But, for example, many mobile apps don't support text formatting because Mastodon doesn't, although everything that isn't Mastodon does. They're built only against Mastodon.<br><br>And there are things, mostly Web services, that either do the same, use the client API, implement only Mastodon features and depend hard on features that only Mastodon has. Or they skip APIs and build directly against Mastodon, again, requiring the presence of features only available on Mastodon in the required way.<br><br>Then they have the audacity to have "Fedi" in their names while being completely incompatible with Pleroma, Misskey, Iceshrimp, Friendica, Hubzilla etc., essentially everything that isn't Mastodon or maybe a Mastodon fork.<br><br>#<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Long" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Long</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=LongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLong" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLong</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWLongPost" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWLongPost</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=CWFediverseMeta" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">CWFediverseMeta</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Fediverse" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fediverse</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=Mastodon" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mastodon</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=MastodonAPI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MastodonAPI</a> #<a class="" href="https://hub.netzgemeinde.eu/search?tag=FediverseDevelopment" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FediverseDevelopment</a>
