Matrix is not really integrated into the ActivityPub protocol the same way DMs usually are. I would have to open a separate application to message you on Matrix, I can’t just click on your profile and shoot you a DM (or can I?).

The headline is a lie.

You cannot, two totally different protocols

There you go. So I think adding DMs to ActivityPub would add an extra level of convenience

ActivityPub is only one of a number of federated protocols.
One notably unsuited to instant messaging.

I, too, am often pissed at clickbaity, exaggerated, deliberately ambiguous headlines.
The subtitle makes it clear though: this is about ActivityPub, which has grown into the #1 federation protocol I guess.

It’s not, the demo video actually shows that being one such use case. There’s nothing stopping anyone from writing a chat service in ActivityPub. But this can also apply to statuses, media, all kinds of other stuff.

No it’s not. Matrix isn’t part of the Fediverse. It doesn’t use ActivityPub and there is no interop with any other Fediverse service.
That doesn’t make Matrix bad, it just makes it it’s own thing.

ActivityPub isn’t the only way to be federated. Email is federated. Email isn’t ActivityPub. Matrix is no different.

If I say tacos coming soon, it doesn’t mean I invented tacos, just that there will be new tacos I guess

I heard this is the line for tacos.

Lines long as 2, and they only come three ways. Steak, cilantro, lime, cheese with your choice of sauce… Chicken chipotle mixed Mexican blend cheese, and cilantro lime, rice-cauliflower.
Sides are open as a bar, self serve.

Then I charge you with naming you favorite genre at least. Barbacoa?
umbrella@lemmy.ml 1 month ago
last time i had lamb barbacoa/arab kind of tacos was more than a decade ago and i still cherish that memory for a variety of reasons. not very common here though.
i will usually make chilli tacos for the relative simplicity of making them, when i’m already baking beans anyway.

But we already have tacos.
If you say “Tacos are coming soon”. And we already have tacos. I’d say “What do you mean? Tacos are already here. Do we need more tacos?”

Do you just ask if we need more tacos? The answer is always yes… Where is your insatiable hunger?

If anyone ever asks “Do we need more tacos?” it becomes your responsibility to slap this individual. Because obviously yes. The answer is ALWAYS yes. Always more tacos. Always.
