But not exclusively. That's why there are apps for it.

If the API is HTTP based, then it would be a matter of implementing another non-web-based protocol.

Edit: I'm not saying I would get rid of HTTP. I like RESTful services where they make sense. I'm just emphasizing that the fediverse doesn't have to depend on one single protocol.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with HTTP. Abandoning it would be like eliminating German because it was the language the Nazis used.
