There's a lot of energy on the #Fediverse right now to discuss/find a #Federated alternative to #Discord using #ActivityPub.

@strypey suggested that I put this out there to anyone who's thinking about it. We could probably rebuild most of Discord's features as an #Emissary inbox without doing a lot of back end code.

I'm too swamped to start on this right now. But if you're a great HTML+CSS designer, I'm able to give some time to a team who wants to take this on.

#Roomy currently based on AT Proto but looking to add #ActivityPub soon

Hey, this is pretty interesting. Thanks for sharing!

That would be really cool if they can support Bluesky and ActivityPub at the same time.

The article on the website makes it seem like you’re only signing in with your ActivityPub identity though?

Otherwise, “Fediverse” client support is limited to the Mastodon API, or oft-unimplememted C2S API.

I’ll definitely keep my eyes on this one!

@strypey @activitypods Roomy implements its own storage. #ATProto is only really used as an identity / sign-in layer.
