Loqi [bsky.app/profile/omg.jacky.wtf] The IndieWeb probably has the best examples of this via indieauth.com because it's either you roll your own OAuth for your data or you use a provider but it's all the same: ask for consent and get proof of said permission.

# Loqi [bsky.app/profile/webwanderapp.bsky.social] The web gets wonderfully strange once you leave the feed. Web Wander is a one-click browser extension for discovering original sites across 50+ categories—no Web Wander account required.

# Loqi [@WebWander] No algorithmic profile, no Web Wander account, no endless feed. Web Wander stores settings locally and sends each click toward an original corner of the web. Nearly two dozen sources, 50+ categories, Chrome + Firefox.

# Loqi [@WeirdWriter] This is stunning. This is what peak privilege looks like on the internet---the fact that a blogger would never even think for a second everyone wouldn't be nice in a chat box.
