@Matisyahu ?️?✡️?????? @Chris Trottier @Sarah Perez ? @Fediverse News PSA: #xkcd927 is a hashtag and not even an obscure one.

Also, the reason why #BlueSky was developed makes me wonder, too. It's quite likely that Jack Dorsey has never heard of #Hubzilla and that it had introduced #NomadicIdentity as early as 2012. I mean, about 99% of all Mastodon users have never heard of Hubzilla, much less its nomadic identity, and I think even every other Friendica user hasn't heard of Hubzilla yet.

It may also be that he wants to replace the decentralised, federated, non-commercial, non-corporate #Fediverse with something decentralised, federated, but commercial and corporate-owned that he has full control over. In order to do this, he had to offer something that #ActivityPub can't do.

Ironically, nomadic identity and the #Zot protocol that uses it are older than ActivityPub as well.
