@user
works on all fediverse platforms, but !community
does not
i was proposing for this to be a possible solution to make it work across all existing platforms w/o requiring all the other platforms to support lemmy’s system
if using lemmy, it could automatically make this change
this would primarily be used by other fedi platforms to easily differentiate community & users
eg if i followed @sc07@group.toast.ooo
on mastodon it would for sure follow [email protected] and not @[email protected] (an account with the same identifier)
but if you search a community up on another fedi platform, it won’t always pick the community or the user (if they have the same name)
as far as the other platforms know, there’s one actor but points to two different accounts
afaik the webfinger spec doesn’t allow for multiple actors having the same identifier, like how lemmy does it (here’s what gets returned when a username matches a community and user)
how I was thinking about it the instance owners would pick the subdomain the communities would be placed on, everything would still route through the main host but external interactions (like following a community) would be routed through the subdomain
eg for blahaj.zone’s lemmy instance it could be setup as users sending in @lemmy.blahaj.zone
and communities ending in @group.lemmy.blahaj.zone
or something like that
not every community would have it’s own subdomain, no
community actors would just have the hostname part be a different domain eg
users:
@UserA@toast.ooo
@UserB@toast.ooo
communities:
@CommunityA@group.toast.ooo
@CommunityB@group.toast.ooo
It appears that proton’s is only for them and they don’t offer it to other websites unfortunately
Could you link to what instance it’s hosted on? (Eg !casualconversation@)
hackliberty.org still links to it, although it returns a service unavailable, so it looks unmaintained
Also the most recent forum post is about how covid is a hoax
Having a name for a version would be nice for each major release (1.0.0 would have a name but 1.x.x wouldn’t, but 2.0.0 would, etc)
Like 10 minutes ago the project was nuked by the owner
This is actually planned, which is what intrigued me initially
turns out i linked the wrong page initially, here’s the page that fully describes the entire activitypub implementation they’re planning
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/architecture/blueprints/activity_pub/index.html
Yeah, unfortunately limited to self hosted installs for now, but here’s the details for it
Is there a progress tracker for codeberg’s federation? I’d like to keep up with that
I’m aiming to get a gitlab install running with the experimental option of ActivityPub support and I would love to have that work with codebergs’
ejabberd recently announced full matrix federation at the server level, so there’s hope
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for, sometimes I get a couple people together to binge watch a bunch of movies by X actor and we rank all the movies they were in
I’m watching two specific issues on this repo that would be very helpful for that use case
I’ve gone for colors for my servers and omelette ingredients for my VMs
For a bit now I’ve been thinking of starting a small classic style of forum, using the top forum software (to my knowledge at least — xenForo) and writing a custom extension for it to add ActivityPub to it
Idk, I’ve realized that I don’t have a whole lot of time to keep up with live chat communities (like Discord, etc) so I started throwing the forum idea around
that’s strange, you might want to contact your instance admins then
