What's the benefit of this? I thought content on the fediverse was public by nature.
Idk. Its fediverse, let's make everything OpenSource and decentralized.
✅ reddit ✅ twitter ✅ facebook ✅ Instagram ❌ eBay ❌ amazon ❌ WhatsApp
I don't understand how most of this works I suppose, but I remember reading one of the problems with DMs in Mastodon and Lemmy is that they aren't actually private due to the way federation works, so I wonder how encryption is going to work in Sup.
What’s the federated versions of Facebook and Instagram?
Friendica and Pixelfed, respectively.
and Hubzilla
We have Matrix for WhatsApp. It's quite mature.
