Tiffany LiThe explosion in growth for Mastodon, including among mainstream, non-tech users, is genuinely exciting. That an open-source, interoperable, nonprofit-driven protocol could reach this kind of success is incredible. The future looks bright ❤️
Mark Gardner@tiffanycli Yeah, I'm gonna be THAT guy… <puts on rms mask>
#ActivityPub is the protocol and #Mastodon is just one package that uses it. I'm happy that the latter's rising tide is lifting all the boats of the #fediverse, but let's hope this doesn't lead to a #GoogleReader #RSS type situation where the ecosystem is warped around its most popular interface.
