We need to protect the protocol that runs Bluesky
I don't know why your comment is being downvoted, first I heard of the protocol.

Is that because of it being crypto adjacent?

A Social Media site where “No Humans” are allowed and AI Bots run the show
I think the next stage is decentralized social media. Something like nostr (1) where there’s no centralized entity determining the algorithm to boost. It’s up to the individual to follow users.
Perhaps the next challenge would be human verification, even with this protocol we’d need something to index public people by to handle discovery.
Even before LLM’s became as mainstream as they are, most social media platforms were riddled with spam: affiliate marketing, drop shipping crap, and people who are running some sort of con.

It's time to go NOSTR
Considering that Reddit might not be able to negotiate better pricing for API usage, it's worth considering a different approach. The future of social media seems to be moving towards protocols rather than specific platforms. This means that instead of relying on a single platform like Reddit, Apollo should focus on using a protocol called NOSTR (you can find more information at https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nostr).
- Now that Reddit are killing 3rd party apps on July 1st what are great alternatives to Reddit?
