#Museums in the Fediverse: Experiments with #Tainacan, #ActivityPub, and WebSocial
"The crucial decision is between the policy that defends the common interest and deliberately favors the emergence of new digital institutionalities on the network, and the blind policy that, through inaction, allows the evolution of the digital environment to occur randomly, at the whim of the interests of large foreign technology companies."

Resurrected the nodeinfo helper service for the #FedBOX generic #ActivityPub service.
Hopefully this will lead to better integration with other federated services, but I find very little practical use for these hamfisted .well-known APIs integrated into the fediverse...

@Edent At least one atproto client can show Unicode handles https://atproto.at://did:plc:2h3l5x5ocsko5cabbqwksg2r/app.bsky.feed.post/3mggmlk25f5gf i.e. using IDN. Interaction etc. probably would probably need deeper support in server implementations.
On the ActivtyPub side, non-ascii usernames needs to be generally supported before @bsky.brid.gy can convert the handle @xn--atmosfrisk-i6a.xn--rdsei-vua.no correctly

A desktop app is planned, but a web interface is not something we will build. The core principle of Holos is that your data stays on your device, not on a remote server serving web pages.
-
I get that part. But somehow the wording you used in your initial post made it sound like the local transcoding was something undesirable and unusual...

@agowa338
Holos runs an ActivityPub server on your phone. Transcoding locally is not a workaround, it follows the same logic: your device is the server. The cloud storage part (S3/WebDAV) is there so your media stays reachable when your phone is offline. The goal is to give regular users full ownership of their data while staying part of the Fediverse.

@apps what still miss is a way to log (even remotely) on a web portal (meaning having something similar to web mastodon) for when we use a computer.
-
@apps So basically just like "Enhanced Broadcasting " on services like twitch.
You kinda make it sound like this was a drawback of using "non big us cloud" services...

RE: https://mastodon.social/@HolosSocial/116183535316096143
Some news from #HolosSocial development. The latest release moves media processing to the device. Videos are transcoded locally before upload. Users can store media on their own S3 or WebDAV server, and the resulting URLs are used directly in #ActivityPub activities. The relay server handles neither transcoding nor media storage. Each user brings their own resources to the #Fediverse.
