    ActivityPub for WordPress

    • The world of systems that work with ActivityPub is referred to as the Fediverse. Mastodon is a Twitter-like interface built upon this platform. There is also Pixelfed, an Instagram-like platform, and PeerTube, a YouTube-like platform. Anybody can create new platforms that integrate with the rest of the Fediverse, just by implementing the ActivityPub protocol. There is even a WordPress ActivityPub plugin so that any WordPress blog can be followed by others on the Fediverse.

  • PixelFed

    Mastodon instances list

    • You can go to the Mastodon website or instances.social to browse servers. You could choose one that is somewhat relevant to your interests or location, or you could choose one that is totally generic. Or just choose one that has a name that you like. Like email, it will be part of your address.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
