I think it’s a good thing that we have multiple different decentralized social networking protocols. Having more than one option means people can make choices, which means competition and evolutionary changes from the software to become the better choice, if it is to survive. That being said, technology is built by people within communities, and the cohesion of those networks and other socially contextual elements are often what leads to the success of one technology or another, not necessarily its core utility. #fediverse #bluesky #activitypub #atproto #scitechandsoc
