The max_id, since_id, and min_id parameters in #Mastodon's Timeline API assume that the post ID is a sortable number. (Is this correct?) #Hollo, the #ActivityPub implementation I'm building, uses UUIDs for post IDs internally, so I'm stuck on how to implement a Mastodon-compatible API.
Boh, give up. Ho cercato di "federare" un blog Wordpress usando il famoso plugin, ma non funziona .."perche' dipende da questo ..perche' dipende da quell'altro.. ah ma forse il tuo hosting... ah, ma forse gli admin hanno attivato quell'altro .. ah ma forse sticazzi?".
I get that #nostr is popular with people who don't want to share a server with anybody (and their rules). But don't lots of people achieve that with a stripped down implementation of #ActivityPub?
Every time I take a stab at building for the Fediverse, I'm immediately drained for motivation by the ambiguities and contradictions of the AP/AS2 family of specs.
Oh, you want to do some validation of the actor property of activities posted to the Outbox? Good luck. It can have any number of values, and can even (per examples in the AS2 spec) mention actors from different instances.
Look at how @mikedev designed events in @streams! I would love to see this implemented in other software. @julian have you thought about how @nodebb would display an #ActivityPub event yet? Does @silverpill's @mitra have any support? What about @grunfink's SNAC?
"In 2024, for the first time, it finally feels like we have a critical mass of people and platforms who are interested in rewilding the internet to bring back what we lost, and create something new. ... There's a palpable feeling that this just might be the year of the open web."
Bluesky enthusiasts are stating that Bluesky has ”plans” to make ATProto universal and transfer it to W3C or the like. Well, there is no evidence that Bluesky wants to give up control or the protocol is going to be widely adopted after 5 years of development so forgive me being sceptical. The story is a bit different with ActivityPub.
Nel 2024, per la prima volta, si ha finalmente la sensazione di avere una massa critica di persone e piattaforme interessate a ridare vita a Internet per riportare in vita ciò che abbiamo perso e creare qualcosa di nuovo. Solo nell'ultima settimana ci sono state conversazioni fra #Mastodon, #Flipboard, #TheVerge, #Buttondown, #WriteFreely e diversi co-autori della specifica #ActivityPub. C'è la sensazione palpabile che questo possa essere l'anno del web aperto!
It's hard to imagine #StackOverflow made their decision without considering the fate #Twitter and #Reddit suffered. That they willingly chose to burn the remaining goodwill they had with their users is bewildering.
Former CEO of Twitter wanted to build a social protocol no-one can control, like SMTP or HTTP for social media. Bluesky’s ATProto was supposed to be an open source protocol that Twitter could eventually utilize, but then Musk happened and Bluesky started taking it to the wrong direction and everything fell apart in Dorsey’s mind.
A very revealing interview. I now see even more future in W3C’s ActivityPub.
If you're a #fedidev working on an #ActivityPub/Mastodon-compatible server, don't forget that the WebFinger JRD media type is "application/jrd+json" and not "application/json". The early @feditest test results show this is a common mistake.
