Please Reddit, just let us use a web browser to access your web site.

Users shouldn’t be forced so aggressively into using an ‘app’ - whether the official one or a 3rd-party app - when mobile web browsers are so very capable.

Ever since learning the phrase "enshittification" [1] from Cory Doctorow it becomes more apparent when it happens around you.

I wonder if there is a "fediverse" for something like forums? I can never get into mastodon because it's not like forums and conversations between people are quite hard if you don't follow them.

Something like that could probably be built on top of the matrix protocol, I'm not aware of anything concrete though.

https://www.discourse.org/ with a discovery mechanism? Would be cool to get Keybase out of Zoom to use for pki identity across various communities. Seems like all the primitives are there, just a lot of grind to do it.

Users->Discovery Mechanism->Topics->Threads with all of the trimmings.

3 different forum softwares are working on ActivityPub support: Discourse (via The Pavilion), Flarum, and nodeBB.

That's cool, will definitely be checking back on it from time to time.
