I'm not sure what you're asking. There is microG that spoofs Play services to apps. That's been around for several years.
You can also find open source push notification apps on f-droid. Some of those might require a self hosted server, while for example Sunup uses Mozilla's server.
Whether those work on your device probably depends on your ability to root it 🤷
The @user@instance.tld format has become a convention across most if not all ActivityPub platforms. In the end the software will look up https://instance.tld/user anyway.
"Federated" — why? My immediate questions are: What purpose does federation serve in this context? How are song lyrics like Mastodon updates or Peertube videos?
Federation is great for some purposes, but not for all.
Let me stop you right there. No they didn't, and at this rate they never will. What we have is shit "AI", and if your solution to that builds on more shit "AI", you'll end up with a Jurassic Park sized midden.
Everything past that first false premise is best read as satire.
Oh hey, this is just what I was looking for recently! I wanted to recommend PirateBox to another thread on here, but realised it was eol'ed six years back. This is pretty much similar usage, right?
Sure, I was being slightly facetious to make a point about the issues that Peertube solves. IMHO the most valuable part of Youtube is the one Peertube replaces — videos.
The Youtube advertising that people seem to make money off is the part I already do my damnedest to avoid with third party apps and front ends. Peertube solves that as well.
That's fine, mbin didn't exactly provide the url I'd expect. Callinghttps://kbin.earth/m/vinyl@lemmy.world the "original post URL" rather than https://lemmy.world/post/28778258 looks a bit off to me.
According to mbin, that's the original post URL, but does the site need a different format? Because trying another random post from my timeline I get a list of votes: https://programming.dev/post/29327147
You mean worse?
