Yeah, programmatic finance, banking APIs or protocols, etc. The obvious hurdle is primarily security across networks.
Perhaps then you might be interested in the @spritelyproject, which is trying to solve distributed finance amongst other problems, using Object-capability theory.
@emacsen
Related, have you heard of #PlainTextAccounting?
We've been making enormous progress on the CapTP layer of Spritely Goblins, which lays the foundation for all the major distribued networked components of Spritely to come!
But... what exactly is CapTP, and what does it enable? https://spritelyproject.org/news/what-is-captp.html
@cwebber
I'm super excited, congrats on your breakthrough! I'm dying to contribute when I have the chance to (and when I understand enough to). I'm slowly understanding the potential of @spritelyproject.
Keep being visionary.
I've made massive strides on CapTP for @spritelyproject and honestly, I think this is the most important work I've done in my life. But it's hard to explain *why* when few people even know what CapTP *is*.
So: CapTP explainer 🧵, right here (with blogpost to follow):
Google has suspended Element (@matrix) from the Play Store for "Sexual Content and Profanity". Basically same story as with Subway Tooter a while back. Element is to Matrix as Chrome is to the web. Curiously, Chrome is still on the Play Store.
I wrote a small, colourful fetch for MSYS2 on Windows. Written in hackable POSIX sh.

I suppose it's on by default.

I'm against this.
@dansup
Is it on or off by default?
@dansup
Indeed, is this feature optional?
@cwebber
Exciting :)
eg: "I'm on the Jabberverse! Message me using any Jabberverse app."
lol sounds stupid but so does every new term.
It intuitively evokes federation and a plurality or clients, even if a normie can't put it in words, something "Jabber/XMPP" doesn't really evoke in natural conversation.
def: #Jabberverse
The distributed instant messaging network of federated clients and servers governed by the XMPP (Jabber) protocol.

Throwing it out there.

It might have been so in certain circles but there's never been a strong consensus afaik.
I took it apon myself to make a stand and narrow down a most applicable definition for the Fediverse on Wiktionary.

@cwebber briefly gave contributed his opinion for the entry too.
