That’s misleading. They talked about considering the problem and creating a team to investigate solutions.They were clear about the fact that they would consider existing projects if they match their requirements.

And that's all we've heard about it. I think ActvityPub definitely does not match their requirements, and also, I doubt any federation system does.

I'm saying this because their primary requirement is clearly to have strict control over their own^H^H^Huser's content.
