That’s all nice an idealistic and shit, buut…

It’s a core selling point of activitypub/the fediverse. It’s the reason why we’re on Kbin and able to interact with people across countless other instances. It’s also how email - the #1 thing all of this is compared to - functions. If we aren’t going to seek sone level of interoperability with the “larger Internet“ then why are we doing all of this? There are far easier ways to run forums and interact with people. This is incredibly convoluted when you get down to it and it’s because we are trying to foster a decentralized, relatively diverse ecosystem.

Please do not patronize/dismiss me like that. Presumably we are both adults and can handle respectful disagreement.
