Anyone building a federated Stack Overflow?

#activityPub #stackOverflow

Yay! My #Flipboard account is federating: @darnell

Like #Threads & #Ghost, Flipboard is beta testing #ActivityPub on its main site.

I believe Flipboard will prove to be a counterweight to Threads and a prime location for news & pundits (as #Meta does not really desire the latter two on their platforms).

New #introduction time:

👋 Hey, I've been here on the Fedi for the last 7 years.

Founding member of @weareopencoop working at the intersection of #learning, #technology & #community.

Was PM of #MoodleNet, a decentralised digital commons built on #ActivityPub from 2018-2020 which has morphed into @bonfire, a federated app toolkit.

Wrote doctoral thesis on #digitalliteracies. Was on Mozilla's #OpenBadges team & led #WebLiteracy work.

Pursuing MSc in #SystemsThinking

I like 🏔️🥃⚽

Ghost has some exciting news in their latest #ActivityPub progress update:

"The other thing we're now working full-speed towards is open sourcing the new ActivityPub Service GitHub repository. That means the code will be available for anyone and everyone to see, use, follow-along-with, or contribute-to."

This is dope! Looking forward to tracking the development live 👀

I made a slide to communicate the power and benefit of decentralizing walled gardens via open standards. Feel free to use this if helpful.

Hello, Fediverse!

We just shipped NeoDB 0.10 , with revamped i18n support and other features. A dedicated project site is also up: https://neodb.net

If you haven't heard about #NeoDB , it's basically Goodreads+ Letterboxd + RateYourMusic + Podchaser, all in one place, #opensource, powered up with #ActivityPub, plus microblogging, like #Mastodon and its apps.

Love to hear your thoughts, and if you find this project useful, or think someone else may think so, please help boost!

My first post on @pixelfed — it’s awesome to see it pop up in my #Mastodon feed, it feels like magic.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the #Fediverse and #ActivityPub
✨🌳✨

I tweaked the #ActivityPub inbox endpoints of my #WordPress site a bit and was able to follow my blog on #Flipboard ❤️

If you’re at all interested in the future of how people could discover, enjoy and pay for great content in the #fediverse and the broader web, this episode of #DotSocial is for you.

Here @johnonolan and I go deep on the product, technical and business model mechanics that will ultimately support a more sustainable, social web thanks to Ghost’s upcoming full integration of #ActivityPub.

Listen to this episode wherever you get your podcasts or watch it on our #PeerTube instance at https://flipboard.video/w/sQCNmXx332xi3Y3dVVjd37

What's the biggest thing that makes you hesitant to use #Fedify, an #ActivityPub server framework?

Hello fediverse!

This morning we shipped an exciting new version of #Flipboard that enables *anyone* on Flipboard to follow *anyone* in the fediverse.

This is the culmination of a ton of work to deeply integrate #ActivityPub into the product. The result is incredibly seamless.

Just tap on the search icon in Flipboard and tap the follow button for anyone featured there or that you find in search. You’ll soon start seeing their posts in all of your relevant Flipboard feeds.

👀 BrowserPub: A browser for exploring #ActivityPub and the ⁂fediverse

Hello fediverse!

I need your help to feature all of the amazing services that are part of the #ActivityPub realm.

What are some of your favorite ActivityPub handles to follow on #Funkwhale, #Peertube, #Pixelfed, #Bookwyrm, #Wordpress, #Truefans, #Castopod, #Akkoma, #Friendica, #Lemmy and others?

Your replies will be categorized by @jejord, @AileenLalor, @miaq and @marci so that we can feature these accounts to our Flipboard users and work to ensure they render properly on Flipboard.

I'm excited to help evangelize the many great projects here and advocate for their adoption and funding.

Is there any standardized #spec for #Misskey-style quotes?

#ActivityPub #fedidev

Hello, I'm an open source software engineer in my late 30s living in #Seoul, #Korea, and an avid advocate of #FLOSS and the #fediverse.

I'm the creator of @fedify, an #ActivityPub server framework in #TypeScript, and @hollo, a fediverse microblog for single users.

I'm also very interested in East Asian languages (so-called #CJK) and #Unicode. Feel free to talk to me in #English, #Korean (#한국어), or #Japanese (#日本語), or even in Literary Chinese (#文言文/#漢文)!

#introduction

📣 It's been a while since we've federated a batch of publishers — so to make up for it, here are 250, and they're big ones.

Today, we're bringing names like @abc, @RollingStone, @forbes, @BleacherReport, @NationalGeographic and @newyorktimes to the fediverse. They join the 174 profiles we've already federated, which include everyone from @19thnews to @Vox

Here's a blogpost with more details on this latest batch of publications that cover news, business, cooking, home design, politics, sports, science and more. Follow their Magazine feeds if you're only interested in one topic, or their whole profiles if you want the lot. The spreadsheet below lists out all federated accounts.

Looks like #Fedify v1.0.0 will be released this week! Is there anything you'd like to see added or fixed before then?

#fedidev #ActivityPub

“Some folks have gotten themselves together as something they’re calling the Social Web Foundation, and I’ll cut to the chase: this is an attempt by #ActivityPub partisans to rebrand the confusing “fediverse” terminology, and in the process, regardless of intent, shit on everything else that’s been the social web going back twenty-five years.”

https://bix.blog/posts/holy-hell-the-social-web-did-not-begin-in-2008

While they’re harsh words, I hope @swf will receive this earnest feedback with grace and reconsider its positioning accordingly.

The fediverse is a strange place to be sometimes. It's an open network where progress happens in fits and starts in random, often hidden, pockets. And the rest don't often hear what's really going on. In the 6 years I've built on #ActivityPub, we've all had to fight for some kind of coordination.

Especially re: the new #SocialWebFoundation (which I've backed as an outside supporter via my tiny company @write_as), you can see something new is happening.
