Oooh, nice! I knew they were adding activitypub support but I didn't realize it was happening so soon.

It's been available for a while, but it's a paid plugin.

Is it still paid? According to this article, it looks like all we need to do is turn on the feature in Settings > Discussion.

Apparently not anymore. I have a free account on WordPress.com and I just turned it on like you said.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah. It's basically not available for free setups.

Looks like it is available for free, but you get a really awkward username. I just enabled it on an old WP.com blog that I have on a free account and while @[email protected] works (I was able to subscribe to it from both Mastodon and GoToSocial), it's a bit unwieldy.
