As an idealist #activitypub should be enough for all federated apps out there.

The reality: We're building bridges to #bluesky and Pixelfed would like to implement two protocols for one app.

We gained nothing if developers implementing multiple protocols to be federated.

Can we please agree on a decentralised protocol? Thanks!

I mean, arguably the BlueSky protocol is much better, so want to go over there?

There is too much resistance, often based on personal grudges, to adopt the better one.

And so we are stuck with competing standards. Nothing new under the sun with that, though.
