ActivityPub is more of a zombie project than ATProtocol at this point. AP has plenty of problems this fresh account made to disparage omits.

I'm looking forward to a new protocol that combines the best of what we have with a robust permission system from the start.

Seems you wanted to respond to the OP? I was mainly inquiring about what's AS2.

Isn't that a problem with moderation instead? If ATProto becomes decentralized someday, it'll have the same issue

ATProto actually has a very good moderation design, user choice, anyone can label, and composable. Feeds are similarly well designed for federation.

yes

The moderation tools depend on the implementation of AP, but what I meant is that you depend on each instance's moderation/moderators to be effective at combating spam (and more).

A problem that ATProto will face once/if they really do get decentralized. If some instances are badly moderated, you will suffer the same as with AP
