By novel I mean not emulating an existing popular platform, e.g. Lemmy-Reddit, Mastodon-Twitter, etc.
SMTP?
Forgejo is working on federation over ap which I absolutely love! This could grow to be really big!
I’m developing some software to connect ActivityPub and email. It’s been fun and I’ve learned a lot!
I’ll upload a video in a bit!

Thanks, it looks cool! It brings to mind some of the terminal-based connections some have made, if I remember right.
There is ActivityPods which combines activitypub with Solid pods. It offers one profile, one inbox, etc rather than, say two Lemmy accounts and five Mastodons.
It looks okay but the big issue I see is that you’re currently locked in with one pod storage provider. That should change as more appear I suppose.
There’s a lot of misinformation in your post. There’s not single pod provider. It does what it states it does. A platform/client needs to build on top of it. It doesn’t hurt to ask questions. It also doesn’t hurt to state that you don’t understand as opposed to making matter of fact statements and be wrong.
There’s not a single pod provider
Not for Solid, no. The ActivityPods site, however, features a prominent “Create your pod” button that leads to the mypod.store website. I interpret that as a single provider, but feel free to dudesplain to me how I’m wrong.

Oh, okay. So it’s currently a staircase leading nowhere. I see the functionality in that. Thanks again for the valuable “well actually” snark.
I apologise that I didn’t provide a notice that I’m not a qualified expert and didn’t reach out to the developers before writing a f——ng comment on Lemmy.
You don’t need to be qualified but also not a need to spread false information. That’s weird and Twitter behaviour. You could’ve asked questions. You could’ve said “ I may be wrong…” The project is new. There is a single provider due to that reason alone. Once adopted there will be more providers.
There’s actually an exhaustive list of Fediverse software and tools listed on Fediverse.Party.
You can sort by category, protocol, license and code language.
Any in particular you’re fond of but don’t see mentioned as much?
Perhaps BookWyrm for keeping track of the books and such that I read and would want to read.
Socialhome with its tiled display of posts
Bonfire, which is modular, and will be available in many flavours (for Open Science, organisations or simply a social network)
Mobilizon - events and groups.
Gancio - events, published anonymously. Instance can be followed from Fediverse as an account.
Bookwyrm for books
Postmarks - a federated bookmarking website
Funkwhale - for uploading and listening to music
Castopod - Wordpress but for podcasting?
Misskey and its forks - more than Twitter emulation - includes emoji reactions and animated text!Forgejo is working on federation over ap which I absolutely love! This could grow to be really big!
Doesn’t gitea have something like that already (or is working on it)? Or is that different?
They‘re working on it. I think fogejo is just a popular fork of gitea.
Kbin/Mbin is like a hybrid of Reddit and Twitter. You can have both a content aggregation and a microblog system at the same time.
