Sean Tilley: @atomicpoet @evan @fediversenews I dunno if it's fair to call it greedy or irresponsible for another team to be building their own thing after reviewing competing technologies and deciding on a strategy. I don't think they're acting out of malice. They have their own vision on how they want things to work, and we could probably learn a few things from what their goals are, and what they're trying to do. It's not a bad idea to try to open up a dialogue. It's also not a bad idea to read their docs and blog posts and skeets. Acting like they're an enemy that's hurting our movement is counter-intuitive and makes us look like sore losers. We've been resting on our laurels and delegated most of the big "protocol feature adoption" work to one guy with the most widely installed platform for years now, and for what? Things have to change if we want the fediverse to reach its idealized form. Otherwise, this is all just a big hobby project that's dead in the water, like Diaspora.
