They went too far left. I left the plantation and god forbid ActivityPub just be left as a sacred place.
Yeah, the first companies to support Linux clearly saw it had a shit ton of money. If it's a good idea, the right people will pick it up, even if we're dead by the time it happens.
25 here. Sick and fucking tired of people calling my gen "digital natives"
No, they re-publish the work of WHATWG in standards form, the vendors literally made a pact not to deal with them. Then sometime in the last decade they standardized EME, even after the technology activists told them fucking not to. Defective By Design said this shit for years, decades, and W3C ignored everyone. I have more reason not to trust Berners-Lee at this point than put any stock in his leadership skills.
The W3C has shown in the past that it can't be trusted not to take bribes. See alse: EME
When they do go that route, I propose the community fork the standard and continue work that way. We already do this with code.
Emphasis on vile shit
I'm going to recommend that if W3C starts accepting changes to the AP standard from Meta, the community must maintain a fork that rips out any offending parts.
I run my own instance here at twisti.ca and have the full intention of defederating
Regardless of what anyone thinks about politics, nothing good will come by letting them in. I hope all current instances defederate, I know mine will.
Just turned a few days ago. Welcome brother!
