Dear fediverse: appreciate the irony of asking for this, particularly on Mastodon: if you have come across any very good series or explainers on YouTube explaining how activitypub works, would you leave a comment in this thread?

I’m looking for videos, not written docs and specs. I’d prefer peertube links, sure, but I’ve yet to find any hosted peertube-as-a-service to recommend, and I do not want to be that guy telling everyone to self host all their own stuff.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.social/users/mrchrisadams/statuses/114595760520965661 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
