@BigAngBlack @lrhodes @danyork You're right, you don't need a Mastodon or Pixelfed or Friendica or... account to connect your WordPress blog to the Fediverse. It becomes its own instance. It's just easier to check and reshare and publicize you WP+AP, that's all. With WP+AP, you post to the Fediverse, and your followers (if any) will see and be able to comment.
