minus-square ttmrichter ( @ttmrichter@lemmy.ml ) linkfedilink10•2 years agoNo. ActivityPub is a protocol. It has no agency. People can save the Internet. Perhaps with ActivityPub, perhaps with something else.

Saving is not an act exclusive to things with agency. For example, if I fell out of a building, a trampoline on the ground could possibly save me.
