Dozens of facts about the SSH protocol and why we should use it for more things.
An Excruciatingly Detailed Guide To SSH (But Only The Things I Actually Find Useful)
Oh you like SSH? Name every flag.
trzsz/trzsz-ssh
trzsz-ssh ( tssh ) is an ssh client designed as a drop-in replacement for the openssh client. It aims to provide complete compatibility with openssh, mirroring all its features, while also offering additional useful features. Such as login prompt, batch login, remember password, automated interaction, trzsz, zmodem(rz/sz), udp mode like mosh, etc.
Why ActivityPub is the future
We often tout things like “Mastodon is based on open web protocols” as one of its advantages. I want to elaborate why exactly that’s a good thing.
The Case For Universal Login and "Off-Protocol" Services
Mosh: the mobile shell
Mobile shell that supports roaming and intelligent local echo. Like SSH secure shell, but allows mobility and more responsive and robust.

A BlueSky thread by Jay Patel on Skyview
#SciComment I'm curious to know... ❓If you evaluate papers online using PubPeer, blogs, microblogging services, personal websites, etc... why do you like certain technologies over others? 🤔 What prevents you from using PubPeer or ResearcHub instead of other transient or hard-to-find platforms?
AT Protocol, OAuth, and well, decentralization
I've been very happy with how Bluesky and AT Protocol as a whole is going, except for one thing: OAuth.
Dangerous Protocols - Summer of Protocols
Protocols are frequently touted as the liberating alternative to walled technological gardens, but the historical purpose of protocols has always been to simplify decision-making and reduce human agency. How do we reconcile these two narratives? I explore the dangerous side of protocols, and how their ability to drive coordination means they also have
Another reason why it’s so important that we have open protocols for social media.
Kai Kupferschmidt
One of the issues that has come up again and again in my reporting on misinformation and social media is the massive influence social media companies have on research in the field. Last night a preprint dropped that tries to get at this with some numbers. My piece in @science.org (and 🧪🧵 coming):
Easier interoperability between these two open protocols is exciting.
A New Social
Today, we're launching the ability to Bounce from Mastodon to any Atmosphere PDS you have access to, whether it be @blackskyweb.xyz, @eurosky.social, @transrights.northsky.social, @selfhosted.social, or even your self-hosted option! You can also bring an invite code when necessary 🎟️ 1/
The new "Sign in with @cocore.dev" is awesome! The new ssh.socialweb.computer hosted requester uses them, it's a frontend to the AT-proto native compute marketplace, allowing you to simply ssh socialweb.computer to request a new VM from folks you have mutual tangled vouches with
