Pivoting that failed venture to WT Social. Quote, "However, as of November 7, 2019, Wales stated that he had just learnt about ActivityPub and was looking into it." It took him four years to get around to it?
Just now taking advantage of us to start yet another social media network. And what does he do first thing? Ask for donations.
the guy famous for his non-profit organisation* asking for donations and losing money on his projects is an extremely weird thing to have an issue with
It’s too late Jimmy. The time to start on a viable Reddit alternative was more than a year ago. People looking for other options have already found them.
Im on it and like the 2.0 look of wiki tribune. They are still figuring out some things but it has great promise. Right now a discussion is going on features like branching. That being said I have not been able to login since the weekend and hit the contact to let them know but I have not gotten a response. Yes I cleared cookies and tried incognito.
With all due respect to Jimmy Wales, his social media efforts have not done well at all. WT.social bombed pretty quickly after it launched in 2019, and a quick look at Trust Cafe shows it woefully behind kbin and lemmy in basic functionality. I don't have high hopes for this one.
I created an account and nothing loaded but the FAQs suggests an interesting concept. It’s almost like a wiki Reddit where people should be able to correct and edit other posts and comments. Not sure how it would work practically but I would be very curious to see what happens
Yeah not sure what's with all the negativity, having more options is always a good thing - even if it sucks and fails eventually there could still be lessons learned from it, or help with the overall adoption and better understanding of AP.
