We recently chatted with two of the devs involved with Bonfire. Honestly, they have some really amazing ideas about building a modular Fediverse platform that developers can build on for their own apps.

That looks nice. With the circles and roles… Does it feel similar to Friendica?

And with the modularity/extensibility, which federated platforms does it connect to? Just microblogging? Or can I engage in my favorite Lemmy communities from Bonfire (in the near future)?

Bonfire Classic probably does just do microblogging, but the modularity of the platform would allow someone to build in support for that.

Given that one of the Flavors is Group-centric, it might already be possible.

Another great insight into a fediverse project:).

I haven’t played with bonfire in a while, it looks like things are shaping up nicely.

Never heard of bonfire, I really need some kind of tech news to explain and review those kind of things. I spend few minutes reading some of this “micro-bloging” thing. I’d like to see/understand concrete application. Is this mastodon-like small messages use?

@Kajika Yeah, micro blogging means Mastodon/Twitter-style short status updates.
