I’ve seen some mention that Lemmy has inter-op with other platforms supporting ActivityPub, but so far I’ve not really seen this in action, or even in how it works.

For me it's more than pretty cool. It's like watching the invention of email.

This is the start of a world where applications are distributed and nobody owns your data. It's the exact opposite of what the big tech mafia has made all their billions on.

All it needs now is prettier clients and the masses will come.
