In case you missed it, the fediverse is under attack by a Pro-Russian Propaganda Network. You can learn more about it in the blog post from @iftas below.
Here are two things everyone can do to help combat this:
1. If you see an account posting or spamming Telegram links, report it. Many of the accounts are impersonating news outlets — check verification status, the account's follower count, or the outlet's website to confirm if the account is real or fake.
2. Donate to your local mods if you can, or at least give them a big virtual hug and say thanks. They've been working tirelessly around the clock to combat this and deserve our gratitude and support.
Stay safe out there, friends.

Speaking of, I've been meaning to ask for a while: is there any way to contribute to our server's financial needs? I've been told no last time I asked but that was over two years ago so maybe there is now?cc @mcp as I'm unclear about who's currently mod or admin so Alice might not actually have the answer.

Not the point but I don’t agree with calling you "noisy" as that would imply that your toots aren’t welcome in our TLs 👀
"Visible", maybe? 🤔 (doubly so with the photos 😛) -

@haubles @iftas https://blog.isabel-drost.de/spam-spam-spam/ ... Are there plans to make sharing activities like these among moderators easier? Do moderators have an easy way to inspect the connections of accounts to spot spammy patterns (connections here meaning who re shares, follows, replies, replies only to influential accounts, re shares only what gets lots of replies/ engagement)?

There's the IFTAS Library, and a number of mdoerator/admin communities that collaborate e.g. https://about.iftas.org/library/technical-support-communities/
For making it easier to share findings, @thisismissem is working on FIRES https://github.com/fedimod/fires

@mainec @haubles they should, and some are already doing it! Check News & Media in this search: https://jaz.co.uk/projects/orgs-using-ap/
Additionally, @newsmast is helping news publishers reimagine local journalism married to ethical social networking: https://goodcommons.world/casestudies/bristol-cable-newsmast-foundation-uk-news-coop

Yes, very likely.
When I built the core software for a bank more than a decade ago, I did the same.

There isn’t anything that says my server should return the latest known state of a post, including my interactions with it.
And sure, I can refetch any activity from the inbox via proxyUrl (except non-public), but nothing guarantees my server will add the current remote state of a post to its internal representation and return this.
So this forces a thick client situation, to have what should be fairly standard User Experience.
-
Of course implementations may vary but the spec isn’t clear, so let’s improve this, yeah! https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-api/issues/52

ActivityPub client developer experience is something like this.
Building a coherent feed with stateful objects requires comparing an Activity from the inbox, with what’s in your outbox.

@reiver@mastodon.social pretty sure this kind of ambiguios why Stripe represents everything in cents, no? 😏

AFAIK, it is an IETF JSON thing, and wasn't part of the original (pre-IETF) JSON.
Here's the oldest version of the JSON spec I could find:
https://web.archive.org/web/20030228034147/http://www.crockford.com/JSON/index.html
It defines "number" as in the screen-shot, and doesn't say anything about floating-point numbers.
...
I do agree with you that the reason IETF JSON talked about floating-point numbers is almost certainly because of JavaScript.
-
@reiver that's a json thing, which is itself a JavaScript thing. JS doesn't have an integer type, only number, which is a double precision floating point. Json is a serialization spec for JavaScript objects, and jsonld is spec for pretending that adding one property to a json document makes it a collection of rdf triples and then getting mad about it when the rest of the world just wants things to be parseable
