A web programmer and self-proclaimed artist who lives in Los Angeles. I sometimes dabble in the arts of cooking, drawing, gaming, youtubeing, musicing, and just about anythinging.
That should cover it.
@Korlock @nodsocket I get what you’re saying, the internet’s always been like that. But it’s ultimately the internet themselves who pay the end price like now.
RSS was widely accepted, until google made something convenient. Now we’re back to established sites getting first dibs on what you see like old media. Then theres XMPP, man… google… Googles tender embrace turned into deadly smothering.
You can see websites attempting the same thing as Tumblr adds ActivityPub.
@if_you_can_keep_it @Rogueren Assuming that one Federated Service is the end all be all user experience for what you’d like to share can hurt many. In Mastodon I kept seeing people (during the Twitter Exodus) who wanted multi-sever posting to each local feed under one account. Like Lemmy’s cross site posts, not sure if Lemmy lets you cross post multiple times to different communities. But some basically wanted Mastodon to work like Lemmy and FB Groups.
e.g. Main Post -> Community 1, Community 2
@jaykay @kamasupra sorta… like I’m replying via my Mastodon account. Currently there isn’t post creation, though some googling has shown that it’s something they’re working towards.
But you basically copy the Fediverse Logo Link of a post and paste it on search in your mastodon client. It appears as a toot and you can comment; Lemmy will display it natively like this comment.
Favoriting the post on Mastodon counts as an upvote.
Communities appear as group accounts.
