a fork of activitypub that changes it just enough to not federate and that they then control;) .. I wouldn't be surprised

Been reading all the guides and a few of the protocols this evening. Quite complex, but there are some interesting ideas in there. Curious to see how it evolves.

@astrojuanlu It is big tech, I'm 99,9% sure it will be a data circle jerk dumpster fire.

@Natanox Alternative timeline: it becomes successful, and then the F/LOSS community spends half a decade trying to build an ugly, unusable, "free alternative" to it.

@astrojuanlu @Natanox We already have a successful and usable alternative to it. We’re using it to communicate right now.

@astrojuanlu This. Those big corps currently try to copy what we already achieved, just with their money-making algorithm twist to it. Therefore it will just be a really bad copy of the original.

I wonder who owns the Hayes AT protocol trademarks now.

it’s exciting to see the old days of XMPP happen again.

The AGPL is the only thing we have against #bigtech that stops the last two E’s of eee
