Doctor and Patient in the Fediverse of Madness
summary
Claims mass migration: over 50% migration of scientists from X/Twitter to Mastodon, with a global study saying around 40% of scientists face harassment. Compares fediverse protocols (ActivityPub, Matrix, OStatus) and user counts (BlueSky ~32M vs Mastodon <10M). Notes Germany’s gematik selects Matrix TI‑Messenger as the national e‑health instant messaging standard, describes a Matrix-based e‑health service for the JVM using Java and Kotlin that is built but the live demo is omitted for time.
