Fediverse

@julian Yeah thanks for quicker and more simple setup process as well, Discourse was not simple to get running on a janky network like mine.

@joel@gts.tumfatig.net I am on NodeBB, and it parses the Markdown if sent, but uses the HTML more or less as-is (with sanitization for safety). So — yes. I can also see your italics <img class=“not-responsive emoji” src=“https://activitypub.space/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f604.png?v=03884acde30” title=“” />

Bonfire has just released a new version, which includes initial support for Mastodon API endpoints (interested how this will work, as Bonfire has sooo many more post control options) And…initial work on an ActivityPub C2S API! https://bonfirenetworks.org/posts/bonfire-1-0-1-building-momentum/#ActivityPub #Fediverse #Bonfire

@SimonTB @javahippie no fosdem for me unfortunately. Keep an eye out for the first commits. Still mulling over a testing strategy that is manageable and not too complex.

@julian yes. BadgeFed has an API. But the concept is really simple, it is a Note (or Document) that has an attachment. The attachment is a property of the ActivityPub object usually used for videos or images. In this case the attachment includes a full OpenBadge object.The only restriction is that the Note attributed (activitypub actor) MUST be the url in the OpenBadge issuer (issuer = actor). Also the recipient url from the OpenBadge SHOULD be mentioned in the Note.With this simple mechanism you can pretty much create a compatible badge that can be decentralized with BadgeFed.

@ricferrer if it works maybe only some account.

@stegodon wow

@schoenswetter @jnrs @stadtteilzentrum benutzt ihr beide die neuste version vom plugin? 7.8.5?

@mike Oops; I'll throw another post out this afternoon about it and include the tag. Don't know why I didn't think of that.

@jankamensky Hey Jan, den Brief würde ich gerne in unser #DIDaySupportCommunity teilen und ggf. dann auch für eigene Aktionen nutzen oder zumindest darauf aufmerksam machen. Darf ich?Wir (momentan ca. 140 Personen) versuchen, möglichst viele Menschen weg von #BigTech und rein ins #Fediverse zu locken. Dazu haben wir vor allem Multiplikatoren (Influencer, Medien, Institutionen) im Blick. Gerne würde ich dem ein oder anderen diesen charmanten Brief als Anregung mitgeben

@Lou Welcome to the neighbourhood!

@Vicky Welcome to the Fediverse, Vicki! As a fellow Texan, I don't envy your explainer position. But I appreciate your patient efforts on our behalf. They say you never feel more Texan than when you're abroad or away from home. I'm glad that you're there to represent the rational Texas of Ann Richards, Beto O'Rourke, & Willie Nelson that we plan to take back very soon.

@defrisselle We've noticed 3 attempts by accounts trying to spread deepfakes and suspended them.For now no new attempts, but it's better to be prepared to act.
