Fediverse devs like me get a lot of attention because our work is more user facing, but I still think it’s important to remind people of the crucial work that the ActivityPub authors put in.
They did this at a time where there was little to no expectation for established players to join and they laid the groundwork for @Mastodon and others to shine!
Y’all wouldn’t be reading this today if Mastodon stuck with just oStatus.
Remember the magic of the fediverse is bcuz of them, not Mastodon!
