In this year’s Cloudfest Hackathon, @pfefferle was so kind to work on making my WordPress plugin Enable Mastodon Apps more open and better structured to work with other plugins like ActivityPub.

The Enable Mastodon Apps plugin allows using all those nice Mastodon apps with your own WordPress, instantly opening up a whole new universe of ways to interact with your WordPress blog. With the Friends plugin you can then interact with others, too, just by using your own little blog.

Matthias just blogged about it here: https://notiz.blog/2024/03/21/enable-mastodon-apps/

This is the kind of community work that transforms a plugin to something that is owned by the community. Thanks for your work and I hope that we can get all the refactoring merged soon!

@HarHarLinks Thank you for the kind words and sorry about that talk name confusion! My thinking was that there would be enough people in the room who hadn’t seen the community summit talk so that it would still be new to them, along with the intro-part of the talk (which was very similar to the summit indeed). So, to make it worthwhile for everyone, I made it a follow-up talk given the events that had taken place since the first one. I’m glad you found it useful!
