Ah, Meta is thinking about adding advertising to the #Fediverse ...

"You could imagine an extension to the protocol eventually — of saying like, ‘I want to support micropayments,’ or … like, ‘hey, feel free to show me ads'"

How unexpected - not.

@ascherbaum nothing wrong with adding these things to the protocol. Doesn’t mean any implementation of that protocol has to implement them

@rachel Adding protocol extras without broad consent in the community leads to the situation which basically rendered XMPP a widespread mess of implementations, including some big companies doing their own thing with the protocol. We've been there before.

@ascherbaum There are things between heaven and earth that are chiselled in titanium.
