If other federated services gain dominance, they will go the same route. And due to the same pressures. (Spam, bad actors, misbehaving servers, etc)

It’s the best PWA ever made, to my knowledge.

Works on Voyager.

Voyager is premo.

“Managed Decline” That’ll be big.

That really does sound like a bag of hurt.

But it also sounds like a fuller alternative to what the big guys offer. And in the long run it would make it a well rounded space and protocol.

It’s too bad that it sounds like it both isn’t straightforward to implement properly, and attracts heat.

I wish them luck. Privacy and security would be great. People do use these spaces as direct messaging platforms. Even if it’s not the best all around idea. As social spaces evolve, the way people message evolves too. Making it secure earlier in that cycle is good.

Neat!

Ok, that was my experience. I haven’t found a great context/use case for it yet.

It does seem a client could be made that uses the functionality. Or a purpose deployed instance or community could make use of it too.

But I agree, it’s hard to imagine a good use. And your point still stands about how panicking is unhelpful.

You can follow lemmy stuff via Mastodon accounts. 🤔 No? Do I not quite understand how and why that works?

Your point about slowing the fuck down still stands though.
