      Honestly I think that reels in general are toxic to mental health. I say we just move on.

          I say we just get everyone on hard drugs. Only kidding, don’t worry. But I’d definitely like some hard drugs for me.

      Arguably, ActivityPub has its shortcomings. Also, having another protocol similar to ActivityPub creates more competition which drives innovation (and gets people away from corporate-controlled sites like Meta).

        And you think Mark Cuban is funding what, exactly? A member’s co-op?

          If you are referencing this article, then he isn’t funding anything. He is willing to consider backing a TikTok like platform that uses the AT Protocol.
