littleMesh addendum: readable handles and replaceable relays

Yesterday's post left one thing unsolved. Your littleMesh identity is your Ed25519 public key, which is great for security and terrible for a handle: nobody wants to type @alice@a1b2c3...52-characters....mesh.littlefedi.social, let alone read it out loud. And the lighthouse we mentioned, the relay that introduces you to the world, was baked into that identity too. Change relay, and you'd look like a different node.

We've been studying how to fix both, and we think we see a path.

The idea is a small signed directory sitting next to the mesh itself. You'd reserve a friendly alias, something like red-house.mesh.littlefedi.social, and your node would publish a signed record binding that alias to your node ID and to up to three lighthouses. Signed with the same mesh key you already have, no new identity, no new PKI. The record would carry a sequence number and an expiry, so nobody, not even the directory operator, could roll it back to an older version or serve a stale one past its time.

What we like about it is what it wouldn't change. Your handle would stay @alice@red-house.mesh.littlefedi.social, readable. Underneath, WebFinger would still resolve to your real actor ID, the one built from your node ID, exactly as today. And switching lighthouses, would just mean publishing an updated signed record. Same handle. Same actor ID. Nobody following you would notice anything happened.

The directory itself would stay deliberately weak in what it's trusted with. It couldn't produce a valid record for your node ID without your key, and every connection would still authenticate the node ID end to end, so even a malicious or compromised directory could deny service but never impersonate you.

We're building this over the next few days, opt-in, as an experiment. Once it's up, we want to see it survive a real follow exchange with stock Mastodon, snac and GoToSocial, and a lighthouse swap that doesn't touch the handle, before deciding whether it earns a permanent place in littleMesh or gets reworked. Worth trying, not yet worth trusting.

                                                We've been buried in littleFedi work lately, and there's one piece I want to talk about because it's the one I'm genuinely excited about: littleMesh.

                                                The problem is an old one. Federation assumes you have a domain, a public IP, an open port, a TLS certificate. Fine if you're renting a VPS somewhere. Not fine if your instance lives on a Raspberry Pi in your house, behind CGNAT, with an ISP that will never hand you a real IP address no matter how nicely you ask. Until now, that simply meant no federation for you. Full stop.

                                                littleMesh gets rid of that requirement entirely, without asking you to build any of the infrastructure above.

                                                On first run, your instance generates its own Ed25519 keypair. That key becomes your identity, no domain required, because your instance's address is derived straight from your public key, in the form .mesh.. Then your node opens an outbound connection to a "lighthouse", a small, publicly reachable relay, and registers itself there. Since the connection is outbound, it works from behind any NAT, any CGNAT, with zero port forwarding. The ISP never even notices.

                                                When someone wants to reach you, they ask the lighthouse to open a circuit. The lighthouse introduces both sides, you call back, and it splices the connection together, but it only ever sees encrypted bytes, never your actual traffic.
                                                Once the introduction is made, if you happen to have a reachable address after all, both sides skip the relay and talk directly. If not, the relay just keeps carrying you, quietly, in the background.

                                                And if you already run an instance with a real domain, you can still turn on littleMesh, purely to reach mesh-only instances. Your own identity doesn't change at all.

                                                There will be a default pair of community lighthouses, so you don't even need to find or run your own relay to get started, just say yes during littleFedi init and you're on the mesh.

                                                The fediverse shouldn't require you to be reachable. It should reach you.

We have another #AI agent / #bot that is sitting out here, scanning our messages, and has nothing about consent, or any guidelines for its usage on the #fediverse.

                                                                                                  The owner is @andro_abhi - who has a profile, but nothing about their bot really posted anywhere (other than they are the owner of this #aiagent).

                                                                                                  IMO - it looks like a #fediblock to me... At least that is my approach to it for now. I also think it's time the #fediadmins to get together and try to build a consistent set of guidelines around AI usage on the fediverse.

                                                                                                          Groups and topics, community rules, decision-making (from quick polls through structured consensus to weighted score voting, where an objection can count for more than an approval), events, shared organisation profiles, announcements.

                                                                                                          A ready-to-use space you can then take apart: add what's missing, fork what almost fits, switch off what you don't need.

Their readers crowdfunded the project, which included a reboot of the magazine and a new community space. Now every publisher can benefit. What one community funds, every community inherits.

Readers reply with an account they already have, on Bonfire, Mastodon, anywhere. The thread lives on your server, and you can take it with you. Details: bonfirenetworks.org/telling/

Groups work within a server and don't federate yet. We're designing that in the open with the W3C groups task force, because we'd rather it work across the whole fediverse than ship a dialect only Bonfire speaks.

                                                                                                          Want to poke at it? Groups are live on the campground, our open test instance. Make an account and try it out: campground.bonfire.cafe

Vordergrund: Auf der linken Seite ist der Mann mit Brille, Basecap und In-Ear-Kopfhörer im Profil/Dreiviertelprofil zu sehen, der skeptisch zur Seite blickt. Davor hält er seine erhobene Faust ins Bild, auf deren Handgelenk ein kleines hebräisches Tattoo zu sehen ist.

Hintergrund & Wahlplakat: Im Hintergrund steht ein großes blau-weißes Wahlplakat mit dem Gesicht eines Politikers im Anzug, der ebenfalls eine geballte Faust zeigt, begleitet vom englischen Slogan „MAKE TAICHUNG BEST EVER“ und chinesischen Schriftzeichen. Ein gelber Pfeil deutet von rechts auf dieses Plakat.

Straßenszene: Das Selfie wurde an einer sonnigen Kreuzung aufgenommen, auf der mehrere Motorroller- und Autofahrer unterwegs sind. Im Hintergrund sind Gebäude, Straßenbeschilderungen und Ampeln zu erkennen.

The old Pentium II System was just a bit loud in my living room and power consumption was also respectable.
                                                                                                                            This snac instance now runs on a fully off-grid solar powered mini pc with an Intel N4100 CPU.
                                                                                                                            With TurboBoost disabled, it consumes only 1,5-2,5W in idle, and max 6-7W under heavy load.
                                                                                                                            Beside this snac instance, the Mini PC also hosts (as id did in a cluster before) my personal website https://deltalima.org

                                                                                                                                  You see, I hadn't included it in my recent HowTo, a cookbook style tutorial on Browsers in Linux, or rather, how to install a boatload of them, and all kinds of them. I even went so far to include one produced and maintained by a company that I literally loathe (and even taught their official MCSE curriculum for them starting back in the mid 90's)...

                                                                                                                                  But I left out dillo. I was tired, and truth be told, it really isn't easy authoring these types of technical publications - you literally need to go through each item on a VM you spin up and take it step by step to make sure that when a neophyte comes around and wants ot simply copypasta your instructions - they can do that, and it will work.

                                                                                                                                  So anyway, the devs over at the dillo project posted on the Fediverse and I immediately was guilt-ridden for not including them. So I went and started to edit my earlier HowTo; I came out about 5k characters over count (and I think my server's already configured for 12K chars).

                                                                                                                                  Anyway, long story short, here's one of my latest contributions to the community, specifically, one that's published in the first and foremost. It includes almost every browser you've probably ever used, and certainly, many you probably haven't.

                                                                                                                                  I had to Quote-Post my original so it's kinda kewl with an entry point starting with dillo. I think that's pretty awesome, and it quotes the original (part I if you will) that starts with Vivaldi.

                                                                                                                                  I don't usually ask, but especially with respect to this HowTo/Tutorial, the more people that boost it, the further it will reach, and the more people it can benefit. Give it a gander and if you think others will find portions of it advantageous... well, feel free to boost it.

                                                                                                                                  So without further ado, Here's the link to the Linux Browser HowTo

                                                                                                                                        Drop in your Strava export files, it decompresses the .fit.gz files, splits everything into correctly-sized ZIP batches, and hands them back for upload. No install, no server, runs entirely in your browser.

                                                                                                                                        👉 🏃🏻‍♀️ vast-ch.github.io/strava-archi

                                                                                                                                                                      littleFedi, like many social platforms, had both a strength and a limit. Posts, by their nature, are ephemeral. They get published, federated (unless local-only, which littleFedi handles) and then, over time, lost. Partly through self-deletion, partly through their normal blending in with the thousands of other posts that pile up over time. Sometimes, though, we want something to stay. And not just stay as a social post, but as an actual blog. A bit like with BSSG, I had thought it would be convenient to have a minimal system. Not to compete with WordPress or other solutions, but to have a small blog, integrated into littleFedi, that would produce and serve a blog updated every now and then, whenever the person writing felt like doing it.

                                                                                                                                                                      And that's why the blog option was born.

                                                                                                                                                                      The idea is simple: when you write a post, from the web UI or from the CLI, there's a checkbox, "blog post". If you check it, that post stops being just a status that will scroll past and disappear. littleFedi renders it into a real static site. No JavaScript, just HTML and CSS, an Atom feed, tag pages, a chronological archive. Nothing exotic, nothing that needs maintenance five years from now.

                                                                                                                                                                      The blog isn't a parallel system you have to feed separately. It's not an export, not an import, not a bridge to some other CMS. The post you wrote is the blog post. Same database, same act of writing, still boostable, still repliable, still part of the conversation on the fediverse side. The blog is just a second representation of the same content, generated automatically. Every time you create, edit, or delete a blog post, the whole static site for your account gets rebuilt from scratch, and the new version replaces the old one atomically, so nobody ever lands on a half-built page. If the build fails, the previous version stays in place. Simple, but it has to work reliably, or the whole idea is pointless.

                                                                                                                                                                      That's the core of it: two representations of the same post. As a status, it lives in the fediverse, interactive, part of the conversation, subject to replies and boosts like anything else. As a static page, it lives on the web, durable, indexable, with a permalink, something an RSS reader can hold onto. You don't have to decide in advance which posts deserve to last. You write normally, and if something turns out to be worth keeping, you flag it, and it gets its own page.

                                                                                                                                                                      One detail I cared about while thinking this through: the generated site has to be self-contained. When littleFedi builds it, media gets copied or hard-linked into the generated directory - images, audio, video. If it's stored on S3, it keeps its public URL directly. Either way, the point is that the site on disk doesn't depend on the instance staying up. If the server goes down tomorrow, the blog files are still a complete, working website. That wasn't an afterthought, it was one of the requirements from the start.

                                                                                                                                                                      Not every account gets a blog, and that's intentional. The instance admin has to enable the feature globally ([blog] enabled = true), and then grant it per account. It's not meant to be a CMS, and I didn't want it to become one. Blog posts can't be replies, can't be boosts, have to be public and top-level. These are constraints, not missing features: the blog is for your own writing, not for threads or reshared content.

                                                                                                                                                                      There's no JavaScript anywhere in the generated site. That was deliberate too. It loads fast, it works offline if you cache it, and it will still render correctly in ten years without anyone having to update a dependency.

                                                                                                                                                                      In the end, the blog option doesn't ask you to choose between writing socially and writing something permanent. You keep writing the way you always do, on littleFedi, and if a post is worth keeping, you check a box. No separate platform, no migration, no vendor lock-in. Just your own posts, some of them rendered into a small static site you can host anywhere, built out of something that already existed on the open web.
