What is Hackers' Pub?

Hackers' Pub is a place for software engineers to share their knowledge and experience with each other. It's also an ActivityPub-enabled social network, so you can follow your favorite hackers in the fediverse and get their latest posts in your feed.

`contentMap`タームについては、例えば日本語で1万文字程度の記事を7言語くらいに訳し分けるとして、本当にそれらを全て単一のオブジェクトに突っ込みたいのか? という感想がある

If you run a single user #GoToSocial instance, maybe you would like to get more toots about a specific subject in your timeline.
#FediBuzz relay could help you. You can subscribe to a specific hashtag fake-account and then receive toots it re-toots.

more info here https://relay.fedi.buzz/

For example, you can follow @tag-gotosocial#gotosocial

「めちゃくちゃ」も「めちゃ」も今は全く使われてないらしいですわよ……
なんならちょっと前にもにじみすのどなたかに「めちゃってどういう意味ですか?」みたいなこと聞かれたことがあっ……

대학생활 조언이랄 건 없는데 졸업하고 회사다니면 이제 내가 쓸 수 있는 시간이 하루에 2~3시간밖에 없는, 그마저도 지쳐서 쓰러져있는데 한 30분은 써야하는 쓰레기같은 생활이 기다리고 있기 때문에 놀든 공부하든 후회없이 열심히 하면 좋겠어요. 그냥 제가 지금 인생이 그렇게 갈려나가고있는게 화나서 쓴거에요 다시 대학생 하고싶다

Every now and then when my blog gets attention, *especially* when the "How Decentralized Is Bluesky Really" post came out, you get a bunch of people complaining that the site looks like it was designed 20 years ago (it was)

@mkljczkmikołajczyk, podobno made a "more modern version" of my blog mkljczk.pl/uploads/how-decentr

Compare to the original dustycloud.org/blog/how-decent

Big step up!

I've been wrestling with implementing content support in Hackers' Pub, our -powered platform for software engineers.

While ActivityPub theoretically supports multilingual content through the contentMap property, the reality is that most server implementations (Mastodon, Misskey, etc.) don't properly handle this content as of April 2025. This creates a significant challenge for us.

We want our users to share their knowledge in multiple languages, but we need to ensure compatibility with existing ActivityPub servers. I'm considering several approaches:

  1. Creating separate posts for each language with clear language indicators, linking them through inReplyTo relationships (so translations appear as replies to the original post)
  2. Using the primary language in content while storing translations in contentMap
  3. Adding "View in other languages" links at the bottom of each post
  4. Implementing inline language dividers that degrade gracefully on non-supporting servers, for example:
    <div lang="en">
      <h3>English</h3>
      <p>This is the English content…</p>
    </div>
    <hr>
    <div lang="ko">
      <h3>한국어</h3>
      <p>한국어 내용입니다…</p>
    </div>

I'm leaning toward a hybrid approach—showing content in the user's preferred language when possible while providing easy access to other language versions.

Has anyone tackled this problem effectively? I'd love to hear about your experiences or ideas for making multilingual content work well in the fediverse, especially when dealing with server implementations that don't fully support ActivityPub's multilingual features.
