How to Kill a Decentralised Network (such as the Fediverse) écrit par Ploum, Lionel Dricot, ingénieur, écrivain de science-fiction, développeur de logiciels libres.

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.

        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.

            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.

                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.
