Oh, Zot! Nomadic Identity is Coming to ActivityPub (wedistribute.org)

When Lemmy was making waves last year when Reddit pulled an “enshittification” of the platform. One of the first things I noticed was how terrible the experience was when trying to navigate to other Lemmy instances.

Hopefully this will help bridge the gap when it becomes generally available.

Why do you need so much info on Mike? Can't you just evaluate his statements/work on its own merit? The whole point of open source, federated platforms is that you don't have to trust him. If he decides to enshittify it, you can just go with a fork or another instance. A nomadic identity isn't a centralized alternative to the fediverse, it's just a way of bringing some of the features of a centralized identity to a decentralized one (at least, that's the way I interpreted the article).
