So ... The #Fediverse. I get that the Fediverse is not one thing but many things that use #ActivityPub. Much as the internet is not one thing but many things that use TCP/IP.

Mastodon is still, I think, the largest fraction of the Fediverse but as a Mastodon user, what powers does ActivityPub grant me? Do I magically have a "free account" on a Pixelfed instance? (yes, pretty much everything in the Fediverse is free, but you know what I mean). Does that other service "know" me?

@ve2uwy@mastodon.radio think of your instance as being a window from which you can view the fediverse.

I'm in my own window somewhere else. Might be the window looks different (different software), but we can still talk to each other.

I'm speaking to you from an old-fashioned forum called NodeBB.
