@jasohill I do have issues with the way Mastodon devs are developing their software.
ActivityPub, in general, is way more than *just* mastodon, as I'm sure you know. But, since they have 72% of all instances on Fedi, they can just make their own features, without worrying about adding value to AP. This forces other devs to adopt their code or be left behind.
I think overall, this is bad for Fediverse and needs to stop happening. Though, I don't think it will and the other devs will just have to deal with it, unfortunately.
Sorry to infodump my negative opinions, but I do think it should be talked about.
