WordPress to ActivityPub via Mastodon gateway?

[scripting]

Random thought -- maybe the fastest way to get full ActivityPub support for WordPress is to offer a feature in any WordPress site to cross-post to a Mastodon gateway operated by Automattic (or anyone for that matter, configurable by the user).

It's possible I don't understand the problem of course.

But Mastodon is open source, so it's not like depending on a single vendor to do this for you.

And then you can avoid all the hassles with having to say how you're compatible, delegate that to Mastodon.

Speaking for myself I totally wouldn't mind if A8C ran a Mastodon gateway so I could point my software at it and avoid all the hassles and ill-defined-ness of this stuff. Just sayin..
