@alex something similar to this

@pasture You're right, but we need two or three max. Pleroma, Mastodon, and Misskey are fine. But Lemmy? Do we really need another backend written in Rust?

@pasture

1. Web browsers are backed by companies with millions or billions of dollars. Fediverse software is made by poor people desperately struggling to usurp big tech tyranny but failing to rally around a single codebase.

2. Good idea. It would increase interoperability and reduce waste.

This arrogant view of the fediverse is just like ActivityPub itself. To wit:

"We have a solution to all your social networking needs".

Actually you don't. Have you even asked me what problems I require solutions for?

"No. Because you don't matter. Only we do. If our solution doesn't solve your problems, you need to redesign your customers and their needs so that our solution works for them".

No. My customers were here long before you were and we've met their needs and have the working code. You don't. Ergo, you have the wrong solution.

"We will crush you like a worm because we are the chosen ones. and you will be assimilated or die."

Have a nice day.

I really don't understand why there are so many competing fediverse backends. Frontends makes sense. Backends... just use Pleroma. Writing a new one is way too hard. It would be easier to fork Pleroma and add any additional functionality.

Nothing gets your blood pumping first thing in the morning like a triple coronary bypass surgery.

@realcaseyrollins I heard that soapbox is pretty good, never used it myself.

I wonder if it is possible to have both the pleroma FE and soapbox at the same time.

No one cares Hong Kong anymore...

@realcaseyrollins @realcaseyrollins@kafuka.me @realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world I just did some research and apparently, Eugen Rochko was (I don't know if he still is) working on a social credit system like what China has.

I will continue to use #Mastodon but I have ZERO respect for him and will not donate or contribute to the Mastodon project.

@realcaseyrollins @realcaseyrollins Its really fucky, the bannings. They are almost always political — “wrongthink”.

Its terrible, and you miss out on a lot of good folks. Look at say @mewmew at myself, we’re politically very different — but we get along just fine. Politics is one thing, someone being a person is another entirely.

This kind of thing is why I explicitly allowed people of all politics on

@rizzo

@realcaseyrollins @xianc78 @realcaseyrollins @realcaseyrollins Give it a few months, and we’ll have a few different UIs that slot in atop Pleroma, like Soapbox, and instructions on how to do the same with pinafore or halcyon. There’s definitely a diversity of thought, in the fediverse, even if some centers of thought server-block others.

@realcaseyrollins @realcaseyrollins@kafuka.me @realcaseyrollins@social.teci.world If you search "twitter without the nazis", articles on Mastodon are the first to show up. It's clear that this is what Eugen Rochko wants the Fediverse to be. While I personally prefer Mastodon over Pleroma (mostly due to the interface). I clearly see why people have a problem with Mastodon due to the dev behind it.

I just hope that Pleroma will bring more free-speech instances and by proxy, more diversity of thought.
