Dominik Chrástecký - Blog

I’m a developer and an architect with ~10 years of experience. My languages of choice are PHP (Symfony), C#, Go and Typescript. With a tiny bit of Java and C++ here and there. I often write open source libraries, you can find my work on my GitHub. I started this blog for 3 reasons: I’ve wanted to start a blog for the last 15 years but never had time, I wanted a personal place where I can share whatever’s on my mind, and I wanted to create something that uses ActivityPub.

  • One of my favourite xkcd images! And yeah, creating another competing standard would suck, what’s needed is more of a slow evolution towards a sane standard.

    Edit: Didn’t notice your edit before. Well, I think sending private messages has been part of social media when before it was called social media, so missing that functionality feels like it would unnecessarily hold the Fediverse back.

    As for encryption, I believe it is needed in some form because stuff like GDPR and other privacy laws might as well destroy the Fediverse if some bureaucrat decides they want to look into it.
