protocols

• ActivityPub

  The W3C standard powering the Fediverse. A decentralised social networking protocol that lets servers talk to each other - the foundation of Mastodon, Pixelfed, PeerTube, and more.

• human.json

  A structured alternative to humans.txt - a JSON file for machine-readable site authorship and contact info.

• RSS / Atom

  The original decentralised feed protocol. Subscribe to any site without an algorithm in the way. Simple, durable, and still the best way to follow the web on your own terms.

• Webmention

  A W3C standard for cross-site conversations. When you link to someone's post, their site can be notified. Brings replies and reactions back to the open web, without centralised platforms.
