X-odus: What’s the Best Alternative to Twitter? With recent changes on X/Twitter, many are exploring alternatives. BlueSky has seen a surge in user registrations, while Mastodon remains a strong contender. But here’s the good news: you don’t have to choose between them. Thanks to their decentralized infrastructure, BlueSky and Mastodon are interoperable. This means you can use both platforms seamlessly, accessing Mastodon content directly within BlueSky—and vice versa. Here’s how: On BlueSky, simply follow ap.brid.gy. That’s it! This lets you engage with the entire Fediverse, the network powering Mastodon and other decentralized apps. More information: https://fed.brid.gy/docs So, the only decision left is: are you ready to make the switch?

Hi LinkedIn family! 😎 I would like to invite anyone who comes across this post in their feed to #collaborate on a project of a significant scale. ✨ If you’re interested in any capacity, or would simply like to chat, please message me! The front-end is largely complete, built in #React with next.js. I’m developing the schema for the backend, and I’m still deciding between node.js + pg https://lnkd.in/e2-aP8gh Or Python / Flask / PostgreSQL (sqlalchemy) https://lnkd.in/eFvrhT3Y ✨ This project will be a Nostr client to host relays, allow bitcoin lightning transactions, and customization of Nostr feeds. 🧐 If you’re unfamiliar with the Nostr open source project, I urge you (whether or not you’re interested in collaboration) to check it out. ‼️ It may actually be the only true open source #decentralized protocol that can revolutionize social media, advertisement, and content ownership. 🔔 Read about #Nostr here: (open source GitHub) https://lnkd.in/eBECaWfJ

VigilEye is now public! VigilEye is an LLM-based Open-Source Intelligence app designed to analyze Reddit profiles and subreddits. Currently, it supports Reddit, but due to the lack of a Twitter API, Twitter integration will be implemented later. However, if you have tweets scraped locally, you can still use VigilEye with the VigilantClassifier class to analyze Twitter or any other platform. To get started, you'll need a Reddit API key, an OpenAI-compatible API (further details and options are provided in the README), and to clone the repository to your local machine. You can then analyze subreddits and Redditors for your specific use case. I began building this app this morning, and it has a long way to go. Please give it a try and let me know what you think! Future updates will include linking users to databases for enhanced usability. By the way, there's an example output in the export folder if you'd like to check it out. The output can be customized to fit your needs by modifying the Jinja templates or creating your own.

We just hit a milestone I never dreamed of -- 6,000 Github stars ⭐️ I remember back in February we had heated discussions about whether we should Open Source Skyvern or not There were a ton of reasons not to do it: 1. What if someone stole our code? Rebranded it to their own? 2. What if enterprises decided not to pay us? Just use our open source version? 3. What if people read our scrappy (crappy) code? Roasted us? 4. What if they tried it out and it didn't work? 5. What if they didn't leave feedback? 6. What if the community wants features that we don't agree with? and the most important... 7. What if we open source and no one cares? But a few things made us take the bet anyways: 1. Competition -- we were in a competitive space, and differentiation became harder and harder 2. Long road to 100% web coverage -- Open source could prove as a competitive advantage here 3. Serving cost-sensitive users -- there's a small subset of vocal users that always want a cheaper product. Open source is a way to serve them without hurting us 4. Self-hosted enterprise -- open source makes it easy to have a conversation w/ enterprises about self-hosting Looking back now.. it was the best decision we ever made as a company - Claude announces computer use as a tool? We're differentiated by being open source + model-agnostic - Twitter's ex-ceo announces they're competing with us? Still closed source and a part of the crowded market we're differentiated from - Monetization difficult? Turns out enterprise features such as authentication create a powerful sales draw It's been an honour to share everything with you all so far -- hope you keep following our journey!

Hello Everyone ! Excited to share my latest project : X(formerly twitter) clone 🚀 🔹I have tried cloning User Interface page of X with everything i learned recently. 🔹The major technology i have used in this project is tailwindCSS. 🔹While working on this project,I came to know how social media websites work and how it is design to captivate and engage visitors. After using tailwindCSS i have realised my efficiency have increased and i am more productive than before. #X #twitter #webdevelopment #tailwindCSS #project #UserExperience

🌟 Excited to share a sneak peek of my latest project! Behold, a visually stunning web clone of Twitter, crafted with precision using Tailwind CSS. While it's just the interface for now, stay tuned as I continue to refine and add functionality.

How Bluesky Was Influenced by Scuttlebutt, a P2P Protocol https://lnkd.in/gfTxqiYr When Bluesky passed 20 million users earlier this week, CEO Jay Graber listed twenty facts about the Twitter/X competitor. One of them was this: “Paul, Bluesky’s CTO, built the earliest version of the Bluesky app, and the first client for Secure Scuttlebutt (SSB), a peer-to-peer networking protocol.” Bluesky’s CTO is Paul Frazee and it’s interesting to look back on his journey as a P2P-obsessed developer, which eventually led to him playing a key role in Bluesky. I last looked at Scuttlebutt back in July 2021, when Bluesky was just a research project within Twitter (Graber herself was only hired in August of that year). At this point, Scuttlebutt was a decentralized P2P protocol that a handful of obscure social media apps had built on top of: Manyverse, Patchwork and Planetary were a few that I tried. So Scuttlebutt was a niche part of the decentralized web, at best — Mastodon and ActivityPub were seen as the up-and-coming projects of 2021 in this domain. But I found the design of Scuttlebutt intriguing, because it was based on content being self-hosted and only periodically sent over a peer-to-peer network. Scuttlebutt’s creator was Dominic Tarr, a New Zealander who lived on a boat and had sporadic internet coverage. So the architecture he chose — writing content on your device and only syncing it with the network whenever you connect to Wifi — was inspired by his own lifestyle. (Interestingly, this architecture matched my first blogging tool, Radio Userland in 2002, where the content lived on your computer and you synced it as needed to the network. So perhaps that’s why I liked Scuttlebutt.) Scuttlebutt creator Dominic Tarr; image via YouTube. From Scuttlebutt to Beaker to Bluesky Tarr created the Scuttlebutt project around 2014 and Paul Frazee was the first external developer to join him. In a recent Hacker News post, Frazee said that he built Patchwork, the first Scuttlebutt client (one of the apps I used to research my 2021 article). But it seems that Frazee grew disenchanted with Scuttlebutt because it wasn’t scaling from an end-user perspective. “It’s an aggressively anarchist technical model,” he noted about the protocol, but he had “serious concerns” about its ability to attract users. Frazee took the lessons of Scuttlebutt and applied them to a new project he started called Beaker Browser, which was a P2P browser built on Chromium. I’ve actually written about this too, back in February 2018 when I ran an indie blog called Blocksplain (focused on blockchain technology). Beaker itself didn’t use blockchain, but it was clearly inspired by Scuttlebutt. Here’s how I described Beaker in early 2018: “Beaker went ahead and developed its p2p browser without any blockchain. So where is the data stored, if not on a decentralized, distributed database? It’s stored locally, on the computers of users, and shared when requested using a p2p...
