It sounds linear... the prophets don't understand that.

I am in session 7 of my rewatch, so this was the first connection I made a well. 🙂

... OK, but seriously, what the fuck is it? Marketingspeke is cool (apparently), I get it, but what does it literally do?

In short, it's a backend/frontend combination that can be shaped using standards compliant web technology, i.e HTMX and JSON, to make it easier in prototyping federated platforms.

Prototyping frontend and backends in tandem is an undertaking to say the least. By creating a framework specifically designed to bridge that gap it will allow developers to more effectively develop, test and publish social media platforms.

...also, they coupled the decoupling... because of course they did. But yeah, if this makes it easier to create federated platforms, I'm all for it.

They’ve set up a pretty detailed whitepaper here.
