Even though I’m on here, I honestly lurk most of the time and don’t fully understand the activitypub vs at protocol war. This was a great explainer that will reach a lot of people.

Yeah, that’s true. But if we consider “the Fediverse” to mean “internet forums that support Activity Pub”, then Mastodon is unforenot the biggest pleyer on the Fediverse in terms of user count, public impact, and funding.
