Copying my comment from the cross-post. Anyone here know enough about ActivityPub to know how much work it will be to make it interoperate nicely with Lemmy in addition to Mastodon?

Looks like it’s still a WIP. lemmy.world says that it can’t find the user, but my instance shows his profile:

https://midwest.social/u/dansup@loops.video

If you click on the full username, you get redirect to this page, which is the raw ActivityPub profile:

Based on the mention of toots and mastodon, I’m guessing he’s focusing on that first. Hopefully interoperability with Lemmy will come quickly though. Being able to embed loops as posts would be really nice.

Remember to direct your anger in the right place:

Their failures gave us Trump and empowered nasty people like this. The entire structure needs replacing ground-up with people that aren’t gobbling corporate cock.

That’s a whole 'nother rabbit hole, that eventually leads to this:

Neat! Do you pick one instance to load comments from? I notice that this comment isn’t showing up immediately, so wondering if there’s federation delay or the like.
