Can’t even explore /me/groups any longer using the Graph API explorer >.>
They're on to you 😉 -
Agreed! The CMS plugins, eg WordPress's and Drupal's, don't. For even less technical people, we recommend http://micro.blog. Choosing and registering a domain is as easy as choosing a username on Twitter, DNS is automated and invisible (!), webmention support is built in.

Yeah, I love the spirit of WebMentions but the implementation is too high a bar for many (most?) site owners. But maybe a man investment in UX / tooling makes more sense than trying something net new.
Yeah, frankly I don't think an alternative would end up being significantly simpler anyway once you start accounting for the things that are already established in the current ecosystem. There are tools and services now, and libraries, but we always need more! -

I was just noodling on this. I don’t think I’m the right person to build it, but I wonder what an “RSS feed reader + discussion graph” looks like
- subscribe to RSS
- “reply” to posts by blogging on your own site with a meta tag
- readers use the meta tag to thread discussion
This is basically what we're doing with Webmentions. It's an old post, but surprisingly relevant all of a sudden: https://aaronparecki.com/2018/06/30/11/your-first-webmention -

I wish they would just do away with it. 2x a year and everything gets messed up…
We're so close! Almost got rid of it this year, I'm holding out hope that next November will be the last time change. -

it's interesting but feels far too coarse-grained. maybe masto needs something like public groups of related accounts so you can use those as a foothold instead
Absolutely. There's some in-progress work on this, but I haven't been following it too closely. https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/19059
Sadly the state of things is that until Mastodon itself implements this, it's pretty much a stalled idea in the larger Fediverse. -

if mastodon is doing a piss poor job of conveying this then that is not all these people's fault, but the practical impact is that multiple verified twitter users with large audiences are lying about how mastodon works lol
I've always said the local timeline model of Mastodon was a bad idea. It's directly led to this idea of having to join a particular instance because of the community, and all the fallout from that around trusting the instance admin and such. Those concerns should be separate.

I realized that looking at your profile, where you have an @ your own server. This ain’t your grandfather’s social network, is it.
Yup, forget about picking an instance, bring your own! #OwnYourData
