That’s it. I’m curious.

What kind of platform do you think the fediverse is lacking?

It could be a brand new platform or a much needed fork of an already existing one.

Would you actively participate in that platform if it existed? If so, in which way?

What, do you think, the incorporation of a platform of that type can add to the growth of the fediverse?

What features should this platform have?

    I’m still new to fediverse, but I haven’t seen anything about instant messaging. Is there a fediverse platform for that?

        Matrix is decentralised but not part of the fediverse as it doesn’t make use of ActivityPub or any other federated protocol. It’s isolated in its own protocol.

      On the Fediverse no, there isn’t. The closest thing would be Matrix (as someone mentioned above). But Matrix, while, decentralised, it’s not truly part of the fediverse.

      So a chat platform is something the fediverse is lacking, but idk how posible it is as federation = less security and less privacy. For example, it wouldn’t be able to add end-to-end encryption.
