    Again, there is absolutely nothing that prevents this from being implemented in open source fashion. And this is a completely different use case from Fedi. This is basically extending the Unix philosophy to applications and it would put control in the hands of the user in how they want to interact with the app. For example, you could take a bunch of apps and make your own custom UI that leverages their functionality to solve a specific workflow you have. Try stepping out of your demagogy for a minute and actually think about this.

      @yogthos

      Huh?

      “Demagogy is the action or fact of winning support by exciting the emotions of ordinary people rather than by having good or morally right ideas.”

      Are you saying that fedi isn’t a morally good idea?

      I agree that morals should fuel our discussion and not emotion, but I’m sensing strong emotions from you.

      Regardless, I see what you’re saying because I’ve built things like this. I specialize in abstractions in my work-- Strix Music is a prime example of that.

        I’m saying this is a completely different use case from fedi. Perhaps you might be having strong emotions that you’re projecting onto me here?

        I’ve also built this type of software and the benefits are very clear to me.

          @yogthos I’ve enjoyed our discussion, but I don’t appreciate the strong language, the projections, or the claims of others projecting in order to defend your own projections. Thank you for engaging with me, see you around.
