Föderation EN Sa 29.10.2022 18:18:53 Now that the Fediverse and Mastodon are a tiny bit more popular, it'd be easier to explain what we're trying to build at @princeton: a federated open-source food delivery platform. Like Mastodon meets DoorDash. We're even using ActivityPub. The vision: one day each town can run its own instance. Some towns can run multiple instances. Customers will use their preferred mobile client to connect to their nearest/preferred instance. Instances can be local coops of restaurants/couriers. |

As others have mentioned, coop.cycle is worth looking into, although I can’t remember what protocol they’re built on off the top of my head. |
