In-reply-to » 👋 Hey y'all yarners 🤗 -- @darch and I have been discussing in our Weekly Yarn.social call (still ongoing... come join us! 🙏) about the experimental Yarn.social <-> Activity Pub integration/bridge I've been working on...

Users of Twtxt clients without ActivityPub support won’t want to follow Yarn users because they’ll be engaged in conversations that are inaccessible to standard Twtxt clients. It will only force the split deeper if ActivityPub is an option to be toggled by users or pod operators.
