 That sound you hear is the fediverse expanding! 

"ActivityPub 1.0.0 for WordPress has been released allowing WordPress blogs to be followed by others on apps like Mastodon and others in the fediverse and then receive replies back as comments on their own sites."

 @fcbd4d4b @5f30f3a0 @0c3a0f82 Time to look into this for the @40b06bed blog, thanks for the udpate! 
 @fcbd4d4b @5f30f3a0 @Matthias Pfefferle @0c3a0f82 

To be clear, because people seem to think it's new: that plugin has been available for many years; literally one of the first ActivityPub implementations. 
 @fcbd4d4b @5f30f3a0 @0c3a0f82 are there sites that turn rss feeds into activitypub generally? 

I'm assuming they'd need to add functionality, and that functionally would be attached to the proxy site and not the original rss/blog, but that seems ok
