  • @[email protected] @[email protected] if you told me this about 2 minutes ago, i probably wouldve disagreed with you. But, seeing yalls responses, i realise that im asking for a ginormous favour from all developers. Id just make my own software instead of complaining about all of the devs hard word to keep everything interconnected whilst not overwhelming the users with every feature under the sun.

    You have proved yourself to be right. The mere fact that every platform is interconnected means that we are actually… connected!

    Its not perfect, but thats not a reason for me to just take a back seat and watch and complain.

    Id really like to see this grow to become a great community. To make projects like this for the sheer fun and goodness of it, and not expecting money back. Now thats something to applaud for!



  • @[email protected] you are right. I am sorry if i may EXPECT certain things to just work, just recently shifted from Twitter (stopped using twitter in 2023, now on Misskey since 2025). To be honest, i was realy confused with what ActivityPub was in the first place.

    But i am glad i joined the fediverse. Today I Learnt more about the fediverse. A chaotic but really fun universe of interconnected planets.

    I realise that i am asking for everyone to adapt to my needs, and not that i adapt to the ecosystem.

    But now i try to learn… thank you for this informational conversation. It’s still amazes me how platforms scripted in different languages are able to connect with each other.

    My post is invalidated. It’s now retitled to " why we need to reform our way of thinking about social media."

    Still, that wont stop me from making a PeerTube+Lemmy+Misskey platform… ​:ablobcatangel:​

    I may not have conveyed my point clearly.

    If it was merely a Misskey problem, i wouldnt have made this post, so ill list my likes and problems one by one, i may have been vague with communication:

    My likes:

    1. Interconnected: i dont need to elaborate too much. One account, to all platforms…
    2. Opensource: also not much elaboration.
    3. Protocol centric, not platform centric…

    My ONLY dislike:

    1. Lack of definite communication: Misskey may be my favourite, but it sucks the most when it comes to federating with other instances. There is no upvote system, no favourites system, no saved posts system. I can only reply and send reactions, and those reactions may not even federate properly. Same when i was using Mastodon. There was no downvote system, crosspost, etc. The worst in my opinion is the fact that devs are trying their best to federate with each other but throught different ways. My point is, this discrepancy between platforms calls for standardized system.

    I hope i have explained well enough. I apologise if i wasnt clear with this earlier… any solutions to the aforementioned problem?
