If I wanted to mess around with ActivityPub c2s clients what's a server I can host that has support for it?

@tom I can also send you an invite code.
There's a chapter on the social API in the ActivityPub book.
@evan I signed up to get notified for the print edition a few months ago, still prefer actually holding physical books haha

@tom OK!

@mariusor I got it running w/o many issues (maybe I missed it but I didn't see any wiki pages on building Box? I got that working as well regardless)
Is there an active issue w/ fetching oni content in Mastodon? I can't seem to grab my user or any statuses from my server or from activitypub.academy. I also tried fetching your posts (because it sounded like it at least worked last year, https://metalhead.club/@mariusor/113708953874760675) but that didn't work either so maybe I'm missing something.
@tom I basically follow actors and that's how seeing posts by others in your /inbox works.
The frontend loads stuff directly through JavaScript fetch and needs all the mechanisms of that to work (and I imagine what you see might be things failing to load due to CORS rules being too restrictive on remote Mastodon instances)
I am not aware of any issues with receiving activities though, and in this process the objects themselves should be fully dereferenced to local copies.
I'll add a note about BOX compilation. Thanx.

@tom looking at the post of mine you linked, I realize you're probably thinking of regular object discovery, and there isn't any mechanism for it yet, or for viewing remote objects that haven't reached your inbox.
-
@julian yes, two of them:
https://rattlehead.bruta.link < where a bot posts daily metal releases scraped from the internet
https://marius.federated.id < where I write a bit about stuff and play with more expressive ActivityPub objects.

@mariusor sorry I meant the reverse behavior, viewing Oni users/activities from my mastodon instance (or from mastodon.social) not viewing remote activities from oni
I.e. searching for https://marius.federated.id/outbox/1725894299052/object doesn't pull up the object in mastodon (and searching for the user doesn't bring that up either)

@mariusor actually nevermind ignore me, searching for your federated id user seems to work so I must have something wrong with my network configuration, I'll do some debugging later

@tom I understand.
Indeed in the past two/three weeks I must have deployed something (or Mastodon made some changes) that regular objects posted by ONI aren't findable any more. The problem is that I don't have a development setup for mastodon on which to test what the problem is. :(
However the actors should still be available.

@tom a quick check list for you:
1. Check if the actor is publicly accessible from the internet.
2. Check if it has a RSA private/public key.
3. Check that if you have a proxy in front of ONI it doesn't mangle Accept/Vary/Content-Type headers.
4. Check that if you have a proxy the `/.well-known/webfinger` route is handled by ONI. (your proxy should forward all routes to ONI directly as a start)

mariusor@metalhead.club Can you use ActivityPub.academy? There is a logger built in so you can see the activities coming and going. It might help you debug why the ONI activities aren't being processed.

@cyberlyra I'm sorry, I am not involved with Mastodon's team, or this request. But I do hope that after we speak out enough, this will get the prioritization it deserves, for the sake of fediverse's diversity.
-
thank you for prioritizing this. It's not a total solve (there are no technical solutions to social problems) but it will go a long way toward helping make our communities feel safer and newcomers feel welcome.
and to the Italian instance mod, that's cool you have no problems, tons of others do, and for us this has been an issue we raised repeatedly to apparently deaf ears. I applaud the Mastodon team for applying their care to this issue.
-
@julian No. I'm not. Just contributed like fixing typos. 😂
-
@channyeintun@mastodon.social you're part of the Mastodon core team?
-
@channyeintun not for a security issue.
-
@thisismissem Could you create an issue on GitHub?
-
@channyeintun hey, I've noticed a pretty major security issue in your new app, relating to how you're interacting with OAuth. What's the best way to contact you.
-
@channyeintun OK, nevermind, I'll see myself out... 🚶♂️➡️
