The new Loops app is brat.

Trust me, it will be worth the wait 😘

You may notice the Follow button on Loops.video is clickable even when logged-out.

I added a modal that explains how to remote follow, isn't that neat?

#loops #tikTok #activityPub #fediverse

What a feeling...

Finally seeing federated interactions with loops.video content 🥹

I promised this nearly a year ago, and it's now here.

The new Loops app is even better, stay tuned 🚀

icymi, in the Matrix State of the Union they said they didn't plan on pursuing decentralized social media, but they do hope to make it easier for those ecosystems to use Matrix so they don't have to reinvent what Matrix has already done

I’m setting up the ActivityPub Fuzzer. What’s not clear to me is whether or not this thing can run over localhost on two different ports or whether a proxy is required.

#activitypub

After starting the work on the conformance suite for the #GoActivityPub storage backends I, of course, got the nasty surprise that none of the existing ones are actually passing all the tests. :D

#ActivityPub

#askFedi Does anybody know if there is an #ActivityPub software that *produces* multilingual objects leveraging the contentMap feature?

Quick question to all #activitypub and #atproto experts:

Would it theoretically be possible to host a web server + database that serves both as an AP server as well as a PDS for atproto? 🤔

#fediverse #indieweb

Fediverse Report 139 - this week's #fediverse news:

- on how the environment and context in which the fediverse, bluesky and the open social web exist is changing and getting more intertwined with politics
- some thoughts on the recent FediForum keynote by @benWerd I/O
- new #activitypub projects being funded by @nlnet

https://connectedplaces.online/reports/fediverse-report-139/

Been thinking about fediverse wiki after @2chanhaeng초무 mentioned it today. Some ideas:

• Cross-instance page linking: [[Page Title@other-instance.wiki]]
• Edit pages on other instances with your home account
• Fork pages across instances: [[Page@instance-a.wiki]] → [[Page@instance-b.wiki]], sharing edit history up to the fork point

• Merge forked pages later when needed

The fork/merge model feels natural for federated collaboration. Thoughts?

✅ Onboarding
✅ Auth (with 2FA support/switch account)
✅ In-app registration

The new Loops app is almost ready for you ✨

#loops #loopsDev #tikTok #fediverse #activityPub

You read it. You listened to it. You watched it. You thought it was great. You should boost it and not need to think about what service to use to do that. You also shouldn't have to think of a clever post to link to it with. Every bit of digital work should have #ActivityPub built in.

#SocialWeb

I will be posting more updates @bonfire, and thanks to #activitypub you can follow those updates from here following this account

@ccamara@sandbox.openscience.networkCarlos Cámara

This wasn't mentioned yesterday, because I thought it was implied, but this work being done under the #NLNet aegis, the completion of any of the milestones I have planned will bring a monetary remuneration.

Dear @gotosocial users: we see you, even though you can't see us! 🥲

Well, you can see this account. But any accounts hosted on https://encyclia.pub aren't visible to you.

The way we use @fedifyFedify: ActivityPub server framework, the ActivityPub framework that powers our connections, uncovers some issues in the code. Curious fedi developers can find details here: https://github.com/fedify-dev/fedify/issues/473

Attempts at workarounds have sadly been fruitless, so please join us in waiting for a fix in Fedify. ❤️‍🩹

#GoToSocial #ActivityPub #Fediverse

I'm excited to show off #Atlas - a social mapping server for the #Fediverse. In about two weeks, we've gone from crazy on I70 to a fledgling app that lets me annotate any location on the globe and share it over #ActivityPub

There's still a lot to do. But there's enough here for me to ask for your help. I would love to hear what you think of this short video, and to start talking to everyone out there who's interested in making maps on the Fediverse.

https://clip.place/w/4JHMF5FQoZw58UPwL6BLyv

On this topic, calling all #Go #developers interested in lending a hand.

I have two major goals for increasing the unit-test coverage in the individual packages that #GoActivityPub is comprised of.

These are tasks that are very accessible even for people new to the #ActivityPub spec and I would prefer to support new developers that want to give it a try than wait until I have time to do them myself.

The only requirement I have is that if you want to help, you already have some public Go projects that I can have a look at.

Point of contact is on this email (after you "deobfuscate" it): goap＠federated·id

#Go #Golang #developers #helpwanted #NLNet #ngi0

People criticized my decision to delay releasing Loops source. I made the right call.

With everything now public, admins + devs running the beta are loving it.

"Loops federation is working very good btw!" - @tranktenTrankten

"(the app) looks very nice and smooth rn" - @Skivling

Took 3 app iterations + 2 backend rewrites 😅

Proud of what we've built together.

The best is yet to come, and it's going to be insane ❤️

Mastodon 4.4.8 has been released.

Additionally, Mastodon 4.5 BETA 2 has also been released.

https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases

#Fediverse #Mastodon #ActivityPub

Anyone have experience using #Snac2 for a small activitypub instance? Currently I use #gotosocial which is great but I'm curious about other options. Running a second instance with a different domain for friends or a second account is appealing to me.

#selfhosting #activitypub

I wish fedi would add some explicit content warning tags for things like NSFW, violence and politics etc and people can set in options to block posts with them.

I'd rather NSFW didn't show up in my timeline at all than having to tell my #ADHD brain not to press the shiny button.

Meet Loops — a new, federated TikTok alternative that’s open-source and self-hosted.

Every movement begins with a spark.

Loops is that spark — breaking down the walls built around creativity and replacing them with doors anyone can open, explore, and build upon.

Join us and spread the word!

@TheDailyBurbleCabbidges, happy to help.

Another cool feature of #XMPP are "gateways" that make it relatively easy to connect with other IMs.
e.g.
#Libervia to #ActivityPub and #email (CC @Goffi )

https://nlnet.nl/project/Libervia
https://libervia.org

#Slidge to all sorts of other IM like #Matrix, #Mattermost, #Steam, #Discord, #Whatsapp, FB … (CC @nicoco )

It’s not finished. It’s not perfect. But it’s real. 🥹

Loops is now open, built in public, and growing every day — laying the groundwork for a future where you can build your own TikTok.

A future where governments can’t censor you. Where corporations can’t control the conversation. Where the social web belongs to the people again.

This is how it starts. ✊

This is how the new Loops app Notifications screen looks like.

Notice the lack of webfinger addresses, and the instant action buttons like Reply and Like?

All of these notifications are from remote accounts, but we hide the complexity of federation and only show the relevant details.

Pretty cool eh?

#loops #tiktok #activityPub #loopsDev

Someone help me out here, I remember at some point visiting a decentralized site for cataloging, reviewing, and sharing fave #movies, #books, #music etc. don’t remember if it was part of the #fediverse or #activitypub tho. Does anyone know what I’m thinking of?

Can I use #Peertube and #Lemmy and other #ActivityPub services using my #Mastodon account?

Or do I need an account for every additional service I want to interact with?

@reiver@reiver ⊼ (Charles)

Yes, as a starting point, that's what I thought as well. Just if there already would have been sinething, I wouldn't try and reinvent the wheel.

One issue with blindly adopting #h-resume is, that in an #ActivityPub context, you usually don't just state "here is my resume", but also e.g. "I have a new job", which then is an update to your resume. A use case, that never existed for h-resume.

So there's still work to do. But it's definitively a good start.

where would you expect quotes to show up in #WordPress ?

#fediverse #activitypub

https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/09/introducing-quote-posts/

Is there already an ActivityPub vocabulary for job openings, or cvs?

I'm trying to make my CV-webpage more visible, and also create a job-bot, that everyone can set up with their sources, and queries.

Obviously the idea is, to help people find jobs, and fill vacancies, without having to resort to a centralized network, like e.g. LinkedIn.

I'm aware of these efforts, though they're not ActivityPub related:
https://microformats.org/wiki/job-listing
https://microformats.org/wiki/h-resume

#ActivityPub #job #CV #LinkedIn

Like, how might we build a recursively complete self-governing protocol? #fediverse #activitypub

Could we build a governance protocol, something like Loomio, on top of ActivityPub? I’m thinking of a way to do federated governance. #fediverse #activitypub

#ActivityPub project idea - Note-ify server that turns any activity into a Create/Note. So you can follow username%40domain.example@noteify.example and any activities that username@domain.example creates are converted to Note objects and passed along.

I spoke about #WordPress and #ActivityPub and had some great questions from a very engaged crowd.

I especially appreciated getting to discuss with @obenlandKonstantin Obenland’s and @evanEvan Prodromou about the ecosystem and which parts could use some refinements.

All in all it’s left me wanting to continue contributing to the convergence of the ecosystems.

@evanwolfPhil Wolff

More like an extension based off of the specs that is less likely to only lead to protocol decay and whack-a-mole development. On the basis that the current specs are too flexible. #ActivityPub is de facto a protocol framework. An extension can be the protocol with more rigor, and help ease solution development on top of that with yet more composable extensions.

W3C specs give us conceptually 'addressible actors that exchange activities with object payload'. That's powerful.

✨📸 Vernissage 1.25.0 is now available!
This update introduces several new features and improvements:

- Added Licenses management (API + settings pages)
- New "Supporter" tag for users
- "Administrator" and "Moderator" badges on profiles
- Fixed issue with max image limit in posts
- Refactored settings update endpoint
- Adjusted trending content limits and resolved SQL issue

#Vernissage #ActivityPub #Photography

#ActivityPub specs are basis for spec compliance.

Current fediverse is a mixture of flavors. Mastodon is a flavor. The #FEP is a recipe cookbook for particularly flavored meals.

The fedi as it is today will never offer a home to anything that does not in some way represent a timeline with flowing texts, even if masquerading in more creative UI's. Every specialist (not really, just different-than-microblogging) domain auto-excludes itself to live in the fringes of fedi. Just by being different.

There are simple services that exist that — when a user fills-out & submits a <form> on the Web that simple service e-mails someone that data.

These simple services are alternatives to more complex back-end with a database.

An alternative to this alternative could be — instead of e-mailing someone the submitted data, send that data via the Fediverse using ActivityPub.

ActivityPub them. (Can “ActivityPub” be a verb‽)

Probably as a private DM.
