Kleines Fediverse-Wunder von heute Nacht: Ich folge jemandem auf einer Pixelfed-Instanz, antworte via Mastodon, die Person sieht es in Misskey. Drei verschiedene Apps, drei verschiedene Server – und alles klappt einfach so.

Das fühlt sich immer noch wie Magie an. Gute alte, dezentrale, niemand-gehört-das Magie. 🌐✨

            Hi. The specification just says that, for an edited post, an updated attribute must be set to the latest modification date, and an Update activity to the modified Note object be sent out there. There are no provisions for a history of changes or a modification reason that I know of.

              Say, how are edits to posts managed? Is there any indication an edit happened, a way to see the original\previous versions or to add an explanation for the changes that's not just a "Edit: x-y-z" line?

              I suppose this might more a question for the tag tho'.

                  With the news of the secret $100 million investment in Bluesky by Bain, I keep thinking about protocols.

                  Maybe the perceived "drawbacks" of are ultimately strengths?

                  handles identity in a way that allows a single sign-in across apps. But wouldn't this make it easier to profile you? Is this why crypto VCs are so attracted to it?

                  And ATproto has funding in the 100s of millions by VCs but at some point they'll want to turn a profit. There is ZERO pressure here to ensh*tt*fy

                        A quick note on Nolto.
                        On 15 March 2026 its creator Jonathan Tensetti intentionally closed the service and deleted his Fediverse account.
                        What he built - Europe’s second decentralised LinkedIn alternative on ActivityPub - was gloriously vibecoded but effective. It showed, with hard data and testimonials, that the demand for a sovereignty-respecting professional platform is real.
                        I had been working in parallel: detailed research on technical choices, product mechanics, business-model viability under distributed/FOSS conditions, and how to test everything in practice for such a product. Nothing yolo — but nothing yet proven in production either. Jonathan precluded me by just yolo'ing the Nolto MVP. Thanks for that.
                        To move from proven demand to a solid, maintainable product I need proper capital, runway and possibly 1-2 additional people.
                        I'm looking for European-aligned funding - preferably from Germany, Poland or Denmark - networks that value independence and data protection without the usual bureaucratic overhead.
                        If you know the right people in those circles, please connect me with them before the current momentum fades.
                        Serious replies and boosts appreciated.

                                I've just published version 2.91 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

                                Fixed some local posts not being shown if the replied post is deleted.

                                Fixed web UI incorrect links to public posts for some configurations.

                                Fixed encoding bug in Mastodon-style share links.

                                Fixed an error that made imposible to leave empty the following hashtags or blocked hashtags from the web UI.

                                Include post attachments in the RSS feed entries.

                                Added some OpenBSD-specific documentation (contributed by oxzi).

                                Fixed some timezones (contributed by matoken).

                                Fixed some crashes (special thanks to Louis Merlin for helping me with this).

                                Updated Docker scripts to avoid generating a useless log file.

                                Fixed several memory leaks, key generation errors and HTML inconsistencies (contributed by dandelions).

                                Added ostatus.org and FEP-3b86 data to Webfinger objects.

                                Added a new CONTRIBUTING.md file. Among other guidelines, I explicitly say there that AI contributions are NOT accepted.

                                snac is now available as a Yunohost app. Thank you very much to Bruno Cesar Rocha for this.

                                              Meet Fedibook!

                                              The idea came from thinking about what it actually takes to get regular users onto the fediverse. Mastodon is great (i love it), but the follow-based model feels unfamiliar to some. Friends and Groups though — that's something everyone already understands.

                                              So Fedibook is a fediverse platform built around exactly that, using ActivityPub. Think federated address book meets social network, with the kind of social graph people are already used to.

                                              Current status:

                                              - Friend requests across servers working
                                              - News feed working, with visibility levels: public, friends-only, or local server only

                                              Hoping to open up for early testing and feedback soon. Open source of course.

                                                "pretty" boils down to de-facto standard, or rather it became a sorta kinda requirement by means of post-facto . In other words: Who comes first, and popularizes some custom app-specific extension, becomes owner of that part of the spec that is now considered protocol-native.

                                                is app-specific too. Or Microblogging domain-specific perhaps, albeit implicitly then.

                                                When it comes to considering it standard, we talk about accepting protocol decay. Specifically:

                                                - Considering the way account profiles are handled to be part of the protocol.
                                                - To handle special control words (or just ) in the profile text.

                                                    Am I overreacting? The server @tags.pub takes every of my toots that contain any hashtag, and boost it using an account that has the name of said hashtag.

                                                    If I want to follow a hashtag, there is native feature for that within mastodon / activity pub. So my knee jerk reaction is that this is some shady click harvesting. Or?

                                                        A lot of improvements have also been made to the relay, especially around Bloom filter performance, that are not always reflected in app changelogs.

                                                                                Now if you’re not familiar with Elgg, it’s one of the first ever open source social media platforms. It launched all the way back in 2004 and was founded by @ben and Dave Tosh.

                                                                                I remember installing Elgg 15 years ago, playing around with it for a bit, and not doing much with it because there wasn’t anyone I knew who used it. So ActivityPub will definitely extend its network effect.

                                                                                  I'm glad to announce the release of version 2.70 of , the simple, minimalistic instance server written in C. It includes the following changes:

                                                                                  Notifications are now shown in a more compact way (i.e. all reactions are shown just above your post, instead of repeating the post ad nauseam for every reaction).

                                                                                  New command-line option unmute to, well, no-longer-mute an actor.

                                                                                  The private timeline now includes an approximate mark between new posts and "already seen" ones.

                                                                                  Fixed a spurious 404 error in the instance root URL for some configurations.
