what do we have to do to make the plugin attractive to more users? We are currently at 4000+ active users on WordPress.org + the WordPress.com users.

@pfefferle I installed #ActivityPub-Plugin this on my website aktives-muensterland.de

Unfortunately, I can't find fediverse users by searching on the Wordpress site and then follow them.
How can content from fediverse be automatically published on the Wordpress site? For example, my account on Mastodon.

@Stegemann this does not work! You can‘f follow fediverse users on mastodon (yet). The focus is still on publishing and if we have a solid state there we think about the next big step: following!

@Matthias Pfefferle Although I'm wondering if it'd make sense to make WordPress into a fully-blown Mastodon-like bidirectional micro-blogging service.

Just because it has ActivityPub, doesn't mean it's Mastodon, or it works like Mastodon. See also WriteFreely and Plume.
