   @atomicpoet I’m following @fediversenews already. That’s cool. That’s a good example of what ActivityPub can do. I think micro servers that just publish would be very useful, like public transit and severe weather updates. I could follow relevant zip codes. I’d like to run such services which consume public data and share on ActivityPub.

     @brennansv @lacouvee A good example is @fediversenews, which is a Friendica group. It was tagged at the beginning of this thread.

     Another example is blender_reels@video.blender.org, which is an account on a PeerTube server. You can follow that account and watch videos that it posts.

     @lacouvee Let's put it this way, Janis.

     Every WordPress blog can potentially be subscribed and read directly through Mastodon. You can comment directly to that blog through Mastodon. And whoever is using that WordPress blog can reply back to you.

     Better yet, someone can read your Mastodon posts on WordPress.

     Is that blowing your mind yet?

     @atomicpoet @lacouvee What service that supports ActivityPub but not Mastodon can I follow right now from a Mastodon client? I don’t know if I’ve done this yet. I’m still new to it.

     @atomicpoet although I truly don't understand this - it sounds like a very cool development. Maybe we will get back to the idea of decentralized social media - somewhere I remember hearing/reading about the notion that the human cortex is only wired to truly be able to manage 250 close personal connections. If that is true - this makes more and more sense, conversations with a small group of people.

     ?BREAKING NEWS!?

     Automattic, the company behind WordPress, is now co-authoring the ActivityPub plugin for WordPress.

     The intent is to make WordPress a "first party Fediverse member" on par with Mastodon, Pleroma, and Pixelfed.

     WordPress already powers 43% of all websites—and every one is a potential Fediverse server.

     Automattic employee @kraft just confirmed this.
