Decentralize Your WordPress: Getting Started with ActivityPub

About this Event
Curious about the fediverse and how WordPress fits into it? Join Django Doucet for a hands-on workshop introducing the ActivityPub plugin for WordPress—a tool that lets your site talk directly to Mastodon and other federated platforms. We'll cover what ActivityPub is, why decentralization matters, and how to turn your blog into a federated social profile. No deep technical experience required—just a basic WordPress site and a desire to explore the future of open web publishing!

Bring your questions, laptops, and fediverse handles—we’ll help you connect the dots.
