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!

#fedidev #BonfireNetworks

I wish #Signal and #Fediverse polls allowed #RankedChoiceVoting . It would help normalize this essential ingredient for democratic societies, ideally by making people realize “winner takes all” decisions need not be the default.

I have one question. If the fediverse is open source and free for everyone, why do they act like private companies? Why i cant see content on loops or pixelfed whitout logging in? Wheres the search bar? #loops #pixelfed #searchbar #opensource #fediverse

I’m looking for a commercial Mastodon hosting solution for a small organization… I know of @mastohost but are there others out there worth looking at?

Lange keinen #Presseclub mehr geschaut. Aber wenn @kattascha @gavinkarlmeier dabei sind, lohnt sich das einschalten. Alle haben einen guten Job gemacht. Fantastisch, wie am Ende #Fediverse gesagt und nicht gesagt wird. Stattdessen, zielgruppengerecht: #Interoperabilität und #OpenSource.

Hello, Fediverse 👋

I'm Sophie. I run a digital ops consultancy from the south of France, working with purpose-led businesses.

I'm in the process of leaving Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn. I got tired of building on platforms that sell our data, gut safety systems to please politicians, and treat people as products.

Still figuring it all out. Would love to connect.

During these hard times, spending a few minutes here on the fediverse, feeling the closeness of people I don't even know and who live somewhere on this planet probably far from here, reading your toots, laughing, crying or getting angry with you makes me feel that much less lonely..

Thank you!

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.

Interestingly, the Fediverse already has a decentralized equivalent to https://plc.directory .

On the Fediverse it is where a Fediverse ID:

＠joeblow＠example·com

Is resolved using WebFinger:

https;//example·com/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:joeblow＠example·com

Which points you to the activity page:

https;//example·com/users/joeblow

Which returns the activity actor JSON-LD.

(BTW, plc.directory also returns JSON-LD)

Many have hoped that Bluesky decentralizes DID-PLC & https://plc.directory , or replace it with something decentralized.

And, I do think the Bluesky founders want to fix this — "plc" is short for "placeholder" after all.

But, it isn't decentralized yet.

Interestingly...

One of the places where many are hoping Bluesky and the ATmosphere improves is — DID-PLC.

DID-PLC and the centralized server https://plc.directory are at the core of what identity on Bluesky and the ATmosphere is based on.

Unfortunately it is centralized — which is a problem if you are trying to build a decentralized social-networking platform.

My posts on Mastodon say that no one is permitted to quote-boosts my posts — yet I never made that choice.

(I'm actually OK with others quote-boosting my posts.)

I know enough to be aware this.
Most aren't.

A very large number of people have no idea that someone else made this choice for them.

I suspect the vast majority of them would have chosen the opposite.

I think Mastodon should have represented "user has not chosen" in the JSON-LD.
