seems like a common issue. i wish some of these devs would focus on real problems like account portability, content discovery instead of constantly reinventing the wheel
Although he has solved account portability.
maybe on a single platform. we need an AP-based model not some one-off.
Forte had its first official release just yesterday. It only uses ActivityPub for nomadic identity. It no longer supports any protocols that aren't ActivityPub.
Mitra is working on nomadic identity via ActivityPub, too. Guess the hardest part is to make it nomadic in the first place.
Mike's and silverpill's plan is for people to be able to clone and sync the exact same Fediverse identity between Forte and Mitra and Mastodon and Lemmy and Pixelfed and PeerTube and everything else.
FEPs are in place already. Might not be long until cloning between Mitra and Forte works. Once that's achieved, the technology is proven and therefore up for grabs for everyone.
At that point, the ball will be in the hands of the other Fediverse devs. Especially Gargron will have to swallow his pride and adopt technology from the guy who tried hard to argue him into implementing full HTML rendering support on Mastodon, something he rejected because text formatting (allegedly) has no place in purist, old-skool, original-gangsta microblogging.
