The future really is to promote Mastodon and Lemmy. I didn’t understand for a long time that you can interact with all instances from any server.
That’s what’s missing in the info that’s commonly available. I seriously thought until recently that each instance is like a phpBB board where you can use a common software (Tapatalk) to interface with different servers, but you meed a separate account for every single instance.
Alert to that shift, Meta promises to eventually link all its platforms to the “fediverse” — scores of other social media sites, whose users’ posts are visible on all sites, and can be liked and replied to across multiple apps.
All of Meta’s platforms are going to be federated? I’ve only been hearing about this happening with Threads. Does this mean that Facebook and Instagram are going to start using ActivityPub, as well?
i mean fingers crossed for that so that maybe we don’t have to use facebook events
… but also fuck meta
It was the only way to make anyone use the metaverse.
