Which is, umm.. *far* from ideal. In my long screed about the state of the fediverse my main plea was for the ecosystem of fedi devs caring collectively about the open and grassroots standardization processes. That way, after some time you get a standardization process that can 'stand on its own' i.e. make decisions on the best direction for the future, instead of always relying on the elephant in the room for any progress. There would be an incentive to follow this standardization process, which will never arise otherwise, and things remain "everyone together, alone".

@smallcircles@social.coop Fair, and I'll be honest, I haven't read the linked post yet, it's a long one and I want to give it a proper read rather than skim it. I'd like to be more involved in the standardization side of this too. Language is a real hurdle for me there, participating in that kind of discussion in a second language is harder than it looks, so bear with me if I'm slower to engage than I'd like. That said, writing this case up as a FEP seems worth trying, and I might take a shot at it.
