I’m excited about the possibilities of the Fediverse. This is an interesting development, a foundation to promote a decentralized web and promote the use of ActivityPub, a protocol developed by W3C.

This is an interesting interview with Matthias Pfefferle, the creator of the ActivityPub plugin. This plugin helps to integrate a WordPress site with the “Fediverse,” or the decentralized web. There is some discussion about what the Fediverse is and also about what sharing and commenting looks like.

This interview with Matthias Pfefferle helps to explain the fediverse and the ActivityPub plugin which provide more decentralized sharing and communication. There is an audio recording and a text transcript.

The ActivityPub v1 was released. It provides a link between platforms like Mastodon and your website, allowing people to follow authors, have new posts show in followers feeds, and have comments posted back on your posts.
