Hey #wordpress folks. 👋
Is there any "ai" things being included with wordpress core now (or in future).

I want to maybe switch back from classicpress simply because the #activitypub plugin is incredible.

But I want zero ai in my website.

/ @pfefferle any ideas? :)

#Thefediverse is a #decentralised #socialmedia network where users can interact across different platforms and servers.

🙌 It offers advantages like increased #resilience against censorship and enhanced user #privacy.

🎭 While it could simplify #contentcreation and audience growth for #influencers, it still requires #creators to tailor #content to each platform.

@cwebber @eyeinthesky @smallcircles @evan Apart from the fact that I would prefer turtle, I am very happy that AP ‘prescribes’ json-ld. This opens the door to many of my ideas. It makes possible what would be very complicated without #RDF. It's about time that the AP developers got to grips with it! https://rdf-pub.org/#rdf

Hi #fediverse and #ActivityPub developers!

I'm currently working on interoperability testing for #Hollo and #Fedify, and I need a #Bonfire account to test federation with their implementation.

Since there aren't many open public Bonfire instances available, I was wondering if any Bonfire instance admins out there would be willing to grant me a test account? It would be a huge help for improving interop! Let me know if you can help. Thanks!

To get back to 'shared ownership' and @ben article that triggered my blog post.

The #fediverse is certainly not all cheerleaders, but the question is whether critical notes can be properly heard and addressed in any meaningful way. After all who are the ones who should hear them and act on them? It is "the herd", the crowd, the commons that happens to receive toots via their social graph, and to the extent these manage to penetrate bubbles and echo chambers. To make a strong argument, to reach people, the only strategy is social media influence marketing of sorts. You have to dare to rock the boat enough to be heard. And that's a very bad way to grow a healthy ecosystem I think.

It relates to the oft-heared criticism that on the app-centric #ActivityPub fediverse, it is the app devs who are de-facto in charge and decide what goes and what goes not.

The social dynamics are tricky but fascinating. I hope to be able to spend more time at https://coding.social

@eyeinthesky

I think a problem is more that instead of "ActivityPub has JSON-LD" you might also say that AP delegates to.. or even 'handwaves' to linked data.

#ActivityPub is linked data --> ✅ Extensibility mechanism DONE"

Which is either..

- By far not the case, if you consider the promise and power of ActivityPub

- May perhaps be true, if you have a very particular notion on what the fediverse is and isn't.

That last bit remained unspoken, so what AP vs. fediverse is, is really in the eye of the beholder. There exists no shared (technology) vision. https://discuss.coding.social/t/major-challenges-for-the-fediverse/67

With the extensibility mechanism unclear, there is no clear separation either to what is protocol and what is solution space, and there's continuous confusion around this.

I replied to @evan yesterday, as his remark would entail that all post-facto interoperability introduced on-the-fly by app impls would have to be honored now in the standards. What standards process does that give?

Developer perspective on tradeoffs… #ATProto architecture is more centralized. #ActivityPub has JSON-LD. ⚖️ So much pain and confusion, so little benefit and the Fedi Father refuses to consider JSON-LD alternatives because replacing the “feature” that almost no one actually uses with something useful will apparently break the Fediverse.

“This is why we can’t have nice things.” 😬#fedidevs

@reiver @thisismissem @mfru

I made a diagram yesterday that contrasts #ActivityPub and #SolidProject that is I think interesting to consider.

In the past I've been very active on the Solid forum, and tried to get a collab going with #SocialHub community. A number of points that existed then, are still issues today I think.

Like, though anyone could participate in the standards process via chat, the Solid team and Inrupt were not really interested in their community, hardly giving attention while people were building interesting stuff there.

Also at the time basically all available code was Javascript, making Solid uninteresting or hard to access for other language devs.

But I think biggest issue was that Solid didn't know what it was. It was positioned as 'personal data vault' on the landing page then (but not using this term), but was 'secretly' TBL's desire to reboot the #SemanticWeb. The new web would be all 'Solid apps'. But the adoption strategy for that didn't exist.

Fedify 2.0.0을 릴리스했습니다!

Fedify 역사상 가장 큰 릴리스입니다. 주요 변경 사항을 소개합니다:

• 모듈형 아키텍처 — 기존의 단일 @fedify/fedify 패키지를 @fedify/vocab, @fedify/vocab-runtime, @fedify/vocab-tools, @fedify/webfinger 등 독립적인 패키지들로 분리했습니다. 번들 크기가 줄어들고, 임포트가 깔끔해지며, 커스텀 어휘 타입으로 ActivityPub을 확장할 수도 있습니다.
• 실시간 디버그 대시보드 — 새로운 @fedify/debugger 패키지로 /__debug__/ 경로에 라이브 대시보드를 띄울 수 있습니다. 연합 트래픽의 트레이스, 액티비티 상세, 서명 검증, 로그까지 한눈에 확인할 수 있습니다. 기존 Federation 객체를 감싸기만 하면 됩니다.
• ActivityPub 릴레이 지원 — @fedify/relay 패키지와 fedify relay CLI 명령어로 릴레이 서버를 바로 띄울 수 있습니다. Mastodon 방식과 LitePub 방식 모두 지원합니다(FEP-ae0c).
• 순서 보장 메시지 전달 — 새로운 orderingKey 옵션으로 “좀비 포스트” 문제를 해결합니다. Delete가 Create보다 먼저 도착하는 문제가 더 이상 발생하지 않습니다. 같은 키를 공유하는 액티비티는 FIFO 순서가 보장됩니다.
• 영구 전달 실패 처리 — setOutboxPermanentFailureHandler()로 원격 인박스가 404나 410을 반환할 때 대응할 수 있습니다. 도달 불가능한 팔로워를 정리하는 등의 처리가 가능합니다.

이 외에도 미들웨어 수준의 콘텐츠 협상, @fedify/lint, @fedify/create, CLI 설정 파일, 네이티브 Node.js/Bun CLI 지원, 다수의 버그 수정 등이 포함되어 있습니다.

이번 릴리스에는 한국 OSSCA (오픈소스 컨트리뷰션 아카데미) 참가자분들의 큰 기여가 담겨 있습니다. 참여해 주신 모든 분께 감사드립니다!

브레이킹 체인지가 포함된 메이저 릴리스입니다. 업그레이드 전에 마이그레이션 가이드를 꼭 확인해 주세요.
