<p>🎉 Huge shoutouts to two amazing contributors from Korea's <a href="/tags/ossca/" rel="tag">#OSSCA</a> program who just made <a href="/tags/fedify/" rel="tag">#Fedify</a> even better!</p><p>First, <span class="h-card"><a href="https://hackers.pub/@z9mb1" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>z9mb1</span></a></span> delivered <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/pull/321" rel="nofollow">PR #321</a>, adding a handy -o/--output option to fedify lookup. Now you can save lookup results directly to files instead of just printing to terminal—a nice quality-of-life improvement for analysis and scripting workflows.</p><p>But the real showstopper is <span class="h-card"><a href="https://hackers.pub/@joonnot" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>joonnot</span></a></span>'s incredible <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/pull/283" rel="nofollow">PR #283</a>, which introduces the brand new @fedify/testing package! This massive contribution (2,014 lines across 20 files) brings MockFederation and MockContext classes that completely transform how we test federated applications. No more complex setups or actual network requests—just clean, straightforward unit testing with activity tracking, inbox simulation, and queue-aware testing capabilities.</p><p>These contributions solve real pain points and showcase the amazing talent emerging from the OSSCA program. Both features will be available in the upcoming Fedify 1.8 release. The future of federated software development just got a lot brighter! 🚀</p><p><a href="/tags/activitypub/" rel="tag">#ActivityPub</a> <a href="/tags/fedidev/" rel="tag">#fedidev</a> <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#fediverse</a> <a href="/tags/opensource/" rel="tag">#opensource</a></p>

<p>We'd like to recognize some excellent contributions from our <a href="/tags/ossca/" rel="tag">#OSSCA</a> (Open Source Contribution Academy) participants who have been working on <a href="/tags/fedify/" rel="tag">#Fedify</a>.</p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://yuri.garden/@gaebalgom" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>gaebalgom</span></a></span> contributed <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/pull/339" rel="nofollow">PR #339</a>, which introduces the @fedify/elysia package to provide <a href="https://elysiajs.com/" rel="nofollow">Elysia</a> integration for Fedify. This work addresses <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/issues/286" rel="nofollow">issue #286</a> by creating a plugin that enables developers using <a href="/tags/bun/" rel="tag">#Bun</a> and <a href="/tags/elysia/" rel="tag">#Elysia</a> to integrate Fedify's <a href="/tags/activitypub/" rel="tag">#ActivityPub</a> capabilities into their applications. The contribution includes the core integration module, documentation, examples, and proper monorepo configuration, making Fedify accessible to the Elysia community.</p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://hackers.pub/@r4bb1t" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>r4bb1t</span></a></span> submitted <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/pull/315" rel="nofollow">PR #315</a>, implementing comprehensive <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortSignal" rel="nofollow">AbortSignal</a> support across multiple APIs to resolve <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/issues/51" rel="nofollow">issue #51</a>. This contribution adds request cancellation capabilities not only to lookupWebFinger() but also to lookupObject(), DocumentLoader, and the HTTP signature authentication flow (doubleKnock()), allowing developers to properly handle timeouts and abort ongoing requests throughout the entire request chain. The implementation includes extensive test coverage for cancellation scenarios across all affected components and lays the groundwork for <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/issues/258" rel="nofollow">adding --timeout options to various CLI commands like fedify lookup</a>, fedify webfinger, and fedify nodeinfo, making federated applications more robust and responsive.</p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://hackers.pub/@ooheunda" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>ooheunda</span></a></span> addressed a testing infrastructure issue with <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/pull/350" rel="nofollow">PR #350</a>, fixing a race condition in PostgreSQL message queue tests that was causing intermittent failures (<a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/issues/346" rel="nofollow">issue #346</a>). By adding explicit initialization before concurrent message queue listeners, this fix prevents table creation conflicts that were affecting test reliability, ensuring more consistent PR testing for all contributors.</p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://hackers.pub/@songbirds" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>songbirds</span></a></span> provided two test stability improvements with <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/pull/344" rel="nofollow">PR #344</a> and <a href="https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/pull/347" rel="nofollow">PR #347</a>. The first PR adds skip guards to RedisKvStore tests as a workaround for a known Bun runtime issue, keeping the test suite functional while awaiting an upstream fix. The second PR resolves a race condition in the code generation process by randomizing output filenames, preventing conflicts during parallel test execution. These contributions help maintain a stable testing environment for the project.</p><p>Thank you all for your contributions to Fedify.

<p>We’ve improved ActivityPub support in WordPress to make fediverse sharing smoother and more engaging—images in comments that use img tags from your media library are now properly attached, so followers on other platforms see them inline. You’ll also notice easier following: see who you already follow and follow others back with one click. Multibyte text like Greek or Japanese is now handled more reliably in post summaries.</p>
