Bluesky halts signups, can't handle the influx from Twitter - Where are all these people getting their invites? Feel like I got on the waiting list weeks and weeks ago, still no invite in the mail. That's what 20 years of participating for free on the open web gets you. www.theverge.com #

Twitter appears to be self-DDOSing itself - Some conflicting reports, but the recent rate limiting looks to be causing the Twitter client to DDOS itself. This isn't a good sign is it. I did say in last week's newsletter that the world was heading towards a blocking frenzy. I hope everyone has food and water. waxy.org #

Why Apple's Visio Pro will change movie watching - Om went to watch the new Wes Andersen movie at a theater and describes the experience. He then wonders if the Vision Pro will become the next big tech for movie watching. I'm not opposed to it, though I like going to the cinema. The more I imagine watching a movie on a Vision Pro, the more I think I might have a bit of a phobia. Whenever I think about having little screens a centimeter from my eye balls for multiple hours, I get mild anxiety. Btw I've never tried any of these AR/VR products. om.co #
