Again, I, among many others, am working on user agency, not top down mandates about what technology everyone should use. People, not platforms includes "not protocols".
If you're still having arguments about protocols in 2026, you've already fell behind. Listen to the people or they will not listen to you, because they weren't last year or the year before or the year before that.

I don't understand - is the goal to decentralize or for everyone to fall in line and use the protocol you think is better? These two two things are not only not the same, but polar opposites.

This is what I mean when I say the Fediverse is centralized around Mastodon. The number of calls I hop on where people say, "Yeah, but I need it to function with the Mastodon API first," is a problem.
The Atmosphere has a similar Bluesky-ification issue as well. We all need to do better here, and I wish the biggest platforms on both sides would take the lead on this if they care about the broader ecosystem.

Bsky growth began before their Series A, at which point they already had 13M users. They had a proven product, and I think that's important to remember here. I'm not aware of any VC funding since that round.
It's also important to remember that there was also a huge push to get everyone on Mastodon, but it did not stick for average users. AP is not a victim here. It's had numerous chances, and will have more chances regardless of Bluesky and ATProto.

My underlying point wasn't even that things are happening. What I'm trying to say is that Bluesky and ATProto are here, and whether you like that or not, we need to reckon with it. There are ways, especially in this phase of development and growth, where you can distribute that power, and it doesn't happen by ignoring it or telling people to use something else you think is better.
Seize while you can; numerous of us are doing so.

"When fediverse users say they don’t want to be bridged to Bluesky, they’re applying an ActivityPub mental model to ATProto infrastructure. In one sense this is a bit of a category error, the bridge connects to networking infrastructure, not the application. This way your’e not just refusing to federate with the Bluesky-the-app but with the entire ecosystem, including apps with different values, such as Blacksky or Leaflet."
This. It's like blocking the entire Fedi because Threads is in it.

You could use Bridgy Fed to convince folks on ATProto why ActivityPub is better and point them to Bounce so they can migrate without losing their network.

I agree with you there! But often it's not about *how* public things are, it's more about *where* they're public. In other words, many users I've spoken to who are either not bridged or are straight-up anti-bridge have chosen that route because they don't (yet) trust the entities on the other side to have that much ownership over their data. There's also a cohort who don't want to have to depend on *us* to bridge them either.
It's a lot more complex!

I understand the instinct of "make these work together", but there are technical and cultural differences that make it more than just two standards talking to each other. A couple of simple examples are "I don't want to be in a public, auditable firehose" or "I had a bad experience there, I don't trust them with my safety."

Appreciate all the kind words in the thread! That said, I still strongly believe opt-in is a feature, not a bug. The right solution isn't to force people onto networks they don't want to be a part of; it's to clean up the rough edges of unbridged interactions and content so it makes less of a difference.

Another way Mastodon centralizes the ActivityPub experience is through the Mastodon API.
In an ideal ecosystem, I should be able to use the ActivityPub API when building a client or competing platform. However, due to the popularity of Mastodon, every builder has to support the Mastodon API, which is under the control of the Mastodon organization. (1/2 🧵)

I have to ask - is building something drastically different in parallel while still making compatibility easy a bad thing?
At #Fedicon, ActivityPub and ATProto folks were discussing pros and cons of both solutions and exploring how the other could fill those gaps in tangible ways. We're sharing ideas, improving each other's solutions, and doing them in *very* different ways while still being interoperable.
This kind of competition is good for innovation.

I know a lot of folks here have their qualms about Bluesky, but I hope folks are paying attention to what Rudy Fraser and Blacksky Algorithms are doing to decentralize their community from Bluesky PBC infra.
Decentralization at every level of the stack is happening on ATProto. It started *within* the Bluesky infra, slowly drifting away one step at a time, and it's inspiring to watch it all happen.

"Is the future of the open social web one dominant protocol or bridges and duct tape?" @npub1e9x…msz2 at #Fedicon
The future of the open social web is people connecting with people no matter what technology they happen to choose. And if bridges and duct tape is what's necessary, then we'll continue building bridges, because it's connections and community over everything.

Bluesky, being the largest ATProto AppView, means that their moderation decisions have the broadest impact on the ATmosphere experience.
Mastodon, being the largest ActivityPub platform, means that their decisions on how quote posts work have the broadest impact on the Fediverse experience.
The quicker everyone realizes these ecosystems are similar, the quicker we can focus on targeting social siloes that still dominate the social media landscape.

2025-07-21 21:03:34 CEST

If you want the Fediverse to succeed, you need to step out and understand why other folks aren't joining.
Sure, you can post negatively about the alternatives using an ActivityPub account where no one else can see it, or you can go to the other platforms and tell them why you look down upon them. But neither of those is working, right?
Identify what we're missing. Build it. Work with makers. Fund projects. Stop yelling in your bubble. And, for god's sake, stop spreading misinformation.

"Bluesky and Mastodon are dead"
Meanwhile, Kat Abughazaleh: "Bluesky outperforms YouTube, Threads, and our social media ads by about 2:1 per site."
@npub1lrq…pn8w similarly has said @npub1qmg…s6k5 fundraisers do best on Mastodon.
Dead for whom? Perhaps folks with dying audiences elsewhere.

Wow, can't believe I missed that @npub1lzd…urpr now supports long-form articles, RSS/Atom support, *and* has an "Articles" feed builder preset.
This is...starting to feel like an endgame platform for me.

In the last five years, we've gone from "employees will never have to go into an office" to "employees need to be in the office because creative and innovative work can only be done face-to-face between humans" to "lol we don't need humans"
