Mastodon monoculture problem

I’m not quite sure that’s the answer. I see this forum pushing standardization, but the AP has already been standardized and used by the big players. If anyone or group wants to start adding more standardization beyond AP, they’d need to get buy-in from the “big players” (Mastodon, Pleroma, PeerTube, Hubzilla, Friendica, etc) because that’s who has all the fedi users. If these big players don’t agree with any standardization or FEP, it’s all just going to be ignored.
