    ActivityPub, it's a protocol best understood when explained to you. Which is why I am doing this, and why you must do it to me. We have to know to keep this place running

      ActivityPub was when @tsyesika decided we needed the MediaGoblin Network. Later on Mastodon decided to also become a member of the MediaGoblin Network. And that's how we got ActivityPub

        ActivityPub was when @erincandescent transcribed ancient scrolls onto loose leaf paper, scanned the paper into a scanner, ran it through OCR, and then said "the W3C should learn about this"

        And that's how we got ActivityPub

          ActivityPub was formed when @rhiaro emerged from the forest and held scribblings written upon a giant leaf and said "these are pretty good scribblings, but it would be even better if..." and then TORE the leaf in two, and then that's how we got the Client-to-Server and Server-to-Server protocols as two separate things

                  ActivityPub, also known as "ActivityStreams", is just like a spoken language. Subject Predicate Object. It's pretty simple! Except we have Actor Activity Object, which are the same thing. And they're modeled in RDF, which is Subject Predicate Object.

                  So it's like language squared

                                ActivityPub is the protocol they make you go on in order to be eligible for HRT or SRS

                                You post on ActivityPub enough and they say, "okay, I guess you really do have gender dysphoria. you can do whatever you want"

                                        ActivityPub is where you air your kinks out in the open. It's fine just put it out there. Be free

                                          ActivityPub is a protocol for "tankies" to get mad at "anti-tankies", and vice versa. But they both get mad at the "fash"
