In my opinion there's nothing you can't do with . You want DIDs? You could do DIDs. You want "curation and moderation" to be a separate layer? You can do that. You want "big world" networking? You can add that. Do not confuse what implementers have chosen to do so far with what the protocol is capable of.

@Gargron one can’t reasonably pitch a VC firm with a plan to create a monopoly on #ActivityPub 😂 it’s a feature. Thanks in big part to your work! 🙏🏼

@Gargron what about updating existing posts with a new source instance, can activity pub do that? Mastodon apparently can't.
If it did I could move to a different instance and take my content and followers with me.

It feels like in large parts #ATP is congruent with what the fediverse has to offer, but is different for the sake of being different. I also think that it’s hard to judge a protocol without a real world application. There are some design choices in #ATP that make me feel like they might be awkward to implement in practice.

@Gargron

The fact they felt the need to create another protocol instead of using, improving and contributing to ActivityPub makes me think they want to bake a busines model for themselves into the technology and they can't do that if they don't have full control over the spec.
But we'll see.

@Gargron What's ATP? I find AppleTalk Transaction Protocol, Autonomous Transport Protocol. Did they intentionally choose a name that makes the specs impossible to find? :)

@Gargron Hello Eugen. Are there any plans to add E2E encryption and private messaging? I guess not.
