ActivityPub is already being used as a protocol for decentralized social networks in microblogging platforms such as Mastodon and has now been adopted as the official W3C standard by the Social Web Working Group of the World Wide Web Consortium, as Christopher Lemmer Webber informs in a guest article of the Free Software Foundation (FSF). As the founder of the media sharing software GNU MediaGoblin, Webber is also one of the initiators behind ActivityPub, which aims to create an overarching communication layer for the most diverse social network applications.

As a protocol, ActivityPub is based on the ActivityStreams data format, a model for describing activities in JSON format. Using the so-called Social API, ActivityPub allows the creation, updating and deletion of content in client-to-server communication. On the server-to-server level, a second protocol is available with which messages can be exchanged and content transferred in decentralized social networks. Both ActivityPub protocols are designed for seamless interaction, but also work completely independently of each other.

Maybe you could contact @pfefferle, who has a lot of experience in this area.

If you're looking for other developers who are working with ActivityPub, so you can pick their brains about how to make use of AP, you could try browsing the AP developers forum, and maybe opening some threads to ask specific questions: https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/

Sweet as. I'll update the link on the AP watchlist I maintain for fediverse.party.

I think this may have been forgotten about, or the project has been renamed since (or I'm overlooking it somehow and need ☕ ). In any case I just added you to the Watchlist in the Other category (I am also a co-maintainer). https://git.feneas.org/feneas/fediverse/-/wikis/watchlist-for-activitypub-apps (PS. You might add the 'fediverse' and 'activitypub' topic labels to this repo so you are easier to find by fedi devs)

Is there an issue or other document on the web which tracks implementation of ActivityPub in Human-Connection, or a roadmap document where implementation is listed as a milestone?

Last change on this in 2021!? No PR? Isn't that a high prio?
