Some folks have gotten themselves together as something they’re calling the Social Web Foundation, and I’ll cut to the chase: this is an attempt by ActivityPub partisans to rebrand the confusing “fediverse” terminology, and in the process, regardless of intent, shit on everything else that’s been the social web going back twenty-five years.

As I’ve only just recently written here, blog comments are not social media, and I think such things should remain separate.

So it's definitely not social media but it is the social web? I don't see any comments section at all over there. Some of these "indieweb" guys are pretty weird.
