This week on my revolution.social podcast I talk to @mike of Flipboard, the dot.social podcast, and former Netscape executive. We go through the way we created an open internet on the web and how that was lost in the social media smartphone era, concluding with the struggle to restore an open [โฆ]

NY Times headline: Super Bowl Visitors Find San Francisco Better Than Its Apocalyptic Image Problems with homelessness and open-air drug use have been widely broadcast, but many visitors this week said they found the city surprisingly pleasant.
The New York Times has done as much as any Big Journalism organization to badmouth San Francisco in recent years. Now it pretends to discover -- by quoting visitors -- that the image isn't the reality.
No doubt, the doom-loop crap will return soon.

The image by European Elopement and Wedding photographer Sturmsucht depicts a tranquil, rustic scene in mountainous Norway, illuminated by warm, golden sunlight. In the foreground, a woman with long reddish-brown hair, wearing a dark flowing dress and a white top, walks up a gentle grassy path to the left, suggesting a peaceful stroll. To the right, two traditional wooden houses stand side by side: the closer one is deep red with horizontal planks and a steeply pitched, moss-covered terracotta roof; the other, slightly behind, is made of weathered brown wood with a prominent white-framed window and a white chimney. A rustic wooden fence winds through trees in the middle ground. In the distance, rolling green hills and a hazy mountain ridge stretch beneath a soft, partly cloudy sky. Lush foliage and scattered trees enhance the natural beauty. The overall atmosphere is one of quiet rural charm, evoking an old village or farmstead nestled in a serene valley.
Last autumn days in Norway. We passed by an old historic farm and were lucky to be the only people visiting the heritage farm with its colourful houses. The sun brought warmth and beautiful light as it crossed the surrounding mountains. Green meadows and [โฆ]

China is to ban hidden door handles on cars. Instead, vehicle doors must have a mechanical release function, inside and outside. The purpose is to make cars safer after electric vehicle accidents where electronic doors reportedly failed to operate and trapped passengers inside. Here's more from [โฆ]

TikTok's transition to U.S. ownership involves collecting even more data about its users, including precise location and AI interactions. It's also likely that the new privacy policy will lead to you seeing more targeted ads. Here's the lowdown from @WIRED.

Love this!!!
Today's Search Engine and Hard Fork podcasts were super fun to listen to!!
Excited that @caseynewton @kevinroose and @PJVOGT are building their own Mastodon instance called the Forkiverse.
And I absolutely loved the vibe coding experiments Casey and Kevin did to make their own personal web [โฆ]
