Happy 7th anniversary of becoming an official W3C standard, ActivityPub!

I've been active in the fediverse for a bit over two years now, and it still blows my mind that people can use an Instagram-like service and just casually interact with folks who are posting on a Reddit-like service or a Twitter-like service. Just like that.
Great stuff.

@blenderdumbass You'd think so! It definitely should have been.

@spla Nice!

@stefan Amen Stephan. I have perfected the art of writing a response, looking at it and then deleting. I get whatever promoted the response out of my system and thatβs enough. Took me awhile to get the hang of the delete key.

@MiriShuli Ha, yeah, definitely something people have to actively practice.

@stefan I have been the target of "friendly fire" for "being myself" and hardly dare post anything at all these days bar some bland beige comment about the weather or my shopping expeditions. I find it very anti-female on here, so have gone elsewhere.

@Judeet99 That's really disappointing, I'm sorry you have to deal with that.
I am very optimistic about some of the upcoming changes to Mastodon, namely quote boosts with proper privacy controls, and reply controls that should make it easy to disable unwanted replies.
Hopefully by the time these changes arrive, you and others will be willing to give the fediverse one last chance.
