Any service that implements the ActivityPub server-to-server protocol can interoperate with the ecosystem. A service like Twitter would need to add Webfinger and JSON-LD representations of users and tweets.
The client-to-server protocol is rarely used in practice, but defines a standard way for user client software to connect to ActivityPub servers, creating a universal client ecosystem.
