    That’s pretty cool. Does this mean that if I have my own Nextcloud server, that I’ll have my own fedi ID ready to go? Will it be an ‘app’ within Nextcloud? It’s own instance?

      You already have a Fedi id. It’s @electric_nan . Lemmy is part of the Fediverse.

        So this nextcloud feature will just be a client? Not a server? Sorry if I’m missing something. I do have trouble sometimes grokking the implicatiins of the fediverse.

            So myserver.com/nextcloud is gonna be an activitypub instance, and I can make a user on it like @[email protected] That’s what I’m asking.
