   This is why I see the BlueSky lifetime as a grace period for fedi to get its act together. It’ll be a lot of work, we better start now. https://mastodon.social/@molily/113480811492965996

     @janl True. There is also more progress I know Wordpress (if that's still a thing), Flipboard, Ghost are all embracing AP. Threads is also moving forward as is https://www.fediscovery.org so things are moving, albeit slowly.

     • dansup
     • loops

     @janl Well, yes. Functionally it's there. But e.g. why am I not asked as part of the onboarding process if I want to opt in for example.I mean is there even an onboarding?
     Also there needs to be some kind of broker to search across the fediverse, not only instance local.
     The only place I see these things being done is @dansup (who never seems to sleep!) with @loops. That looks like steps in the right direction which gives me a bit of hope :)

     • Mastodon Engineering

     @janl @molily Yes 100% The fact that Mastodon did get neither quote posts nor search not to speak of anything innovative done since the Twitter acquisition is really something. There is of course also the fact that money is missing. @MastodonEngineering just needs money to hire a few people to get more than the absolute basics done.

     @mrtoto @janl and even tumblr might follow, now that there is a migration of the Backend to WordPress.
