Not to be discouraging, but isn't this the role ActivityPub already fills?

  Yes, but I am shooting for something even simpler. Like going from SOAP to REST. I think a simple API will encourage more implementations. My vision is also something a little more narrow, such as: profile -> follow|unfollow, post, post -> comment|like|reply set of uses cases. It's not trying to cover all possibilities of social media interactions.

    If you're doing that, it may be good for the API to be an abstraction over the existing protocols rather than creating a new protocol as well. That way you get the simplification and interoperability with the existing fediverse.
