@maiyannah @bob ActivityPub is a completely different kind of cronyism. It is however blatant cronyism and I spit in the face of the incompetent editors. The decisions they're making will set back consolidation of the open/free web at least five years so their little pet projects can enjoy a brief advantage over everybody else on the short term. Eventually we'll have to toss the whole stinking pile of crap and start over.
