We Distribute, the original news publication for the Fediverse, finally relaunches

3 years ago by Sean Tilley to c/fediverse

Our passion project has relaunched, with all kinds of new coverage for the federated web.

Rebuilding this site has been a labor of love. So many things are happening in this space, and it's growing in every direction like crazy.

Yeah, there's an integration that I'm using, but I'm waiting for a feature to land that sets the default Actor to news@wedistribute.org - right now, each author is an Actor.

For now, RSS subscription is available at https://wedistribute.org/rss

WordPress. I think a lot of the writing flow improved, and I still haven't really seen any other platform or CMS work quite as well for federated articles as this.

I really wanted to go with Ghost, but it feels as though the main devs have just kind of lost interest in adopting ActivityPub.

You have some really interesting content. The 2018 interview with Eugen Rochko was a fascinating read!

Thanks! 😁 The interviews are probably my favorite thing to put up, at the moment. I'm hoping to cover all the major projects, but there's a lot of projects at this point.
