@julian hmm, I believe it tries to make each AP call from the browser first, then falls back to a cloudflare worker if that fails.
I just checked the cf worker and found this gem in it, so that might work for you too
@js@podcastindex.social thanks! 🤘
-
@js@podcastindex.social Any chance you can update that worker to add in something related to BrowserPub (like the main browserpub url)?
Deno/1.45.2is vague (and also would change, over time :smile: )It's the
commentpart of the User-Agent header -
@julian not sure why you'd want to put your public AP stuff behind something like Anubis - a thing in general that I think is pretty anti-web to begin with
you're losing out on all sorts of cool integrations that you don't even know about

@js@podcastindex.social AI crawlers are hammering the site fairy regularly, and my options are to allocate additional resources or put something in front, otherwise my site is inaccessible for hours/days at a time.
Cool integrations are great until they hamper usability of the site 🫤 if the crawlers behaved a bit more like search engine crawlers I'd have no problem.

@js@podcastindex.social Although... now that you mention it, Anubis does have the ability to filter by header values, so I will update the bot policy file to allow the standard ActivityPub accept headers.

@js@podcastindex.social done and tested as working. Looking for the AP Accept headers now. Thanks for the suggestion :smile:
-
@julian perfect!

@js
Well, all of our fediverse software is in deno. For example, as user agent for Menchys we use menschys.org just like Julian said already. I would not use an external software name as user agent. Would be cool if you could update thank you. -

@douwe@waag.social The protocol itself hasn't changed radically in the last 18 months. If you want to understand ActivityPub and ATProto's similarities and differences, you can't find a better analysis than Christine's. She is one of my co-authors on ActivityPub, and she really dug deep into both protocols.

@evan that is indeed a while ago. As far as I understood ATproto has made significant improvements for federation since...

@douwe This article by @danabra.mov is pretty helpful: https://overreacted.io/open-social/

@douwe@waag.social Christine Lemmer-Webber did a great analysis a while ago:

It's a great place to start.

Trying to better understand ATproto and Activitypub similarities and differences.

definitely not a fan of this. tbh, there should just not be a global feed that new accounts see, because they see a lot of stuff they don't understand or know the community norms for, and that leads to bad engagement.

There is the Web Share API, and the future Web Share Targets API, but I think we could also align Web Share with FedCM and be able to say "I want to share to this type of application"

@reiver i think the disjunction between Object and Link was actually unnecessary. https://github.com/w3c/activitystreams/issues/666
i also think there's too much emphasis on types when there really shouldn't be -- it's the *properties* that you end up using almost all of the time. pretty much the only types that actually matter are the Activity types (because you can't infer those).
