they (ATProto - the protocol used on Blueasky) are working towards it with people from outside and pitching projects/ideas towards that in ATProto conferences

ATProto and ActivityPub “done right” might actually converge to the same thing

i wouldn't expect it to happen anytime soon though its nice there are Fediverse platforms like Friendica that can communicate with BlueSky meanwhile

now in regard to Meredith Whittaker i couldnt find nor ever heard of such thing being said

Oh, thanks. That is very good news.

In regards to Meredith Whittaker and Signal... If I remember correctly when I read that rumour, it was in regards of the push that the EU has going on for Message Apps to open their protocols.

Delta Chat for example, already has open protocols with emails. But there's no allies joining in on the message app front.

As one would expect, Meta is fighting this with WhatsApp and Messenger. The fact they don't connect both of these, with them being within the same company tells us all.

But I haven't been following this as closely as I probably should. So don't know if that Signal rumour is remotely true.

The EU push for it is true though. But if they'll manage to enforce it is another conversation entirely.
