Can’t follow “friends” across fediverse?
-
I was expecting to be able to add a friend from mastodon or other platforms, but it seems that’s not supported, is that right? It seems it must actually be using the friends plugin on WordPress?
-
I’ve contributed a Parser for the Friends Plugin to the ActivityPub plugin.
So if you install the ActivityPub plugin also (there is a section in the Friends plugin “Plugins” that lists other plugins that extend its functionality), you can use Friends to follow people on Mastodon:
The ActivityPub plugin provide the protocol support to extend the Friends plugin.
Apart from that, you are right. The goal of the Friends plugin itself is to befriend other blogs that also have “Friends protocol support” which currently means just WordPress blogs with the Friends plugin.
