Ah! Oh cool, but this would take geolocation. I predict that being a hard sell for lemmings.

But as I type that i realise/remember your post here is primarily an introduction for potential instance operators, not so much a user base. So the geolocation as an ‘issue’ is likely far less important (not forgetting a user can just turn it off anyway).

Oh, I see. Why have you made that choice? I’d understand to keep the subjects towards more community oriented interests, but then, i’m not sure why federation of other community habitats would have any advantages over being separate.

For example, I imagine East Sussex and Alsace-Lorraine wouldn’t have a great degree of things to share between disparate instances like that.

Anyway, i’ve not had a chance to look at your instance yet, so maybe i’ll understand it better when I duck over there for a sticky beak. All sounds very exciting though! Well done!

How is it federation but not Activitypub specifically? I thought that was the only protocol that currently allows for federation. Are there others? Or other ways?
