Whereas :activitypub: as a protocol like #eMail and #HTTPS [the latter one it relies upon] is #decentralized, #MultiVendor / #MUltiProvider and thus the only angle that exists is going after #admins, #hosters and those that keep that shit online!

Or something that benefits you as primary user!!!

And I'm not even talking about #OnionShare...
The named ones are very much centralized.and most don't even offer full #SelfHosting at all...

Granted, #ActivityPub as a #MultiVendor / #MultiProvider - #Standard will outlive #Mastodon anyway, just as #HTML & #JavaScript outlived #Mosaic & #Netscape.
At most Mastodon will die out like #ActiveX, #InternetExplorer & #Twitter nowadays and #Windows ["Server"] in the future...

In an ideal world people would not be mere "users" but actually "own tech" in the sense of "owning the network/infrastructure" - at least in part.
And we should always prefer #OpenStandards that are #MultiVendor & #MultiProvider.
That's why #IRC, #XMPP & #eMail outlived #AIM, #ICQ, #DeMail and other proprietary #SingleVendor / #SingleProvider solutions.

Cuz I think an #FLOSS'd #MultiVendor / #MultiProvider alternative to #VRchat and others would be pretty cool.
Bonus points if it just works on #Linux, doesn't require a #VR headset to join in and is a nice sandbox akin to #GarrysMod..

That's why #ICQ, #AIM, #Skype and #Lync are dead, yet #eMail, #IRC, #XMPP & #SIP ain't.

Espechally since a lot of FLOSS projects are not good at #forking where it's necessary (#VScode being a good example, but usually you get shitty bs forks noone asked for like #Devuan)...
In the end, it's vital to avoid toxic #LockIns and use #MultiVendor / #MultiProvider solutions wherever possible.
In fact, I don't mind paying for #CCSS if it's a good product that just works for me.

It's just a decision by #TechCompanies - espechally the #GAFAMs - to purposefully cockblock multiprotocol messengers and refuse to implement #MultiVendor / #MultiProvider - capable #OpenStandards.
But even then there are options like #Owl for #Thunderbird when some #Exchange server refuses to offer #IMAP & #SMTP and there were even addons to support #Lync back in the day on Pidgin...

Whilst some instances may restrict or ban certain functions, that doesn't mean one can't implement it.
In fact, I know some folks do #SelfHosting of #Mastodon due to extensive blocklists by other instances, and they want 100% control.
Only #MultiVendor / #MultiProvider & #FLOSS - based #Standards can provide that.
That's why #OpenStandards don't die out:
Regardless if Telephony, Fax, SMS, eMail, XMPP, IRC, SIP, SSH or OpenVPN.
