That's true. And Wordpress doesn't have to join a foundation to implement ActivityPub. But even though you don't have to, both Wordpress and, Meta and actually have joined the same foundation to partner together to promote ActivityPub. I get it, from Wordpress' perspective the benefits of having Meta involved outweigh the downsides, and presumably you've already factored in the costs of partnering with an anti-LGBTQ+ company with a track record of racism, Islamophobia, enabling multiple genocides and supports fascist and authoritarian politicians ... but, you very definitely are partnering with them.
EDITED to add: at least you're parterning with them for now. Nothing's written in stone! At some point SWF's partners -- who all know better than to trust Meta -- may well decide that the organization is more to succeed holding Meta at arms length instead of embracing them. Time will tell!

Me too! Great point @darnell and encouraging to hear that BuddyPress is looking at it.

That'd be great, I think a lot of people are interested in hearing it! But yeah, it'll almost certainly be more than 500 characters

@pfefferle I certainly don't trust Meta to have the best interests of the public in mind, and in light of recent events, I'm not sure I trust Automattic either.
I don't know if I can trust @swf with those two companies as major supporters. -
@pfefferle
A little less conversation, a little more action, please
All this aggravation ain't satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and, baby, satisfy me
Satisfy me, baby -

@matv1 I'm just the dev-guy and we still have to prove that the fediverse has more reach than traditional networks to convince PR and marketing!

@pfefferle I understand how it works, dont worry. It just annoys me sometimes when I see so many companies and orgs that have a lot to say about a healthy web and socials etc and then see the icons at the bottom of their website.
