I am a member of the W3C Social Web Working Group (https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg), and have been organizing IndieWebCamp (https://indieweb.org/) conferences in this space for the last 7 years. We've been making a lot of progress:

• https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/ - cross-site commenting
• https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/ - API for apps to create posts on various servers
• https://www.w3.org/TR/websub/ - realtime subscriptions to feeds
• More: https://indieweb.org/specs

We focus on making sure there are a plurality of implementations and approaches rather than trying to build a single software solution to solve everything.
