About PawPub
PawPub, the subject of this wiki, is an experimental web-based protocol for federated1) social media, based on common standards like HTTP and JSON. While inspired by ActivityPub, it aims to be considerably simpler to understand and implement by having a more focused purpose, and easier to extend by having a well-defined extension system.
Why is it called that?
- i like paws (i am a furry)
- it's a publication protocol (in the same vein as ActivityPub or LitePub or whatever else)
- i didn't have any better ideas
- it's quite memorable
