Deref

It covers Apple/Google tax. They didn’t want to have lower revenue on mobile or go the Spotify route.

Nostr is the Bitcoiner protocol. It’s simple but inflexible and not that censorship resistant (if you don’t run your own relay you can lose data). ATP is more like Ethereum, way more complex but you can build actually useful apps with it.

Feedbro has a simple and customizable UI and supports both Chrome and Firefox.

Valve has a pretty unique flat structure that could protect them from a corporate buyout, even more if Gaben decides to transfer ownership into an employee trust and turn it into a full co-op when he leaves.

This gives me an idea. Make a federated torrent site. It would be practically impossible to take down and one instance going offline because they don’t have money wouldn’t destroy everything like in RARBG’s case.

Bluesky has a global identity system where instance accounts are just links to a DID (basically your private key). If you get banned from an instance you have to change your name but you keep all your posts and likes.

These are all fast, violent and kind of similar to each other:

• Broforce is a platformer with fully destructible levels where you save the world from Satan’s terrorist army. It has more explosions than a Michael Bay movie.
• Hotline Miami and its sequel are tactical top down games about shooting up houses. You die a lot but restarts are automatic so it’s no big deal.
• Katana Zero is like Hotline Miami if it was a platformer. You’re a cyber ninja who can slow down time and reflect bullets with his katana. The story is interesting and very emotional.
• Ghostrunner is Katana Zero but 3D.
