DenSchub: btw I thought your blogpost was thoughtful... I started to compose a reply but didn't really get around to finishing it
#
cwebber2
DenSchub: I don't agree with a lot of the points though
#
cwebber2
though I thought they were nicely said :)

it's fine if people don't agree! looking forward to your reply :)

the only reason i got annoyed at the twitter thingy was because they used my post as a justification to insult others, and uh, that's not how i roll.
#
DenSchub
i don't expect everyone to agree with me

i really enjoyed https://dustycloud.org/blog/on-standards-divisions-collaboration/, btw. but sadly, i did only read it after i finished my post, otherwise, i would have included it :/

i liked the post too, but found that a few of the points clashed with my current understanding of how activitypub works, but not nearly experienced enough to know whether i misunderstood your post, activitypub, or neither, or both
#
melody
so also looking forward to the reply :)
#
DenSchub
i'll likely update the post with a link to both the standards post and the reply when they are finished
#
DenSchub
it's probably a good idea to provide some further reading for people who come across the post :)

DenSchub: I haven't gotten very far but there is a typo in the preface s/believes/beliefs

I kind of like the whole URL as actor object thing, it could easily be memorable as https://yourname.blog/ which a lot of people do, but the problem then is having an ID as your root when you may also want to have a "homepage" or landing page type thing and then you still have to implement the inbox/outbox off of that, and the whole thing where no matter where you stick those suburls (inboxes,etc.) it's ugly IMHO. Bigger problem than the names I'm saying

I think I can already guess at least some of what cwebber will say :-)
