User identity lives outside of any one app and we go deep into it on this episode.Show notes:Anisota - A different approach to browsing social mediaFAFOFM Guests starter pack Dan’s blog - Introduction and guest setup - Dan’s background with Blue Sky - What at protocol is built on - Why at protocol matters - At protocol vs. ActivityPub - Identity, portability, and lock-in - Public data, scraping, and AI - Moderation, forks, and the future of AT protocol
