Initially GreatApe was designed to be a fully stand-alone platform — comparable to Mastodon, PeerTube, etc.
But, later I changed my mind.
Later, began to think that — it would be better for the Fediverse if back-end servers and front-end clients were not only decoupled, but separate projects.
And, better if we the Fediverse had a number of plug-in systems.
And, back-ends were broken into separate services.
Etc.
