The Fediverse is so cool. The interoperability of ActivityPub rewards you for browsing other instances, creating server-side and personal connections differently from how we were taught to browse the social web.
Currently I'm trying to figure out the most optimal way to share content around the Fediverse, from Peertube to Mastodon in particular. How it works is a bit weird.

If I were to host my own ActivityPub-compatible site featuring my train videos between 15 seconds up to ~10 minutes, should I use #PeerTube or #Loops?

Help me weigh the pros-cons and your experiences, though I may end up trying both anyway.

Hello, Fediverse 👋

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

I've seen an ongoing debate between "Note" versus "Article" in ActivityPub / ActivityStreams.

When is something a "Note"‽
When is something an "Article"‽

Personally — I would probably have made the distinction this way.

An "Article" has a title.
A "Note" doesn't have a title.

(In ActivityPub / ActivityStreams, a 'title' seems to tend to get represented in the "name" field.)

I’m no longer funded to work on #Fediverse stuff and won’t be able to attend this, but I know last year’s FediCon event was great and I hope a good, international cross-section of the community and developers are able to meet there this year!

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!

PieFed 1.7.9 includes Anubis-like scraper blocking AI scrapers have been hammering fediverse servers for years with things getting especially intense lately. Fediverse developers have been slow to respond with solutions so desperate instance admins have been bolting on Anubis which is fragile and really hard to configure in a way that doesn’t break federation, mobile clients or web UI access. Anubis forces browsers to run some CPU-heavy javascript for a few seconds, increasing the cost to scrapers hopefully to the point where they go elsewhere instead. PieFed now includes that functionality as a core feature, not a separate container, proxy or process that needs to be set up. Just set the ANOOBIS environment variable and you’re done. Yes, that spelling is intentional. The amount of work a client needs to do can be tuned with the ANOOBIS_DIFFICULTY_DESKTOP and ANOOBIS_DIFFICULTY_MOBILE environment variables - the defaults are quite weak. Early results are very promising and a 50% CPU and network reduction on the server is commonly seen. Clients that are not logged in will see a brief loading screen, once every 1000 days, before being taken to the post they were trying to view. I’m sure this isn’t the end of this war but I’ve been enjoying a respite from it for the last week, long may it continue. (Image supplied by @dosdude@retrofed.com, thank you!) Page · piefed.social

#pppdev project will be about creating collections and pins inside of them which can be either a link,an image or a simple note.Im thinking about how to call these two entities. Right now its Collection and Pin but Pin suggests that maybe it should be Board instead of collection? On the other hand, calling them Pins dont allow us to use "Pin it to the top" terminology - which set of names is better in your opinion? Or maybe something entirely else.I guess are.na uses Collection/Block #fediverse

The Fediverse is so cool because of the diversity of the different software. In the last weeks, I did build a (completely?) new one. The Menuverse consists of two software: 1) create daily changing dishes like in a canteen, and 2) can aggregate different of this actors in a marketplace. The working title for this is Menuverse.
Every canteen is Fediverse actor and not only can these marketplaces subscribe to this, but also other softwares like Mastodon, Misskey and so on.
I created a demo setup with live data from different university canteens here:
https://mahlzeitheute.de/ This is the marketplace software)
(The data and frontend is currently only in German).
You can also visit or follow the nearest canteen to me here: @fl-ca1.

You can find the full software here: https://codeberg.org/54GradSoftware/menuverse
But please note that this still quite experimental and I would not advise running in production (unsupervised).

I would love to get (technical) feedback, and I'm looking for real canteens who would like to test the software.

More information in the next posts (this is a thread). [1/4]

After about twelve hours, the same post had received more than 300 shares and likes on Mastodon, while it had only been shared three times and liked four times on BlueSky.

I'm no social media expert, but it's amazing how reluctant people are to use Mastodon because of its lack of reach and interaction.

If we bring more people here, the Fediverse could become the de facto public square.
