No it isn't. HTTP/3 was open-washed through the IETF by Google and Microsoft employees. Corporate needs shaped the next era of the web. And it's not even TCP. The next era of the web can't even connect to a webserver unless that web server gets continued regular permission to exist from a third party corporation (CA TLS only, no self signing, no plain text). Regarding activitypub itself: it is a very heavy protocol that can only operate with cryptographic signing of communications. That means you need to be running an active program to compute the cryptography. Activitypub cannot be implemented statically like many better social web protocols can (ie, indieweb webmention). That means activitypub websites are fragile and won't last more than a few years without active maintainence. This is bad for the long term health of the web created by human persons. I sure hope this activitypub-centric "Social web foundation" doesn't take over for the W3C like they say. But even if they do, it's too late, W3C's role was already taken over by the corporate run WHATWG years ago.
