@atomicpoet It can do all the same things Matrix does though. My understanding of the Fediverse was that it was a network of public social networks. I would say Matrix is a messaging protocol. Oh well, it's not important. My philosophy hasn't changed since the 1970s. A message is a message. What transport network you worship on any given day isn't relevant.
@atomicpoet @adam@social.librem.one If people can solve Groups & people being able to communicate across the divide, I think you could get a lot of people to leave FB. Aside from inertia the three reasons I see most are: I can keep up with family and groups are high on why they stay. The other one is “I feel safe” and I don’t know how to provide them with compelling info beyond what is already out there. |
@adam I'm fine with email being part of the Fediverse, although it's of a different generation.
