Cultures with their own norms, fashions, traditions, preferences, and politics.

Just because 10 people on the Fediverse have certain norms, fashions, traditions, preferences, and politics does NOT make these the culture of the Fediverse.

Not even if it were 100 people.

What if a (new type of) Fediverse server automagically created an ActivityPub actor for each hash-tag.

So, for example, if someone on the server used:

⋕banana

(Then if the domain of the server is "example.com") then we would automagically have the actor:

＠banana＠example·com

Probably a […]

ActivityPub outboxes are the new RSS / Atom / WebFeed.

You can just read from them to get a JSON feed of someone posts.

I.e., you do NOT have to implement the full suite of Fediverse protocols, or Follow, or anything else to get someone's posts on the Fediverse — just read from their outbox […]

Well, this is new.

Mastodon has a new "Who to follow" feature.

Pretty cool.

(Although it should be "WHOM to follow" not "WHO to follow".)
