@evan not sure what's the point of this. The internet is already full of competing implementations of communication protocols. In the fediverse, ActivityPub is the widely adopted solution now, but it was born just 8 years later the Diaspora* federation protocol, which was (and still is) very not compatible. If a new protocol emerges, and its specifics are robust and open, and it fits as a good solution for a scenario that let its adoption grow, it is more a benefit than a problem in my opinion

@leonardo it's a poll. The point is asking what you think.

@evan yeah sorry, i mean, i don't think a poll is the appropriate tool to discuss the question. I find the replies people gave more insightful

@leonardo

So you're saying the poll stimulated interesting conversation?

@evan i'm saying that the question was stimulating, and it would probably be interesting even without a poll attached on it. Please don't try to twist my words just to prove a point, i'm not here to argue and i'm sorry if i gave the opposite impression, it was not my intention.

@leonardo oh, great!

I do a *lot* of polls. I love the thought process they call up in me, and I love the way conversations flow out of them. And I love finding out if my opinion is mainstream or if I'm an outlier.

As a #FuzzyLogic fan and implementer, I try to represent shades of truth as best I can in the limited number of options.

If you don't like polls, that's OK! You can follow other people and have a different conversation somewhere else. My stream isn't the only game in town.
