A libre networking project that's designed to bridge protocol spaces together announced its progress and intentions, and Mastodon users freaked out.

Bridgy Fed made a splash earlier this week by announcing its latest progress in connecting the Fediverse to Bluesky and Nostr. Sadly, not everyone was welcoming.

    That’s what the ActivityPub protocol provides a platform for.

    That’s ridiculous. ActivityPub is a standard to allow communication between different systems. What you are saying is that people should only be allowed to speak English if they want to be part of the British Empire and be subjects to the crown.

        No user cares about the language an application is written in, only about its features.

        Also, should Python developers not be allowed to use Rust libraries through bindings? What a weird and broken analogy.

          To be honest, I don’t know enough about either Rust or Python to continue with this analogy 😂
