Steve Bate has a long blog post about why ActivityPubโ€™s client-to-server protocol has not been implemented:

Yet despite its promise, ActivityPub C2S has seen minimal real-world adoption. Most Fediverse platforms โ€” including Mastodon, the dominant implementation โ€” have actively avoided supporting it. Instead, they expose custom APIs that tightly couple client behavior to server internals.

More clients should use Micropub. It is also a W3C recommendation, but unlike C2S, Micropub is already widely implemented and has evolved through extensions to accommodate most real-world use cases.

Earlier this week I posted about rough edges I encountered using WebC. I wanted to follow up with specific technical details from the ones I documented in the process of converting my website to it.

To those #indieweb people that have a weekly or monthly roundup post do you use a template? If so would I be able to steal it?

For weekly peeps do you write down each day or go back through the week one time as much as you can remember? TIA
