The primary reason I want federation is, if I self host it and let other people join then I ultimately control their data and they are locked in, so it could eventually turn into the same centralized authoritarian bs that notion / todoist has and probably most other proprietary stuff.
Activity pub is the only current answer to centralization I’ve seen so far
I could host but I also want people to be able to use it if they don’t want to, I feel like requiring people to host mastadon or Lemmy would really raise the bar to entry
I run nextcloud in a docker container and its super unstable, and I haven’t found a good way of using it on mobile
I do support those who host stuff but I’d much rather donate to a community run solution like Lemmy.world than do it myself, I know there are people who enjoy doing it and are much better at managing infra than I am.
Edit: also I think Lemmy / mastadon having servers that anyone can join has really lowered the bar to entry and helped drive engagement.
I do currently host the backend
I was trying to find something with sync too, ended up working on building my own, federation doesn’t work yet but tell me what you think. https://github.com/odama626/tasks

I feel personally attacked
Factorio and rimworld
I just switched to it, Had tried jerboa, connect and liftoff and this one is by far my favorite
Oh. Thanks for clearing that up for me
I came up with what I think is a pretty good explanation when trying to explain the beehaw fiasco to a friend last night, here it is copy pastad
Think of it like cell service
You have TMobile, I have Google fi
But we can still talk because they both use 4g
But then Google fi blocked TMobile so I can’t talk to you anymore
And if I want to be able to talk to people on TMobile and Google fi I would have to transfer my service to att
But also, the service is free to setup and run on your own
So instead of 3 or 4 big cell carriers there are thousands
Also, some added info:
Also, with the fediverse, when you transfer service you can take your data with you
Just like you can take your text messages and phone number with you
Fediverse meaning all the apps that work this way, like mastodon and Lemmy (at least those two one have data transfers I think)
Edit: can’t transfer account
