      Was amused by an AP co-chair suggesting earlier that Facebook and Twitter will never endorse AP because they want to keep their walled gardens.
      
      AP is in fact federates with nothing but itself (the classic definition of a walled garden), and Facebook or Twitter could take it over completely and subsume it - lock, stock and barrel the same way Mastodon did. If either sees AP or the federated web as a viable threat that's exactly what will happen. If you think it can't happen, look at USENET (ehr I mean Google Groups).

         @mike I am still trying to figure out the benefit of adopting ActivityPub from the perspective of someone already on OStatus.  You got some advisory privacy that's no good.  That's about it.
