Cool to see hints that Tumblr is continuing with the WordPress backend transition. TechCrunch:
Automattic confirmed to TechCrunch that when the migration is complete, every Tumblr user will be able to federate their blog via ActivityPub, just as every WordPress.com user can today.
Given the long tail of ActivityPub and the simultaneous rise of Bluesky, which is connected to the ActivityPub network via Bridgy Fed, the future of the open social web is very bright.
Now I wonder if Automattic pulling folks from WordPress core has actually made more time for Tumblr.
