honkA minimalist ActivityPub microblogging server. Like, really minimalist. And opinionated. HONK! "No attention mining. No likes, no faves, no polls, no stars, no claps, no counts."#honk #ActivityPub #servers

Actually I was wrong, there is a context so thats fine. The problem is that audience should be a simple string but you are sending an error, thats why it fails. Anyway that field is optional, so you can leave it out and put the community in to or cc instead. julian No but still the field is mandatory (mainly because that hasnt caused any problems so far).

@blog There are some other things we've let go of: real name policies, fixed character limits, influencer culture. They're not impossible in the Fediverse, but they don't seem to have picked up so far.

strk@floss.social NodeBB is installable via PWA. I'm using it as an app on my phone right now via Chrome. Push notifications included.

fishidwardrobe@mastodon.me.uk yes, forgejo.

I'm working on federation issues.👻 Release v3.1.2 of Ktistec improves support for Lemmy and community servers like it that distribute content by wrapping it in Announce activities (FEP-1b12: Group federation support). Ktistec also supports the audience property, although support for that was removed from Lemmy earlier this year.🎃 This release also adds support for delivering to shared inboxes, which are widely supported by other ActivityPub servers. Despite being federated, the Fediverse is not highly distributed, and this optimization can reduce outbound delivery traffic by 10-20x.AddedSupport for the Dislike activity.Support for the audience property on activities and objects.Support for delivery to shared inboxes.Support for full-width hash signs in hashtags (e.g. ＃日本語) commonly used in Japanese and other Asian languages.FixedStrip HTML from object summaries rather than escaping it.Properly unwrap Lemmy-style Announce activities.ChangedDestroy discarded drafts instead of deleting them.Enjoy!#ktistec #fediverse #activitypub #crystallang

I purchased the marcus.social web domain.Either I will use it for hosting a #Mastodon instance for myself, or turn it into a #WordPress site that I develop to behave like my own #Twitter-like profile, and install #ActivityPub to enable it in the #Fediverse.Whichever route I take, I will make Marcus.Social my main online profile for social media.

Annoying #Mastodon and/or #ActivityPub ??? (need info from people much more knowledgeable than I) limitation: I cannot change the post privacy of posts which have already been posted. Not a fan of deleting everything I've put up on #Masto but *do* want to exercise control over what I have already posted and be much more selective about what is and isn't public in the future. Would be great if that were possible, but it seems my only option is to go "scorched Earth." Frustrating. #Fedi #Fediverse

At this year's Solid Symposium, we gave a presentation on the lessons we've learned from building and maintaining several ActivityPods applications since 2022. The result is 14 key learnings that we're glad to share with the Solid community. More informations at https://activitypods.org/key-learnings-from-building-social-apps

I hope Tumblr does federate and that porn comes back to Tumblr. To be clear this is about the principle of the thing. Fuck Apple and their sex negativity. #Apple #Tumbr #porn #sex #activitypub #fediverse

This year, at the famous FOSDEM gathering in Brussels (Belgium), we were invited by the SocialWeb devroom to give a presentation on ActivityPods. It was an opportunity to highlight the “universal social network” that would be possible with ActivityPods, and how it differs from the Bluesky project.

Kind of wild #cooklang has its own federation setup now. 😅Sure it uses #rss. No fancy #ActivityPub. Still, fascinating to see something like this. More of the web trying to index itself as primary search engines lose all their meaning to what search means. 🫠https://cooklang.org/blog/13-the-dishwasher-salmon-problem/
