@cwebber I remember reading your posts at the time about things like the tremendous amount of work to get from "looks finished from an outside perspective" to "standards-quality work."
And recently I've seen some folks using phrases like "I don't think the designers of ActivityPub would <X>" and I'm like, really, 'cause they're *right here*. You could just ask or go read what was written instead of inventing this mythical crew out of thin air for rhetorical purposes?
@jond @cwebber same here. Blatant. I especially see this in “ActivityPub doesn’t scale” or “what about other standards” topics: people just don’t care to see how much work is needed to actually bring a protocol to life, even if it has downsides
