This is a Fediverse client that I've been working on. It is structured like an RSS reader, so it doesn't require a server. This means you don't have to worry about defederation, servers going down etc. Let me know what you think.

Cool idea, I'll throw it on the list of clients to check out!

Nice. I had a similar idea bouncing around in my head, but didn't get around to implementing it.

The main hurdle for me was that there's no way to interact with the content (i.e., upvote, boost, comment, post.)
I can't see a way around this without either a private instance, or creating an account on each respective platform - this is a limitation of ActivityPub IMO. I'm curious as to your thoughts?
