@julian hmm, kind of like how you, on a NodeBB forum, saw a post on Mastodon, and our collective conversation is magically appearing at the bottom of a WordPress blogpost.Translated: Everyone can see everyone's comments, even if they're on a different web site.

Unlocking development with #ActivityPub Client to Server APIhttps://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/QK7XSV-activitypub-c2s/

I would like to try out NodeBB as time permits! What would the server be about? The context didn't make it to Bluesky it seems (yet?)

@dansup resize image for viewers, please.

Loops also uses snowflake ids for ActivityPub actor identifiers!I noticed that Mastodon has adopted this too, great to see. I will be bringing this to Pixelfed later this year as well 😁https://browser.pub/https://loops.video/ap/users/1#Loops #ActivityPub #LoopsDev

@eyeinthesky @maikel You're right about that. Add in the lack of tools for building and testing ActivityPub, JSON-LD baggage, and HTTP signatures insanity, and it's amazing that anything gets built at all :)Fortunately, it looks like some real progress is being made, so hopefully 2026, 2027, and 2028 will bring the community together with better tools and specs, and give devs (even the big one) good reasons to improve compatability.

Thanks! Good to know. @ivan @maikel

@vftdanTor: here is a list https://fedilist.com/instance?q=&ip=&software=&registrations=&onion=onlyI2P: http://mastodon.i2p is currently onlineYggdrasil: there was a few, but I can't find them now

RE: https://ohai.social/@miri64/115870265456939250Again a new presentation of #activitypub and #atprotocol

It looks like Kevin Roose (NY Times columnist who hosts the Hard Fork podcast, hence the name) set up theforkiverse and invited folks to join. FYI @laurenshof new instance alert, the start of a trend?@KentNavalesi

@Jasper BurnsPermissions, part 3: At contact levelLet's go one level further down. The second level of Hubzilla's permission system is per contact. On Mastodon, that'd be those whom you follow.If Mastodon was like Hubzilla, you'd have the possibility to create permission templates which you can then assign to those whom you follow. (Hubzilla calls them "contact roles", by the way.)Like, you could make one template for those whom you really trust. You grant all permissions in that template.Then you could make one that's more privacy-oriented. You only grant permission to send you toots, fave and reply to your toots and send you DMs.In theory, you could also make one for those whom you absolutely must follow, but whose toots you don't want. In this one, you only grant permission to fave and reply to your toots and send you DMs. This, however, only makes sense on something that works like Facebook, something like Hubzilla, where you can only confirm follow requests by also following back because connections are always mutual by default.Then you could go to your list of followed accounts. And you could edit and configure them, one by one. You could choose which of these permission templates is assigned to them and thereby what you allow them to do. While you're already there, you could also, for example, add them to lists or remove them from lists.There's one catch, though: If you grant a permission for your whole account, you automatically grant it to everyone whom you follow. You cannot forbid one of your followed something your account generally allows. So if you want to be able to choose whether someone is allowed to do something or not, you must not allow it for your whole account, and instead, you must allow it followed by followed.(streams) and Forte make things a great deal easier than Hubzilla, by the way: They don't require such templates anymore. Instead, when you go edit a contact, you'll see one on-off switch for each permission, and you can turn each permission on or off right there, right then (provided it isn't inherited from the channel). You still have such templates, but they only serve to grant the same set of permissions to a whole lot of contacts without having to click single permissions on or off for all of them.(7/9)#Long #LongPost #CWLong #CWLongPost #FediMeta #FediverseMeta #CWFediMeta #CWFediverseMeta #Fediverse #Hubzilla #Streams #(streams) #Forte #Privacy #Security #Permission #Permissions

@snarfed.org does remembering this make me old? 🫣☺️happy birthday!! 🎉

@dtm No problem!@GrumpusNation

@julian @glocq I agree! That series of posts created by @crepels are a treasure trove of resources and a masterpiece of clarity!

@dtm I’m glad it’s working, and welcome to the fediverse. 😊

The beauty of #ActivityPubYes, Loops federates, and admins can enable any remote instance video posts to appear in local follower feeds AND you can even include them in the For You page ✨https://joinloops.org/join-the-beta#Loops #Fediverse #interoperability

@julian No. I'm not. Just contributed like fixing typos. 😂

Fediverse account backups via 3rd party FOSS servicePersonal Archive Node (PAN) is quite brilliant, its compatible with most fediverse software already, and uses a dual strategy for data backup, with one being adaptable to most fediverse software via adapters.While not exactly ideal, PAN solves the issue of unforseen instance shutdowns in a short term fashion, while paving the way for a long term, more efficient solution ✨More details soon.#PAN #ActivityPub #PersonalArchiveNode

@cyberlyra I'm sorry, I am not involved with Mastodon's team, or this request. But I do hope that after we speak out enough, this will get the prioritization it deserves, for the sake of fediverse's diversity.@informapirata

Can somebody help with this weird #Wordpress issue? Wordpress keeps adding tags such as "1" or "2" in tags, even when repeatedly removed from the post and updated. Nothing works - full update, quick update in the list etc. Is it related to some plugin or is WP acting on its own? I see correct POST request, however it comes back with 1, 2 added automatically. Another thing that makes me want to really change my blog engine. Wordpress is just getting bloated by the day. #wp #webdev #php #tags
