Haven Blog

I am a technologist.

This week, the popular Twitter/X alternative Bluesky shared that they’re working with Epic Games and the UK Government to do Age Assurance“—verifying the age of a user before showing them adult-appropriate content.

Today’s blog post is something a little bit different.

I love the IndieAuth community, I love what they stand for, and I love a lot of the technology they’ve built and defined.

What is Facebook?

Bluesky is a project/company that came from somewhere inside of Twitter or Jack Dorsey.

You might have noticed a new “Run on PikaPods” button in the Haven Readme file.
