AP did not tie it to an instance. It left it up to clients and platforms. Mastodon tied identity to instances

The app also supports Bluesky and the interview is with the developer of SoraSns. That is why Bluesky is mentioned

Bluesky will be opening up Federation this year. There are a lot of Fedi devs that are also working with Bluesky’s Atproto. The podcast and site is not only about the Fediverse but the social web.

I used Flipboard back in its early days. I would love to hear about your experience

[–] dameoutlaw@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah, I truly enjoy Feeeed. It’s cool. There was one that a Fedi dev had but unfortunately I don’t think he’s working on it anymore and it’s no longer available

Would love to speak with you. Are you on Matrix? Discord?

Makes me so sad

That’s not oppression and that’s offensive to suggest such a thing. You and others are making a big deal about blocking Threads and safety. People having an expectation to hold you to account is not oppression in the slightest. Facebook & Twitter are poor examples because they are well over a decade old thus people have built communities and relationships on those platforms. You and others have stated how those that want to federate with Threads due to relationships, communities and interests that are on Meta’s platform isn’t worth the compromise. Yet, you’re saying it is in fact valuable, so valuable you’ll have an account on this “unsafe” platform. That is hypocrisy not oppression

This is nonsensical to me. Why make a big raucous about Threads and others, go through all of these private and secure measures to then have two accounts, one actively on the side or the Fediverse you so called need protection from? That’s some real privilege

It’s refreshing how honest you are and I like the ideas you have. You’re right people use what will benefit them most and not cause too much hassle

This has a lot of nonsense. It gives too much credit while vague regarding LLaMA2. It failed to mention a lot of Open Source work Meta has done lately. It was only from a US point of view and not how the EU has been a thorn in Big Tech’s side. Mastodon has 1.6 MAU and many users have multiple accounts. Mastodon is too small for Meta to care about. Those startups Meta squashed were doing innovative things Meta never seen applied before. When it purchased Instagram and WhatsApp there were many millions of active users. Meta as was many Big Tech companies a part of the W3C when AP was being planned and backed out. The Fediverse is about as old as Facebook so Meta has seen this before, Mastodon hasn’t done anything new on this front. Outside of that there are some interesting considerations
