+# Leaving ActivityPub
+Authors: Aoi Koizumi <novaburst@envs.net>
+Date: 2022 02 19
+
+I've grown tired of all this Fediverse/ActivityPub fad for mainly
+technical reasons, the obvious one being the obvious fact that after
+all, they are clones of the corporate social media, as their appearance
+suggests, and because they're difficult to self-host in any way, due to
+the abuse of web technologies, for example, many JavaScript frameworks,
+or Python, or whatever. It's literal madness, even the available clients
+and alternative frontends abuse of that, which means, why in the name of
+hell even bother with all this?
+I've chose better and saner alternatives to Fediverse, in most ways
+possible, like E-mail, IRC, RSS feeds, Yarn.social (twtxt), and XMPP,
+which satisfy my needs in some way or another, and do their job well.
+
+I'll finish this post with this sentence: "Yes, my microblog is just a
+darn text file on some server on the Internet, and what about it?"
