#HolosDiscover is back, from a clean slate.
A #Fediverse search engine that uses standard #ActivityPub federation. It follows you like any account, respects indexable flags, #nobot, #noindex, locked accounts. Deletions, edits, blocks are processed instantly through ActivityPub.
You have full control. Block it, mention it with "unfollow", or disable indexing in your settings.

@apps@toot.fedilab.app do you have an API we can use? It'd be interesting to hook into your search results for fediverse search.

There's a public API where you can search posts, accounts, hashtags, get trending content, public timelines, and instance stats.
Documentation: https://codeberg.org/tom79/Holos-Discover/src/branch/main/doc/api.md
Base URL is https://discover.holos.social. Quick example:
https://discover.holos.social/api/search?q=fediverse&type=posts
No authentication for now, but we may introduce API keys in the future. -

Sounds good. A lot text about indexing and how it works.
But no Text about what it does and how to use. What UI, Instances? -

Yes, very likely.
When I built the core software for a bank more than a decade ago, I did the same.

There isn’t anything that says my server should return the latest known state of a post, including my interactions with it.
And sure, I can refetch any activity from the inbox via proxyUrl (except non-public), but nothing guarantees my server will add the current remote state of a post to its internal representation and return this.
So this forces a thick client situation, to have what should be fairly standard User Experience.

Of course implementations may vary but the spec isn’t clear, so let’s improve this, yeah! https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-api/issues/52
