Gli ultimi otto messaggi ricevuti dalla Federazione
  • @johannab@cosocial.ca asks:

    > NodeBB strikes me as the best aligned of the extant platforms for municipal governments. Here's a question for julian: is he prepared for, or interested in, a promotion program to city-scale organizations?

    To which I answered, simply: "Yes."

    Now that I have the time to expand on my answer:

    Yes, absolutely! There is definitely a space for municipal city-scale adoption of the fediverse through properties that they alone control, but federate widely. [...]

    I imagine a local-fedi where my mayor posts via olivia@toronto.ontario.gc.ca, and she can talk to her constituents on neighbourhood-level instances like bloorwest.social or danforth.space, or anybody worldwide via the power of the fediverse.

    Right now we're in the unfortunate position where the city is posting notices to X/Twitter, and cross-posting to Facebook and Instagram. I would bet a lot of money most other municipalities are doing the exact same thing. Adding in the fediverse should be straightforward, and I welcome any opportunity to make it happen.

    Let's make some connections!

  • @julian Did you speak to them?

  • Currently sitting on a train from Montreal to Toronto, and what are the odds that I end up sitting next to a couple of people (Gen Zs, if it matters) discussing the exact thing that I travelled to Montreal for — to talk about the state of social media and its effects on our day-to-day lives?

    Their conversation has ranged from the inauthenticity of communication, the masking that one needs to do online when maintaining a social profile, optimizing for engagement (and the active refusal to do so for authenticity reasons), curating what one posts to social media, etc.

    Sometimes when discussing these things online or at a conference one feels like they're in an echo chamber of sorts. It's nice to know that the next generation thinks about these things just like I do.

    Maybe the odds aren't that low, maybe that discussion is happening all around us, more often than we think.

  • @apps@toot.fedilab.app appreciate the open API but of course be wary of abuse. I would not be opposed to registering for an API key when needed 🙂

    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?

    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.

  • @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.

    I think I have identified a fairly significant flaw in how the #Fediverse currently operates. Hear me out.The Fediverse currently consists of all sorts of different systems - #Mastodon, #Friendica , #Pixelfed , #PeerTube, #BookWyrm , and so forth. And while they are all connected via the #ActivityPub protocol, they all have different functionalities and different ways of presenting themselves. Which is as it should be, because Diversity Is Our Strength(TM).However, it is here that the ActivityPub-based interactivity hits its limits - for usually, you can either experience the relevant system as it was intended, or you can interact with it, but not both - _unless_ you have an account on the same system (though not necessarily on the same instance).Let's say that you are a Mastodon user who looks at another person's BookWyrm page. You scroll through their books, posts, and comments. Then you see some comment you want to comment on yourself, but can you do so?Not directly. You need to figure out the URL of their comment, and then copy and paste that comment into the search bar of your Mastodon instance. Then it will show up in the same format as a Mastodon post, and you can interact with it - boost it, like it, comment on it.Sure, it works, but it's a whole lot of tedious effort.Or you can search for the user account in Mastodon and scroll through all their posts and comments as if they were a Mastodon user - and thus, you will miss out on all the unique user interface features of BookWyrm.So what is missing?Well, Mastodon already has an "Open original page" feature when looking at someone's post. What we need is an "Open original page AND AUTHENTICATE" feature. This way, the target instance (whatever software they are using) could acknowledge the viewer as an external user who could nevertheless fully interact with the local user interface, including the ability to boost, like, and make comments.This is something that should be theoretically possible to implement, right? #FediHelp

    Non tutti sanno che... E' semplicissimo fare un post (toot) sul proprio profilo #mastodon con un semplice comando, ad esempio utilizzando #curl. Vediamo come fare. Abilitazione e creazione token Accedere, con il vostro account, al l'istanza mastodon di riferimento. Andare su Preferenze (menù a destra) Andare su Sviluppo (menù a sinistra) Fare click su Nuova applòicazione Compilare tutti i campi e concedere almeno i permessi di scrittura post. Salvare in un luogo sicuro (password manager) quanto generato. Comando curl di esempio curl -s -X POST https://mastodon.uno/api/v1/statuses \ -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN_DI_ACCESSO" \ -d "status=Ciao mondo" \ -d "visibility=public" \ Semplice Script di invio A questo punto possiamo farci un semplice script che prende in input, come parametro, del testo e lo invia per noi. cat toot.sh #!/bin/bash # Verifica che sia stato passato almeno un argomento if [ -z "$1" ]; then echo "Errore: devi passare il testo del toot come parametro." echo "Uso: $0 \"Testo del toot\"" exit 1 fi # Salva il parametro in una variabile TOOT="$1" # Esegui la richiesta POST curl -s -X POST https://mastodon.uno/api/v1/statuses \ -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN_DI_ACCESSO" \ -d "status=$TOOT" \ -d "visibility=public" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN_DI_ACCESSO" \ | jq '.uri' Ho inserito #jq in fondo con un filtro (che possiamo modificare a nostro piacimento), perché l'output in formato json è abbastanza prolisso Perché? A parte che è bello fare il nerd è usare #mastodon da command line, ma la cosa può essere molto utile se la usiamo in abbinata ad altre azioni/comandi. Pensiamo ad esempio ad un integraszione con #forgejo, ad esempio potremmo fare un post (tramite #webook) al termine del nostro workflow. Un altro esempio è il collegare l'account ad un servizio di monitoraggio come #uptimekuma in questo modo si avrà una pagina che indica ai follower lo stato dei nostri servizi. Oppure usarlo al termine di un nostro script che preleva i prossimi appuntamenti da un caledario ics. Insomma, potete integrare l'invio di un toot alla fine di un vostro script custom, il limite a questo punto è solo la fantasia! E voi come lo usate?

    Moin Leute ich brauche mal ein bisschen #fedipower zum Thema Mastodon / Activitypub Bots.Gibt es eine einheitliche API mit der ich zum Beispiel bei Mastodon, GoToSocial, Misskey etc. Nachrichten / Bilder für einen Bot Account abliefern kann oder kocht da jedes Projekt sein eigenes Süppchen?Ich habe für Emby ja schon Plugins für Telegram und Matrix geschrieben und würde nun gerne eines für das Fediverse bauen. Aber nur um ein paar Statusmeldungen abzuliefern wäre ein kompletter ActivityPub Client in CSharp wohl overkill (und auch ausserhalb meines Horizonts).#activitypub #fediverse #bots #softwaredevelopment #emby #boostok #pleaseboost
