Should Hacker News implement ActivityPub and federate?
-
@evan what am I, the federation police?
@alessandro it's an opinion poll not a requisition form

@silverpill Weird! My test request works... if you tell me enough to reproduce I will fix it
curl -H 'Accept: application/ld+json; profile="https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams"' https://hacker.makeup/users/lorendb/statuses/47287792000This returns an HTML document and status 500:
<h2 class="text-danger">An error occurred while processing your request.</h2> <p> <strong>Request ID:</strong> <code>00-d3d74c2ccd32f9ea714faa9aaa1cec25-5b77500b4a1fa1b9-01</code> </p> -
@spacehobo @evan This is the way.

@squinky it's one way though!

@evan@cosocial.ca The more platforms implement ActivityPub, the more people learn about our systems on the Fediverse.
The better these systems get wanting to actually make a better platform for the people to stay instead of locking them in because of the size of there userbase alone. -
@evan I’ve always wondered what this means.
My website “federates” - by posting new content automatically to the fediverse from @Podnews . Is that what you mean?
Or is the suggestion that HN removes all its web comment infrastructure and replaces it with comments sourced from ActivityPub?
What would you mean here - and what would you do?

I think there may be a few informal "levels" of federation.
1. Publishing - users on your platform have profiles visible to the Fediverse (username@yourplatform.example). Other users on the Fediverse can follow your users remotely. When users on your platform make or do something, notifications and content are sent to their followers.
