And so comes over the next 24hs, the final issue of #Netribution's 25th year of issues and updates @blog.

It's been an interesting experiment of using WordPress #ActivityPub Plugin to publish a group blog - alongside an email newsletter. It's been more work than I expected. The only things that got more than a few likes and boosts were about Fediverse people.
More recently, changes to either the plugin or Mastodon's rendering has lost the paragraph breaks which makes it not as good for publishing/reading long-form as other APub tools (https://social.coop/@nicol/116091692977030421). The roadmap for the plugin (https://activitypub.blog/2026/02/11/roadmap-2026-charting-the-stars-of-the-open-social-web/) seems more about reading than growing #WordPress to be a Fediverse publishing powerhouse, tho improving discoverability is promising - most of the authors suffer from the "no posts here!" problem when you visit the author urls.
Anyway, links should trickle out - finishing with an interview I'm really excited to share, having sat on it for five years…
