I am creating a #ActivityPub minimalistic implementation of a badge system similar to Credly, built using #dotnet and leveraging the #Fediverse
I have issued a first badge, the idea is to decentralize the verification systems, and allow organizations to self-certify. It is incredible that organizations like Microsoft or Non-Profits pay thousands of dollars to companies like Pearson to just provide "verified" badges. Similar to mastodons installed in social-dot-something, thinkg of badges<dot> mozilla<dot>com , certifications<dot>myschooldistrict<dot>com. Or even a podcast emitting a badge for its guests, with the verification in the domain.
ActivityPub already offers a secure way to sign artifacts and interact between actors. The fediverse already have people with profiles, a social graph as @mike says, ready to use. Think of how LetsEncrypt disrupted that market of few actors selling certificates for websites.
I have a functional poc,
@fediverse is not a mastodon, pledora or blog, it is an actor in a badge system, but you can follow it in Mastodon. Its badges will show in #mastodon but they are not notes or articles. If you want to learn more, follow me, I will be sharing the progress here. Or follow the github project here: https://github.com/tryvocalcat/activitypub-badges
Who wants a badge of early adopter?

A couple of years back I wrote a blog post about linking my static blog posts to Mastodon threads so that the threads can serve as blog comments.
I realise I never pinned that post to my profile, and I have since deleted the Mastodon thread, so I'm sharing it again. I'm pinning it this time!
Forget ghost!
NodeBB is not only FLOSS, it's also a great federated forum software!
Just look up julian@community.nodebb.org
This is a profile on NodeBB but you can watch so many posts and if you select
"Open original page"
it will take you to the forum and make Mastodon and the fedi look nice!
I feel like NodeBB could be the next Mastodon!
It's amazing!

Good morning Fedi friends!
It's been 99 days since I started self-hosting my own Fediverse instances. Crazy how time flies!
I've been a bit absent from here this week because I started exploring the world of #PeerTube from the POV of a creator.
I just set up my own account on #MakerTube - so that I can write a guide that is accessible to many (as opposed to skipping this step and going straight to self-hosting).
Anyway, here is my PeerTube account: https://makertube.net/a/elena/video-channels
I have been able to follow it from #Mastodon and #Friendica without a problem, but I keep getting an error message when I try to subscribe with my #GoToSocial username. The exact message: "Cannot fetch information from this remote account." Does anybody have the same issue? (as in: people on GoToSocial, can you subscribe to PeerTube channels?)
Wishing you all a lovely day 🌞
P.S.: about to go offline for the rest of the day because... there's no pre-school in France on Wednesdays and the garderie keeps my little one up until 12:30. So apologies in advance if I'm slow to reply to messages.

Lange habe ich #Mastodon mit Posts und Blogposts über die eskalierende #Wasserkrise als Folge der #Klimakatastrophe „genervt“. Nicht nur steigende Temperaturen, sondern die Veränderungen der Wasserkreisläufe würden die Gebirgsregionen treffen.
Nun meldet auch die Stuttgarter Zeitung 🗞️ (22.03.2025, Seite 5): „Gletscherschmelze bedroht Wasserversorgung im Land. Die Landeswasserversorgung (LW) warnt vor Engpässen bei der Trinkwasserversorgung.“ Ja, genau! 😢🔥🇩🇪🇪🇺 https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/warum-der-sueddeutsche-gebirgsraum-besonders-stark-unter-der-klima-und-wasserkrise-leidet/#comment-169526
Does anyone know where Mastodon admins hang out online?
I'd like to get better at tuning and running my instance, but I'm reaching the limit of how far I can get pulling at web searches. I'm running into some "Why does that tool do that" questions that are hard to sort out.
Good Day people of #Fediverse I dont understand how some people can be so cruel? Hurting People, Cruel to Animals etc.
😢💔 I hope everyone will have a nice weekend!
I definetely need help tbh, If there's anyone kind to help out 🥺🙏🏻
#Mastodon my friend @skelders333 is still in dire need, and things are getting worse as there hase been no movement at all
If you have spoons, can you grab this flyer and share it around?
If you don't have that many spoons can you #Boost
If you have financial security as in a roof and food that is mostly dependent on YOUR labor which provides income can you contribute?

If you want to, you can set your Mastodon account into follow request mode, so that any follows you get from other people have to be manually approved by you. Here's how to do it:
➡️ https://fedi.tips/restricting-who-can-follow-you-in-mastodon
When you do this, a little padlock 🔒 will appear on your profile.
When you receive a follow request, your server website or app will let you know and you can click ✔️ or ❌ depending on whether you approve or deny the request.
If you block a server using the "domain block" feature on Mastodon, this will cause you to lose any follows or followers you have on that server. The exact number of follows/followers you would lose are shown at the top of the warning when you do the block.
However, if you have done the block accidentally or if you have changed your mind about the block, here is a guide to how you can unblock the server and restore your follows and followers:
