No, I just tend to break up my thoughts into different segments and structures, because otherwise the whole thing feels like I'm just rambling about a bunch of stuff.

You know, you're not the first person to say that about something I wrote. Neither of us use general AI, and I make a point to avoid all of those tools to do things "the old fashioned way".

It could be due to me being neurodivergent, or it could be that a certain kind of writing got slurped up by AI and that's the default style now. I don't know.

I work hard on everything I write.

So, I used messaging here in the broad sense. One possible application for it is instant messaging, which there are ActivityPub implementations out there doing that. But it can also be used for statuses or pretty much anything else that gets federated.

It's not, the demo video actually shows that being one such use case. There's nothing stopping anyone from writing a chat service in ActivityPub. But this can also apply to statuses, media, all kinds of other stuff.

Silverpill might not like me making this comparison, but its form and function are shockingly similar to OnlyFans.

OpenCollective is a pretty solid open source contender in my experience. It's not perfect, but it's definitely workable.

PeerTube's support button is, at best, a lightbox that holds a text string. It's fine for highlighting links, but you still kind of have to dance around with having an account in another system to make the payment.
