Any personal favourites that are not so linear that you would like to suggest?

I believe thunderbird has support for Gemini but I haven't tried that out yet, might be wrong.

Its early still. I guess some patience and effort is needed! The journey is home. :)

It's the ActivityPub API (client to server) where clients supposed to interface with so that you could have one client, for all fedi. But turns out server implementations (Lemmy, mastodon etc) find it not so well designed or performant or adequate (or idk what else) so instead they implement their own client APIs, effectively making clients being specific to the server rather than interoperable (one client that could understand all servers). It's reasonable though, it's just .. I thought... that this was already done and established.. but well..

That feels it went seriously bad

I think that for example the search feature has nothing to do with activity pub but it's a feature of each of those software that are using activity pub (Lemmy, mastodon etc). I would guess it operates on those internal structures each of those implementations are using.

I'd take my kids there. Give them markers and crayons. Let them roam..

That's a very inspiring idea. Thanks for that!

This captures exactly my inner feeling regarding the fact that no fedi servers implement the C2S api .. (I just realised)

But really, this is very well done, thanks for sharing

yea my bad, it looks open source :D

Then maybe I got confused sorry. Somebody mentioned it and then the post was saying it's a service I thought it wasn't open. Will check it properly later. Shouldn't have spoke so quickly I guess

However it does not look like it is open source.
