@evan the @eff does advocate for it, but ActivityPub isn't suitable for *all* kinds of web interaction, but it works well for social media applications

@feditips that's also true, I guess other software doesn't need it as much :P

@feditips I actually didn't know that, is this something specific to mastodon or does other software on the fediverse implement this too?

@forteller the fact that there's embed settings made me believe it did, but a PR for that is probably possible ;)

@theDoctor @forteller maybe libredirect is less consistent with it? :nkoThink:

@forteller LibRedirect is also a great option for this ;)

@feditips so, this bridges the gap between smaller instances and the wider fediverse if I understand right?

Sounds interesting, definitely sounds like something I'd use if I ever host a Mastodon instance 🤔

@bgtlover See the linked thread, it's explained there ;P

🧵 1/3 ( :boost_requested: boosts appreciated)

I feel that with all these corporate actions currently being taken, a whole new movement is about to start.

The entire Reddit and Twitch communities are revolting, and smaller projects like Invidious are being attacked as well, yet they stand their ground.

Corporations do not care about their users, they just want to harvest data and make money.

I feel that this all will spawn a movement of people moving to alternative services which aren't controlled by these companies. A movement of people promoting the use of #FOSS software made by people which actually care.

I feel that the events which are currently happening could change big parts of the internet for the better and long-term.

And sincerely I hope that projects like #PeerTube, #OwnCast, #Kbin and other FOSS fediverse projects become more polished and widespread.

@feditips Finally, somebody telling me why groups are better than hashtags! Last time I asked, I didn't get very far.
