@jomc Being compatible with ActivityPub doesn't make 2 instances of 2 services compatible. AP doesn't provide any way for 2 applications to understansd each other, just how to send data for now 8 years. No Pixelfed user can talk or comment with an image or a text a peertube video, they don't know even how to. And both are using AP. You don't talk about this fragmentation, are there any reason ?
@jomc Decentralisation is about distribution of power. When one admin shutdown authoritatively his instance, first, he shouldn't without other third parties approval and user are not armed because of decentralisation itself. But is that reality ? How decentralised mastodon.social (the largest server yet) ? How users would get along with their account in this decentralised network ? ActivityPub federates servers and doesn't decentralise power, afaik.
