 Many of you ask me, “What’s the Fediverse’s killer app?” Some people say it will be clients. Some believe it will be the vast array of services. But I think it’s far more revolutionary than that: On the Fediverse, a message is a message is a message. Even if the message originates from somewhere else, it’s a message here. 5 comments
 @atomicpoet I didn't ask what the next killer app would be. I explained what it could be. No other social app let's you create your own client interface the way the fediverse does. If that realization manages to take hold its a game changer. The message is the media. The media is what touches the sensorium. That is the client. @atomicpoet  @atomicpoet @programmablecat I’d argue the Fediverse needs no killer app as it doesn’t live within the realm of competition. And that’s its best aspect.  @atomicpoet I’m not staying on a social network that has meta on it. Either they get defederated or I leave. They do not play nice, and they aren’t ethical. Simple as that. |

@atomicpoet on some level, ActivityStreams can be seen as just a conceptual evolution of rss.
Hear me out.
We wanted to federate what we published and make it easily accessible.
Next, we wanted to federate interactions.
The protocol has potential to become something that empowers a lot of new things.
We didn’t know how big podcasts would become when we first saw rss.
It’s hard to tell what big things will be built on top of this technology.
