Here's a contributor's (pfraze) reason for not using ActivityPub.

- est 4y ago> a preference for domain usernames over AP’s double-@ email usernames This I strongly agree.
- kibwen 4y agoFrontends can just support both. In Mastodon, I can search for either `@username@example.com` or `https://example.com/@username https://example.com/@username` and both will suffice to show the same result.
- est 4y agoI prefer the email format, like username@example.com Double @ just look so ugly.
- simonw 4y agoThe problem with that format is that it had better also work as an email address, because otherwise people will be extremely confused by it.
- est 4y ago> better also work as an email address Sure why not? Make ActivityPub work over SMTP doesn't sounds like a bad idea.
- spookie 4y agoThat would imply that's an email, when in fact it's just a fedi account. It's there for a reason, another one (besides accessibility) is to make it easier parsing for other instances.
