Hey look, it’s my first piece for Rolling Stone! (Thanks @noahshachtman) And I meant every word — I believe we’re seeing the renaissance of the weird, human internet. It couldn’t come a moment too soon. rollingstone.com/culture/cultu

Rolling Stone · The Internet Is About to Get Weird AgainBy Anil Dash

@anildash I’m not sure I love the Xanga/LiveJournal analogy.

It’s more like AOL and CompuServe were to the open web as Twitter and Bluesky are to ActivityPub.

I don’t see Mastodon as “the choice for nerds” any more than the open web had a specific audience.

The promise of Mastodon and ActivityPub is that these different audiences and communities will be able to interact on the same terms.
