idk where to really put this (might turn into a blog post later or something). it’s what you might call a “hot take”, certainly a heterodox one to some parts of the broader #fediverse community. this is in response to recent discussion on “what do you want to see from AP/AS2 specs” (in context of wg rechartering) mostly devolving into people complaining about JSON-LD and extensibility, some even about namespacing in general (there was a suggestion to use UUID vocab terms. i’m not joking)

@[email protected] oh, totally. To be clear, the way I imagine it is that to end users, it all looks like a single identity, and which feed/stream is negotiated based on the context you’re using the identity. So, e.g., my main public profile might be “[email protected]”, and if someone tried to follow me on mastodon, they’d get my “short text notes” stream, and if someone else tried to follow me from pixelfed they’d get my “square format insta-like-social photos” stream.
