I was never really into Flipboard but after watching their launch ad from 2010 I’m realizing that their business has always been about trying to jam fediverse functionality into web2. No surprise they’re so all in
Great news
We need to mass defederate immediately
This is a troll account. Look at the acct history.
Lol. Lmao even.
I will never use any instance that federates with instances that federate with instances not run by someone as a hobby. Imagine what could happen if they threaten us to defederate!
Uh, why? They don’t have any history of destroying open standards
Tried to follow the dot_social@flipboard.video channel from Lemmy but it doesn’t show up.
Shouldn’t it contain the « channel » string in the name ? :/
I couldn’t get it work either but figured it was some authorized fetch stuff going on. What do you mean by channel string?
I see. I don’t know much about authorized fetch, I’ll have to investigate a bit (I’m able to follow the linked account from mastodon however).
I was able to find greg_channel@flipboard.video on this instance for example, a wild guess was that maybe lemmy expects peertube « communities » to have the « channel » string in the name but it’s unlikely 😂

They have the co-creator of activity pub explaining everything, it’s pretty great. flipboard.video/w/nLKq9MFfyMdLaqAmHtDUWj

I am going to reply to my other one, I don’t want to do a switch and bait in case you don’t like what I’m going to say:
ActivityPub is planning on having advertising, this isn’t going to be an advertising free space. Towards the end, he talks about it. IMO, they think of the fediverse as like a small town with billboards, retail storefronts, houses, family gatherings, places to date (he mentioned he wanted dating sites to pop up), etc. That you can have one address for all of it and you control the reach. It sounds like, correct me if I’m wrong, it will depend on what instance you’re on, but advertising can and will pop up. I’m not sure how any of that will work in the future, but I did want to mention it to prepare some people. It might be more quiet than pop-ups? I’m not sure.

I would imagine it should be easier to block as long as everything is playing by the same rules.
