↩️ The #Fediverse is built on the ActivityPub https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/ decentralized social networking protocol. #Mastodon offers a twitter-like alternative with no advertising and fewer trolls.

ActivityPub is a great example of the sort of thing I think of as information architecture that most other folks maybe don’t. But it *is* a shared information environment, using rule sets as structural choices supporting principles for human habitation. https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/

↩️ Nein, es ist richtig und gut so. ActivityPub ist wie eMail dort kann der Empfänger auch entscheiden welche Domains er zulässt und welche nicht. https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/

↩️ https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/ Outbox fetch would seem ideal, from a cache perspective; you could also serverside distinct all the follows, fetch and fan out to people on the server etc. Reality is a bit different though.

After this whole Twitter fiasco, I saw a bunch of people moving of to Mastodon. What I didn’t know was it’s based on a protocol from W3C called ActivityPub, which is basically a spec for decentralized social networks. https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/
