[–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 97 points 2 years ago (5 children) Yeah. I love Signal but it doesn't belong in that list. Dansup (creator of loops and pixelfed) is apparently working on "Sup" that will be a decentralized alternative to whatsapp. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 10 child comments replies: [–] punkisundead@slrpnk.net 70 points 2 years ago (1 child) To me this person sounds like they have too many big projects at once. I wish them success tho permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 36 points 2 years ago (1 child) Yeah.. I'm bit afraid of "kbin Ernest Effect" (not sure what a proper term is) where personal issues pile up and the sole head developer just disappears. Haven't followed dansup much but from what I understand he is much more open to pull requests and listening to the community, but time will tell. Right now I appreciate and love his effort, giving, and the impact on fediverse he is brining. The kickstarter was a good idea. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ApollosArrow@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Given that I’ve waited 3 weeks to join his smaller instance of pixelfed.art, I can tell things are already piling up.

They will have their hands more than full with Pixelfed's new popularity and maybe Loops. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Lazycog@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 years ago Oh! didn't know that, I thought activitypub can't be used for secure messaging. Lol really hope its XMPP! Yeah I didn't take it that seriously when it was announced right now.
