Ah, didn't knew that it's been there for so long and that they meant the activitypub specifically. In that case it should be safe to assume that nothing of progress was made in that regard unless there was a pressure on the feature.
That's one of the reasons why I love stories that make me cry. It's literally the only place where I'm able to do it and allows me to release some of the stress that way.
Oh shit, so this is real. I've been staring at this pic for a good few minutes on both my phone and pc to figure out if it's ai or not and if people just go along with some joke. The quality of the picture has this uncanny vibe I get from image gens because I have an impression that there are artifacts but can't quite point them out. The picture itself is also exactly something that would cross someone's mind to draw/generate to reflect what's happening out there.
Edit: One of the things that I noticed but forgot to mention is smoke gethering at the top of the frame as if it was a wall/box blocking it from escaping.
They should have updated the road sign to include a fire warning there.
