Yeah totally! In my opinion AP is a really nicely designed protocol that does what it is designed to do very well. I've been playing with indieweb tech (micropub/sub/webmentions etc) to get a similar suite of behaviour but I guess these technologies are even less widely supported than AP and of course there are more moving parts to configure. Essentially, given that [you basically have to be a web developer to use them](https://hyp.is/jrrh0G1rEe2SI2OlykvzjQ/mxb.dev/blog/the-indieweb-for-everyone/), they're probably not gonna see mass adoption outside of webdev/programmer circles I think (maybe "mass adoption" isn't what we want but it'd be nice to see more niche bloggers with other interests getting involved I guess). To be honest I am just curious to see what an AP implementation would look like for my current web setup and how it would compare in terms of a) code complexity and b) performance/compute intensity - might make for a fun weekend project and blog post! 2022-11-26T09:29:33.929864+00:00 https://www.zylstra.org/blog/2022/11/mastodon-timeline-fatigue-while-ap-and-governance-energy/ acct:ravenscroftj@hypothes.is
