Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much more with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome 🀟😁

This is my first open source project, apart from tiny bits of code that no one ever paid any attention to. Maybe I don’t know how to do open source properly, maybe I made a mistake here. Let’s find out.

I feel you've hit this on the head directly.

We've attempted polite communications through normal channels, and were accused of toxicity. We aren't blocking Rimu or any of the main contributors from contacting us. I don't care about the code.

At this point, several of us are being judged 100% on association... since we have been seen being friendly with those that Rimu has deemed Toxic, we are immediately excluded and have slander lobbied at us from over a .social wall (and the piefed blog especially). We are not given chance to correct errors. We are not given a direct way to make our replies (affected servers are unable to show replies to .social threads within those walls).

This is by Rimu's design, and has caught many innocent people under the umbrella he calls toxic.

I care not how he wants to run his server, but using it to outright slander others is immature at best, and directly harmful to the fantasy Perfect Fedi he claims to adhere to.

Mia left the soft fork in place on Codeberg, and I delayed aspects of moving A.N over to PyLova. I wanted to have a chance to mend communications initially. PR between the projects is still not only possible but I expect to happen, for the betterment of Fedi overall. There is an accepted way. GIT and Codeberg have ways that are the typical for forks and moving code in a sane and appropriate way. Intentionally going outside of these paths either paints Rimu as incompetent with the basic tooling required, or outright disingenuous about motive.

There's an old saying about absolute power... perhaps his walled garden has made him feel too powerful for his own good.
