With Meta starting to actually implement ActivityPub, I think it would be a good idea to remind everyone of what they are most likely going to do.
articles like these are why mastodon and the fediverse will continue to be irrelevant and niche
As opposed to being crushed under the corporate machine?
as opposed to having 100m users in less than a year compared to 1.5m in 7 years
quality > quantity
Oh stop.
There are several communities I follow that are either husks of what exists on Reddit or aren’t here at all.
I wish I could just get everyone to move but it just isn’t happening.
does sub have 141 million users
No.
But to participate in them, I must go use one of the most popular websites in the world.
It’s almost as if there will be a good subset of users from almost any website. Which is worth federating to access.
is it worth federating with genocide enabler
Yes.
You can already access their resources using IP and DNS.
I want to treat ActivityPub like plumbing.
Why would anyone want millions of users to come here? Everything that becomes popular or has potential to make a lot of money is always ruined eventually.
Freedom is the goal with the fediverse, so I’d prefer it stays niche than become like reddit. I used reddit and now sadly Instagram too and the users can’t be compared to Lemmy. Instagram is obscenely toxic, I will never doomscroll there again it was worse than reddit, which was also still pretty bad.
However what I really can’t stand is the slow restrictions, the watering down of content to the point where it’s insufferably bland. I came here to escape that. Post whatever the hell I want to post and browse whatever the hell other people felt like posting. The sincerity of everything is what makes the fediverse special for me.
