Plain HTTP should be considered obsolete. Also it makes impersonating websites harder (but not impossible)
Additionally, HTTPS if very easy to set up nowadays and the certificates are free^1^.
^1^: Assuming you have a public domain name, but for ActivityPub that's already a requirement due to the push nature of the protocol.
You can get Let's Encrypt certificates for DuckDNS, so you don't even need to own anything.
