Bluesky, which uses it, has been opened to federation now, and the standard basically just looks better than ActivityPub. Has anyone heard about a project to make a Lemmy-style “link aggregator” service on it?

    Identity was already solved with Zot aka Nomad, which is part of the Fediverse and easier to implement than ATProto.

    It’s mostly been ignored because it’s just not that important to people, apparently.

      It’s not implemented in mastodon or lemmy though. I’m not saying it can’t be implemented, but it hasn’t been in any platform.

        No, but the software that implements it also implements ActivityPub, so you can get nomadic identity and also still interact with the rest of the Fediverse.

      Nomad is very good at what it does.

        I just wish Hubzilla wasn’t a UX nightmare.
