   Roughly 1/3 of all sites on the Internet just entered the fediverse. You can’t stop an idea whose time has come. https://techcrunch.com/2023/10/11/wordpress-com-blogs-can-now-be-followed-on-mastodon-and-other-federated-platforms/

     @jeff @boud @mori @anildash is this integration based on the shit-ass plugin that doesn't support anything but Mastodon servers?

     @boud @mori @anildash @pfefferle.wordpress.com@pfefferle.wordpress.com i am worried about the implications of having millions of servers potentially doing a GET request to a potentially arbitrary URL, e.g. a very popular wordpress makes a post that has something that is snarfed by everyone following it. instant GET flood from potentially hundreds of thousands of unique installs.

     @mori @anildash

     It took several steps of following URLs to find the plugin's licence. I was a bit worried given all the blabla about it being "acquired" by Automattic. It is [1][2] free software, covered by the Expat licence [3].

     Definitely good news! :)

     So it can be freely: 0 used, 1 modified, 2 redistributed and 3 redistributed in a modified form.

     [2] https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/activitypub/trunk/LICENSE

     @anildash This is nice. Whenever I read comments on a website now I think, geeze, these should be run using fediverse and I can just use Masto account to leave a comment. Yeah I know I could sign up to the website, but I gave up doing that years ago.

     @tvler @cdevroe this works if you install the WebFinger plugin! The built in version is as simple as possible for now.

     @cdevroe @pfefferle I think the most robust way to do it would be to allow this webfinger pattern to work: https://pfefferle.org/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:https://pfefferle.org , where the account resource is a link to an activitypub profile

     Right now, WP blogs only respond to https://pfefferle.org/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:pfefferle.org@pfefferle.org , where the account resource is the username@domain scheme

     Other platforms such as mastodon correctly respond to both webfinger requests, which is how streetpass works! i'm happy to open up a PR this week! both requests are spec-compliant btw

     @tvler 🙌

     @pfefferle Is there an HTML tag added to WordPress blogs that have the ActivityPub Plugin enabled that would allow Tyler's extensions to notify users? I looked through your blog's source but none stand out to me.

     @cdevroe right I see now, so a little different use case. I think that’s a cool idea!

     @cdevroe @ChrisPirillo how could StreetPass be more akin to the original UX of the RSS icon? Maybe by showing the current page’s linked profiles at the top of the list, regardless of if you’ve seen it already?

     @tvler @ChrisPirillo I think if a webpage is ActivityPub-enabled (e.g. a WordPress.com blog with the ActivityPub plugin enabled) Street Pass could somehow show that. It wouldn't link to an account because the webpage itself is the account. Might be a nice addition to Street Pass.

     ActivityPub already has an icon for better or worse.

     @ChrisPirillo @anildash

     StreetPass by @tvler may fill in that gap for now. But perhaps we need something akin to the RSS icon of yore.

     @anildash ...I'm looking for some kind of clean browser extension and/or more page-level visible option to click-and-follow, now. Support won't be obvious.

     @pfefferle @cdevroe This is cool thank you! Would you be okay with me opening up a PR to get this webfinger scheme to work? https://notiz.blog/.well-known/webfinger?resource=https://notiz.blog (this scheme is already supported by mastodon)

     it would return the same data as https://notiz.blog/.well-known/webfinger?resource=notiz.blog@notiz.blog

     @Moon @boud @mori @anildash @jeff you forgot the best part: people's blogs being subject to #fediblock because the internet equivalent of an HOA Karen decided they know what's best for you and what blogs you should and should not be allowed to comment on
