  • Mastodon doing changes that are incompatible with the Threadiverse? Must be a day that ends in Y

    • @yessikg I understand that this bug might seem like a deliberately hostile action against the threadverse, but the reality is that ActivityPub is objectively a shithole 🤣 and with every good step forward, there is the risk of stepping on a shit!

      These problems could simply arise from the fact that Mastodon is starting to really work on the management of Activitypub groups. It is therefore appropriate to report any incompatibilities to the Mastodon staff, so that they can correct their roadmap

      • from what i can tell (from the work in progress pull request) mastodons group implementation explicitly does not aim for compatibility with lemmy

        other than that, i agree on activitypub being crap in terms of making interoperability easy

        And re-invent the wheel once more, preferably in a proprietary way that's as incompatible with the rest of the Fediverse as possible but sold to the Mastodon users as the Fediverse gold standard.

        It is therefore appropriate to report any incompatibilities to the Mastodon staff, so that they can claim the other side is broken unless the other side has rock-solid proof that it's actually Mastodon that's doing it wrong.

        FTFY
