I was fortunate present my thoughts at #FOSDEM 2026. I think it went pretty well... though a little rushed.

It's at least a good survey of where I think we as a community need to head, and how my work on #Emissary meets each of these needs

Key Points:
* Bring creators to the Fediverse (#OnlinePayments)
* Work together to operate like a single unit (#FEP3b86)
* Killer Features they can't copy (#DataPortability)
* Whatever YOU do, go make the Fediverse better

작성자는 ChatGPT 앱(@ChatGPTapp)이 자신의 데이터를 이전(포터블리티)할 수 없게 한다며 불만을 표출했고, 데이터 이동권(data portability)이 비즈니스 사용자에게도 적용되는지 질문하며 OpenAI(@OpenAI)의 설명을 요청하고 있습니다. 데이터 이동 및 사용권 관련 정책 이슈를 지적합니다.

What email solution would you recommend for non-technical users? Requirements: strong security, not hosted on a US-based cloud, support for email aliases, and ideally custom domains. A one-stop solution is preferred, but I’m open to a mix of tools. Open-source is a strong preference, though usability matters. I’m open to pragmatic tradeoffs, as long as the solution supports easy migration and exit.

Apple e Google semplificano il passaggio tra iPhone e Android grazie al DMA dell'UE, offrendo trasferimento dati completo e wireless durante la configurazione.

📱🔄 #dma #dataportability #interoperability

@ondra I'm not so sure about that (but also lack confirmation). The #DMA does not only mandate #DataPortability with other #gatekeepers but for "end users and third parties authorised by an end user, at their request and free of charge" (see Art. 6(9) and (10) DMA).

This sounds very much like an open standard or at least publicly documented #API to me.

#Google and #Apple jointly work on enabling #DataPortability between devices to comply with the EU's #DigitalMarketsAct.

This is great!

Question is: Will this be an open standard that can be used by independent mobile operating systems like @murena's /e/OS, @GrapheneOS, or @LineageOS as well?

Why has making apps got so complex? Why doesn't a no-code local-first super-app builder exist for non-developers? Could it be all for concentrating power and money in the hands of a few? Or is that overly simplistic?! ;-)

Meet Daniel Harris ( @dahacouk ) founder of @kendraio Foundation at @mozilla Festival Barcelona November 7 to 9. We're building free open-source toolkit infrastructure for non-developers to create apps. Talk to Daniel about no-code, local-first, AI-second and malleable-software.

🔥 RSS/Atom support opens up data portability beyond the fediverse.
You can now subscribe to user feeds, thread comments, posts, articles, events, media feeds, or custom feeds directly in your RSS client.

🔥 Bonfire now supports post imports when migrating instances

You can bring your posts (+ optionally replies) with you when moving to a Bonfire instance from another instance or platform. Imported posts keep their original dates and URIs. Threads are preserved, as are like/boost counts. It works by "boosting" all your old posts (without flooding others' feeds with old activities).

I really need to do this.. I already own labowicz.com and forward my emails sent to it to my main account, so it should just be a matter of changing my email across all the services that I use #dataportability #vendorlockin

Concluding the session was Syrmoudis et al.'s "A Longitudinal Analysis of Corporate Data Portability Practices Across Industries," revealing stagnation in #DataPortability compliance and challenges in fostering competition. (https://www.acsac.org/2024/program/final/s53.html) 6/6

I’ve been doing some thinking on how the #fediverse, the #opensocialweb etc relate to other causes, like #privacy, or #dataportability, or #digitalsovereignty, even the #righttorepair. It appears that ultimately they all want similar things for the users of technology:

More Digital Freedom.

Some people have been using this term for a long time, I’m thinking of adopting it to describe the broader cause. Thoughts?

@andrewt was it #procrastination when you never expected to get to it? #pocket was a personal hope that someday you'd have the leisure time to read more deeply and ponder. Instead it became a reflexive permission to abandon items you once thought curious, alarming, important or useful.

Surprised #mozilla couldn't get @flipboard.com to adopt it. https://getpocket.com/export for #dataportability.
