   Why are developers supporting the Fediverse even though the Fediverse "only" has 10 million accounts?

   Because the Fediverse offers something developers crave: stability.

   As Twitter already demonstrated, they can remove API access from developers for many bullshit reasons -- with no explanation.

   No company should ever depend on Twitter's API -- or any Big Social API for that matter.

   But ActivityPub is a W3C-backed web standard. It is an open protocol. Unlike Twitter, it is more trustworthy.
