look, now everybody builds some #federated shit, like #pixelfed #mastodon #peertube #pleroma #hubzilla etc.
what we should to instead is to build an #activitypub framework that can be extended with plugins to whatever purpose necessary
one core that contains the federation tidbits and a myriad of plugins to fit any crazy idea, got it?
and let's include federated storage into the whole thing as well
@steckerhalter Interestingly this is what the #scuttlebutt community did. They have created an application platform where you can hook in additional functionality as plugins, enabling you to:
rate books, play chess, play go, chat, share long blog posts, have a microblog like interface (the default), vote, announce gatherings and participations, ...
So yes, I agree such a thing would be really really helpful. Also you will get the one application as your door to the fediverse.
@ckeen didn't know that, thanks
