Makes sense, it was already open source, just attaching to the activitypub protocol is a straightforward move.

It's everywhere too. Blogs, webcomics, special interest forums, and they will all potentially become new fediverse instances virtually by default. It's pointing to a future where people join the fediverse without knowing what it is or seeking it out. They just want to join a forum to discuss their interests.

This is really cool, I wonder if it can have integration with the “threadiverse” such as with lemmy or kbin?

Eventually I imagine there will be adaptors for all the various types of post throughout the fediverse. I wonder if the differences will become largely superficial, with every activitypub system able to read all the others. It's just a matter of maturing the ecosystem.

Hopefully but that is a tough nut to crack especially if things weren’t designed to be that way originally.
