Observations:

Today #bigtech social media looks & feels like TV to me. Consume whatever each platform owners' algorithms serve.

#ATProto's ecosystem seems focused on reach & broadcasting. #ActivityPub's ecosystem seems focused on interaction. Is this the diff between #SocialMedia Vs #SocialNetworks? Newschool vs Oldschool Internet?

Would be nice if these #protocols become interoperable. Technically solvable, but I wonder are the 'cultures(?)' interoperable as well? Thoughts?
