  • @jonny@neuromatch.social honestly good for you for investing the time to critique this knowing it's AI (adjacent or wholesale) involvement.

    giving a further read: I can't really imagine a case where someone would a) regularly be creating signed backups and also b) know in advance where you wanted to migrate to to set the destination_did. Like if this is for the case where the instance has shut down, you might have some signed backup, but you probably haven't planned in advance where you would want to migrate, and if the instance is down you wouldn't be able to create the migration object after the fact.

    the validation strategy for the export is sort of mystifying to me. if the whole object is signed, then why would you need a merkle tree for objects and also an object count? if the contents of the object have changed post signing, then the signature validation will just fail and those are irrelevant.

    true to form for LLM generated documents, several critical things are left undefined, like what last_accepted_sequence is or how that works.

    probably the most important problem is that it's not really clear how all other instances are supposed to handle this, which is the entire hard part of a migration spec. Like, if the purpose here is to preserve identity, then you would need to have all the other instances come to see the new identity as being equivalent to the old identity, and there's no discussion of how that process works for third-party instances at all. like e.g. in FEP-1580 i had to spend a long time gaming out scenarios for how third party instances would handle a move event.

    so without that it's not really an account portabiltiy spec, it's an account export/import spec, which is fine, just not really needed since signing objects and collections (which this spec should use anyway) is already described by other specs.

  • @silverpillThank you , these are important corrections and I appreciate you taking the time.
    You're right on both points. I'll update the spec to reflect that FEP-ef61 authority is not actor-rooted in the way I described, and that migration is possible via outbox export-import. I was overstating the gap.
    The distinction I was trying to draw is narrower:

    I have a couple of comments regarding the spec https://codeberg.org/portafed/portafed/src/branch/main/portafed-spec/spec.md

    It contains a comparison with FEP-ef61, but it is not quite correct:

    - FEP-ef61 identity is not actor-rooted. The closest equivalent of FEP-ef61 identity in normal ActivityPub is a server with a domain name. A single FEP-ef61 authority can manage multiple actor documents.
    - FEP-ef61 does not lack a migration flow. Strictly speaking, it doesn't need one, because data is not attached to a server and can be continuously synchronized between multiple servers. But a more familiar migration flow is also possible via outbox export-import.

  • @benpate That would be great and happy to contribute wherever it fits.
    My guess on the scope decision is the same as yours: hostile-server recovery is genuinely harder, and a cooperative spec is already a lot to get right. Makes sense to tackle it separately.
    Take your time reading. I'll put together a short write-up of how MigrationProof could slot into the existing spec easier to react to something concrete than to an abstract pitch.

    Hey everyone,Gaza Verified is now open again for verification calls in 2026.The new process for signing up for verification calls uses sign in with Mastodon and should remove the last remaining technical hurdle that was giving some of our friends in Gaza a hard time (adding the verification link to your Mastodon account is not intuitive in the current Mastodon interface). WiPh this new flow, you won’t have to, we do it for you.https://gaza-verified.orgAlso, please remember that Israel, USA, and Germany are continuing their genocide of the Palestinian people with the complicity of the UK and almost the entire rest of the EU.And we can help, if only a little. And even if it’s just a drop in the ocean it’s still a meaningful drop for those it helps:https://gaza-verified.org/donate/πŸ’•#GazaVerified #Gaza #Palestine #fediverse #mastodon #israel #USA #Germany #UK #EU #genocide #ethnicCleansing #apartheid #settlerColonialism #mutualAid #fediAid #StopIsrael #FreePalestine

    Looking for Fediverse oddities!I am super late, OVER THE DEADLINE to submit the slides of my talk at SFSCON 2025, but I still want to add a few little things, and I need tips.My presentation ends by listing a few β€œcrazy but true” things about the Fediverse.Can you help me find a few more in the next couple hours?So far I have:Truth Social uses Mastodon and it was forced to open-source its code after it was discoveredSome public institutions host their own Fediverse instances!You could host a Fediverse server in your living roomYou can use a car’s on-board computer to power a Fediverse serverYou can synchronize your personal calendar with federated calendars from the Fediverse (using @gancio)You can buy indie music by paying an artist directly (using @bandwagon)You can do academic peer-reviews via the Fediverse (using @bonfire)What else??? I only want cool or incredible things.#Fediverse #help #oddities #conference #presentation #talk #SFSCON #SFSCON2025

    @juergen_hubert1. Italy2. Lack of a spread knowledge about the Fediverse, lack of the public people you like (politicians, journalists, musicians, etc.), lack of friends (none of my friends is on the Fediverse).
