Automattic has big plans for WordPress and ActivityPub. You can follow any blog that has ActivityPub functionality turned on - here's how.

By “Anywhere” they mean that the plugin works with the following tested federated platforms:

Mastodon
Pleroma/Akkoma
friendica
Hubzilla
Pixelfed
Socialhome
Misskey
Firefish (rebrand of Calckey)

      A potential workaround: quote-repost your blog post via Akkoma or Firefish, mention the community you want to post the blog post on, and add the title on the beginning

    I’m not sure federating is retroactive on any of these platforms. (EDIT: Except possibly Akkoma?)

    So any posts you made prior to installing the plugin won’t show up anywhere outside of your actual WordPress blog.

      That would be spammy and would blow up most people’s feed.

      I saw one guy publishing his whole backlog and he took up like 50 posts on the feed and I was just like “really dude?”.
