competition implies taking different approaches. i don't think that the cap approach is inherently more confusing. the point is, there is more than one way to make a good UX on top of differing cryptographic primitives. you have one me

yeah, definitely made the right call opting to restore an 89 Bronco II. i have a lot left to learn about it, but at least its simple enough for me to understand and ford parts (even for old cars) are plentiful.

the only way to share identity in a crypto-cap system is to share privkeys, which is a big no-no. much, much safer to have multiple privkeys that are linked with signatures. you probably shouldn't think of ssb id keys as having a 1:1 r

pleroma's media proxy is works just like that and the user experience is fine. actually, i've run instances that don't have caching configured and it still works fine (if a bit unfriendly to other instances).

this is more of a "using passwords" problem than a "decentralized web" problem. password recovery is a band-aid fix over the real password management problem. i think key-based capability security is the future, but it i

growth isn't a huge priority for my fediverse neighborhood/instance cluster. we welcome new people, of course, but it doesn't really matter if you sign up or not. that said, you don't actually need multiple accounts to j

we're working on it ;) there are a handful of proposals for doing SSO on fediverse, but it isn't super high priority since creating multiple accounts (alts) is a pretty common practice here.

if i'm not mistaken, MTF is more common that FTM in the general population, so it might not be tied to culture.
