@risottobias i am watching an old video about NEXTstep, and the model for cross application communication is generic enough that two apps can work together without prior work. My observation is that today, the web basically doesn’t have this, web hooks exist, etc, but that still requires coordination of payloads.

@risottobias any third party service to any other third party service is almost certainly unable to talk to each other without prior coordination.

Something that makes me annoyed about computing is that two systems can’t just talk to each other without prior coordination anymore.
