I think it's a neat idea. I have not read the specification yet, only its description, but I get the feeling it is (like most things in 2022) more complex than it needs to be. It boils down to "show only the most recent post from each of my RSS feeds, in a Pinterest-style layout". Or if you don't prefer RSS, there's an IndieWeb way of doing the same thing. This spec adds in some arbitrary limitations (including the maximum number of people on the network!), and adds a gossip protocol and maybe some other things I'm missing. What I'm missing for sure, though, is why you need a spec for this...
