https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActivityPub
ActivityPub is a standard for the Internet in the Social Web Networking Group of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The standard was co-authored by Evan Prodromou, creator of StatusNet (now known as GNU social). At an earlier stage, the name of the protocol was "ActivityPump", but it was felt that ActivityPub better indicated the cross-publishing purpose of the protocol. It is the most widely supported standard (by some margin) in the Fediverse.

31 1 ReplyPlease no, no need for political extremists and bots on Mastodon.
20 4 ReplyHey, some bots are cool. There are even whole instances devoted to bots, like botsin.space.
Spambots can go to hell though, along with their creators.
8 0 ReplyI mean too late for that, considering both Truth Social and Gab use Mastodon forks. The good thing is that you can just defederate from them.

12 16 ReplyFun fact: w3schools has nothing to do with w3c and there used to be a whole website dedicated to giving them shit. They've apparently gotten much better these days though.
