I Google for the l and the I when I can’t identify them.

Better solution is a simple, selfhostable ID server that communicates with AP (and others decentralized platforms).
If I need to buy a domain to get my username, I would going to self host my system directly.
Friendica has the RSS feature and it is compatible with most Activity Pub services.
Ya no les creo 🥲
It is peer to peer, no need to register any number nor email and username isn’t mandatory.
Just install, configure and share QR codes to add your contacts.
That’s why this is disgusting.
Data collection doesn’t bother me too much. I’m not going to install their client and all of the behavior trackers that come with it, and my activity pub content is already freely available to query on the internet. If they want it, they already have access to it. Everyone does.
I will be able to follow and see friends’ posts and sports teams’ posts through Mastodon without needing a Meta account nor install their shitty apps.
All I posted via fediverse is public already, traveling into some obscure instances, so I don’t care if Meta uses or shares my public posts.
We need something more simple compatible with Lemmy for hobbyists and for those who don’t want to be all day setting up things every time.
I also was thinking about my own personal instance, because I want to see everything federated and then choose what I don’t want to see, but everybody’s tutorial is different.
Man, I miss the good ol’ times with “upload via FTP, run the “install.ext” file in a browser, setup database credentials and then you have it”.
Fediverse needs single-user applications.
Most likely the new internet. That, where every website was created with money in mind.
Just like the good old times of internet. When every kid had a hobby and installed a forum software into a shared hosting to spend time with others. “If you build it, he/they will come.”
IIRC there is an open source project for forums communities.
It’s called SMF I think.
