bringing disparate groups together under a single app
Yep, that’s pretty much how I’d like to see it done. Similar to lemmy/piefed, where I can reply to your comment from different server. E.g. Fluxer have something like this in their roadmap, fingers crossed.
My, probably very bad, understanding would be something along the lines of a shared, decentralized API. Almost like a specialized internet that only serves the functions of the apps.
I could probably just google this… but I think I just want to hear a real person explain something this time :P
What do you mean by “solves federation”? As in bringing disparate groups together under a single app?
