Title: Leaving ActivityPub
Authors: Aoi Koizumi <novaburst@envs.net>
Topics: Internet
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?"

I'll spare three accounts from the whole thing, everything else will be
deleted. I might figure out something for those three, maybe...

Ended up with two, hah. At least for all I care they work on webkitgtk
browsers so they _shouldn't_ be an issue.
