= Why does the plugin not support ...? =
|
|
|
|
*ActivityPub* extends WordPress with some fediverse features, but it does not compete with plattforms like Friendi.ca or Mastodon. If you want to have a **decentralized social network**, please use [Mastodon](https://joinmastodon.org/) or [GNU.social](https://gnu.io/social/).

|
|
= What are the differences to Pterotype? =
|
|
|
|
**PHP Version**
|
|
|
|
*ActivityPub* needs PHP 5.6, *Pterotype* requires 7.2.x
|
|
|
|
**Compatibility**
|
|
|
|
*ActivityPub* is compatible with OStatus and the IndieWeb movement. *Pterotype* implements its own WebFinger endpoint, that is not compatible with the [WebFinger plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/webfinger/).
|
|
|
|
**Custom tables**
|
|
|
|
*Pterotype* creates/uses a bunch of custom tables, *ActivityPub* only uses the native tables and adds as few meta data as possible.
