Anyone remember Farmville?
Facebook did pioneer social media integration with gaming and 3rd party developers/apps
I know they cracked down on 3rd party apps after Cambridge Analytica, but we could replicate something like this using limited oauth scopes so apps couldn't abuse access and otherwise store data they shouldn't be.
It would be pretty cool to be able to leverage ActivityPub in games in a social context, like competing with your friends on the PixelfedFarmVillage game
What u think?
