@dansup will the supported metadata include alt text?

@dansup UI request: ability to move to next (or previous) photo in a series (when viewing one image alone). Maybe via swipe or via arrow buttons

@dansup great! I hope someday we’ll have re-shared images include alt-text and attributions by default, and this sounds like a good step in that direction

@johannab@cosocial.ca asks:
> NodeBB strikes me as the best aligned of the extant platforms for municipal governments. Here's a question for julian: is he prepared for, or interested in, a promotion program to city-scale organizations?
To which I answered, simply: "Yes."
Now that I have the time to expand on my answer:
Yes, absolutely! There is definitely a space for municipal city-scale adoption of the fediverse through properties that they alone control, but federate widely. [...]
I imagine a local-fedi where my mayor posts via olivia@toronto.ontario.gc.ca, and she can talk to her constituents on neighbourhood-level instances like bloorwest.social or danforth.space, or anybody worldwide via the power of the fediverse.
Right now we're in the unfortunate position where the city is posting notices to X/Twitter, and cross-posting to Facebook and Instagram. I would bet a lot of money most other municipalities are doing the exact same thing. Adding in the fediverse should be straightforward, and I welcome any opportunity to make it happen.
Let's make some connections!

@julian Did you speak to them?

Currently sitting on a train from Montreal to Toronto, and what are the odds that I end up sitting next to a couple of people (Gen Zs, if it matters) discussing the exact thing that I travelled to Montreal for — to talk about the state of social media and its effects on our day-to-day lives?
Their conversation has ranged from the inauthenticity of communication, the masking that one needs to do online when maintaining a social profile, optimizing for engagement (and the active refusal to do so for authenticity reasons), curating what one posts to social media, etc.
Sometimes when discussing these things online or at a conference one feels like they're in an echo chamber of sorts. It's nice to know that the next generation thinks about these things just like I do.
Maybe the odds aren't that low, maybe that discussion is happening all around us, more often than we think.

@mariusor ok, and what if the remote server doesn’t expose a likes endpoint? (the server may just not support, or the actor hides it)
Or even if it does, you have to get the collection page to find your actor. And that’s just likes, now add Announces, Bookmarks, and the whole context and reply chain.

@apps@toot.fedilab.app appreciate the open API but of course be wary of abuse. I would not be opposed to registering for an API key when needed 🙂

@HolosDiscover
Sounds good. A lot text about indexing and how it works.
But no Text about what it does and how to use. What UI, Instances?

@julian
There's a public API where you can search posts, accounts, hashtags, get trending content, public timelines, and instance stats.
Documentation: https://codeberg.org/tom79/Holos-Discover/src/branch/main/doc/api.md
Base URL is https://discover.holos.social. Quick example:
https://discover.holos.social/api/search?q=fediverse&type=posts
No authentication for now, but we may introduce API keys in the future.

@apps@toot.fedilab.app do you have an API we can use? It'd be interesting to hook into your search results for fediverse search.
