I remember this being a kinda niche alternative to activity pub, and I always liked it because it had the ability to be local and P2P, with federated instances really just being repeaters. I didn’t like that it was immutable, but that was just the cost. Also you had to install something, which made it not as simple as just browser stuff. I see on Google there are SS to ActivityPub adapters too.

That looks pretty good. Why has activitypub taken off and not it?

I'd say ActivityPub has the advantage to be maintained by the W3C
