[Making the Social Web a Better Place: ActivityPub for WordPress Joins the Automattic Family](http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2023/03/17/making-the-social-web-a-better-place-activitypub-for-wordpress-joins-the-automattic-family/)

This acquisition may not seem like a big deal at the moment, but I think it’s huge!
When you think about the vast number of websites that run on WordPress, you begin
to realize the possibilities of websites communicating with each other on a common
protocol and users communicating across the internet with one identity.

I use ActivityPub for WordPress on Probstisms and am excited to see its progress
now that it has the backing of Automattic’s support.
