Some good news on this FOSS alt to discord. Moving along well but still in beta and testing of Mobile versions. Still nice that the work is pushing along and might not be a spur of the moment fad

    For now the priority is getting the app a stable build across mobile and PC. Once that is done then I suspect they will work on a Federation system.

        That’s where bridges come in I believe, something that let’s sites on two different standards to communicate with one another.

          Speaking a protocol natively always works far better. Also, bridges generally have the issue that they have to break end to end encryption in order to work.

          They are also error prone and more of a workaround than a real solution.

            As I said priority one is getting the App to being a stable build. Federation, be it using a protocol that exists or making a new one, is likely something the Debs are leaving for after they have a functioning application

              Which is the wrong way round. First you have to think about how you want things to be interoperable, then you build them. They will have a frustrating time and I wouldn’t be suprised if they completely drop it from their roadmap at some point.

                Would they?

                No seriously it would just seem odd if Fluxer got on the Activity Pub (as an example) only for the app to not really be a working communication platform and riddled with bugs.
