Hopefully it's heading for that direction too.

I cant really complain now after seeing all of your valid points.

@OpenStars@piefed.social @fediverse@lemmy.world if you told me this about 2 minutes ago, i probably wouldve disagreed with you. But, seeing yalls responses, i realise that im asking for a ginormous favour from all developers. Id just make my own software instead of complaining about all of the devs hard word to keep everything interconnected whilst not overwhelming the users with every feature under the sun.

You have proved yourself to be right. The mere fact that every platform is interconnected means that we are actually... connected!

Its not perfect, but thats not a reason for me to just take a back seat and watch and complain.

Id really like to see this grow to become a great community. To make projects like this for the sheer fun and goodness of it, and not expecting money back. Now thats something to applaud for!

@gedaliyah@lemmy.world honestly, yall are amazing, ive learnt so much from you all. Ill just build my own platform instead of being lazy and complaining about it...

@rglullis@communick.news you are right. I am sorry if i may EXPECT certain things to just work, just recently shifted from Twitter (stopped using twitter in 2023, now on Misskey since 2025). To be honest, i was realy confused with what ActivityPub was in the first place.

But i am glad i joined the fediverse. Today I Learnt more about the fediverse. A chaotic but really fun universe of interconnected planets.

I realise that i am asking for everyone to adapt to my needs, and not that i adapt to the ecosystem.

But now i try to learn... thank you for this informational conversation. It's still amazes me how platforms scripted in different languages are able to connect with each other.

My post is invalidated. It's now retitled to " why we need to reform our way of thinking about social media."

Still, that wont stop me from making a PeerTube+Lemmy+Misskey platform... ​:ablobcatangel:​

I may not have conveyed my point clearly.

If it was merely a Misskey problem, i wouldnt have made this post, so ill list my likes and problems one by one, i may have been vague with communication:

My likes:

1. Interconnected: i dont need to elaborate too much. One account, to all platforms...
2. Opensource: also not much elaboration.
3. Protocol centric, not platform centric...

My ONLY dislike:

1. Lack of definite communication: Misskey may be my favourite, but it sucks the most when it comes to federating with other instances. There is no upvote system, no favourites system, no saved posts system. I can only reply and send reactions, and those reactions may not even federate properly. Same when i was using Mastodon. There was no downvote system, crosspost, etc. The worst in my opinion is the fact that devs are trying their best to federate with each other but throught different ways. My point is, this discrepancy between platforms calls for standardized system.

I hope i have explained well enough. I apologise if i wasnt clear with this earlier... any solutions to the aforementioned problem?

@rglullis@communick.news Lemmy -> Misskey works fine. It's Misskey -> Lemmy which is a bit of a problem, because Lemmy communities and Misskey channels are two different things. Misskey channels dont even federate server-to-server.

I respect the developer's choices, but if Misskey is going to implement something like channels, might as well federate them too...

I apologise if i havent been clear with the whole "federating" communities, hope this clears things up...

@fediverse@lemmy.world

@Die4Ever@retrolemmy.com i just checked your full conversation on your instance (misskey doesnt support edited posts)
Misskey does support following the community, its just not done elegantly. All replies from the community show up on my home page, which isnt great.

For now, ill stick with misskey till i find a worthy contender, just love msky reactions too much (too goofy lol, with sfx and all)

@fediverse@lemmy.world

@Die4Ever@retrolemmy.com a lot of people do this... its just sad, coz they can make a fuss all about their tool and still use it. Its sheer hypocrisy @fediverse@lemmy.world

@Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com @melroy@kbin.melroy.org @BentiGorlich@gehirneimer.de thanks for the suggestions... however we choose to communicate, in the end, it's the fediverse... :) @fediverse@lemmy.world

@Die4Ever@retrolemmy.com will definately check out mbin too. Ill get a computer soon, and then ill start contributing to mbin and hopefully they see my plea for help lol... i love how different people from different platforms get along in the fediverse, coz on Twitter it was so different... and that was before Musk, so i must imagine it must have gotten worse... @fediverse@lemmy.world

@fediverse@lemmy.world edit (since Misskey doesnt have an edit button): yk what, yall make good points. Ill just make my own software, combining Peertube+Lemmy+Misskey into one instance, maybs even Matrix... and if i cant, just not bother complaining then. Coz i understand not all devs have the same vision... i respect that, but till then, keep growing Fediverse, love yall regardless...

@Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com thanks, ill definately look into that. Although im pretty comfortable with my own instance, and you all make good points imo. Guess ill just stick to mentioning @fediverse@lemmy.world
