it isn't the same thing.

I think one’s digital identity is still bound to Blue Sky so portability still isn’t possible. I am not sure thought—do you know?

Absolutely agree. Being a nonprofit does not guarantee the ecosystem doesn’t devolve into centralization. Nothing does. I think we should all try to figure out the best governance model for the long term health of the ecosystem. W3C is way too slow. Free Our Feeds is a promising development.

Makes sense. But if Blue Sky has most of the users in the ecosystem and there is no easy path for user migration and interop then we have a new walled garden. I would like to see the protocol broken off into a nonprofit then ensures user portability and interop between apps. Maybe Free Our Feeds.

Welcome! Look for "starter packs" related to your interests to find prepackaged groups of people to follow. Let me know if you need help!

Will Free Our Feeds oversee ATproto? How is the conflict of interest of having a for profit app, Blue Sky, and the open protocol, ATproto, currently being managed by the same org being addressed? Real, not snarky, question. There is so much potential. The world needs this.

I just bought one. Totally solar powered, great features, 80% not owned by Musk, most American car there is. I do wish that Tesla would fire Musk.

Some thoughts on this concern and a pitch for an open design process for said internet governance. youtu.be/WlS_Kau7Z7o?...

This would of course require buy-in from Blue Sky. And ideally other protocols like Activity Pub, and standards like Decentralized Identity. We need internet governance that has its incentives aligned with the mission of enabling an open, interoperable, and performant media ecosystem.

Can anyone here point me to resources about how to start a local news publication?

At least you are offering something. Democracy is hard, and I agree, we should try it.
