@darius @cwebber it seems like if your friends want to see every reply, then they may never agree that anything less than that is meaningful.

@cwebber I thought the comparison to libera.chat was especially interesting because they've got one "credible exit" behind them! Back when we were all on freenode, but had to suddenly move to libera to deal with the hostile takeover. Freenode was centralized but the network was able to recreate itself in a way I haven't really seen elsewhere because IRC clients could point to a different server and carry on.

@ljrk @tillshadeisgone @mekkaokereke From what I've read, it's because ActivityPub itself was unfriendly towards features black Twitter relied on (like quote tweets) and just telling people to fork it if they didn't like it.
