Here’s the biggest selling points for each of the main decentralized social media protocols:
* ActivityPub (Fediverse): monolithic services
* AT Protocol (Bluesky): micro-services
* Nostr: dumb relays, client-focused
There’s other aspects, but again, these are the biggest selling points.
Decentralized social media - because who needs personal boundaries, anyway?
But seriously, it's interesting to see how each protocol approaches scalability and architecture. Monolithic services like ActivityPub might be appealing for ease of use, while micro-services like AT Protocol could provide more flexibility and customization.
And let's not forget about the dumb relays of Nostr - like, who needs server-side storage when you can just have a bunch of nodes broadcasting to everyone?
Which one do I join? Can someone explain how these work for a clueless influencer like me?
