@otttoz@mastodon.uno Io sono più propenso a credere che dietro questa squallida decisione del Governo ci sia il fatto che quasi tutta la componentistica e la tecnologia delle energie rinnovabili dal fotovoltaico all'eolico è in mano cinese. Per cui preferiamo l'autolesionismo energetico per metterci nelle mani di Trump piuttosto che in quelle di Xi.

Right on the heels of WordPress 6.9 we released a new version of the ActivityPub plugin, making quote comments visible in the Reactions block and bringing you new ways of customizing your author pages.Quotes Join the Reactions PartyWhen someone quotes your post on Mastodon or other Fediverse platforms, you’ll now see it right alongside your likes and reposts. Quotes get their own row in the Fediverse Reactions display, making it easy to see at a glance who’s building on your ideas and adding their own commentary.Behind the scenes, we improved how we’re detecting quotes. Different platforms have their own ways of handling quote posts, and not all of them speak the same language. The plugin now understands these variations better, so whether someone quotes you from Mastodon, Misskey, or elsewhere, it just works.This means your engagement stats tell a fuller story. A quote isn’t just a repost—it’s someone adding their voice to yours, and now WordPress can recognize and display that distinction.Show Off Your Fediverse IdentityIf you’ve set up extra fields on your Fediverse profile—things like your website, pronouns, location, or links to other accounts—you can now display them directly on your WordPress site with the new Extra Fields block.Drop it onto any page, post, or your author archive template, pick a style that fits your theme, and your profile details appear right where your visitors can see them. Choose from a clean table layout, a stacked list, or styled cards. You can also control how many fields to show and customize colors to match your site.ChangelogAddedAdd documentation guide for using ActivityPub blocks in classic themes with Block Template PartsAdded a new Fediverse Extra Fields block to display ActivityPub extra fields, featuring compact, stacked, and card layouts with flexible user selection options.Added support for quote comments, improving detection and handling of quoted replies and links in post interactions.Add notifications for boosts, likes, and new followers in Mastodon apps via the Enable Mastodon Apps pluginAdds support for turning tags, categories, and custom taxonomies into federated collections in the Reader view so you can browse and follow topics more seamlessly.Prevent email notifications for comments on ActivityPub custom post types.Send a Reject activity when a quote comment is deleted, revoking previous quote permissions and ensuring consistent inbox handling.Store and retrieve webfinger acct for remote actors to improve identification and reduce lookupsChangedImprove gallery and image block markup for ap_posts with better alt text and optimized layouts.Improve support for media attachments by handling Audio, Document, and Video object types in addition to Images.Maintain consistent return values in Create handler.Remove trailing hashtags from incoming posts to prevent duplication with taxonomy tags.Store comments and reactions from followed actors on reader posts, and keep them separate from your site’s comments in wp-admin.Update compatibility testing for PHP 8.5 and WordPress 6.9Use tag name instead of slug for hashtag display.FixedAlways includes id, first, and last links in collection responses, ensuring followers and following lists display correctly in Mastodon.Automatically approves reactions on ActivityPub posts in the Reader view for a smoother, more seamless interaction experience.Deliver public activities to followers only.Disable REST API endpoints for internal post types.False mention email notifications for users in CC field without actual mention tags.Fix “Filename too long” errors when downloading attachments from URLs with query parameters (e.g., Instagram CDN URLs).Fix make_clickable corrupting existing anchor tags in ActivityPub contentFix PHP 8.5 deprecation warnings for ReflectionProperty::setAccessible() and ReflectionMethod::setAccessible()Improved handling of unusual activity data to avoid errors when activities contain unexpected formats.Preserve original ActivityPub activity timestamps when creating posts and comments instead of using current time.Prevented duplicate email notifications when ActivityPub instances re-send Follow activities for already-following actors.Prevents unwanted comment types—like pingbacks, trackbacks, notes and custom system comments, from being federated, ensuring only real user comments are shared with the fediverse.Removed a redundant instruction from the custom post content settings to simplify the UI.Reply block now shows fallback link when oEmbed fails instead of empty div.Simplified reply links by removing special handling for federated comments, making replies work the same for all comments where replying is allowed.Undefined array key warning in Scheduler::async_batch when called without arguments.DownloadsWordPress.org: activitypub.7.7.0.zipGitHub: tag/7.7.0Thank You!As always, a huge thanks to everyone who contributed code, reported bugs, tested early builds, and shared ideas.

When someone quote-boosts one of my Mastodon toots why do I get two identical notifications? One for the quote and the other for the boost? I use the web client of an instance that runs Mastodon Glitch Edition.#mastodon #fediverse
