I've been here for years and I still haven't cracked the Fediverse code.
On Twitter I could post "eating cereal" and get 50 bot likes + one crypto bro following me.
Here I can post a 30-second video of my cat trying to fight the vacuum cleaner with the caption "me when someone's instance federates with threads dot net" and… absolute silence. Not even a sympathy boost from the admin who literally pays for the server I'm yelling on 😭So please, someone finally explain the secret sauce:
Do I need to switch my cat to a vegan gluten-free diet? Do I have to mention systemd negatively in every post? Or is the real trick sacrificing a Raspberry Pi to the old gods of ActivityPub??

Grandiose day! However I haven’t read the book yet thou’. I spent my evening today building a automation by forking Tinker hack Blusky integration for running playlist etc. I am halfway there but when I run tested it – the last block doesn’t seem to work so I’ve contacted them about it. I hope soon to get help. This year I did lot of techie projects for myself like vibe coding built ways for me after taking course on ai and then vibecoding snake game and all of that. Later, doing html/css course to understand the basics and loving it all and then jamming up with neocities more.
This year I also got excited with Nothing community project challenge – and built a marketing plan even the date was done and all. As I got to know late – being so inspired by the brand I went ahead and did something cool too. Nothing has cool software and hardware. The UI is cool as they say it.
Got back to the ropes of smartphones as I grabbed Vivo iQOO Z10X as my daily driver – as they call it! I’ve since loved watching tech videos alot. I do love tech. I am not very much diving into fitness gadgets as of yet. As that would just tumble me down of anxiety passage I find.
Well, the Founder of Mastodon is giving the next baton to new guy. Felix! Also, Eugen did a wonderful job with Mastodon. I saw his interview on YouTube while dinnering my way up through the day.
I also read how a 101 year old Barista has been serving since WWII – that was the good news over bsky this morning. Also one 87 year old lady did something cool – which I don’t recall. You know we don’t care much to remember good news as we keep bad news itched in our brain for like whole time and all. Bad news is impactful is it? It creates fear and then that becomes memorable all of a sudden. Ah!

@Gargron what a step! thank you so much for helping shape the #fediverse into what it is today, it simply wouldn’t be the same without your work on #mastodon.

Maybe I wouldn’t have even started working on #ActivityPub for #WordPress if you hadn’t, in a way, pushed me toward it, even if indirectly 🙂

#ActivityPub is #LinkedData, right?
A re-imagining / envisioning of a good role and purpose for Linked Data is required. In our fedi field. Visualising things in concept designs, and product-oriented descriptions of what linked data will bring, is much required. Not "add technical sauce, magic happens" handwaving stage for the #application and business domains we are exploring (I am sure that librarians and gov did find the right pitch decks on their table, that made them adopt the technology).

Hi @benpate 👋
I see that in your #Emissary resources page, you refer to the old names and codeberg repo's of the #ActivityPub #fediverse delightful curated lists. But they have dedicated sub-list pages on the #DelightfulCommons website at https://delightful.coding.social
Referring to this page: https://emissary.dev/fediverse-resources#developer-resources
