It was a good discussion. I think the point about XMPP not having a popular base supporting it, like the Fediverse, also seems very relevent.
It seems that there may be a much larger base of platforms and users that are invested in the long term success of Activity Pub than there ever was in XMPP - as I understand it.
@stpaultim @Gargron @mike “larger base” by people, organizations, or money that can be spent to advance the cause? Xmpp always struck me as having far more orgs involved that had money instead of half the shoestrings that the fediverse has been living on.
