What do WordPress, GitLab, Threads by Meta, and Flipboard have in common? They all embraced ActivityPub, a standardized protocol for federated content distribution. Popularized by Mastodon, it’s a key part of Fediverse, an open network of interoperable social networking applications. However, ActivityPub’s potential extends beyond social media.
In this talk, Jan will take a deep dive into how (and why) ActivityPub works and how you can take advantage of it (or at least some of its parts) in your product.
