ICYMI! @[email protected]'s Dot Social interview with @[email protected] came out earlier this week. They discussed the early days of Bluesky, innovating on social identity, and the benefits of an open social graph. "That right of free connection and communication is something that I think we've really lost in the world where there's just a few large companies that allow or deny interoperability, depending on how it serves their business interests," Graber said.
