this assumes they plan on winning an election legitimately
I wouldn’t recommend it either, because it doesn’t exist yet. But its extremely disingenuous to make claims about how it will work when/if it begins federating in the future and declare it EEE.
Do you have any sources for that? I’ve seen no indication they don’t intend to release the protocol as a standard and that is a pretty big assumption
There isn’t a standard because the protocol/platform doesn’t exist yet. “Anyone who wants to connect will be entirely beholden to get the latest published version from Bluesky” is just the definition of a standard. Every standard is maintained by someone. And its also not EEE to make an entirely new system. They are neither embracing nor extending activitypub. They are trying something of their own.
What do you mean it’s not intended to be an open protocol? There is no other reason for it to exist
I’m with you. preemptively defederating feels like shooting ourselves in the foot. It would be great to be able to access content from larger communities on our own terms. If meta starts trying to dictate the rules, sure but as it stands now they don’t control activitypub. I think I’m also in the minority that wants to see the fediverse grow into a proper alternative to traditional social media, though.
Spotify doesn’t make changes like that on its own, the artist probably did that for a reason
Always the right answer
Been using this for a few days now, extremely useful, much better than searching all over like I was before lol. Thanks for your work!
Truly a site of the people
I really wish people would think a bit bigger. I hear “I don’t want regular people here/it doesn’t need to grow” all the time but don’t you wonder how much better things would be if the average person wasn’t constantly on a platform designed to enrage and exploit them?
Usernames are only unique within servers, just like with email addresses. there’s only one [email protected] but [email protected] is a different person
Then there should be a single unified sign up page that sends you to a random instance or something. You still need an easy onboarding process for less technical people
really annoying that they used that name but don’t have the domain, lol
The problem is it takes time and money to do that, which you can’t really get without some kind of structure. I’ve been wondering what a tech cooperative might look like lately. All the weight of a company like reddit, but owned by the users
I think lemmy.world specifically has been having a lot of issues because of the increased traffic. Have you tried any other instances?
It is releasing its own federated protocol, seems like it does a lot more than activitypub. Your account identity is valid on any instance, for example
