Would love to see them come to the fediverse, even if it was just something as simple as a bot. Their site is all RSSed up though. Can sub to the whole site here: https://aftermath.site/feed

Or just the Video Games category here: https://aftermath.site/category/video-games/feed

According to numbers shown on https://fedidb.org it basically already has. Monthly Active Users is only about 17% of total users.

This kind of retention rate is not uncommon in free social services.

Spiritfarer. Probably one of the most touching games I've ever played. What Remains of Edith Finch. Stardew Valley. Firewatch.

Nah the last thing these shows need are a bunch of armchair experts chipping in.

Unfortunately it seems like development on Tumblr has been reduced to a skeleton crew. I wouldn't hold my breath for ActivityPub integration on that front now.

Yeah I'm trying to look at this and understand almost anything from this and it's actually impossible.

That's true and fair.

Looks interesting, but of course we all want to see more.

The path forward I think would be some sort of a bridge service. Think of it as a translation layer that could take in updates from both ActivityPub and AT, and present to the opposing side like it were native. Something similar was developed for nostr to communicate with the fediverse, and it seems at least feasible in this case as well.

I think there may be some room for improvement on messaging there.

It's a sandbox. My prediction is that it could be fun for up to an hour.

Repealing Section 230 would actually have the opposite effect, and lead to less moderation as it would incentivize not knowing about the content in the first place.

Some good titles in this batch. Started playing Lightyear Frontier last night.

I would like to see some sort of bridge built to allow communication between AT protocol services and ActivityPub protocol services.

... I feel like you can do this with the Mastodon admin already. Preferences > Administration > Custom Emojis. Enter in the domain whose emojis you want to see / get, search. Click the "select all" checkbox at the top, copy. If there are multiple pages, go to the additional pages.

Seems like there is a lot of people in this thread that are confused about BlueSky federating even means. BlueSky's plans for federation have nothing to do with the fediverse. It's about enabling federation with other AT protocol services, including self-hosting a personal data server.

Here is an explainer on architecture. It might be helpful. https://blueskyweb.xyz/blog/5-5-2023-federation-architecture

I feel the need to be pedantic here: the first amendment has nothing to do with speech on private platforms.

Played Just over the weekend. Good, short game.

Nothing actually. Faircamp is not actually inherently related to the fediverse.

Not how it works. Also your use of "becomes a publisher" suggests to me that you are misinformed - as so many people are - that there is some sort of a publisher vs platform distinction in Section 230. There is not.

This is frankly bizarre. I don't understand how you can even write that and reasonably think that the platform hosting the hypothetical defamation should have any liability there. Like this is actually a braindead take.
