I just thought this was cool and wanted to share it here. It looks like there's an instance up now, go add stuff to it if you can!

This rules, can't wait to see how federation works!! It seems like each project shows up in the fediverse as an actor? Like for example this project: @3dc33whtlsnx@3dprint.social

I kind of naively thought they'd show up as posts or something. Maybe what this means is, all the subcontent of the project show up as posts instead? If so, that seems pretty neat! Like potentially the 3d files themselves federate out as posts?

Not sure why I'm wildly speculating when all this is surely documented somewhere lol

But speculating without reading documentation is so fun! I love doing that, then reading the docs and realising how wrong and backwards my ideas were.
