Other #Fediverse platforms should just go ahead and make @evan 's vision come true.

--- Quoting the article:

He puts the success of Mastodon down to its “very pragmatic and user-focused development team,” led by Eugen Rochko.

That said, Prodromou thinks that Mastodon isn’t using the full capabilities of the protocols he helped define.

Currently, the main API for Mastodon is its custom API, which Prodromou thinks limits the creativity for developers wanting to build in the fediverse.

“Taking the fediverse to that next level and seeing the implementation of a standard client API would mean a lot to me,” he said, “because it would unlock a lot of that creativity in terms of the content that we see on the network.”
