@atomicpoet @evan It was single-handedly one of the most disappointing things I've had to deal with. The current people working on the project came down hard in criticizing it. Several people got really nasty, and that mindset kind of trickled down to the user community. I've had my fair share of failures when it came to managing the Diaspora project, but failing to steer the community ideal towards interop is one of my biggest failures. I'm extremely bitter.
