Federated Comments, Views, Likes, Dislikes

[trymeouteh]

It will seem that comment servers are centralized and do not talk to one another. A suggestion would be to add federation which will allow comment servers to interact with each other, allow you to see comments from other servers than your own, to reply to a comment from another server and so on.

Same can go for other data that is not stored on the blockchain such as likes/dislikes, views, etc.

To get an idea of how federation works check out Mastodon, Peertube, Lemmy, Plemora.

Federation of comments is planned for the future but this isn't coming very soon, some work needs to be done first to support this.
