It seems Dave Winer has fallen in love with WordPress and ActivityPub too. In his recent posts, Dave reflects on the evolution of the web, particularly how WordPress and Mastodon are redefining content creation and sharing. He seems genuinely excited about using ActivityPub to seamlessly connect his writing between these platforms, enabling a more liberated writing experience without the constraints of character limits or restrictive editing spaces. Winer envisions this as a pivotal moment where writers reclaim control from platforms like Twitter. He highlights the collaborative spirit of the web and celebrates how technology can bring people together.
