@kaia Gwenview?

@dansup @pfefferle @pixelfed @Gargron @Mastodon to be pedantic, AP is based on the pre-existing OStatus, of which Mastodon wasn't even the primary implementation. But when AP was published, Mastodon was among the first if not the first functional implementation to switch over, and effectively “defined” a number of aspects that the spec didn't make clear, in addition to independent APIs.

1/2

@dansup @pfefferle @pixelfed @Gargron @Mastodon this is how it shaped the current Fediverse, for better and for worse. In terms of AP support, Mastodon is severely lacking in some areas, but it also introduced some much-needed enhancements (shared inbox for example IIRC).

@kaia english speakers won't understand

I … what? There's a skunk Unicode codepoint!? There's a whole block of animal codepoints!?

@jon imagine ActivityPub had happened before/during Opera Unite.

(I wrote about it some time ago, this <http://wok.oblomov.eu/tecnologia/opera-requiem-3/> may be interesting for you —beware of typos though ;-))

@j_bertolotti jitsi?

@andygates @trabex @pluralistic fun fact: Main Character Syndrome is called something like “middle-schooler syndrome” in Japan.

@Uilebheist @valhalla @sundogplanets @yvan

can confirm that new ThinkPads are SHIT. Mine lost the USB-C port after a few months, and now has lost the builtin keyboard and the trackpoint keys. Colleague of mine had to send hers for repair (out of warranty) because a key got stuck and couldn't be reset. And I've seen other similarly negative reports here on Fedi.

@LaVi EH MA IL PIROGRAFO MICA TE LO SEI COSTRUITO TU. E LA LANA EH? TI SEI MICA TOSATA LA CAPOCCIA?

Scherzi a parte andando a tagliarmi i capelli di rado ogni volta mi chiedo se con quella gran massa di roba non si possa fare qualcosa.

@kaia if the alternative is a spinning SATA disk, the answer is yes. The only thing spinning disks are better at than SSDs is storage per dollar

@_elena yeah, genuinely asking to make it not go viral was probably counterproductive. That only works if you're trying a double-cross and use that as an excuse to make things go viral 8-D

@liztai that last part is important

@jwildeboer why not use the bridge too BS if it's only intended for promotion?

@dansup the existing Fedi directory projects are most surely among the ones you'd want to coordinate with:
https://fedi.directory/
https://communitywiki.org/trunk
https://fediverse.info/explore/people

@aral @jwildeboer ATproto exists specifically because the existing open protocols were design against chokepoint capitalism. It's literally designed around the existence of a chokepoint (multiple ones, in fact, when you add PLC DIDs)

@jonny @thisismissem @smallcircles @peertube

Part of the issue is that the data model and frontend are too tightly coupled. “Microblogging” or “video publishing” or “photo publishing” should be entirely a front-end issue. The data itself *could* in principle be shared between all of them.

The other pain point (“wrong instance”) comes from the Fediverse, and could be solved with OpenWebAuth, which is one of the FEPs proposed as part of the nomadic identity support

@liztai given your commentary on some protagonists, “stoic” wasn't exactly the term that came to mind ;-)

@Eris @mekkaokereke
so one way this could be implemented is that in addition to my “private” lists that I use to manage my follows, I could have public lists, and anyone browsing my profile could see them and one-click add its members to their follows, or block them (for a block list)? (This doesn't solve the problem of users having to find *me* in the first place, but it would help past that point.)

I guess changes to these lists could come through federation similar to follow requests.
