  • No it doesn’t? There is only one Lemmy implementation

    Beehaw is not very happy with the Lemmy project, and was looking for alternative implementations a few months ago. I remember to have read that they have found something written in Java, and maybe another one, that was basically a separate implementation of Lemmy.

    There is really no such thing as a “platform type” - it’s all ActvityPub under the hood.

    Try to view a Peertube stream on Lemmy, then. Or subscribe to a Mastodon user. There are platform types, and there will be at least until the platform has to implement its own way to interpret and render the content of an other platform that hosts content of a different kind. Even when a platform type implements full AP compatibility, there will often be things a specific platform won’t be able to display.
