I encourage everybody to adopt the following pattern, when talking about ActivtyPub:

  • Use W3C ActivityPub, when referring to The Specification and its consequences
  • Use ActivityPub for referring to what is actually implemented in the Fediverse

If it's important what you mean by ActivityPub, use more clarifications, e.g. Mastodon-ActivityPub.

ActivityPub

The ActivityPub protocol is a decentralized social networking protocol based upon the [ActivityStreams] 2.0 data format. It provides a client to server API for creating, updating and deleting content, as well as a federated server to server API for delivering notifications and content.

@helge for what is actually implemented in the fediverse i would use the term "fediverse", or with clarification "mastodon protocol". i don't think it serves well to muddy the waters between following the spec vs following what others have done (which are generally not the same).

Bad idea. The Fediverse is already ambiguous enough. Suggesting using it to also mean a protocol just creates a mess.
