minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•6 months agoCan you really call Matrix “fediverse software” if it doesn’t implement ActivityPub and therefore doesn’t federate with the majority of Fediverse instances?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•6 months agoFediverse is more than ActivityPub, it’s also Matrix, Nostr, Bluesky
minus-squareMentalEdgelinkfedilink2•edit-26 months agoThe fediverse is an umbrella term. I don’t know that anyone thinks of it as limited to activitypub. Matrix might not interact with activitypub platforms, but it’s definitely federated, and definitely contains a universe of content. I’ve found a couple active “spaces” (the equivalent of discord servers, a collection of users and rooms, not just one group chat) that are great. I access all that from my own instance, thanks to federation.
