If this is true then only @wordpressdotcom would receive updates while the rest of the #WordPress community withers.

I am not a lawyer or time traveler, but from Matt’s odd statements, it appears that #WPEngine may actually win their lawsuit against #Automattic.

Matt on the other hand is “cutting off his nose to spite his face” with these measures, which is baffling honestly.

Any ActivityPub/Wordpress wizards out there? When I post a blog to AP and people like or boost it on Mastodon and other places, I need to manually accept those interactions from the Wordpress interface. I can understand comments need to be accepted to avoid spam on the blog. But what's the purpose of the other stuff? #Wordpress #ActivityPub #Automattic

@ricmac Interestingly, Tumblr seems headed to the fediverse.
That may make it more attractive.
After Tumblr's disastrous experience with Yahoo and Verizon, it has done a bit better under Automattic.

"#Automattic confirmed to TechCrunch that when the migration is complete, every #Tumblr user will be able to federate their blog via #ActivityPub…the migration could also allow for other #openweb integrations, like giving Tumblr users a way to run other custom plug-ins or themes.
Automattic declined to share a time frame as to when the #migration would be complete, given its scale, but a rep for the company called the progress so far “exciting.”

Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob die Tragweite dessen verstanden wird.
Durch Glück wurde der Inhalt von dei.gov/waste.gov #DOGE sichtbar, der sollte noch gar öffentlich sein:

- 'Beweise' für wasteful spending
- was alles Ziel ist (z.B. Förderung von LGBT weltweit; Indigenes Wissen)
- Regierungsseiten bei einer privaten Firma gehosted #automattic #wordpress

A long list of new deleted sentences, too many for this alttext. Some examples: * $78,000 to Palestinian activist group whose chairman was photographed attending an anniversary event celebrating the founding of the Popular Front for the Liberation of the Palestine terrorist group * $1 Million for foreign DEI programs, including ‘indigenous language technology’ in Guatemala, per non-public funding docs reviewed by WFB * $5 million for effort to treat eating disorders by “affirming” LGBTQIA+ patients’ sexual orientation and gender claims * Up to $3 million to defund the police advocacy group to pursue “climate justice” for convicts * $500,000 for research on “indigenous knowledge” – “a pseudoscience that posits native Indians possess unique insights into the workings of the universe” * Funded performances of play “Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes,” in which God is bisexual and communists are good, in North Macedonia * Disbursed $15,000 to “queer” Muslim writers in India * Shelled out tens of thousands to create army of 2,500 LGBTQI+ allies
* Up to $10 million worth of USAID-funded meals went to al Qaeda-linked terrorist group the Nusra Front * $500,000 to group that “empowers women” in attempt to solve sectarian violence in Israel just ten days before Hamas’ Oct. 7 attacks * $4.67 million to EcoHealth Alliance – one of the key NGOs funding bat virus research at Wuhan Institute of Virology — in late 2021. Later refused to answer key questions about the funding. * $7.9 million to a project that would teach Sri Lankan journalists to avoid “binary-gendered language” * $1.3 million to Arab and Jewish photographers * $1.5 million for “art for inclusion of people with disabilities” * $2 million to promote “LGBT equality through entrepreneurship…in developing Latin American countries.” * Education Week: “Biden Administration Cites 1619 Project as Inspiration in History Grant Proposal” * VA took at least a dozen actions aimed at bolstering DEI during the Biden-Harris administration while the number of homeless veterans increased and the amount of claims in the VA’s backlog grew from ~211,000 to ~378,000 * NASA has allocated roughly $10 million to grants advancing DEI and “environmental justice” since 2020 * Following President Trump’s executive order on DEI at federal agencies, the ATF “quietly changing the job title of its former diversity officer… to ‘senior executive’ with the ATF.

"Since 2022, blogging site Tumblr has been teasing its plans to integrate with the fediverse — the open social web powered by the protocol ActivityPub also used by Mastodon, Threads, Flipboard, and others."

📰 "Od 2022 roku serwis blogowy #Tumblr zapowiadał swoje plany integracji z #fediverse - otwartą siecią społecznościową opartą na protokole #ActivityPub używanym również przez #Mastodon, Threads, Flipboard i inne. Teraz platforma blogowa należąca do #Automattic udostępnia więcej informacji o tym, kiedy i jak ta integracja może faktycznie nastąpić.

Jak się okazuje, obecny plan powiązania Tumblr z otwartą siecią społecznościową zostanie zrealizowany poprzez planowane przeniesienie witryny do infrastruktury WordPress.

Automattic potwierdził TechCrunch, że po zakończeniu migracji każdy użytkownik Tumblr będzie mógł połączyć swojego bloga za pośrednictwem ActivityPub, tak jak każdy użytkownik #WordPress.com może to zrobić dzisiaj."
