The mission-driven tech company behind the Firefox browser, Pocket reader and other apps is now investing its energy into the so-called “fediverse” — a collection of decentralized social networking applications, like Mastodon, that communicate with one another over the ActivityPub protocol.
They have to start somewhere. Mastodon is the highest profile app in the fediverse and it’s best to capitalize on Twitter imploding while the dregs are hot.
Don’t worry, Reddit will do something stupid to get in the headlines eventually.
I’m just hoping that Peertube is in a spot to capitalize when Youtube crashes and burns in a couple of years
It’s not. I wish it was, but it’s not.
I meant more as “will be” when the time comes
Mastodon does exist though, i have a feeling other parts of the fediverse need more help
