There's a myth on the #Fediverse that you can build different kinds of apps on #ActivityPub than #Mastodon.
It's not entirely untrue; it's just a protocol, you can implement all, or none of it. Free country.
But if you want to get #federated you have to be compatible with Mastodon. All the cool features in the world (#misskey) won't matter if nobody can see them.
The generic primitive of AP is the Activity; that's all. You can extend it, but you can't make everyone else do so.
