Even though I'm on here, I honestly lurk most of the time and don't fully understand the activitypub vs at protocol war. This was a great explainer that will reach a lot of people. Really appreciate a lot of David's takes. I hope David and others at MKBHD become aware of and talk about Lemmy soon too.

It’s an interesting video and having read the comments there are a few things worth noting:

  1. from a layman’s perspective I understand the focus on threads, for most like it or not it’s the simplest entry point into the Fediverse
  2. its important that this type of podcast is talking about this subject at this time
  3. sure it’s dumbed down, we are not the audience

It’s no surprise either it was released as Meta did some big fediverse PR yesterday…

What’s important right now is getting bums on seats, keeping activitypub momentum moving forward.

Interesting video, hope it spawns more curiosity
