@mergesort @maybeanerd @tchambers @activitypubblueskybridge The difference is that Activitypub is already competing against the current, locked, social media landscape, where all the money is. So AT splitting up that little area, instead of working to improving AP, is just making the transition to open social media even harder. You see it with how people splitting between BS and AP services makes it even easier for Threads to dominate.
