soundcloud, but in the fediverse?
#activitypub #askfediverse@raphael there's also bandwagon and perhaps mirlo (if they achieve their goal of federating), even though they're closer to bandcamp than soundcloud.

soundcloud, but in the fediverse?
#activitypub #askfediverseFollowing on that. I tested https://bandwagon.fm/ which seemed very close to what I had in mind for a Bandcamp but on the fediverse. The interface is nice, and the general feeling is good, I looove the custom CSS field, I also can subscribe from and to mastodon, from and to bandwagon. Unfortunately, nothing appears in my mastodon timeline when I am a follower, no track, no album. I wonder if it due to my instance @benpate
I also quickly tested Funkwhale https://www.funkwhale.audio/ as lots of comments mentioned that one too, but both the website (broken?) and the app are hard to decipher. Is that an app for musicians, for hosting personal music libraries, or both? I guess it depends on pods, but I find this confusing enough to stop artists in the account creation process. I may continue posting on that topic. Tell me what you think, especially if you use those apps. -

Yes. This is it, exactly. It’s a mastodon issue that’s out of our control. But, now that you’re following your Bandwagon profile, try creating one more thing — like an event or a note — and it should show up in Mastodon right away :)
If you have other things that you need, or would be helpful to other artists, please let me know. I’m doing most of “the typing” but this project is designed by the community.

@mapache@hachyderm.io .... okay I'm game. What do I do?

I’m building a new tool and looking for volunteers to test it! A #fediverse linktree.
It’s designed for two types of people:
Normies / newcomers – Think of it like a free, privacy-respecting Linktree. No trackers, no ads. But here's the cool par: it's a Trojan horse for the fediverse. Your profile link is itself an ActivityPub actor. That means people can interact with it directly in the fediverse, and it encourages exploration of open platforms.
Fediverse users, If you have multiple accounts (#Mastodon, #Pixelfed, Loops, a federated blog…), you know the struggle: sometimes you just want one persona to follow. This tool gives you that. It doesn’t post on its own (read-only), but it boosts all your other accounts and even has its own #ActivityPub inbox. PLUS it can receive and show your badges issued by @badgefed !
Interested in testing? Reply here.

@raphael @mariusor @steve @evan Your example is incorrect because activity types are not like HTTP verbs. Like and EmojiReact are part of the same protocol, both are widely used in Fediverse. Not sure what is the point of twisting the meaning of words to make limitations of certain software appear as non-limitations.

I'm really not following this logic: you are saying "a generic HTTP server should be able to serve WebDAV requests".
Yes, HTTP servers should be able to serve WebDAV requests, *provided* they implement the extension.
It doesn't mean that they *have* to implement the extension. And an HTTP server that does not support the extension does not make non-HTTP compliant.

@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!
