Mastodon's wonderful and Twitter (or anyone, really) should acquihire Eugen Rochko.
If you're going to do the Steve Jobs thing and skate where the puck is going, you should be skating in the direction of ActivityPub. Definitely not in the direction of web3.
- smoldesu 5y agoActivityPub is awesome. I hear a lot of criticisms lobbed towards it (some valid, some pointless), but the idea of federation for a feed-based social network just makes so much sense once you start using it. People who like to hide away and form small circles of friends are given the tools they need to do so. Social butterflies who like to follow thousands of people from hundreds of instances can do as they please. There's also so much room to expand. I'd personally love to see a Disqus implementation that uses ActivityPub identifiers to post comments.
