Very interesting article, thanks a lot for sharing. I've often seen people talk about ActivityPub on Mastodon but didn't know what it was. However, as far as I understood it, I don't think ActivityPub can address most of the issues I am concerned about. Things like search, verification, DMs, moderation. And as the article says you need a killer app with great UI and feature set. Mastodon isn't it by a mile. Maybe it can be in principle but it is certainly not moving fast enough to be that in practice. In the meantime private competitors like BlueSky can and do move quickly. and if they capture the audience I don’t think they’ll have any incentive to play nice with fediverse. That would be a shame but it seems to me that’s where things are heading.
