It’s been difficult to broach the subject and explain the technical concepts to the average person. I did have some success in first sharing the email comparison, which lead into interoperability.

I’m just curious to hear people’s success stories, if you have any.

    I dont. Its honestly not great. I’d rather that effort went to preserving and repairing the existing tools of the free and open web – the old protocols are extensible. Imagine if we had an RSS client with a “reblog” feature!

    “Federation” adds overhead and honestly creates as many problems as it solves. It’s not a selling point, its a price tag.
