      Getting started with ActivityPub does not have webfinger as step 1. Getting started with Mastodon does.

        The W3C recommended the official ActivityPub spec in 1998

        I thought it might be satire from the first few paragraphs.

          Ah I’ve read somewhere that Mastodon is driving the specs for ActivityPub 2… So even if you develop say a client for Lemmy you should follow Mastodon specs?

          1. 2

            As far as I know Mastodon is not involved with any workgroup that works on ActivityPub stuff. There is a Social Web Incubator, which to the best of my knowledge is the most “official” group discussing stuff.

              technically true; I participate in the w3c group, but I do so personally and not on behalf of Mastodon, for whom I also do some work.
