I think the Fediverse needs easier ways for people to extend it, enhance it, and improve it.
You shouldn't have to write a whole front-end or a whole back-end to do that.

Have you tried a Decentralization Social-Media Network OTHER THAN THE FEDIVERSE?
(Ex: bluesky, farcaster, lens-protocol, nostr, etc?)
If "yes", which ones?

The definition of "Fediverse" seems to be expanding.
"Federated social networks, collectively known as the "fediverse," are emerging as a promising alternative to centralized social media platforms. These networks, such as Mastodon, Threads, and BlueSky, offer a decentralized approach to online interaction."

I pre-ordered a Framework laptop from @npub15f7…m7wr
My 1½ year old daughter broke my previous laptop.
I thought the Framework laptops were interesting, as —
• they are designed so that you can repair them and upgrade them, and
• they are modular, meaning you can easily swap out parts.
It is actually a pretty cool design.
And, Framework laptops support Linux — which is important to me, as I have been using Linux since the year 1996, and am very used to it.

More than 83% of people feel the Fediverse is for everyone.
And less than 17% don't feel that the Fediverse is for everyone.
(Assuming this poll is representative.)

I can't speak for JD, but I have talked to others who are either more into Farcaster or more into nostr (rather than the Fediverse), and I've talked to them about the Fediverse.
I have noticed some commonalities in what they said —
№1:
They believe that a significant part of the Fediverse is anti-commece.
They feel that commerce and payments are important.
№2:
They don't trust the servers controlling their identity and presence.
They feel it should be independent from any server.

I haven't watched it in decades.
I wonder how many of the characters I remember are still there.
I imagine many of them have retired.
I know some of my favorites have even passed away 🙁

There are also quite a number of steps to turn on federation for a Threads account.

That is one of my criticism, too — that identify on the Fediverse is tied to an Internet domain.

If that was successful, then the Threads app should take you back to the 'Account' screen.
But where before 'Fediverse sharing' said 'Off', now it should say 'On'.

Step №4:
The Threads app will require you to scroll down on the 'What is the fediverse' screen.
Once you do that, the inactive button (near the bottom of the screen) that previously said 'Scroll to continue' will become active and say 'Next'.
Tap the 'Next' button to be taken to a 'Turn on fediverse sharing?' screen.

Step №3:
On the Threads app 'Account' screen, tap 'Fediverse sharing' — that will take you to the 'What is the Fediverse' screen.
(Note that the 'Fediverse sharing' option didn't show up for me last time I checked. Today is the first time I saw it there. YMMV.)

I was curious how a Threads account shows up on the Fediverse.
I have seen Threads users on the Fediverse — but I noticed that when I tried looking up many people, they didn't show up.
Later, I saw mention of Threads users having to enable Fediverse.
This is how a Threads user turns on "Fediverse sharing" on their Threads account.
