Do you count Bluesky as the Fediverse? Why? @asklemmy@lemmy.ml @asklemmy@lemmy.world #Fediverse #AskFediverse #Question
minus-squareSamantha Xavia@bikersgo.socialOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 days agoWhat counts as apart of the Fediverse then? Is it the protocol of ActivityPub or that it connects all together? As there is a bridge for Bluesky.
minus-squareTabbsTheBat@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 days agoBasically yes… I mean… you could just look it up and see the sources say the same thing about activitypub
minus-squareblack0ut@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 days agoThe fact that it needs a bridge is what makes it not federated. Federation allows for interconnection without bridges, because everything talks the same protocol. You can bridge Discord to Matrix, and that doesn’t mean Discord is federated.
