@simon honestly: would not sign up to host other people’s content/identity on my blog.

@janl yeah, I get that there's a risk here - but I'm losing faith in the thing where conversations happen elsewhere, I want to post things like "what X do you recommend?" and host the results in one place

If it's no longer possible for an individual to run a comments section that would /suck/

@simon I’d like a system where I can collect others’ comments on my blog elsewhere and re-host them archive-org style.

@simon @janl We have a privacy policy on our podcast website, but only because my co-host insisted he wouldn’t agree otherwise 🫠. I don’t believe the legal requirements are as stringent as some people think, but there’s a lot of vague fear and a shortage of clear, reliable information on the topic. It’d be a shame if this fear ends up leaving the medium in the hands of megacorporations alone.
