taquiones.net is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
I know most people dislike AI on the Fediverse, but we really do need an AI on the Fediverse to deal with the spam problems. I work for Meta, and do you think we spend all day, every day, removing spam? NO. - We have an AI for that. The only time I see spam is when someone appeals. You'd be surprised on how entitled people feel to post, junk. Beyond that, we mostly deal with normal junk, and spam is generally a low issue.
A reply to a followers-only post should be addressed to the OP and the OP's followers, not to the replier's followers. #ActivityPub
I love @pluralistic and how he ends up making the lefty argument with libertarian tools.
My only real beef is his focusing on making sure #bluesky has exits, instead of how #ActivityPub enables every news outlet to have freedom of reach. See @mondoweiss.
🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 128 (a bit Clueless edition) 🎬
Bonjour Fedi friends!
I'm having a really interesting week: 4 adult caretakers in a house with 3 little children... as I admitted to someone on here, self-hosting is FAR easier than being a referee in fights about LEGOs 😅
Now, whenever the cousins are busy playing in the garden, I try to do a bit of work, namely: figuring out #PeerTube from the POV of a self-hoster.
Yesterday I finally understood how I could create a user account (other than "root" - the superuser created during the PeerTube installation).
Today I'm busy trying to solve another problem: how do you tell your followers you've moved to a new instance? Because yes, PeerTube is powered by #ActivityPub, but it doesn't support the MOVE function.
I rarely posted on my MakerTube account and only have 150 subscribers, who followed me when reading about it on my blog post about PeerTube.
But I have to admit, the whole "following" thing is really convoluted on PeerTube because you can follow an entire account or specific channels. And I'm a little lost regarding how I notify my followers about the change.
If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears!
Oh and some news for you first... here is my new PeerTube home: https://videos.elenarossini.com/a/ele/video-channels
Special thanks to
@yunohost
for empowering me to set up my own instance ❤️
Whoa!!!
Ok, that reminds me of a question I've been meaning to ask...
How exactly to we count the beginning of the #Fediverse?
I know it's older than #Mastodon, for sure.
Do we just go as far back as #GnuSocial?
What about #Identica? Does that count?
Also, what software did #Quitter run? Did it use #ActivityPub?
I have so many questions as a... somewhat newbie (2018) to the #Fediverse.
Does anyone know of a Common Lisp activitypub library that is complete enough to implement subscription to accounts, tracking subscribers and posting messages?
I want to build a small service which allows users to tag it in a message (or users can ask the serviceto subscribeto it, in which case it will absorb all mesaages), and conaume those messages, and then post updates to its main feed.

I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.75 here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/28174
GitHub Continuous Integration checks passed OK!
It's up to someone else with commit access to merge it.
Thanks to you, shtrophic and everyone else who helped make improvements for this release!
#snac #MacPorts #OpenSource #ActivityPub #Mastodon #NoDatabaseNeeded
#NoJavaScript #NoCookiesEither #NotMuchBullShit #snacAnnounces
Added support for scheduled posts (for this to work correctly, users will have to set their time zone, see below).
The user can now select a working time zone. This will be used to correctly parse the local date and time of a scheduled post.
Fixed incorrect poll vote format, which was causing problems in platforms like GotoSocial.
Mastodon API: added support for /api/v1/instance/peers
.
Added a new snac-admin
helper script (contributed by shtrophic).
In the web UI, posts are separated by the <hr hidden>
tag; it's invisible in graphical browsers, but it separates post clearly in text-based browsers.
Some Finnish, Spanish, Czech and Russian translation updates and fixes.
If you find #snac useful, please consider buying grunfink a coffee or contributing via LiberaPay.
This release has been inspired by the song Pictures on the Wall by #MichelleGurevich.

The first 16 badges based in activitypub from @badgefed@vocalcat.com were issued! I am planning to issue another 10 tonight.
Follow @badgefed@badges.vocalcat.com for check how the testing is going!
I earned the Early Explorer badge from @badgefed - an new federated badging platform.
https://badges.vocalcat.com/view/grant/badgesvocalcatcom_10_9_a87d3860481368983e687d69d033c6f9
FunkWhale, a federated music platform, will soon release a new 2.0 alpha. V1.0 instances will not be compatible to the 2.0 instances,
I did some changes to my almost static #activitypub enabled blog, which enables @blog and @badgefed so now it can show the real number of followers.
I have only updated the #badgefed one. I am planning to migrate @vocalcat to such format because having a bot account does not make sense for the #fediverse. I rather post real uodates.
I will edit my series in the following days.

Listen, as someone that follows many fediverse platforms, @thisismissem is one of the most active in the community. She has jumped in and assisted with security and ActivityPub issues across them all.
Please consider contributing to her tip jar if you can, especially for this last bit of advocacy work. Find her contribution options on her profile.
A reasonable ActivityPub / ActivityStreams API to schedule something to be posted in the future might be — to HTTP POST something to an account's outbox with the `published` field set to a date-time in the future.
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #DeSo #FediDev #FediDevs #Fediverse
Currently, the way I am determining if content is valid ActivityPub / ActivityStreams content is —
№1:
Determining if it is valid JSON.
№2:
Checking if it has a "type" field.
And that is it.
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #DeSo #FediDev #FediDevs #Fediverse #JSONLD
Dealing with JSON-LD would be easier in many ways if everything was defined inline.
Rather than having to get the content from a URL in the context, parse it, etc.
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #DeSo #FediDev #FediDevs #Fediverse #JSONLD
And in my next act I will deploy the blog for #badgefed to #cloudfare and make it static with #hugo and still #federate with #activitypub using workers
#Smithereen now stores the followers/following/friends counts separately from actual lists, and so can now do this Mastodon-like thing.

The ActivityPub specification does not have an example of the "sharedInbox" field in use.
Although it does say "An optional endpoint..." — I suspect a lot of people won't know (with confidence) that it can go under the "endpoints" field. For example:
"endpoints": {
"sharedInbox": "https://social.example/inbox"
},
Especially if the person is still trying to understand ActivityPub, and isn't aware of the "endpoints" field yet.

Good morning Fedi friends!
I just added a new link to my Mastodon profile: @elena 🤗
How many #ActivityPub profiles do I have now? I don't want to know 😆
Off I go continue writing about #PeerTube for #TheFutureIsFederated (part 2, showing what it's like to use the software from the POV of a creator). I look forward to doing some tests and seeing what it's like to embed PeerTube videos on my website. Article coming tomorrow.
Wishing you all a lovely day!

I think there is a need for a "dumb" document format.
HTML is no longer that.
Markdown probably isn't it.
No one really uses enriched-text (IETF RFC 1896).
(I prefer wiki like formats, for various reasons, but —)
I don't think there is an obvious choice for a "dumb" document format, right now.
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #DeSo #FediDev #FediDevs #Fediverse

I think HTML being the default content type for ActivityPub / ActivityStreams is unfortunate in some ways.
HTML was originally a "dumb" document format. But, it is now a "smart" application format — with privacy & security concerns.
https://mastodon.social/@reiver/108237663610634862
You should NOT just take whatever HTML is in the 'content', and put it in the web-browser to view it.
You have to sanitize it. Or, render (unsafe) HTML to (safe) HTML.
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #DeSo #FediDev #FediDevs #Fediverse
Previews in ActivityPub / ActivityStreams is what should bind the disparate software and user-experiences on the Fediverse.
Not the ActivityStreams 'Note'.
...
Previews using 'icon', 'image', 'name', 'summary', etc.
#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #DeSo #FediDev #FediDevs #Fediverse #TheMastodonInTheRoom #SocialWeb
A reminder, the Fediverse cost money. Yes, it is free for YOU to use, but your local administrator pays for domain registration, web hosting, storage space, CDN, and of course, bandwidth. The busier and more active your Fedi site, the most it cost. If you are able, consider reaching out to your admin, and asking how you can help. Even small contributions add up and make a difference.
Badges on the Fediverse?! Yep, it’s happening! 🎉 I’ve got a working prototype for issuing badges with ActivityPub! It's a bit rough around the edges, but I need some help to make it awesome!
💜 Check it out the teaser video and let me know what you think! 🦝✨
#Collaboration #Fediverse #ActivityPub #Badges #HelpWanted #AskFedi
What I'd really like to see is BlueSky modifying their AT protocol to allow AT relays to treat ActivityPub servers as Personal Data Servers. Maybe by using aspects of the Solid protocol, as demonstrated by @activitypods?
No idea if this is technically viable, I'm just thinking out loud here. But just imagine unifying the efforts of AP, Solid and AT developer ...
Federated Badges! Very early stages but cool to see new ideas outside of a social media timelines.

Oooh @snarfed.org will be speaking about "All the protocols, compared" in 45 minutes at 4:45 PM CT.
Nice article about #activitypub over #atproto, by @robin
Llevaba tiempo preguntándome si sería posible integrar el protocolo #ActivityPub (el fedi) en los #PDS (Personal Data Server) de #ATProto (el protocolo que usa #BlueSky y potencialmente otras redes futuras) y he dado con este artículo.
En resumen: aún no, pero sí podría ser posible en un futuro.
Honestamente, si existe una posibilidad de que ambos protocolos lleguen a converger, se debería apostar por ello. Internet ya está demasiado fragmentada.
Nick Gerakines ( @ngerakines.me ):
ActivityPub and Mastodon are effectively the same thing to most people.
( @reiver note: this seems similar to the phrase "the Mastodon in the room".)
#ATmosphereConf #ActivityPub #Fediverse #Mastodon #TheMastodonInTheRoom
Paul Frazee ( @pfrazee.com ):
ActivityPump got renamed to ActivityPub — that was a good rename 🙂
#Fediverse #ActivityPub question:
TIL about Fediver byline tag on articles: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/07/highlighting-journalism-on-mastodon/
But why not also include the publication's own handle?

Pues ya he integrado en #ActivityPub mi blog. Cuantas cosas se puede hacer con esto de la informática y el internet, eh?
🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 93 ✨
Thanks to the brilliant advice of @CyberSaloperie I have found an easy-to-implement, no sweat solution for my redirect issue. I am about to create a test subdomain with #YunoHost to try it out before I make the real switch (from my current Ghost blog to the new, self-hosted one).
Maybe tomorrow I'll share with you the URL of my self-hosted Ghost blog if you want to try things out? 🙈 I have already imported my existing members, I'm ready to go 🚀
And yes, I'm fully aware the timing of my switch (from a Ghost Pro plan to self-hosted) is odd, considering Ghost Pro accounts are now part of the Fediverse. It's just that I couldn't justify spending so much ($31/month) on a free, non-monetized blog that I am capable of self-hosting. It's 6x the cost of my Debian or Ubuntu VPS.
And I kept getting close to the edge of 1000 members, which would have increased my monthly payments. Now I don't have to stress out about getting new readers. From what I understand #ActivityPub followers count as members for Ghost, so someone who gets a sizable following on their federated Ghost site would have to pay more.
I'm sure many people will love this feature (it's fantastic!) but it's not for me. I already have 3 federated Wordpress blogs and too many ActivityPub profiles as it is 🙃

Reverted (temporarily) the Markdown code that converted text between underscores to italics, because it was causing more problems that what it was worth.
Fixed bug in bookmark CSV import.

Sigo sin poder usar las app de #mastodon para controlar e interactuar desde @curiosabiologia. El sitio alvarobayon.com está en #wordpress, tiene activado el plugin #activityPub y he instalado el “enable mastodon app” (EMA)
Esta semana he intentado cacharrear un poco más, desactivando todos los plugin salvo los dos necesarios. Y nada.
¿Alguien tiene alguna idea antes de intentar preguntar en el foro del EMA?
UPDATE: A blog (that is federated) was created for communicate the progress, follow @badgefed
--
I am creating a #ActivityPub minimalistic implementation of a badge system similar to Credly, built using #dotnet and leveraging the #Fediverse
I have issued a first badge, the idea is to decentralize the verification systems, and allow organizations to self-certify. It is incredible that organizations like Microsoft or Non-Profits pay thousands of dollars to companies like Pearson to just provide "verified" badges. Similar to mastodons installed in social-dot-something, thinkg of badges<dot> mozilla<dot>com , certifications<dot>myschooldistrict<dot>com. Or even a podcast emitting a badge for its guests, with the verification in the domain.
ActivityPub already offers a secure way to sign artifacts and interact between actors. The fediverse already have people with profiles, a social graph as @mike says, ready to use. Think of how LetsEncrypt disrupted that market of few actors selling certificates for websites.
I have a functional poc,
@fediverse is not a mastodon, pledora or blog, it is an actor in a badge system, but you can follow it in Mastodon. Its badges will show in #mastodon but they are not notes or articles. If you want to learn more, follow me, I will be sharing the progress here. Or follow the github project here: https://github.com/tryvocalcat/activitypub-badges
Who wants a badge of early adopter?

I'm finally unveiling the #ActivityPub project that has been consuming my weekends: Encyclia, an #ORCID bridge that will make ORCID records followable and interactable on the fediverse. 🙂
It's early-stage and the ORCID following function is not publicly available yet. We're seeking community feedback on functionality and safety aspects. Read more at https://encyclia.pub or follow @encyclia for news!
#Smithereen now allows you to transfer your followers between servers.
Shoutout to #FediMeteo @admin and @stefano for the #RSS and #ActivityPub #federated #weather service. Finally, a reliable weather tool across platforms.
A week or so ago I reached out and they added my community. Every time the new weather report post or RSS feed comes through, I appreciate it so much.
Thanks again! #WX #Fediverse
I love this, it is my first test, but what a nice thing to read the post directly in #mastodon or whatever client you are using
You know that stupid kid in early grade school who ate paste, and you are still surprised they are still alive, with all the stupid, irrational, and illogical choices you know they made?! That is your target audience, and you should assume there are millions of those types of people. If you can make something, even they can use without putting any thought into it, and easily wrap their head around, you will have created something widely successful.
I just created yet another minimal #activitypub service in #dotnet. Super excited about this one, but I may have time to put the actual cool features until the weekend.
Stay tuned.
You, people, are GREAT. Thank you very much.
I can't believe it. I don't know how to feel.
I am writing another #activitypub service in dotnet, I tried to use GitHub copilot, and it generated MY classes. I mean, it generated classes that clearly are 90% based in MY code that I wrote and is in github. The namespace, the methods names, the models, ... WOW

I just found out about WAFRN and... Yes!!! (it's a tumblr-like that uses both ActivityPub and ATProtocol natively!)
But it turns out I didn't spam anyone, because the only broadcasted activities are user deletions, so there was nobody to receive the spam.
