[Audio] The French Student Uprising - It Could Happen Here

Mia talks with Faiza, a political analyst and feminist theorist in France about the French high school student protests and breaking out of our complacency.

I really like this podcast for illuminating the ways in which France is like so many places right now, it has reached the natural evolutionary endpoint of neoliberalism, austerity as a belief system and modern policing/law enforcement, which all existentially fail younger people and people in general.

260929 Digitale Unabhängigkeit an der ZLB - Der Berg muss weg

Digitale Souveränität klingt zunächst nach einem klaren Ziel: raus aus Abhängigkeiten, offene Standards, Open Source, Exit by Design. In der Praxis wird daraus schnell ein ziemlich hoher Berg – mit fragmentierten Lösungen, schwacher UX, fehlender Integration und Technologie, die bisweilen zum Selbstzweck wird.
Der Vortrag zeigt am Beispiel der Zentral- und Landesbibliothek Berlin, was es konkret bedeutet, sich auf den Weg zu einer „Open Source Company“ zu machen. Es geht um Groupware und Office, Social Media und Social Intranet, KI und Agentic Coding – aber ebenso um Organisationsentwicklung, Ökosysteme, offene Standards und die Frage, woran man digitale Souveränität überhaupt sinnvoll messen kann.

seed bombing

anyone familiar with seed bombing? i love growing things, especially when they support pollinators or feed the birds so i'm intrigued by the idea, but i'm wondering if there's a zine or something for tips on how to do it effectively.

Find native plants in your area. Meadow flowers are probably a good place to look for cheap sources of seeds.

Mix the seeds with something that you can form into a ball. Garden soil might work well but it depends how much clay is in your soil. If it is too crumbly you could try adding clay or just use clay on its own.

Once formed into balls, yeet them to deploy! Optionally you may want to let them dry out a bit first. Could throw them, or a staff sling could be fun. I suspect it would help to make and launch them shortly before heavy rain so they get a good start with moist soil.

Restoring nature is key to a more resilient future

Three economic systems are driving most of nature’s decline: the energy system that fuels climate change; the global food system that leads to habitat loss and climate change; and the finance system that bankrolls it all. Triggering tipping points in those systems would see them rapidly transform for the better and reduce harm to the climate and nature. Once that threshold is passed, change can happen quickly as knowledge and technology advance, with solutions becoming cheaper and more accessible and as people learn from others. Encouragingly, progress is already under way – not everywhere, and not yet at the scale required – but enough to demonstrate that change is possible.
The world does not lack goals for 2030. What it lacks is the pace of implementation. With the Global Biodiversity Framework, the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement in place, governments have already agreed on a pathway. Focusing on implementing these agreements in full will create the conditions for rapid systemic change.

Restoring nature is key to a more resilient future

At COP17 and COP31, governments must accelerate positive tipping points in energy, food and finance.

Wetland reclamation brings limited agricultural gains but high flood exposure

Wetland reclamation has long been regarded as a strategy to meet growing food demand, given the favorable soil and water conditions of wetlands.

Meanwhile, a substantial proportion of wetland-reclaimed croplands faced disproportionately high flood exposure.

I mean, it's been known for a long time that one of the benefits of not developing wetlands is that leaving them alone means less adverse effects for surrounding areas when floods do happen. You turn that into an agricultural field and you lose 100% of that benefit and your crops are now under water.

[Audio] How does capital steal from the future? - Land and Climate Review

How is a monopoly organised? What does ‘the economy’ really mean? Is the conception of growth misleading?
To answer these big questions, Timothy Mitchell sits down with Alasdair to discuss his latest book, The Alibi of Capital: How We Broke the Earth to Steal the Future on the Promise of a Better Tomorrow.
The political theorist and historian, whose previous book analysed the political power of Big Oil, now seeks to re-examine modern understandings of the economy. He moves away from the idea of growth as owning or consuming more, and instead explains it as burdening future generations with the cost of resources consumed today.
Providing concrete examples, from Uber to billionaires, the housing market to AI, Timothy comments on the ‘Great Acceleration’ of human activity since 1950, and how all of this contributes to the current climate breakdown.
“We are continuously selling the future to those who can access the funds to purchase it, and the rest of us are living with the burden of having to pay it back at an increased pri

Buchtrailer zu "Das Tor ins Anderswann"

Was geschah im Jahre 1838? Kommt mit auf eine Zeitreise und begleitet die 14-jährige Jana, die einem dunklen Geheimnis auf die Spur kommen will.
Geht es dabei um ein schreckliches Unglück, ein Verbrechen oder gar um Dämonen?

Dieser Buchtrailer ist ein Gemeinschaftsprojekt. Die Bilder wurden von meiner Autorenkollegin Nicolette Bohn gezeichnet, die Musik hat mein Mann André Berten komponiert. Das Video gesetzt und animiert hat Max Pfeiffer, den Ihr auf YouTube auch unter dem Namen Max Whistler findet.

Die Musik eingespielt haben André Berten (Akkordeon) und ich (Mandola) gemeinsam mit unserer Band Farplay. Obwohl wir uns alle schon lange kennen und miteinander musizieren, haben wir erst in Zeiten wie diesen auf der Online-Plattform Jamkazam eine Band gegründet und auch über diese Plattform die Musik zu diesem Trailer aufgenommen.

In dem Trailer zu hören sind: Akkordeon, Kontrabass, Darbuka, Altflöte, E-Gitarre, Fagott und Mandola

Tesla, SpaceX, PayPal: Elon Musk galt lange als visionärer Unternehmer, für viele sogar als Genie. Doch wie hat er es geschafft, zum reichsten Menschen der Welt zu werden? In dieser Folge FUN FACTS nehmen wir sein Geschäftsmodell genauer unter die Lupe. Aktuell will Elon Musk mit dem Raumfahrtunternehmen Space X das Universum privatisieren. Der Rekord-Börsengang von Space X war der größte der Geschichte. Dabei hat der SpaceX-Konzern im vergangenen Jahr hohe Verluste verzeichnet. Zu dieser hohen Bewertung kam es mit großen Zukunftsversprechen: Elon Musk will die Besiedlung von Mond und Mars vorantreiben, aber auch Rechenzentren ins All zu verlegen. Egal, dass sich Experten dazu skeptisch zeigen. Auch geht es in dieser Folge um den Halo-Effekt. Verkürzt bedeutet das, dass unser Gehirn von einer positiv wahrgenommenen Eigenschaft auf andere „gute“ Eigenschaften bei einer Person schließt. Zum Beispiel, dass ein wirtschaftlich „genial“ agierender Mensch auch wertvolle und nachahmenswerte politische Einstellungen hat.

Executives working on AI at Microsoft and OpenAI admitted what its critics have been saying all along: Large language models are predatory pieces of technology that have been built on what a Microsoft executive called “an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions,” and the “largest theft of labor in human history.” An internal Microsoft document said generative AI products have created a “doom loop” that is killing “the entire web.”
Those statements and a series of other mask-off moments feature heavily in an unredacted court filing that was unsealed Thursday in the behemoth New York Times vs OpenAI copyright lawsuit that has been winding its way through the court system for years. In a filing asking for summary judgment (basically, a filing with the court asking it to rule), lawyers for the New York Times laid out a series of admissions made by Microsoft and OpenAI executives in documents and depositions that until now had remained either sealed or redacted at the request of Microsoft and OpenAI.

It’s easy to see why the AI companies wanted to hide this from the public. The statements, taken together, are some of the most damning indictments of the ways LLMs were trained, how they worked, and the immediate threat they pose to human labor. It is a reminder that even as AI becomes more powerful and companies try to shift the narrative to the supposed existential risk of “superintelligent” AI, the tools they have already built were created by stealing from human creativity and labor and are by definition existential threats to the human labor market.
“Millions of people around the world will soon consider large models ‘hoovering up’ all their work to be an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions,” an internal Microsoft document cited in the case read, adding “almost no one intended for content they created to be used in this fashion, nor are they compensated for its use.”
The filing was written by lawyers for the New York Times but is largely comprised of statements and interviews with big tech executives that admit both that LLMs are largely trained on stolen content, that they represent an existential risk for the human writers, artists, and media companies that they stole from, and that their products have started a “doom loop” that is eating the web and destroying the businesses that these companies stole from.
The unredacted filing was found by Jason Kint, the CEO of Digital Content Next, a trade organization that represents digital media companies. Kint has been closely following and posting about massive AI copyright lawsuits.
The court filing cites an internal Microsoft document that found that AI products steal from human content creators, then cannibalize clicks from the people and websites they’ve stolen from, thereby destroying their business models.
“Our AI content strategy has started a ‘doom loop’ that will hurt the performance of our models and the entire web at the same time: It is highly unusual that an end-product threatens the economic foundations of its essential suppliers, but that is the situation we have created for our LLM business with respect to its ‘content supply chain,’” the document said.
Microsoft executives, including CEO Satya Nadella, testified under oath that after ripping content from the New York Times and other news sites, clicks to those news sites fully cratered, falling by more than 90 percent on Bing.
Documents obtained during the court proceedings found that OpenAI created “a hack to get around nytimes paywall,” to which OpenAI cofounder Greg Brockman said “ah, nice.” Microsoft executive Brent Hecht wrote that LLMs steal content “without ways of distributing economic value down the supply chain, [which] necessarily threatens the economic stability of those who create the content.”
OpenAI’s policy director Jack Clark wrote that the company was “creating systems that substitute for the labor of the people that define the ‘culture’ of society” and Microsoft, in a policy document, wrote that generative AI could “significantly disrupt the employment of the very people who generated the data on which the foundation model was trained […] LLMs are a product that destroys its supply chain.” OpenAI called itself an “existential threat” to news publishers, and an OpenAI software engineer testified that “no matter how prominently we show the links, users won’t click.”
None of this is at all surprising to anyone who has been paying attention to the development of generative artificial intelligence, but the document, taken in whole, is a real they-admit-it situation. OpenAI’s and Microsoft’s lawyers have been trying to argue that their model training is fair use and transformative under copyright law and that they are building something that is fundamentally different from the human labor that it was trained on. But internally, these executives know that what they have built has been built on stolen content and that the products they’ve made are cannibalizing the sources they’ve stolen from and destroying the internet as we know it.

i made tinder for solarpunk projects

hey everyone, i wanted to share a democratic funding platform i recently launched.

every week or month (depending on how our funds hold out), we fund a new solarpunk project, with the winner determined by vote in our app. to make it fun, you swipe right on a project to vote for it.

right now, we have enough members to award about two $250 prizes per month. however, we have a problem...

we need project submissions! otherwise, there is nothing for people to vote for.

so, if you're working on an art project, or an ecology project, or a sustainability project, or really anything at the intersection of technology and nature, please submit your project! it is completely free to submit.

this is a work in progress, so i greatly appreciate any questions or feedback. thanks!

Being anti datacenter is the same as being anti fossil fuels or anti war. It should be a basic common sense requirement of calling yourself solarpunk.

Also, your choice of language makes you sound like a regressive neoliberal.

A datacenter can be a way to optimize load (even balancing with sun presence with solar panels) and also can be made environmentally fine. Can you make "war" and "fossil fuels" the right way? Nope, at all. There is no good war and no good burning fossil fuels. And to be honest even lithium extraction is not exactly fine right now.

Also, your choice of language makes you sound like a regressive neoliberal.

Again, don't bring identity politics into solarpunk. Keep it confined to USA, you are doing great.

They are not anti-LLM, otherwise they wouldn't have said about running llm the solarpunk way.

I agree on your point, if they just stated "I think that making it with an llm is a problem because xyz" I wouldn't have answered that. Identity politics is very much in the how not in the what you believe in.

We are on a solarpunk forum, if we don't talk about technology and politics with nuance where the hell can we do it? The rest of the internet is already full of low context low effort answers; OP tried to improve the funding situation for supposedly good orgs, we should be criticizing if the approach is right etc, not just shooting a "oh traces of llm then why do u use llm?"

Edit: actually asking "why" would have still been better instead of the lowkey "llms pollute"

I suppose that's true, and there is a lot of anti-LLM voices that seem low-effort and/or reactionary. I however find it hard to actively be against them, because I can see how LLMs and generative AI more broadly are actively hurting communities I care about (FOSS projects being drowned in bogus PRs and issues, as well as huge waves of slop projects that are quickly abandoned; designers and artists being replaced by generated graphics [some people at my workplace have started using genAI for public facing graphics even though we have a graphic designer on staff because it's "faster/more convenient"]).

Disregarding all personal, and even the environmental factors (as I do agree that LLMs can be run in an environmentally conscientious way, even though most newly built operations very much don't seem to be, especially regarding power generation), I am still worried about devs and projects relying on LLMs to heavily, because the current level of availability and access to the models most devs seem to use is very much proped up on a very precarious financial construction, and it i

I would suggest not calling it "tinder for" because tinder nature is strictly predatory :P

But I do have your project in my lists because it's for sure a nice application even if I think that the mean is not enough to drive the mission. Basically having a much easier interface to vote (instead of other democratic interfaces) is cool but the hard part will still be to have people thinking that it's worth to donate to a fund

Said that, do you accept donations and projects and votes from all over the world or there are geolocalized only sides?

Haha, yeah, I'm still workshopping the best way to explain it to people. And I agree, it is a challenge for sure. I'm cautiously optimistic because we have about 70 subscribers, and we only need about 200 to fund a new project every week (granted, our prizes are really small). And once we can fund a new project every week I think it will feel pretty exciting. Although, one thing I didn't anticipate is that it's also hard to get people to submit projects!

We do accept voters, donors, and project submitters from all around the world! So far, we've had winners from Kenya, the United States, Peru, and the Netherlands. And we've had voters from all over the globe. Our only requirement for voting is that you contribute to our community in some way: either financially, by purchasing a membership or donating; or by growing our community, for example by inviting new people and sharing solarpunk recommendations.

I think in the future it could be cool to have local chapters, but... baby steps.

2026 war der heißeste Sommer der österreichischen Messgeschichte. Gut, dass Österreich jetzt wieder ein wirksames Klimaschutzgesetz bekommen soll. Das heißt zwar nur "Klimagesetz", aber dass der Schutz fehlt hat sicher nichts zu bedeuten, oder? Bis 2020 gab es ein österreichisches KlimaSCHUTZgesetz. Darin waren Treibhausgas-Höchstmengen vorgeschrieben. Dass es jetzt wieder einen neuen Entwurf gibt, liegt an der Dürre in diesen Sommer. SPÖ & Neos wollten die Dürrehilfen nur mitbeschließen, wenn die ÖVP beim Klimagesetz mitgeht. Das neue Gesetz sieht einen Klimafahrplan vor. Es schreibt aber keine konkreten Maßnahmen vor. Es regelt nur den Rahmen der Zusammenarbeit. Auch kann das Gesetz jederzeit ausgesetzt werden, wenn die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung, Arbeitsplätze, oder der Wirtschaftsstandort in Gefahr ist. Wer hat Interesse daran, dass es mit dem Klimaschutz in Österreich nur schleppend vorangeht? Eine Rolle spielen hier verschiedene Lobbys, zum Beispiel die Autolobby & die Öllobby sowie ein US-amerikanisches Lobbyinstitut.

Learn & Travel: Mobilitätswende zum Anfassen

Wir wissen eigentlich schon, wie Verkehrswende geht. Was fehlt, ist der Mut, es vor Ort auch zu tun. Und der kommt selten aus Foliensätzen, sondern daraus, dass man sieht: Es funktioniert. Genau dafür gibt es meine Delegationsreisen.

Bei Learn & Travel fahre ich mit einer kleinen Gruppe von Entscheiderinnen aus Kommunen, Verwaltung, Politik und Zivilgesellschaft dorthin, wo die Mobilitätswende längst Alltag ist. Mehrere Tage lang, in echten Städten und Regionen, mit den Menschen, die es dort möglich gemacht haben. Wir sprechen mit Bürgermeisterinnen, Planerinnen und Betreiberinnen.

Der „Long Movie“ folgt – hier ein Teaser.

Anfang Mai geht es mit dem Ex-Verkehrsminister François Bausch nach Luxemburg.
Ich feile noch an Details. Wenn du den aktuellen Stand der Planungen wissen willst, schreib mir!

Das Besondere: Wir schauen nicht nur auf die Metropolen, sondern auch auf den ländlichen Raum. Denn dort entscheidet sich, ob Mobilität gerecht wird. Und wir bleiben nicht bei der Begeisterung stehen. Aus dem Gesehenen entstehen konkrete Ansätze, die ihr mit nach Hause nehmt und in eurer Kommune ausprobieren könnt.

Dabei geht es mir um mehr als Technik. Mobilität ist eine Frage von Teilhabe, Gerechtigkeit und Demokratie. Deshalb sitzen bei mir Menschen im Bus, die sonst selten gemeinsam an einem Tisch sitzen, und deshalb wird auf diesen Reisen gelacht, gestritten und gelernt.

Zuletzt waren wir in Graubünden („Graubünden is calling!“), und als Nächstes geht es vom 2. bis 4. Mai 2027 nach Luxemburg, nach Luxemburg-Stadt und Esch/Belval. Du willst dabei sein, eine Delegation zu dir in die Region holen oder die Reisen unterstützen? Schreib mir: backoffice@katja-diehl.de

Lass uns Beispiele sammeln, die Mut machen, und sie dahin tragen, wo Entscheidungen fallen.

Eltern werden in Deutschland im Stich gelassen. Die Kinderkrankentage sollen drastisch gekürzt werden. Aktuell können gesetzlich versicherte Eltern pro Jahr pro Elternteil 15 Kinderkrankentage nehmen. Vor der Pandemie standen Eltern nur zehn Tage zu. Gesundheitsminister Linnemann möchte jetzt zu dieser Regel wieder zurückkehren. Diese Folge stellt auch noch eine weitere Herausforderung für viele Eltern in den Mittelpunkt. Jeden Tag werden rechtsextreme Talking Points normaler für Kinder. Die Radikalisierung und Kommunikation von rechts funktioniert unbemerkt vor allem auf Social Media über Sounds und Emojis. Besonders Jungs und junge Männer werden über Themen wie Kampfsport, Heimat und Dating-Unsicherheiten von Rechtsextremen eingefangen. Bisher löschen die verantwortlichen Unternehmen solche Inhalte nicht konsequent genug oder sperren Accounts. Deshalb tragen vor allem Eltern die Verantwortung. Sie müssen die rechtsextremen Codes kennen und die Kinder konsequent darauf ansprechen.

So I’m with Jérémy Herve who works at Automattic. That’s it Jeremy, welcome.

Jérémy: Hello, yes I’m Jérémy Herve. I work at Automattic, where I lead a team that is in charge of creating tools for creators, for bloggers, for content creators in general. Part of our job is to maintain and improve the plugin for WordPress that connects any WordPress site, any WordPress blog to the Fediverse.

Walid: I must admit that we already spoke at the WorldCamp in Rennes in September . Unfortunately, my recording didn’t work, so we’re doing it again in good conditions this time. And that I use this plugin myself: you can follow the publications of the WordPress blog. All the information is in the show notes, in the episode description. You have the link to the plugin’s ActivityPub address.

Presentation of Jérémy

Walid: You said extremely quickly who you are. What I would like is for you to explain to us in a few words how you discovered free software and how did you come to work on WordPress?

Jérémy: I think I’ve always been a fan of free software, I want to say. I’m a blogger, an old blogger now, I want to say. I have my blog that first ran on Joomla and then I switched to WordPress, a little over twenty years ago now. And I had a personal blog for years. which runs and has, like many blogs, I think, seen its activity increase.

I was part of a small community of bloggers, we talked to each other, we commented with each other, we exchanged ideas. Then as the years went by, as social networks grew, we saw this whole conversation move from what was a free world, my WordPress site to a closed interface that was first Facebook and then Twitter, etc.

So it’s true that in my work, I’ve always looked for ways to keep the conversation outside of these prisons, I want to say. And naturally, I had done a little research, I had started, I had created an account on news items, not with Mastodon, but with GoToSocial at the beginning. And then I discovered that indeed, that I could link my passion and my work tool, which was my WordPress blog, with the Fediverse, with a simple extension.

I didn’t need to bother maintaining my own instance on the Fediverse, having to wonder if I had enough RAM on my server to run a Mastodon, to run a GoToSocial, that I could just keep using my blog and participate in conversations.

To have conversations on my blog, but also to have these same conversations on the Fediverse and to have everything open and accessible to everyone. And then I was lucky, I started using this extension myself on my own site. And a few years ago, when Elon Musk took over Twitter and we saw this exodus from Twitter to other platforms, my employer, Automattic, decided to promote and help people who wanted to make this exodus precisely by buying the ActityPub extension and its developer Matthias Pfefferle.

[We proposed] to Matthias, who had been working on this expansion for years already, to continue doing this work not as a simple hobby in his spare time, but really full-time.

So Matthias joined my team, and we started working together. I was able to give him feedback on this expansion, which I had been using for quite some time. And then we worked together to improve it, fix the bugs and make it an even better experience.

Speech by Matthias Pfefferle at FOSDEM 2026 about the WordPress plugin

The role of Matthias Pfefferle

Walid: I would put in the description and in the transcript, I would put a link to an interview with Matthias that was given in 2024 on a podcast called WP Build, in which he tells his whole story around Activity Pub, since he started with OStatus , so even before.

"Bringing Back Conversations: Matthias Pfefferle on ActivityPub and WordPress" - WP Builds Weekly WordPress podcast

Interview with Matthias on WPbuilds.com
He explained in the interview that I listened to again very quickly before we recorded, that the discussions started with Tumblr, because there were questions around Tumblr and the Fediverse, etc. That in fact, the discussions started like that, that in the end, it ended on WordPress and the Fediverse. That’s where there’s really something to do. I had completely forgotten that part. So yes, Matthias, he started working on this extension before: the first commit I saw was in July 2018.

Jérémy: Yes, that’s right. I defined myself as an old blogger at the beginning of the interview. If I’m an old blogger, Matthias is even older than me. He’s an old hand on the web. And indeed, he’s always been part of this small circle of people who worked on OStatus, who worked on Activity Streams, who are the ancestors of the Fediverse we know today.

He worked on a lot of IndieWeb tools in general for everything related to Webmentions, all these tools that allow you to connect sites to each other, I’d like to say. And so, for him, it was natural to expand his work as soon as he could, to start working on a plugin that linked Fediverse and WordPress.

Even today, when we talk about Fediverse and WordPress, the reference person is still Matthias. He also has the advantage, given that he’s been there for years, of knowing people, of being part of working groups on this subject, at the W3C level, at the level of ActivityPub groups as well. And so, it allows him to keep his finger on the pulse of what’s going on in that world, to make suggestions, to help with the development of APIs, and then to bring all these improvements back to the WordPress plugin.

Walid: The extension, it’s evolved a lot. I started using it, I think, maybe at the beginning of 2024, something like that, when I really started to discover the Fediverse. The plugin has evolved a lot since then, but for people who don’t know what this plugin does, can you explain what its features are? What can you do with this plugin, besides a normal WordPress blog?

Jérémy: I want to say that it’s a bit plug and play, in the sense that it’s an extension that you can install, activate and forget. Someone who has an active blog, with comments, will be able to continue writing their blog articles, publishing them, etc. They will always have a comment form under their articles. They will be able to receive comments from people who want to come to the site, leave their email address, their name and publish a comment.

On top of that, people will have the possibility to subscribe to the blog and the author on the blog or to one of the authors on the blog or to all the authors on the blog itself. Today, when you are on a tool like Mastodon for example, you can follow someone else on Mastodon by simply following the Mastodon address which will be @jeremy or something like that.

And so now, we’re going to turn this into the possibility of subscribing to @jeremy@monsite.fr, the address of my WordPress blog. People will be able to follow and receive posts in real time on their timeline on Mastodon. They’ll be able to leave likes, they’ll be able to repost articles and they’ll be able to reply to these posts on Mastodon, without leaving Mastodon, either on their phone or on the Mastodon web interface.

For me, a little blogger, I don’t need to go to Mastodon to see their comments and to interact with them, to thank them, to answer their questions. I’m going to see their answers, their likes, their reposts, I’m going to see them directly in my WordPress interface, as if they were classic comments. And so, we can continue the conversation there, I’m going to answer them from there. And this response, it’s going to be sent back to the Mastodon account, to that person’s Fediverse account.

In the end, it doesn’t change much for the WordPress blogger, in the sense that we stay on his site, we stay on his WordPress dashboard that we know. The only big difference is that we’re going to start seeing interactions and responses from people who, finally, before, were responding to an article on Mastodon and we may not have known that they were talking about us, we may not have known that they were asking us a question, we may not have known that they liked our articles. Now, we can see it, we can answer them, we can thank them.

It brings a little bit of activity back to the blog, which I think needs it. I’ve talked about it, I’m a long-time blogger. And it’s true that I really saw the number of comments on my blog first increase and then gradually decrease until it disappeared completely. I think there was a period around 2019-2020 when I even cut the comments on my blog because, honestly, with the few comments I had, it was either spam or poor quality. It didn’t add anything to my articles.

And having activated the ActivityPub extension, it allowed me to start having comments, real conversations, interesting discussions again. It brought back value to my articles: I went from zero comments on each of my articles to there, lots of likes, lots of reposts, lots of discussions. It brought life back to my little blog. I think it’s really one of the main assets of the extension today.

Walid: Indeed, it’s still quite nice to see discussions from people who interact at least not directly with your blog, but as a behemoth or through the Fediverse tool. And you see comments from people who reply to each other, etc. And it’s really nice to see that, to actually see life on your blog, that the interactions are at home. That’s still something really good. There’s also another part of the plugin that I, personally, don’t use, which is to follow people as well, I think.

Jérémy: Indeed, it’s true that interactions go both ways, it’s true that you can publish articles, receive answers and discuss under these articles. But the Fediverse is not just that. It’s not just about producing writing. It’s also about following other people, liking and reposting their own posts and asking them questions, responding under their own posts too.

And this is indeed something that is possible via the ActivityPub plugin as well. It’s an option that we can activate in the plugin and we end up with a new menu in our WordPress board with a timeline very similar to what we can find on a Mastodon client where we will be able to follow people, respond to them, etc.

So we can find article topics, we can find interesting discussions that we can join, we can respond to those discussions, but the content we write remains under our control because it’s saved from our database, on our WordPress site. And we don’t need to use 36 different tools, 36 different social networks to interact with people. We can do it from a single interface.

Walid: You started with the ActivityPub plugin. BlueSky with its ATProto protocol came along. Finally, you also started to develop a plugin to be able to connect to the network, to the ATmosphere, the whole network around the ATProto protocol.

Eventually, your WordPress becomes your central place where you’ll post messages. People will follow you on the networks they’re on. You don’t have to choose where you want to talk. You can finally talk pretty much anywhere at the same time.

Jérémy: It’s your house that you control, it’s your home, you’re the owner. It’s your content and you don’t need to go looking for readers right and left, you continue to publish at home. Indeed, first of all, we started with ActivityPub because it was first and foremost a project that was open, which allowed this kind of interaction from the start.

BlueSky is basically a micro-blogging tool at the beginning, where you were limited to the number of characters you could publish on an account. The protocol behind Blue Sky, which is called AT Protocol continues to grow: last year, they launched a new part of their protocol called standard.site which no longer allows you to publish small updates to the micro-blogging, but to produce long content that will also be stored and readable on BlueSky.

So we thought it’s the right time to join this network too. So we also developed the ATmosphere extension which works more or less in the same way, I want to say. I publish my article on my WordPress site and this article is sent to people who follow me on BlueSky. They can see all my content, they can respond, they can like, they can repost to them. And all these interactions, they are brought back to my site and the same thing, I can respond to their comments, etc. from my site.

Walid: yes, we typically see on your blog. At the bottom of your article, we see the blog on reactions on social networks. We see both what concerns ActivityPub and BlueSky.
Reactions to a post on Jérémy’s blog
Jérémy: Exactly, that’s right.

Walid: That’s really nice for the moment.

Jérémy: The idea was really that. My home on the web is my blog. And then you can interact with my blog from many different places. For the moment, it’s still the Fediverse and the ATmosphere, but we can hope that in the future, if other open networks develop, why not support them in the same way?

The problems introduced by the connection to the WordPress Fediverse

Walid: And so, were there any technical challenges around the development of these plugins? Or around the implementation on a platform like WordPress.com, for example? Did having all these new interactions require infrastructure work? Did it bring any particular challenges?

Jérémy: It requires reflection, for sure. On the one hand, because it’s true that at the beginning, WordPress is first and foremost a blog engine, even today. It’s true that today, it’s also a content manager, you can do a lot of things with it. But you have to think about the infrastructure, how you’re going to organize this data on the blog. Should a message that is published by someone I follow be stored like an article? Like a comment? Something else, etc? So you have to think a little bit about how you organize the data.

But I think that honestly, the most interesting, the most difficult challenge, on which we still suffer a little bit, or at least we don’t suffer, but it’s something you have to be aware of when today you activate the ActivityPub extension on your site, is that since people can follow you from anywhere, when you publish an article today, this article, it can be sent to hundreds of people, dozens of people, it depends on how many followers you have, who are going to be on many different instances of the Fediverse.

So someone will follow you from mastodon.social, someone will follow you from another Mastodon instance in Germany, the United States, etc., right and left. As soon as you press the publish button, all these instances will receive a notification that there is a new article, and they will in return come to visit your site to see “ok, what is this new article? Let me take a representative image, a description, a small summary, etc”.

And we end up with an effect that we already had in the 2000s with Digg for example, or with Slashdot, where our site is bombarded with requests from many different places that want to access our data. And so, if we’re not careful, if we don’t have a suitable cache plugin on the site, you can end up with your site that’s down for a few minutes because it’s hammered with requests.

Walid: Are there any particular challenges around the integration with ATProto?

Jérémy: ATProto is still something that is young, I want to say. And so, we are building it while keeping an eye on what is happening with the protocol today, because it changes every month, there are new tools that are created, etc.

As the protocol becomes more and more decentralized, because it’s true that today, when we talk about ATProto, we’re talking about BlueSky, essentially. But the goal is for the AT Protocol to be more than just BlueSky.

For us, in France and in Europe, we have Eurosky now, the latest one. We also have W.social, which was launched a few months ago as well, which we talk about a lot too. So, our goal, on our side, is really to keep an eye on all this and to make sure that our tool, already, continues to work well, that it works with the whole protocol, not just with BlueSky.

And when we talk about our extension, we’re not just talking about BlueSky, because we also want to promote things like Eurosky and open alternatives. So, that’s the biggest thing to pay attention to today, I want to say: stay on top of what’s going on on the protocol and stay open to everyone.

Final Words

Walid: OK. Super interesting. I think we’ve done the trick for that part. I’m really happy, because I contacted you a long time ago to talk about Activity Pub and WordPress and then I didn’t have time to prepare everything so now I’m really happy that we were able to record this, I wanted to leave you a last word, do you have a message to pass on to the listeners of Projets Libres before we leave?

Jérémy: I want to say that if you have a WordPress blog or if you wanted to join Mastodon and you haven’t taken the plunge yet, well now is the time to try. Why not? And if you have anything to complain about, if you have any feedback on the experience with the plugin, if you have any questions, Matthias and I, we can join us on the Fediverse, and also on the support forums of the extension.

So we’re there, we answer questions, we try to answer as quickly as possible. And the plugin, we work on it every day, every week, we make a lot of changes, and so if people have feedback and good ideas, we’re happy to integrate them into the extension, so don’t hesitate.

Walid: Well, Jérémy, thank you very much. It was a pleasure to have you talk about this subject that is particularly close to my heart, which is the Fediverse. For the listeners, if you have any questions, do not hesitate to answer the news item, to ask your questions, to give your remarks. It will be with great pleasure. Jérémy, thank you very much.

Jérémy: thank you.

Walid: See you soon. And then, I’ll be happy to follow the evolution of the plugin that I use myself too.

Jeremy: Thank you.

Walid: Thank you, goodbye.

Call for Proposals: Fediverse Multimedia Grants

Today, with the help of our partner the Interledger Foundation, we are announcing a new program of grants for multimedia software and creators. In this program, we are asking software developers and publishers to partner to make new and better content on the Fediverse.

Multimedia, such as audio, video, and images, provides an engaging experience for Fediverse users. It can give a more visceral social and media experience than text alone. Multimedia software, however, can be difficult to develop, host, and use, and integrating it with other ActivityPub services takes time.

It’s also challenging to produce engaging media on the Fediverse. It can be hard to develop an audience, work with unfamiliar tools, and understand the different dynamics of a federated architecture.

Our intent with the Fediverse Multimedia Grants program is to bring more, and newer, rich content to the Fediverse for people to enjoy. We want to give creators a chance to get their feet under them, develop an audience, and make a permanent home on the Fediverse. We also want this program to help developers concentrate on creators’ needs — authoring, editing, organizing and publishing rich, engaging content.

For this program, we are offering grants of up to US$20,000 to developer/creator teams to start new publications on the Fediverse. We expect the teams to work in close cooperation, providing mutual support and feedback. Our expected outcome is ActivityPub-enabled software that’s better fitted to the needs of creators, and new publications with a foothold in the Fediverse.

Applications are open today at the Fediverse Multimedia Grants round of our grants portal. Applications are only for developer/creator teams. For publishers who aren’t familiar with Fediverse software, or developers who don’t have a good idea for a publisher to work with, please feel free to contact us and we’ll try to point you in the right direction to make a match.

Important dates for the program:

Applications open: 7 Oct 2026 (today)
Applications due: 4 Nov 2026
Decisions announced: 18 Nov 2026
Projects start: 1 Dec 2026

Please ask questions in the comments and replies for this post, or contact us privately. I (Evan) will also be organizing a session on the grant program at Fediforum today, 7 Oct 2026.

Thanks so much to the Interledger Foundation who generously funded this and other programs at the Social Web Foundation and who have been excellent creative partners in crafting this program.
