"the Fediverse is all interoperable & interconnected!" - me needing multiple apps & multiple accounts to view & post to the micro-blogs, the long form blogs, the link aggregators, event sharers, and the media sharers - ummm not really.
The Fedi marketers need to stop misleading folks, platform interconnectedness for lots of stuff is either just starting in small ways or is nonexistent, and is subject to the fact that no single app is designed to handle all paradigms, and if it did try to handle lots of them, would be an enormously complicated and heavyweight piece of software (e.g. witness the public Friendica instance I was on getting shutdown due to the ongoing costs & maintenance time for it being too high for the instance owner to want to continue it; as well as witness how cluttered & clunky some of its interface is).
That said, I am really digging Wafrn, in that it unifies both the Fediverse micro-blogs along with Bluesky, and it also allows out of the box to make long posts with markdown formatting too. Good stuff. #socialmedia #mastodon #activitypub #fediverse #interoperable #interconnected #marketinglies #wafrn
