Cool. It's been years since ForgeFed came out but it isn't anywhere nearly as federated as Tangled is. What gives?

It’s funny that Bluesky is nowhere nearly as federated as Mastodon btw. (I guess people looking for Twitter replacement don’t really care to run their own PDS (or even know they have the option), while developers like tinkering with that kind of stuff.)

No idea what went wrong with ForgeFed, yeah.

Just read your other comments. Sorry, but I must point out that it would be polite to disclose that you’re working on Tangled, especially when posting takes like this on a competitor technology.

Lack of development. Federation is really complicated, but Forgejo has some foundation now (you can federate stars).

It will likely require some grant money to become usable.
