With Meta starting to actually implement ActivityPub, I think it would be a good idea to remind everyone of what they are most likely going to do.

As opposed to being crushed under the corporate machine?

as opposed to having 100m users in less than a year compared to 1.5m in 7 years

Oh stop.

There are several communities I follow that are either husks of what exists on Reddit or aren’t here at all.

I wish I could just get everyone to move but it just isn’t happening.

does sub have 141 million users

[–] capital@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

No.

But to participate in them, I must go use one of the most popular websites in the world.

It’s almost as if there will be a good subset of users from almost any website. Which is worth federating to access.

is it worth federating with genocide enabler

[–] capital@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes.

You can already access their resources using IP and DNS.

I want to treat ActivityPub like plumbing.

Why would anyone want millions of users to come here? Everything that becomes popular or has potential to make a lot of money is always ruined eventually.
