Re: W3C Breakout Session on ActivityPub in the Browser

I completely agree! Defining an API that any social network can use to 
connect people and content is a great idea.

The ActivityPub API is a recommendation from the W3C, and available for 
any platform to implement. It'd be wonderful to see Bluesky or Nostr 
implement this open API so their users can interact with open web tools. 
Short of that, I think there are third-party bridges that can also help 
with this.
