| Description | The https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/ is based on advancing the pump.io specification, and is used by various clients (https://github.com/pump-io/pump.io/wiki/Clients) and the identi.ca service. It is essentially a free Twitter. Similar to RSS but for activity feeds rather than news feeds.
Allow any activity feed to be turned into an ActivityPub XML feed. Allow any ActivityPub XML feed to be aggregated into what is shown in an activity block. |
| Steps to reproduce | |
| Additional information | There is also OStatus, and Diaspora which has its own protocol - but ActivityPub has largely been winning the battle, largely due to the success of Mastodon. |
| Funded? | No |
