<p class="intro">
The open social web continues to evolve at a glacial pace, but at least this does make it fairly easy to keep up with. Web standards are still the best way to go, with other more adhoc ones running into difficulties. Anything which is too centralized or too under the control of a single company seems doomed. There is something to be said for being the last robust system standing after a bunch of hasty vibecoded crap has collapsed in a steaming heap.</p>
<p class="intro">Epicyon is designed for an anticipated glorious long term future of the ActivityPub protocol. It is written in the most tedious trend-avoiding way possible, with few dependencies, no database to get corrupted, suitable for running on old hardware at minimum cost, and definitely with <b>no "AI" features gratuitously foisted in</b>. In challenging environments, it can also run from an onion or i2p address and use text mode browsers with no risk from javascript exploits. While the industrial silicon valley behemoths are busy pumping out information pollution, and sinking into the swamp of <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/enshittification#English">enshitification</a>, the small and meek gain advantage.</p>
<p class="intro">Epicyon will always be AGPL licensed, to nark off the whingers.</p>
