@darius @cj The ideas are not complicated... they're actually simpler in many ways. But they are different, and do start from a different set of assumptions.
I don't think I'm going to have much success in convincing anyone but the super-interested until I have things that are put in peoples' hands and them trying/using them.
People learn through immersion best. The main problem is that people don't have immersive experience in these ideas.
@darius @cj The likely problem will be, by the time people become sufficiently immersed, it may be too late. The adoption of ActivityPub will be too strongly in the "same-origin" set of assumptions. It may not be possible to undo that level of network effect.
I remain hopeful, or at least keep working, though, because I am fairly certain the alternative is a system that collapses under its own complexity.
I hope I can get tools in peoples' hands in time. :(
