That’s your opinion there’s people that believe it is. There’s people that don’t believe anything that isn’t ActivityPub is a part of the Fediverse which is strange because the term was used well before ActivityPub. But I get what you’re saying from a protocol perspective I can more so agree from your angle

I think people get the wrong idea about Nostr. To be honest I’ve seen a lot worse and illegal content on the Fediverse. Depending on the client and relay there’s a ton that can be filtered & muted.

Hopefully they go to court to get an injunction. Hopefully, they also go to the powers that be in the EU, those same powers have been so focused on the Apple App Store they failed to take into account Google can do something like this with the Play Store. It would be a shame for the F-Droid project to end but it is completely avoidable.

Except when it comes to women and girls, he’s absolutely wrong

I would argue that’s centralisation. Instances are inherently centralised, they own the user identity, relationships and data. A user “migration” which isn’t really a migration it’s an alt account on another server, if that server is blocking or is blocked then that users social graph can be significantly impacted. There’s no way to really migrate their content.

The login wall is set by the user not by Bluesky. It’s a privacy setting

How can I contact you?

How do we keep track of the project and support it?

This has long existed. It’s an Open Social Web client called SoraSns

I get what you lot are getting at but my objection is this, at least when it comes to the Mastodon part of the Fediverse it gets advertised as the nicest social experiences. Mastodon not the Fediverse has a moat on civility, some of the most nasty experiences I’ve seen people have is on fedi. That creates a very different expectation and thus people don’t want to hear “that’s the internet for you”. If it wasn’t marketed as such then I’d completely agree with the points being made.

Can you share the proposal? ActivityPods is something else. https://activitypods.org/

Can you site your sources?
