Quick question to all #activitypub and #atproto experts:
Would it theoretically be possible to host a web server + database that serves both as an AP server as well as a PDS for atproto? đ¤

The tool itself wouldn't have to be complicated.
Essentially, I just want to create short micro posts; they get saved to my db and are then both available as posts on Mastodon as well as Bluesky (no crossposting).

Ideally, I would then also have an aggregate view of all likes, replies etc from both protocols.
Appreciate any advice (or hints to self-hostable tools, that might already exist) :)

@dominikhofer actually I'm currently thinkering around with creating a poc for exactly this idea!

dominikhofer@social.lol Yes, this already exists. For instance Wafrn is exactly this. There's also one that does the same but from a AT Protocol perspective, translating lexicons into ActivityStreams 2 objects.

Thanks for the suggestion, Emelia! Yeah, this looks pretty close to what I imagine.
Another user shared your repo https://github.com/ThisIsMissEm/activitypds, does this have a similar goal or does it focus more on the auth side of things?

dominikhofer@social.lol nope, ActivityPDS was initially exploring if I could reuse the bluesky OAuth code outside of their codebase, the next phase of development would be exploring Actors & Webfinger (or not) and ActivityPub C2S paired with S2S.
It's specifically not a protocol translator, but rather a "what if we had a AT Protocol PDS shaped thing in the AP universe. Like how can C2S DX be improved? Can it even be improved?

@smallcircles@social.coop That's my plan. I don't use any kind of session management, so all authenticated actions use HTTP signatures generated by a dedicated client key provided by the wasm module in the browser. I want to avoid any unique API calls as much as I can (although I do have a few right now).
-
@jdt very nice!
To what extent are you, or do you intent to, support the #ActivityPub #C2S parts of the spec? I am keeping track of a list of projects who do, at:

@julian yes, I suspect this to be an issue on the Mastodon side.

I added the ability to manage property values on users' profiles to #Enigmatick. As I'm using this more as my full-time #Fediverse platform, I'm running into things that I've sort of blown off in the past as silly or unnecessary but finding useful now.
In this case, I implemented it using Add and Remove messages posted by the client (a single-page application in Svelte mediated by a wasm module) to the user's outbox on the server. The Actor is the target and the PropertyValue is the Object.
It's not canonically how those #ActivityPub messages should be used (e.g., managing a Collection - the attachment field on an Actor is not really a Collection). But I think logically it makes sense. And it's client communication only; those activities are not federated. When a profile is updated via the Add or Remove, a separate Update is sent out to known servers to update the profile.
Also, I may have gone a little overboard with my own properties.

smallcircles@social.coop that's a little weird, we definitely send the boost to you (otherwise you wouldn't have seen it reflected in the boosted users list).

Off topic. Wrt the toot above, I noticed that it was immediately boosted by 2 automated actors. But I only received a 'boosted' notification for one. The boost by @general did not lead to a notification in my #Mastodon web UI.

super, danke dir fĂźr den Hinweis! :)
