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.

Not me starting a new side project while Pixelfed users feel left out, but this will benefit and be coming to Pixelfed too!

I'm in a unique position to leverage FediDB data with the Activity Intent FEP and implement support in Loops and Pixelfed.

It's pretty much done already too, just need to setup the CDN and redesign a few pages

"When you empower a couple, you allow them to build a family. When you empower families, you allow them to build a community. When you guarantee a fundamental minimum income, you’re providing a foundation for those connections between us to grow and thrive, and that is the incredible power and value of community that we will unlock. That is what we’re investing in. Each other." rgmii.org/blog/welcome-to-rgmi

Some say other protocols have bigger budgets and are better at marketing.

I say: the Fediverse - by the people, for the people - has passionate advocates who use their talents to promote it, often without any financial incentives. It comes from the heart.

Before FOSDEM I asked my friend @sturmsuchtChris 🦑 - a super talented photographer - if he'd consider bringing his professional camera to take photos of speakers in the Social Web devroom. He did... and so did I.

Imagine sharing a link to your fediverse account to someone not on the fediverse, hoping they follow you.

Now imagine instead that the link you share takes them to a beautiful yet simple landing page that carefully guides them to the ideal platform, geographically closest, and helps them through the onboarding process, recommends the best desktop/mobile client and then follows you from their new account.

Stop dreaming. I'm building this. Wanna help?

@panos well, ActivityPub lets anyone address anyone else on the Fediverse. You can even address collections of people, like my following list or someone else's contacts collection. The choices that are allowed in the Mastodon interface are a small subset of who you could actually address with ActivityPub.

因為今日都係播廣東舊歌,佢又問下我呢首詞邊個寫,大家討論下兩個偉文當打之年嘅風格。

佢問我點分別兩個人嘅詞,我話Wyman嘅字嘅POV少啲委屈自己,所以佢會寫「你沒有好結果」,但夕爺嘅字係寧願痛自己都唔想搞到人地又或者怕自己騷擾到人,所以佢會寫「多我這個不多 我太好心還是太傻」。

至於鍾意邊個嘅詞多啲,係睇聽眾嘅性格,個人愚見,配得感低嘅人會易啲喺夕爺嘅詞入面搵到共鳴。

@mellifluousboxFelix Hlatky I’m reminded of my early days at the Open Knowledge Foundation @okfnOpen Knowledge Foundation , first as a volunteer and later as an ambassador in Brazil.

After some time, I suggested forming a local group. Due to my involvement, I later worked as a consultant. A member of the core organization coordinated local leadership, supported ambassadors, and held open meetings periodically. That structure was important.

Out of that structure, I founded Open Knowledge Brasil @okbrOpen Knowledge Brasil , which I ran for years before moving to Europe. Being close to people with strong communication and advocacy skills was invaluable, that's where I learned the most.

Today, I see similar energy in the Fediverse, with accounts such as @FediTips and @mastodonmigration. There are also communication professionals, for example, @hpod16Hannah Grace runs a highly strategic account for the @EUCommissionEuropean Commission. Or people like @bjoernstaBjörn Staschen , leading the awesome campaign .

Resources may be limited, but there is clearly a passionate and capable community.
It might be worthwhile to find ways to involve and coordinate this existing expertise more intentionally.

@everton137 @mellifluousboxFelix Hlatky

It's not business attitudes that help Bluesky, it's the sheer amount of money and the promise to get this money back in the future by screwing their own users. This is not a model to be emulated, because the resources for it come from future exploitation of ordinary people.

If we want proper long term infratructure that serves the public instead of exploiting it, we need governments to invest in non-profit FOSS projects like Mastodon etc.

I started adding support for services and it looks like it's easier than I imagined it initially.

On the server side, implementing the proxyURL handler doesn't need any new additions as it shares 90% code with other handlers that return objects.

On the client side, I'm creating a new http.RoundTripper that can use the proxyURL transparently for the caller.

As a developer in your client code you only do a regular request for a remote URL, and the round-tripper handles the proxying part transparently if it has all the available bits: a server that supports proxyURL and a valid OAuth2 session towards that server.

Smithereen seems to be the only AP implementation that actually does the LD part of JSON-LD. I find broken contexts all. the. damn. time. By far the most common mistake people make is forgetting https://w3id.org/security/v1 in actors, which makes all the public-key-related stuff not have a namespace, which makes Smithereen think there isn't a public key, which is required for an actor.
