Our <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/solution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>solution</span></a> for portability requires both signed data repositories and <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/DIDs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DIDs</span></a>, neither of which are easy to retrofit into ActivityPub. The migration <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/tools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tools</span></a> for ActivityPub are comparatively limited; they require the original server to provide a redirect and cannot migrate the user's previous data.</p><p>Another major reason is <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/scalability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scalability</span></a>. <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/ActivityPub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActivityPub</span></a> depends heavily on delivering messages between a wide network of small-to-medium sized nodes, which can cause individual <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/nodes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nodes</span></a> to be flooded with traffic and generally struggles to provide global views of <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/activity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>activity</span></a>.”</p><p>Short version, WE CANT CONTROL YOU. </p><p>&lt;<a href="https://atproto.com/guides/faq" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">atproto.com/guides/faq</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>&gt;</p>
