Even though I'm on here, I honestly lurk most of the time and don't fully understand the activitypub vs at protocol war. This was a great explainer that will reach a lot of people. Really appreciate a lot of David's takes. I hope David and others at MKBHD become aware of and talk about Lemmy soon too.

Yeah, that's true. But if we consider "the Fediverse" to mean "internet forums that support Activity Pub", then Mastodon is unforenot the biggest pleyer on the Fediverse in terms of user count, public impact, and funding.

Of course, Threads can go fuck themselves. Open source communities have no obligation to play megacorps' games.
